Releasing the parking brake
Check the brake warning light by turning
the ignition switch ON (do not start the
engine).This light will be illuminated when
the parking brake is applied with the igni-
tion switch in the START or ON position.
Before driving, be sure the parking brake
is fully released and the brake warning
light is off.
If the brake warning light remains on after
the parking brake is released while engine
is running, there may be a malfunction in
the brake system. Immediate attention is
necessary.
To release the parking brake, pull the
parking brake release lever while apply-
ing the foot brake. The pedal will auto-
matically extend to the fully released
position. If the parking brake pedal does
not release or does not release all the
way, have the system checked by an
authorized KIA dealer.
• All vehicles should always have
the parking brake fully engaged
when parking to avoid inadver-
tent movement of the car which
can injure occupants or pedestri-
ans.
If at all possible, cease driving the vehi-
cle immediately. If that is not possible,
use extreme caution while operating the
vehicle and only continue to drive the
vehicle until you can reach a safe loca-
tion or repair shop.
