Maintenance
• A higher capacity fuse could cause
damage and possibly a fire.
• Never install a wire or aluminum
foil instead of the proper fuse
even as a temporary repair. It may
cause extensive wiring damage
and a possible fire.
• Do not arbitrarily modify or addon
electric wiring of the vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses
because it may cause a short circuit
and damage the system.
NOTICE
• When replacing fuse, turn the
ignition "OFF" and turn off
switches of all electrical devices
then remove battery (-) terminal.
• The actual fuse/relay panel label
may differ from equipped items.
CAUTION
• When replacing a blown fuse or
relay with a new one, make sure
the new fuse or relay fits tightly
into the clips. The incomplete
fastening fuse or relay may cause
the vehicle wiring and electric
systems damage and a possible
fire.
• Do not remove fuses, relays
and terminals fastened with
bolts or nuts. The fuses, relays
and terminals may be fastened
incompletely, and it may cause
a possible fire. If fuses, relays
and terminals fastened with
bolts or nuts are blown, consult
a professional workshop. Kia
recommends to consult an
authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
• Do not input any other objects
except fuses or relays into fuse/
relay terminals such as a driver
or wiring. It may cause contact
failure and system malfunction.
• Do not plug in screwdrivers or
aftermarket wiring into the
terminal originally designed for
fuse and relays only. The electrical
system and wiring of the vehicle
interior may be damaged or
burned due to contact failure.
• If you directly connect the wire
on the taillight or replace the
bulb which is over the regulated
capacity to install trailers etc.,
the inner junction block can get
burned.
CAUTION
Visually inspect the battery cap to
ensure it is securely closed. If the
battery cap is not securely closed,
moisture may enter the system and
damage the electrical components.
