Turn signals and lane change
signals
The ignition switch must be on for the
turn signals to function. To turn on the turn signals, move the lever up or down
(A). The green arrow indicators on the
instrument panel indicate which turn signal is operating. They will self-cancel
after a turn is completed. If the indica‐
tor continues to flash after a turn, manually return the lever to the OFF
position.
To signal a lane change, move the turn
signal lever slightly and hold it in posi‐ tion (B). The lever will return to the OFF
position when released. If an indicator stays on and does not
flash or if it flashes abnormally, one of the turn signal bulbs may be burned
out and will require replacement.
One-touch lane change function (if
equipped)
To activate an one-touch lane change
function, move the turn signal lever slightly for less than 0.7 second and
then release it. The lane change signals
will blink 3 times.
NOTICE
If an indicator flash is abnormally
quick or slow, a bulb may be burned
out or have a poor electrical connec‐
tion in the circuit.
Rear fog light (if equipped)
To turn the rear fog lights on, turn the
headlight switch to the headlight on position and turn the rear fog light
switch (1) to the ON position.
The rear fog lights turn on when the
rear fog light switch is turned on after the headlight switch is in the parklight
position.
To turn the rear fog lights off, turn the
rear fog light switch to the on position again or turn the headlight switch off.

•Lamp part malfunction due to electri‐cal control system stabilization
A normally functioning lamp may
flicker momentarily. This momentary occurrence is due to stabilization unc‐
tion of the vehicle's electrical on con‐
trol system. If the lamp soon returns
to normal, the vehicle does not re‐
quire service.
However, if the lamp goes out after he momentary flickering, or the flick‐
ering continues, we recommend the
system be serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer.
NOTICE
•If the light bulb or lamp connector
is removed from an operating
lamp activated by electricity, the
fuse box’s electronic device may
scan it as a malfunction. There‐
fore, a lamp malfunction history
may be recorded in Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) in the fuse
box.

•It is normal for an operating lamp
may blink temporarily. Since this
occurrence is due stabilization
function of the vehicle’s electronic
control device, if the lamp lights up
normally after temporary blinking,
there is no problem in the vehicle.
However, if the lamp continues to
blink several times or turn off
completely, there may be an error
in the vehicle’s electronic control
device. So we recommend that
you have the vehicle checked by
an authorized Kia dealer immedi‐
ately.
NOTICE
We recommend that the headlight
aiming be adjusted after an accident
or after the headlight assembly is
reinstalled at an authorized Kia deal‐
er.
NOTICE
After driving in heavy rain or wash‐
ing, headlamp and tail lamp lenses
could appear frosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature differ‐
ence between the lamp inside and
outside. This is similar to the con‐
densation on your windows inside
your vehicle during the rain and
doesn’t indicate a problem with your
vehicle. If the water leaks into the
lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
