STEERING WHEEL
Electric power steering
Power steering uses the motor to as‐sist you in steering the vehicle. If the
engine is off or if the power steering
system becomes inoperative, the vehi‐ cle may still be steered, but it will re‐
quire increased steering effort.
The motor driven power steering is
controlled by the power steering con‐ trol unit which senses the steering
wheel torque, steering wheel position
and vehicle speed to command the mo‐ tor.
The steering wheel becomes heavier as
the vehicle’s speed increases and be‐
comes lighter as the vehicle’s speed de‐ creases for better control of the steer‐
ing wheel.
Should you notice any change in the ef‐
fort required to steer during normal ve‐ hicle operation, have the system
checked by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
•The EPS warning light does not il‐
luminate.
•The steering effort is high imme‐
diately after turning the ignition
switch on. This happens as the
system performs the EPS system
diagnostics. When the diagnostics
is completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
•A click noise may be heard from
the EPS relay after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON or LOCK
position.
•Motor noise may be heard when
the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.

•If the Electric Power Steering Sys‐
tem does not operate normally,
the warning light will illuminate on
the instrument cluster. The steer‐
ing wheel may become difficult to
control or operate abnormally. In
this case, have the system inspec‐
ted by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an au‐
thorized Kia dealer/service part‐
ner.
•The steering effort increases if
the steering wheel is rotated con‐
tinuously when the vehicle is not
in motion. However, after a few
minutes, it will return to its normal
conditions.
•When you operate the steering
wheel in low temperature, abnor‐
mal noise could occur. If tempera‐
ture rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.
