engine). If any light that does not illumi-
nate, we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized Kia dealer. 
After starting the engine, check to make 
sure that all warning lights are off. If anyare still on, this indicates a situation that
needs attention. When releasing the
parking brake, the brake system warning
light should go off. The fuel warning light
will stay on if the fuel level is low.

This warning light will illuminate for 
approximately 6 seconds each time you
turn the ignition switch to the ON posi-tion. This light also comes on when the  
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is
not working properly. If the AIR BAG
warning light does not come on, or con-
tinuously remains on after operating for
about 6 seconds when you turned the
ignition switch to the ON position or start-
ed the engine, or if it comes on while
driving, we recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorized Kia deal-
er.

Anti-lock brake system
(ABS) warning light (if equipped)
This warning light illuminates if the igni- 
tion switch is turned to ON and goes off
in approximately 3 seconds if the system
is operating normally. 
If the ABS warning light remains on, 
comes on while driving, or does not
come on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, this indicates
that the ABS may have malfunctioned. 
If this occurs, we recommend to have the 
system checked by an authorized Kia
dealer. The normal braking system will
still be operational, but without the assis-
tance of the anti-lock brake system. Electronic brake force distri-bution (EBD) system warninglight 
If two warning lights illumi- nate at the same time while
driving, your vehicle may
have a malfunction with ABSand EBD system. 
In this case, your ABS and regular brake 
system may not work normally. We rec-
ommend that the system be checked by
an authorized Kia dealer.
Seat belt warning
As a reminder to the driver and passen- 
ger, the seat belt warning light will blink
or illuminate for approximately 6 seconds
each time you turn the ignition switch ON
regardless of belt fastening. 
For details, refer to the seat belt on chap- ter 3.
WARNING
If the both ABS and Brake warning 
lights are on and stay on, your vehi-
cle’s brake system will not work
normally. So you may experience
an unexpected and dangerous situa-
tion during sudden braking. In this
case, avoid high speed driving and
abrupt braking. We recommend that
the system be checked by an author-
ized Kia dealer.
