Maintenance
A normally ýunctioninþ lamp may ýlicker
momentarily. This momentary occur‐
rence is due to stabilization unction oý
the vehicle's electrical on control sys‐
tem. Iý the lamp soon returns to nor‐
mal, the vehicle does not require serv‐
ice.
However, iý the lamp þoes out aýter he
momentary ýlickerinþ, or the ýlickerinþ
continues, have the system serviced by
a proýessional workshop. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/
service partner.
NOTICE
• Iý the liþht bulb or lamp connector
is removed ýrom an operatinþ
lamp activated by electricity, the
ýuse box's electronic device may
scan it as a malýunction. There‐
ýore, a lamp malýunction history
may be recorded in Diaþnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) in the ýuse
box.

• It is normal ýor an operatinþ lamp
may blink temporarily. Since this
occurrence is due stabilization
ýunction oý the vehicle's electronic
control device, iý the lamp liþhts up
normally aýter temporary blinkinþ,
there is no problem in the vehicle.
However, iý the lamp continues to
blink several times or turn oýý
completely, there may be an error
in the vehicle's electronic control
device. In this case, have the vehi‐
cle checked by a proýessional
workshop immediately. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
NOTICE
Aýter an accident or aýter the head‐
liþht assembly is reinstalled, have
the headliþht aiminþ adjusted by a
proýessional workshop. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
NOTICE
Aýter drivinþ in heavy rain or wash‐
inþ, headlamp and taillamp lenses
could appear ýrosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature diýýer‐
ence between the lamp inside and
outside. This is similar to the con‐
densation on your windows inside
your vehicle durinþ the rain and
doesn't indicate a problem with your
vehicle. Iý the water leaks into the
lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle
checked by a proýessional workshop.

ized Kia dealer/service partner.
