FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels,
one located in the driver’s side panel
bolster, the other in the engine com-
partment 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
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult an authorized Kia
dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: micromini type for lower amperage rating,cartridge type, and multi fuse forhigher amperage ratings.Do not arbitrarily modify or add-on
electric wiring to the vehicle.
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 alu- minum foil instead of the
proper fuse - even as a tem-
porary repair. It may cause
extensive wiring damage and
a possible fire.
When replacing a fuse, make sure the ignition is in the Off
position and all electrical
devices are off prior to sepa-
rating the (-) terminal from the
battery.

CAUTION - Fuse fire
When replacing a blown fuse
or relay, make sure the newfuse or relay fits tightly intothe clips. Failure to tightlyinstall the fuse or relay maycause damage to the wiringand electric systems.
Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened withbolts or nuts. The fuses, relaysand terminals may not be fas-tened correctly which maycause vehicle damage.
WARNING- Electrical Fire
Always ensure replacements fuses and relays are securely
fastened when installed.
Failure to do so can result in a
vehicle fire.
We recommend that you do not remove fuses, relays and termi-
nals that are fastened with
bolts or nuts. If they are not
