NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
When the ENGINE START/STOP
button is the ON position, the
steering wheel enters normal
operation mode after diagnosing
the Electric Power Steering sys-
tem (for about 3 seconds).
A click noise may be heard from
the EPS relay after turning the
ENGINE START/STOP button is
turned to the ON or OFF position.
If the steering wheel is operated
when the vehicle is not in motion
or driven at a low speed, you may
hear some noise.
If the Electronic Power Steering
system does not operate nor-
mally, the warning light will illumi-
nate or blink on the instrument
cluster. If the power assistance of
steering fails, you will need to use
more force to steer.
Operating the steering wheel at
lower temperatures may require
more force and accompany noise.
However, when the temperature
increases, it returns to normal.
Take your vehicle to an authorized
Kia dealer and have the vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
When the charging system warn-
ing light comes on due to the low
voltage (when the alternator or
battery does not operate nor-
mally or malfunctions), the steer-
ing wheel may require increased
steering effort.

system does not work or an error
occurs, the warning light on the
instrument panel may be turned on

In this case, please hold the steering
wheel more tightly than usual and
operate with greater force. And
then immediately pull your vehicle
over to a safe place and have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer.
If the EPS does not operate nor-
mally, the warning light will illumi-

steering wheel may become difficult
to control or operate abnormally. In
this case, have the system
inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
