Warning lights / audible indi-
cators

Checking operation

All warning lights are checked by
turning the ignition switch ON (do not
start the engine). Any light that does
not illuminate should be checked by
an Authorized Kia Dealer.
After starting the engine, check to
make sure that all warning lights are
off. If any are still on, this indicates a
situation that needs attention. When
releasing the parking brake, the
brake system warning light should go
off. The fuel warning light will stay on
if the fuel level is low.

Anti-lock brake sys-
tem (ABS) warning
light (if equipped)

This light illuminates if the key is
turned to ON and goes off in approx-
imately 3 seconds if the system is
operating normally.
If the light stays on, you may have a
problem with your ABS system.
Contact an authorized Kia dealer as
soon as possible.

Electronic brake force
distribution (EBD)
system warning light
(if equipped)

If two warning lights illumi-
nate at the same time
while driving, your vehicle
has a problem with ABS
and EBD system.

In this case, your ABS system and
regular brake system may not work
normally. Have the vehicle checked
by an Authorized Kia Dealer as soon
as possible.

your vehicle’s brake system will

In this case,

avoid high speed driving and
abrupt braking. Have your vehi-
cle checked by Authorized Kia
Dealer as soon as possible.
