僅 Tilt And Telescopic Steering Wheel - Kia EV9 2024 Manual

Features of your vehicle
僅 A motor noise may be heard when the
vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving
speed.
僅 When the charging system warning
light comes on due to low voltage
(when the alternator or battery does
not operate normally or malfunc -
tions), the steering wheel may require
increased steering effort.
僅 If the vehicle needs to be jump started
due to battery discharge, the steering
wheel may not function normally. This
is a temporary situation caused by low
battery voltage. It will be resolved
once the battery is charged. Check for
normal steering function by turning
the steering wheel slowly before driv -
ing the vehicle.
僅 The steering effort can suddenly
increase if the operation of the EPS
system is stopped to prevent serious
accidents when EPS control unit
detects a malfunction of the EPS sys -
tem by self-diagnosis.
If the EPS does not operate normally, the
warning light will appear on the instru -
ment cluster. The steering wheel may
become difficult to control or operate
abnormally. In this case, have the system
inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
When you operate the steering wheel in
low temperatures, the steering effort
may be high an abnormal noise could
occur. If temperature rises, the noise will
disappear. This is a normal condition.
When the vehicle is stationary, and the
steering wheel is turned all the way to
the left or right continuously, the steer -
ing wheel becomes harder to turn. The
power assist is limited to protect the
motor from overheating.

As time passes, the steering wheel will
return to its normal condition.
Tilt and telescopic steering wheel

before you drive.

while permitting you to see the instru -
ment panel warning lights and gauges.
