WARNING - Fuse replace-
ment
 Never replace a fuse with any- thing but another fuse of the same rating.
 A higher capacity fuse could cause damage through over-
heating and possibly a fire.
 Never install a wire instead of the proper fuse - even as a
temporary repair. It may cause
extensive wiring damage and
possibly a fire.
 Do not use a screwdriver or any other metal object to
remove fuses because it may
cause a short circuit and dam-
age the system.

When your vehicle is being
towed by another vehicle
other than a tow truck (in case
of an emergency)
 Turn the ignition switch to ACC so
the steering wheel isn’t locked.
 Place the transaxle shift lever in N (Neutral).
 Release the parking bake.
 Vehicles equipped with automatic transaxles should not exceed 45 km/h (28 mph) and should not be
towed more than 80 km (50 miles).
 Vehicles equipped with manual transaxle should not be towed in
excess of 88 km/h (55 mph) and
should not be towed more than645 km (400 miles).  Press the brake pedal with more
force than normal since you will
have reduced brake performance.
 More steering effort will be required because the power steer-
ing system will be disabled.
 If you are driving down a long hill, the brakes may overheat and brake
performance will be reduced. Stop
often and let the brakes cool off.
✽✽ NOTICE
To prevent internal damage to the
transaxle, never tow your vehicle
from the rear (backwards) with all
four tires in contact with the sur-face.
Tips for towing a stuck vehicle
The following methods are effective
when your vehicle is stuck in mud,sand or similar substances that pre-
vent the vehicle from being driven
out under its own power.
 Remove the soil and sand, etc. from the front and the back of the
tires.
 Place a stone or wood under the tires.

Draining water from the fuel filter
 Place a water tray under the fuel fil-ter.
 Loosen the drain plug and drain water.
 After water is drained, securely tighten the drain plug.
 After starting the engine, check to make certain the fuel filter warning
light is off.

BATTERY
WARNING- Battery
dangers
Always read the follow-
ing instructions carefully

Keep lighted cigarettes and all other flames or
sparks away from the
battery.
Hydrogen, which is a highly combustible gas,
is always present in bat-
tery cells and may
explode if ignited.
Keep batteries out of the reach of children because batteries con-
tain highly corrosive
SULFURIC ACID. Do not
allow battery acid to con-
tact your skin, eyes,
clothing or paint finish.
(Continued)(Continued)If any electrolyte getsinto your eyes, flush your
eyes with clean water for
at least 15 minutes and
get immediate medical
attention. If possible,
continue to apply water
with a sponge or clothuntil medical attention isreceived.
If electrolyte gets on
your skin, thoroughlywash the contacted area.
If you feel a pain or a
burning sensation, getmedical attention imme-
diately.
Wear eye protection when charging or work-
ing near a battery.
Always provide ventila-
tion when working in an
enclosed space.
(Continued)(Continued)
 When lifting a plastic-casedbattery, excessive pressure on
the case may cause battery
acid to leak, resulting in per-
sonal injury. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
 Never attempt to charge the battery when the battery
cables are connected.
 The electrical ignition system works with high voltage.
Never touch these compo-nents with the engine running

BULB REPLACEMENT
Use only the bulbs of the specifiedwattage.
✽✽ NOTICE
If you don’t have necessary tools,
the correct bulbs and the expertise,
consult an Authorized Kia Dealer. In
many cases, it is difficult to replacevehicle light bulbs because other
parts of the vehicle must be removed
before you can get to the bulb. Thisis especially true if you have to
remove the front bumper to get tothe bulb(s). Removing/installing the
front bumper or bumper hardware
can result in damage to the vehicle.
Headlight bulb replacement
✽✽ NOTICE
After heavy, driving rain or washing, headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature differencebetween the lamp inside and outside.
This is similar to the condensation on
your windows inside your vehicleduring the rain and doesn’t indicate
a problem with your vehicle. If the
water leaks into the lamp bulb cir-
cuitry, have the vehicle checked by
an Authorized Kia Dealer.
