Driving your vehicle
The vehicle in front is an oversizevehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.).
The camera's field of view is not well illuminated (either too dark or
too much reflection or too much
backlight that obscures the field of
view).
The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights or their rear lights
does not turned ON or their rear
lights are located unusually.
The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel.

reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road.
The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare or head
light of oncoming vehicle.

Recharging the battery
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged
in a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlamps or interior
lamps were left on while the vehi-
cle was not in use), recharge it by
slow charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours. When recharging the battery,
observe the following precautions:
The battery must be removed from
the vehicle and placed in an area
with good ventilation.
Do not allow cigarettes, sparks, or flame near the battery.
Watch the battery during charging, and stop or reduce the charging
rate if the battery cells begin
gassing (boiling) violently or if the
temperature of the electrolyte of
any cell exceeds 120°F (49°C).
Wear eye protection when check- ing the battery during charging.
Disconnect the battery charger in the following order.
1. Turn off the battery charger main switch.
2. Unhook the negative clamp from the negative battery terminal.
3. Unhook the positive clamp from the positive battery terminal. Before performing maintenance or
recharging the battery, turn off all
accessories and stop the engine.
The negative battery cable must be removed first and installed last
when the battery is disconnected.

3. Pull the suspected fuse straight
out. Use the removal tool provided
on the engine compartment fuse
panel cover.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
Spare fuses are provided in theengine compartment fuse panel.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly
in the clips.
If it fits loosely, consult an authorized
K900 Kia dealer.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of the same rating from a circuityou may not need for operating thevehicle, such as the cigarette lighterfuse.
If the headlights or taillights, stop-
lights, courtesy lamp, day time run-
ning lights (D.R.L) do not work and
the fuses are not blown, check the
fuse panel in the engine compart-
ment. If a fuse is blown, it must be
replaced.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
If the headlamp, turn signal lamp,
or tail lamp malfunction even with-
out any problem to the lamps, have
the vehicle checked by an author-
ized K900 Kia dealer for assistance.
Fuse switch
Always set the fuse switch to the ON
position before using the vehicle.
If you move the switch to the OFF
position, some items such as audio
and digital clock must be reset and
transmitter (or smart key) may not
work properly. When the switch is
Off, the caution indicator will be dis-
played on the instrument cluster.

LIGHT BULBS
Lamp (LED type) bulb replace-
ment
Only LED lamps are used in this
vehicle.
If the LED lamp does not operate,
have the vehicle checked by an
authorized K900 Kia dealer.
The LED lamp cannot be replaced
as a single component because it is
an integrated unit.The LED lamp has
to be replaced with the unit.
A skilled technician should check or
repair the license plate lamp (LED),
for it may damage related parts of
the vehicle.
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 fog light switch is
turned ON. This may be cause by
network failure or vehicle electrical
control system malfunction. If there is
a problem, we recommend the sys-
tem be serviced by an authorized
K900 Kia dealer.
trical control system stabilization
A normally functioning lamp may
flicker momentarily. This momentary
occurrence 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 flick-
ering continues, we recommend the
system be serviced by an authorized
K900 Kia dealer.
CAUTION -Headlamp
Lens
To prevent damage, do not clean the headlamp lens withchemical solvents or strongdetergents.

✽ ✽
NOTICE
• If the light bulb or lamp connector
is removed while the lamp is still
on, the fuse box's electronic sys-
tem may log it as a malfunction.
Therefore, a lamp malfunction
incident may be recorded as a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in
the fuse box.
• 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 normal.
However, if the lamp continues to
flicker several times or turns off
completely, there may be an error
in the vehicle’s electronic control
device. Please have the vehicle
checked by an authorized K900
Kia dealer immediately.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
We recommend that the headlight
aiming be adjusted after an accident
or after the headlight assembly is rein-
stalled at an authorized K900 Kia
dealer.
✽ ✽NOTICE
You can find moisture inside the lens
of lamps after a car wash or driving
in the rain. It is a natural event
caused by the temperature differ-
ence between the inside and the out-
side of the lamp and does not mean a
problem with its functions. The
moisture inside the lamp would dis-
appear if you drive the vehicle with
the headlamp turned on, however,
the level at which the moisture is
removed may differ depending on
the size/location/condition of the
lamp. If the moisture continues to
stay inside the lamp, have the vehicle
checked by an authorized K900 Kia
dealer.
If you don’t have the necessary tools,
the correct bulbs and the expertise,
consult an authorized K900 Kia deal-
er. In many cases, it is difficult to
replace vehicle light bulbs because
other parts of the vehicle must be
removed before you can get to the
bulb. This is especially true if you
have to remove the headlamp
assembly to get to the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the headlamp
assembly can result in damage to
the vehicle.
If non-genuine parts or substandard
bulbs are used, it may lead to blow-
ing a fuse or other wiring damages.
Do not install extra lamps or LEDs to
the vehicle. If additional lights are
installed, it may lead to lamp mal-
functions and flickering. Additionally,
the fuse box and other wiring may be
damaged.
