mately 3 seconds if the system is operat-
ing normally.
If the EPB malfunction indicator remains
on, comes on while driving, or does not
come on when the ENGINE START/
STOP button is changed to the ON posi-
tion, this indicates that the EPB may
have malfunctioned.
If this occurs, have your vehicle checked
by a professional workshop as soon as
possible. Visit an authorized Kia dealer.
The EPB malfunction indicator may
appear when the ESC indicator comes
on to indicate that the ESC is not work-
ing properly, but it does not indicate a
malfunction of the EPB.
