4. Push in a new fuse of the same rat-
ing, and make sure it fits tightly in
the clips.
If it fits loosely, consult an
Authorized Kia Dealer.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of
the same rating from a circuit you may
not need for operating the vehicle, such
as the radio or clock (Room) fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical com-
ponents do not work and the fuses are
OK, check the fuse box in the engine
compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must
be replaced as below.
1. Turn the ignition switch and all other

2. Remove the fuse box cover by
turning the plastic knob located in the

3. Check the fuses. If one is blown,
replace it with a new one of the same
rating.
CAUTION :
After checking the fuse box in the
engine compartment, securely install
the fuse box cover. If the cover is not
installed correctly, water leakage
could cause electrical failures.
