Maintenance
It is normal for an operating lamp
to flicker momentarily. This is due
to a stabilization function of the
vehicle's electronic control device.
If the lamp lights up normally
after momentarily blinking, then
it is functioning as normal.
However, if the lamp continues to
flicker several times or turns off
completely, there may be an error
in the vehicle's electronic control
device. So we recommend that
you have the vehicle checked by
an authorised Kia dealer immedi-
ately.
NOTICE
We recommend that the headlight
aiming be adjusted by an authorised
Kia dealer after an accident or after
the headlight assembly is rein-
stalled.
NOTICE
You can find moisture inside the lens
of lamps after a car wash or driving
in the rain. It is a natural event
caused by the temperature differ-
ence between the inside and the
outside of the lamp and does not
mean a problem with its functions.
The moisture inside the lamp would
disappear if you drive the vehicle
with the headlamp turned on, how-
ever, the level at which the moisture
8 60
is removed may differ depending on
the size / location / condition of the
lamp. If the moisture continues to
stay inside the lamp, have the vehi-
cle checked by a professional work-
shop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorised Kia dealer/service part-
ner.
If you don't have the necessary
tools, the correct bulbs and the
expertise, consult a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit
an authorised Kia dealer/service
partner. In many cases, it is difficult
to replace vehicle light bulbs
because other parts of the vehicle
must be removed before you can
get to the bulb. This is especially
true if you have to remove the
headlamp assembly to get to the
bulb(s).
Removing/installing the headlamp
assembly can result in damage to
the vehicle. If non-genuine parts or
substandard bulbs are used, it may
lead to blowing a fuse or other wir-
ing damages.
Do not install extra lamps or LEDs to
the vehicle. If additional lights are
installed, it may lead to lamp mal-
functions and flickering. Addition-
ally, the fuse box and other writing
may be damaged.
