Driving your vehicle
hard as possible to allow the ABS to con-
trol the force being delivered to the
brakes.
NOTICE
A click sound may be heard in the vehi-
cle compartment when the vehicle
begins to move after the vehicle is
started. These conditions are normal
and indicate that the Anti-lock Brake
System is functioning properly.
Even with the Anti-lock Brake System,
your vehicle still requires sufficient stop-
ping distance. Always maintain a safe
distance from the vehicle in front of you.
Always slow down when cornering. The
Anti-lock Brake System cannot prevent
accidents resulting from excessive
speeds.
On loose or uneven road surfaces, oper-
ation of the Anti-lock Brake System may
result in a longer stopping distance than
for vehicles equipped with a conven-
tional brake system.
The ABS warning light will stay on for
approximately 3 seconds after the
ENGINE START/STOP button is ON.
During that time, the ABS will go through
self diagnosis and the light will go off if
everything is normal. If the light stays on,
you may have a problem with your ABS.
In this case, have your vehicle inspected
by a professional workshop. Kia recom-
mends to contact an authorised Kia
dealer/service partner.
When you drive on a road having poor
traction, such as an icy road, and have
operated your brakes continuously, the
ABS will be active continuously and the
5
38
ABS warning light may illuminate. Pull
your vehicle over to a safe place and
stop the vehicle.
Restart the vehicle. If the ABS warning
light goes off, then your ABS is normal.
Otherwise, you may have a problem
with the ABS. Contact an authorised Kia
dealer as soon as possible.
NOTICE
When you jump start your vehicle
because of a drained battery, the vehicle
may not run as smoothly and the ABS
warning light may turn on at the same
time. This happens because of low bat-
tery voltage. It does not mean your ABS
has malfunctioned.
僅 Do not pump your brakes!
僅 Have the battery recharged before
driving the vehicle.
