Features of your vehicle Steering wheel
CAUTION
When you continuously operate the
steering wheel, the overcurrent
protection device is activated and it
requires more force to operate the
steering wheel. However, this
doesn't indicate a malfunction, and
it works for your safety and will
return to normal after some time.
CAUTION
If the Electric Power Steering (EPS)
system does not work or an error
occurs, the warning light on the
instrument panel may be turned on
or blink and it may require more
force to operate the steering wheel.
In this case, please hold the steering
wheel more tightly than usual and
operate with greater force. And
then immediately pull your vehicle
over to a safe place and have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer.
Tilt & telescopic steering wheel
A tilt and telescopic steering wheel
allows you to adjust the steering
wheel before you drive. You can also
raise it to give your legs more room
when you exit and enter the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be posi
-
tioned so that it is comfortable for
you to drive, while permitting you to
see the instrument panel warning
lights and gauges.
WARNING

the steering wheel while driving. You
