TCS ON/OFF MODE

In the TCS ON mode, the indicator in the
instrument cluster will not be illuminated.
The indicator will illuminate when the
ignition key is turned to the “ON”
position, but it should go off after 3
seconds. It means the TCS is in the stand-
by status and at the moment of the actual
operation of the TCS, the indicator will
blink.
To switch to TCS OFF mode, press the
TCS switch. System will be deactivated
and the TCS indicator in the instrument
cluster will illuminate.

If the TCS indicator stays on in the TCS
ON mode, take your car to your
Authorized Kia Dealer and have the
system checked.

NOTICE

• The TCS ON mode is activated

automatically when the engine is
started.

• When the TCS is operating

properly, you may feel a slight
pulsation in the vehicle. This is
only the effect of brake control
and is not unusual.

• When the engine starts, your

may hear a “click” sound from
the engine compartment. This is
only the sound of the TCS being
checked.

• When moving out of mud or

fresh snow with the TCS ON,
pressing the accelerator pedal
may not cause the engine speed
to increase.
