Inner panel fuse replacement
1. Turn the ignition switch and all oth‐
er switches off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover.
3. Pull the suspected fuse straight
out. Use the removal tool provided
in the main fuse box in the engine
compartment.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it
if it is blown.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same
rating, and make sure it fits tightly
in the clips.
If it fits loosely, consult a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to consult
an authorized Kia dealer/service part‐
ner.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse
of the same rating from a circuit you
may not need for operating the vehicle,
such as the cigarette lighter fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the fuses
are OK, check the fuse panel in the en‐
gine compartment. If a fuse is blown, it
must be replaced.
Fuse switch
Always, put the fuse switch at the ON
position.
If you move the switch to the OFF posi‐
tion, some items such as audio and dig‐
ital clock must be reset and transmitter
(or smart key) may not work properly.
CAUTION
• Always place the fuse switch in
the ON position while driving the
vehicle.
