The temperature of the motor is high

When the high voltage battery level is low.
When the warning light turns ON, charge the battery immediately.
Regenerative brake warning light 
(Red color) 
(Yellow color)
When the regenerative brake does not operate and the brake does not perform well. This causes the Brake Warning light (red) and Regenerative Brake Warning Light (yellow) to appear simultaneously.
In this case, drive safely and have the vehicle inspected by a professional workshop. Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner..
The operation of the brake pedal may be more difficult than normal, and the braking distance can increase, as it may default to manual hydraulic mode.
