ECO indicator (if equipped)
The ECO indicator is displayed if you
drive fuel to help you improve fuel effi-
ciency
• The ECO indicator (green) will turn on
when you drive fuel efficiently in the
ECO ON mode. If you don't want the
indicator displayed, you can turn the
ECO ON mode to OFF mode by press-
ing the TRIP button.
• When the instant fuel consumption
mode (if equipped) is displayed on the
LCD display or the system is not work-
ing properly, the indicator turns off. If
the indicator turns off when the instant
fuel consumption mode is not selected,
have the system checked by an author-
ized KIA dealer as soon as possible.
• The fuel efficiency depends on the dri-
ver's driving habit and road condition.
• The system stops operating when the
transaxle is in the P (Park), R
(Reverse), N (Neutral) position or
sports mode, or when the instant fuel
consumption mode is selected.

If the warning illuminates while the vehi-
cle is in motion:
1. Drive to the nearest safe location.
2. With the engine off, check the genera-
tor drive belt for looseness or break-

lem exists somewhere in the electrical

while driving. It will distract you
while driving and cause an acci-
