Inner panel fuse replacement

Turn the ignition switch and all other switches off.
Open the fuse panel cover.
Pull the suspected fuse straight out. Use the removal tool provided in the main fuse box in the engine compartment.
Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.

Spare fuses are provided in the instrument panel fuse panel (or in the engine compartment fuse panel).
Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips.

If it fits loosely, consult a professional workshop. Kia recommends to consult an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.

If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of the same rating from a circuit you may not need for operating the vehicle, such as the cigarette lighter fuse.

If the headlights or taillights, stoplights, courtesy lamp, day time running lights (D.R.L) do not work and the fuses are OK, check the fuse panel in the engine compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must be replaced.

Memory fuse

Your vehicle is equipped with a memory fuse to prevent battery discharge if your vehicle is parked without being operated for prolonged periods. Use the following procedures before parking the vehicle for prolonged periods.

Turn off the engine.
Turn off the headlights and tail lights.
Open the driver’s side panel cover and pull up the memory fuse.

NOTICE

If the memory fuse is pulled up from the fuse panel, the warning chime, audio, clock and interior lamps, etc., will not operate. Some items must be reset after replacement. Refer to More Details.
Even when the memory fuse is pulled up, the battery can still be discharged by operation of the headlights or other electrical devices.
