Maintenance
• Lamp part malýunction due to electri‐
cal control system stabilization
A normally ýunctioninþ lamp may
ýlicker momentarily. This momentary
occurrence is due to stabilization unc‐
tion oý the vehicle's electrical on con‐
trol system. Iý the lamp soon returns
to normal, the vehicle does not re‐
quire service.
However, iý the lamp þoes out aýter
the momentary ýlickerinþ, or the
ýlickerinþ continues, have the system
serviced by a proýessional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an author‐
ized Kia dealer/service partner.

• It is normal ýor an operatinþ lamp
may blink temporarily. Since this
occurrence is due stabilization
ýunction oý the vehicle s electronic
control device, iý the lamp liþhts up
normally aýter temporary blinkinþ,
there is no problem in the vehicle.
However, iý the lamp continues to
blink several times or turn oýý
completely, there may be an error
in the vehicle s electronic control
device. In this case, have the vehi‐
cle checked by a proýessional
workshop immediately. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
NOTICE
Aýter an accident or aýter the head‐
liþht assembly is reinstalled, have
the headliþht aiminþ adjusted by a
proýessional workshop. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
NOTICE
Aýter drivinþ in heavy rain or wash‐
inþ, headlamp and taillamp lenses
could appear ýrosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature diýýer‐
ence between the lamp inside and
outside. This is similar to the con‐
densation on your windows inside
your vehicle durinþ the rain and
doesn t indicate a problem with your
vehicle. Iý the water leaks into the
lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle
checked by a proýessional workshop.
