When you paint, apply heat treatment to the vehicle as a result of an accident, and/or weld on the vehicle, the performance of the high voltage battery can be reduced.

If heat treatment is required, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized Kia dealer and have the high voltage battery removed, prior to any repairs.

When you clean the motor compartment, do not use high pressure water to wash. This may cause an electric shock due to a discharge in high voltage electricity, or damage the vehicle's electric system.

Use, modify, or install only genuine parts or those of an equivalent standard. If not, this may damage the electric power system. Kia Genuine Parts are guaranteed for quality and performance.
