IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START
If the engine doesn't turn over
or turns over slowly
1. Check the battery connections to
be sure they are clean and tight.
2. Turn on the interior light. If the
light dims or goes out when you
operate the starter, the battery is
discharged.
3. Check the starter connections to be
sure they are securely tightened.
4. Do not push or pull the vehicle to
start it. See instructions for “Jump
starting” on page 7-05.
WARNING
If the engine will not start, do not
push or pull the vehicle to start it.
This could result in a collision or
cause other damage. In addition,
push or pull starting may cause the
catalytic converter to be overloaded
and create a fire hazard.
If the engine turns over
normally but does not start
1. Check the fuel level.
2. With the ignition switch in the LOCK
position, check all connectors at the
ignition coils and spark plugs. Re‐
connect any that may be discon‐
nected or loose.
3. Check the fuel line in the engine
compartment.
4. If the engine still does not start, call
a professional workshop. Kia rec‐
ommends to call an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
