Replacing inner panel fuse

1
Turn the START/STOP button and all other switches off.
2
Open the fuse panel cover.

To identify the location of a specific fuse, please refer to the inside of the fuse panel cover and the description list in this section.

3
Pull the suspected fuse straight out. Use the removal tool provided on the motor compartment fuse panel cover.
4
Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.

Spare fuses are provided in the motor compartment fuse panel.

5
Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips.

If it fits loosely, consult an authorized Kia dealer.

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 power outlet fuse.

If the head lamp, turn signal lamp, stop signal lamp, fog lamp, DRL, tail lamp, HMSL do not work and the fuses are OK, check the fuse panel in the motor compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must be replaced.

NOTICE

If the headlamp, fog lamp, turn signal lamp, or tail lamp malfunction even without any problem to the lamps, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Kia dealer for assistance.

CAUTION

Fuse Panel Covers

The contact points of the switches may wear out with excessive use. Please refrain from excessive use of the switches (except for long-term parking for over 1 month).

NOTICE

If the vehicle is going to be unused for over 1 month, set all switches to OFF to prevent the batteries from draining.
