(Electronic Stability
Control)
The ESC indicator will illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned
ON, but should go off after approxi-
mately 3 seconds. When the ESC is

under normal driving conditions, the

pery or low traction condition is
encountered, the ESC will operate,
and the ESC indicator will blink to
indicate the ESC is operating.
If the ESC indicator stays on, the
ESC may have a malfunction. Take
your car to an authorized Kia dealer
and have the system checked.

nate when the ignition switch is

Features of your vehicle
Low tire pressure telltale
The low tire pressure telltale comes
on for 3 seconds after the ignition
key is turned to the "ON" position.
If the warning light does not come
on, or continuously remains on after
coming on for about 3 seconds when
you turned the ignition key to the
"ON" position, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System is not working
properly. If this occurs, have your
vehicle checked by an Kia authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
This warning light will also illuminate
if one or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. You should
stop and check your tires as soon as
possible. If the warning light illumi-
nates while driving, reduce vehicle
speed immediately and stop the
vehicle.
Avoid hard braking and overcorrect-
ing at the steering wheel. Inflate the
tires to the proper pressure as indi-
cated on the vehicle's tire information
placard.
