Features of your vehicle
D150308ATD
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-diago-
nal braking systems. This means you still
have braking on two wheels even if one
of the dual systems should fail. With only
one of the dual systems working, more
than normal pedal travel and greater
pedal pressure are required to stop the
vehicle. Also, the vehicle will not stop in
as short a distance with only a portion of
the brake system working. If the brakes
fail while you are driving, shift to a lower
gear for additional engine braking and
stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.

Parking brake warning
This indicator comes on when the front

This warning light is illuminated when the

parking brake is released.
D150312AAM
Shift pattern indicator
(if equipped)
Low brake fluid level warning
The indicator displays which automatic
transaxle shift position is selected.
If the warning light remains on, it may
indicate that the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
To check bulb operation, check whether
the parking brake and brake fluid warning
light illuminates when the ignition switch
is in the ON position.
If the warning light remains on:
1.
Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2.
With the engine stopped, check the
brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required. Then check all brake
components for fluid leaks.
Do not drive the vehicle if leaks are
found, the warning light remains on or
the brakes do not operate properly.
Have the vehicle towed to any author-
ized KIA dealer for a brake system
inspection and necessary repairs.
WARNING
Driving the vehicle with a warning
light on is dangerous. If the brake
warning light remains on, have the
brakes checked and repaired imme-
diately by an authorized KIA dealer.
