  1. Check Active Air Flap system

The active air flap system may not operate normally if the air flap is temporarily opened due to foreign factors or if the controller is contaminated by snow or rain, etc.

When the message appears on the display, stop the vehicle in a safe place and check the status of the air flap. Clear any foreign material as necessary.

Start the vehicle after addressing any issue and waiting 10 minutes. If the message remains up, have your vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.

NOTE

  • Even if the warning message is not displayed, if the air flaps are visually asymmetrical (vehicles with exposed flap applied), turn off the vehicle and restart after about 10 minutes to inspect the air flap.

  • The active air flap system is actuated by motors. Do not disturb actuation or apply force excessively. It may cause failure.

NOTE

Active air flap system could activated regardless of the vehicle condition.(Parking, driving, charging, etc.)
