Jump starting procedure
✽✽
NOTICE
If the battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a battery
of another vehicle and two jumper
cables. Only use jumper cables with
fully insulated clamp handles.
To prevent personal injury or dam-
age to both vehicles, adhere strictly
to the following procedure.
1.Make sure the booster battery is 12-volt and that its negative termi-
nal is grounded.
2.If the booster battery is in another vehicle, do not allow the vehicles totouch.
3.Turn off all unnecessary electrical loads.
4.Connect the jumper cables in the exact sequence shown in the illus-
tration. First connect one end of a
jumper cable to the positive termi-
nal of the discharged battery (1),then connect the other end to the
positive terminal on the booster
battery (2). Proceed to connect
one end of the other jumper cable
to the negative terminal of the
booster battery (3), then the other
end to a solid, stationary, metallic
point (for example, the engine lift-
ing bracket) away from the battery
(4). Do not connect it to or near any
part that moves when the engine is
cranked. Make sure that there is no
contact between the bodywork of
the two vehicles; otherwise, there
is the danger of short circuits.(Continued)
The battery may rupture orexplode when you jump start
with a low or frozen battery.

(see the example) ❈ The actual battery label in the vehicle may
differ from the illustration.
1. CMF60L-BCI : The Kia model name of battery
2. 12V : The nominal voltage
3. 60Ah(20HR) : The nominal capac- ity (in Amperehours)
4. 92RC : The nominal reserve
capacity (in min.)
5. 550CCA : The cold-test current in amperes by SAE
6. 440A : The cold-test current in
amperes by EN Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged
in a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on whilst the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load whilst
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours.

Maintenance
FUSESA vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 3 (or 4) fuse panels,
one located in the driver’s side panel
bolster, others in the engine com-
partment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside thefuse will be melted.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver’s sidefuse panel.
Always replace a blown fuse with
one of the same rating.
Before replacing a blown fuse, dis-
connect the negative battery cable.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult a professional work-
shop. Kia recommends to consult an
authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
Three kinds of fuses are used: bladetype for lower amperage rating, car-tridge type, and multi fuse type for higher amperage ratings.
WARNING - Fuse
replacement
Never replace a fuse with any- thing but another fuse of the same rating.
A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a
fire.
Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair. It
may cause extensive wiring
damage and a possible fire.
Do not arbitrarily modify or add-on electric wiring of the
vehicle.
