Maintenance
Light bulbs
Bulb replacement precaution
Please keep extra bulbs on hand with
appropriate wattage ratings in case of
emergencies.
Refer to "Bulb wattage" on page 8-4.
When changing lamps, first turn off the
engine at a safe place, firmly apply the
parking brake and detach the battery's
negative (-) terminal.
WARNING
Working on the lights
Prior to working on the light, firmly apply
the parking brake, ensure that the igni-
tion switch is turned to the LOCK posi-
tion and turn off the lights to avoid
sudden movement of the vehicle burns
to your skin or fingers, or an electric
shock.
Use only bulbs of the specified wattage.
CAUTION
Light replacement
Be sure to replace the burned out bulb
with one of the same wattage rating.
Otherwise, it may cause damage to the
fuse or electric wiring system.
CAUTION
Headlamp Lens
To prevent damage, do not clean the
headlamp lens with chemical solvents or
strong detergents.
僅 Lamp part malfunction due to net-
work failure
The headlamp, taillight, and fog light
may light up when the head lamp switch
is turned ON, and not light up when the
taillight or for light switch is turned ON.
This may be caused by network failure
or vehicle electrical control system mal-
function. If there is a problem, we rec-
ommend the system be serviced by an
authorized Kia dealer.
僅 Lamp part malfunction due to elec-
trical control system stabilization
A normally functioning lamp may flicker
momentarily. This momentary occur-
rence is due to the stabilization function
of the vehicle's electrical control system.
If the lamp stops flickering after a few
moments, the vehicle does not require
service.
However, if the lamp goes out after the
momentary flickering, or the flickering
continues, we recommend the system
be serviced by an authorized Kia dealer.
NOTICE
僅 If the light bulb or lamp connector is
removed while the lamp is still on, the
fuse box's electronic system may log
it as a malfunction. Therefore, a lamp
malfunction incident may be recorded
as a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in
the fuse box.
僅 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 nor-
mal.
However, if the lamp continues to
flicker several times or turns off com-
pletely, there may be an error in the
vehicle's electronic control device.
Please have the vehicle checked by
an authorized Kia dealer immediately.
