When you don’t use the vehicle for a long
time in the low temperature area, sepa-
rate the battery and keep it indoors.
Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged in a
short time (because, for example, the
headlights or interior lights were left on
while the vehicle 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 no
more than 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.
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 49°C
(120°F).
Wear eye protection when checking 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.WARNING - Recharging
battery
Never attempt to recharge the bat-
tery when the battery cables are
connected.
WARNING - Risk of elec-
trocution
Never touch the electrical ignition
system while the vehicle is run-
ning. This system works with high
voltage which can "zap" you.

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, the
other 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
melt.
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.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid using
the system involved and immediately
consult an authorized Kia dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type
for lower amperage rating, cartridge type, and multi fuse for higher amperage rat-ings.

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 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 - Fuse replace-ment
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuitand damage the system.

763
Maintenance
If it fits loosely, consult an authorized Kia
dealer.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse ofthe same rating from a circuit you maynot need for operating the vehicle, suchas the cigar lighter fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical com-
ponents do not work and the fuses are
OK, check the fuse block in the engine
compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must
be replaced.
Memory fuse
Your vehicle is equipped with the memo-
ry fuse to prevent battery discharge if
your vehicle is parked without being
operated for prolonged periods. Use the
following procedures before parking the
vehicle for prolonged periods.
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Turn off the headlights and tail lights.
3. Open the driver’s side panel cover and pull up the memory fuse. If the memory fuse is pulled up from the
fuse panel, the warning chime, audio,
clock and interior lamps, etc., will not
operate. Some items must be reset after
replacement. Refer to “Battery” in this
section.
Even though the memory fuse is pulled
up, the battery can still be discharged by
operation of the headlights or other elec-
trical devices.

Maintenance
LIGHT BULBS
Use only the bulbs of the specifiedwattage.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 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 headlight assembly to get to
the bulb(s). Removing/installing the
headlight assembly can result in damage
to the vehicle.
WARNING- Lights
Prior to working on the light, firmly
apply the parking brake, ensure
that the ignition switch is turned to
the “LOCK” position and turn off
the lights to avoid burning your fin-
gers or receiving an electric shock.
CAUTION- Light replacement
Be sure to replace the burned-out
bulb with one of the same wattagerating. Otherwise, it may causedamage to the fuse or electricwiring system.
