Turn signals and lane change sig- nals
The ignition switch must be on for the
turn signals to function. To turn on the
turn signals, move the lever up or down
(A). The green arrow indicators on the
instrument panel indicate which turn sig-
nal is operating.They will self-cancel after a turn is com-

In case of product malfunction, please contact your place of pur-chase or After Service center.
Placing the audio system within an electromagnetic environment
may result in noise interference.CAUTION
Operating the device while driv- ing could lead to accidents due to
a lack of attention to external sur-roundings. First park the vehiclebefore operating the device.
Adjust the volume to levels that allow the driver to hear soundsfrom outside of the vehicle.Driving in a state where external sounds cannot be heard may lead
to accidents.
Pay attention to the volume set- ting when turning the device on.A sudden output of extreme vol-ume upon turning the device on
could lead to hearing impairment.(Adjust the volume to a suitablelevels before turning off the device.)

Fuelling systems and corresponding
adapters vary from country to country. As
not all service stations abroad will pro-
vide you with the required adapter for
your liquefied gas equipment we suggest
that you buy the necessary adapter
before travelling abroad.
Please check whether the adapters fit
your filling equipment.
✽✽
NOTICE
In Europe the most common adapter
types are ACME (1), Dish Coupling (2),
and Bayonet (3).
It is generally advisable to always carry
all three adapters on board as the pro-
liferation of filling systems varies from
country to country.
LPG safety precaution
Refill LPG only 80% of the tank.
Do not remove the valve to over refill. If you refill more than you are permitted,
the fuel tank may explode.
Turn the engine off while refilling.
Avoid heat and direct sunlight the fuel tank may pressure up.
Avoid underground parking lots or closed places when you need to park
your vehicle for a very long time.
If you smell LPG inside your vehicle open the windows. If you notice a leak,
we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
Make sure your vehicle is parked on a level surface and nothing flammable is
near while you check your vehicle.CAUTION
When an adapter is used, the user
needs to be aware of the following:
Worn out adapters must not be used.
Due to use of an adapter the released volume of gas is muchgreater compared to a direct con-
nection with the vehicle fillingconnector.
The nozzle must be disconnected from the car before the adapter isremoved.
Some vehicles only have a very small diameter thread to fix anadaptor.
In this case, the user should takeextra care.
The added length of the adapterprovides a greater bending moment. If the fill coupling has not been properly installed, thiscan distort the panel of the car or
even cause the thread of theadapter to shear.
If the vehicle drives away stillconnected then the adapter mayshear unwontedly before the
break-away coupling parts.

ROAD WARNING
Hazard warning flasher
The hazard warning flasher serves as a
warning to other drivers to exercise
extreme caution when approaching,
overtaking, or passing your vehicle.
It should be used whenever emergency
repairs are being made or when the vehi-cle is stopped near the edge of a road-
way.
Press the flasher switch with the ignition
switch in any position. The flasher switch
is located in the center console switch
panel. All turn signal lights will flash
simultaneously. • The hazard warning flasher operates
whether your vehicle is running or not.
The turn signals do not work when the hazard flasher is on.
Care must be taken when using the hazard warning flasher while the vehi-
cle is being towed.

✽✽
NOTICE
If the TPMS indicator does not illu-
minate for 3 seconds when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion or engine is running, or if it
comes on after blinking for approxi-
mately one minute, we recommend
that you contact an authorized Kia
dealer.Low tire pressure telltale
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicator is illuminat-
ed, one or more of your tires is sig-nificantly under-inflated.
If the telltale illuminates, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cor-
nering and anticipate increased stop-
ping distances. You should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible.Inflate the tires to the proper pres-
sure as indicated on the vehicle’splacard or tire inflation pressure label
located on the driver’s side center pil-
lar outer panel. If you cannot reach a
service station or if the tire cannot
hold the newly added air, replace the
low pressure tire with the spare tire.
Then the Low Tire Pressure telltale
may flash for approximately one
minute and then remain continuously
illuminated after restarting and about
20 minutes of continuous driving
before you have the low pressure tire
repaired and replaced on the vehicle.CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the low tire pressure telltale may beilluminated if the tire pressurewas adjusted to the recom- mended tire inflation pressurein warm weather. It does notmean your TPMS is malfunction- ing because the decreased tem-perature leads to a proportionallowering of tire pressure.
When you drive your vehiclefrom a warm area to a cold area or from a cold area to a warmarea, or the outside temperatureis greatly higher or lower, you should check the tire inflationpressure and adjust the tires tothe recommended tire inflation pressure.

FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one locat-
ed in the driver’s side panel bolster, oth-
ers in the engine compartment near the
battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check the
appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has
blown, the element inside the fuse will bemelted.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of
the same rating.
Before replacing a blown fuse, move to
safe place, turn off the engine and all
electric devices, and disconnect the neg-
ative battery cable.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid using
the system involved and we recommend
that you consult an authorized Kia dealer.
Four kinds of fuses are used: blade typefor lower amperage rating, cartridge type,battery fuse terminal and multi fuse typefor higher amperage ratings.✽✽ NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label may
differ from equipped items.
WARNING - Fuse
replacement
Never replace a fuse with any- thing but another fuse of the same rating.
A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire.
Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair. It may
cause extensive wiring damage
and a possible fire.
Do not arbitrarily modify or add-on electric wiring of the vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuit
and damage the system.

■ Type A
■ Type BCAUTION
When replacing a blown fuse or
relay with a new one, make sure
the new fuse or relay fits tightlyinto the clips. The incomplete fas-tening fuse or relay may cause the vehicle wiring and electric sys-
tems damage and a possible fire.
Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts ornuts. The fuses, relays and termi-
nals may be fastened incomplete-ly, and it may cause a possible fire.If fuses, relays and terminals fas-tened with bolts or nuts are blown,
we recommend that you consult with an authorized Kia dealer.
Do not input any other objects except fuses or relays intofuse/relay terminals such as a driv-
er or wiring. It may cause contactfailure and system malfunction.
Do not plug in screwdrivers or aftermarket wiring into the terminaloriginally designed for fuse and
relays only. The electrical systemand wiring of the vehicle interiormay be damaged or burned due to
contact failure.
