Features of your vehicle
Electric power steering
Power steering uses the motor to
assist you in steering the vehicle. If
the engine is off or if the power steer-
ing system becomes inoperative, the
vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
The motor driven power steering is
controlled by the power steering con-
trol unit which senses the steering
wheel torque and vehicle speed to
command the motor.
The steering wheel becomes heavier
as the vehicle’s speed increases and
becomes lighter as the vehicle’s
speed decreases for better control of
the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power
steering checked by an authorized
Kia dealer.
✽ ✽NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort is high immedi-
ately after turning the ignition
switch on. This happens as the sys-
tem performs the EPS system
diagnostics. When the diagnostics
is completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON or
LOCK position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.
• The steering effort increases if the steering wheel is rotated continu-
ously when the vehicle is not in
motion. However, after a few min-
utes, it will return to its normal
conditions.
• When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnor-
mal noise could occur. If tempera-
ture rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.
STEERING WHEEL
CAUTION
If the EPS system does not
operate normally, the warninglight will illuminate on theinstrument cluster. The steeringwheel may become difficult tocontrol or operate abnormally.Take your vehicle to an author-ized Kia dealer and have thevehicle checked as soon aspossible.

steering wheel is turned on. If ignition is turned OFF, then ON
again within 30 miuntes of steering
wheel heater being turned on, the
