In case of an emergency
ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT PROTECTION
Blade type
This vehicle has two fuse panels, one Fuse replacement
located in the driver's side panel bolster,
the other in the engine compartment
near the battery.
WARNING - Fuse replace-
ment
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.
• 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.
Normal
Blown
Cartridge type
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.

Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses
because it may cause a short circuit
and damage the system.
