Fuses

A vehicle's electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has two fuse panels,
one located in the driver's side, the
other in the engine compartment.
The diesel engine has more one fuse
panel which located in the engine
compartment near the washer tank
reservior.
If any of your vehicle's lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver's side
Blown
fuse panel.
Always replace a blown fuse with
one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult an Authorized Kia
Blown
Dealer.

Fuse replacement

WARNING
- Fuse replace-
ment
• Never replace a fuse with any-
thing but another fuse of the
same rating.
• A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage through over-
heating and possibly a fire.
• Never install a wire instead of
the proper fuse - even as a
temporary repair. It may cause
extensive wiring damage and
possibly a fire.
• Do not use a screwdriver or
any other metal object to
remove fuses because it may
cause a short circuit and dam-
age the system.
