Knowing your vehicle
Power windows The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to operate.
Each door has a power window switch
that controls that door’s window.
However, the driver has a power window
lock switch which can block the operation
of passenger windows.
The power windows can be operated for
approximately 30 seconds after the igni-
tion key is removed or turned to the ACC
or LOCK position. However, if the front
doors are opened, the power windows
cannot be operated even within the 30
seconds after the ignition key removal.✽ ✽NOTICE• If you notice buffeting and pulsation
(wind shock) with either side window
open, you should open the opposite
window slightly to reduce the condi-
tion.
• In cold and wet climates, power win- dows may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.WINDOWS
CAUTION
To protect the power window sys-
tem from the possibility of dam-age, do not open or close twowindows at the same time. This will also ensure the longevity ofthe fuse.
Never try to operate the main switch on the driver's door andthe individual door windowswitch in opposing directions at the same time. If this is done, thewindow will stop and cannot be opened or closed.
WARNING -
Windows
Always double check to make sure all arms, hands, head and
other obstructions are safely out
of the way before closing a win-
dow.
Do not allow children to play with the power windows. Keep the
driver’s door power window lock
switch in the LOCK position
(depressed). Serious injury can
result from unintentional window
operation by the child.
Do not extend face or arms out- side through the window opening
while driving.

In case of an emergency
ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT PROTECTION Fuses A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by
fuses.This vehicle has two fuse panels, one
located 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 be
melted.
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 and cartridgetype, fusible link for higher amperage rat-ings.

CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fusesbecause it may cause a short circuitand damage the system.
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 instead of the proper fuse - even as a temporary
repair. It may cause extensive
wiring damage and possibly a
fire.

In case of an emergency86Driver’s side panel1. Turn the ignition switch and all otherswitches off.
2. Pull the suspected fuse straight out. Use the removal tool provided on the
main fuse box in the engine compart-
ment fuse relay box (if equipped).
Refer to the fuse panel chart on the
fuse panel cover to identify the likely
problem fuse or electrical circuit.
3. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown. The number of fuses vary
according to the vehicle model. Check
both the passenger and engine com-
partment fuse box covers. 4. 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 Kia
dealer.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of the 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.
Engine compartment1. Turn the ignition switch and all other switches off.
2. Remove the fuse box cover by press- ing the taps on both ends and pulling

use the fuse puller in the main fuse
box.
4. 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 Kia
Dealer.
