Fuses and Relays
 |
| Fuses Type : Blade, Cartridge, Multi Fuse, BFT - Normal, Blown |
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected from electrical overload damage by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels, one located in the driver’s side panel bolster, the other in the engine compartment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, accessories, or controls do not work, check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has blown, the element inside the fuse will melt.
If the electrical system does not work, first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indicates an electrical problem. Avoid using the system involved and immediately consult an authorized Kia dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type for lower amperage rating, cartridge type, and multi fuse for higher amperage ratings.
• Do not arbitrarily modify or add-on electric wiring to the vehicle.
WARNING - Fuse replacement
• Never replace a fuse with anything but another fuse of the same rating.
• A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire.
• Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse - even as a temporary repair. It may cause extensive wiring damage and a possible fire.
• Never replace a fuse with anything but another fuse of the same rating.
• A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire.
• Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse - even as a temporary repair. It may cause extensive wiring damage and a possible fire.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a
short circuit and damage the system.
NOTICE
• When replacing fuse, turn the ignition “OFF” and turn off switches of all electrical devices
then remove battery (-) terminal.
• The actual fuse/relay panel label may differ from equipped items.
WARNING - Electrical Fire
Always ensure replacements fuses and relays are securely fastened when installed. Failure
to do so can result in a vehicle fire.
CAUTION
• When replacing a blown fuse or relay, make sure the new fuse or relay fits tightly into the clips. Failure to tightly install the fuse or relay may cause damage to the wiring and electric systems.
• Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts or nuts.The fuses, relays
and terminals may not be fastened correctly which may cause vehicle damage.
CAUTION
• Do not input any other objects except fuses or relays into fuse/relay terminals such as a
driver or wiring. It may cause contact failure and system malfunction.
• Do not plug in screwdrivers or aftermarket wiring into the terminal originally designed for
fuse and relays only. The electrical system and wiring of the vehicle interior may be damaged
or burned due to contact failure.
• If you directly connect the wire on the taillight or replace the bulb which is over the regulated
capacity to install trailers etc., the inner junction block can get burned.
Inner panel fuse replacement

Inner panel fuse replacement |
1. Turn the ignition switch and all other switches off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover.
If the switch is located in the “OFF” position, a caution indicator will be displayed in the cluster.
2. Open the fuse panel cover.
If the switch is located in the “OFF” position, a caution indicator will be displayed in the cluster.

| Fuse Puller Location |
3. Pull the suspected fuse straight out. Use the removal tool provided on the engine compartment fuse panel cover.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
Spare fuses are provided in the engine compartment fuse panel.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips.
If it fits loosely, consult an authorized Kia dealer.
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 power outlet fuse.
If the head lamp, turn signal lamp, stop signal lamp, fog lamp, DRL, tail lamp, HMSL do not work and the fuses are OK, check the fuse panel in the engine compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must be replaced.
✽ NOTICE
If the headlamp, fog lamp, turn signal lamp, or tail lamp malfunction even without any problem to the lamps, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Kia dealer for assistance.
CAUTION - Fuse Panel Covers
The contact points of the switches may wear out with excessive use. Please refrain from excessive use of the switches (except for long-term parking for over 1 month).
✽ NOTICE
• Set all switches to ON before driving.
• If the vehicle is going to be unused for over 1 month, set all switches to OFF to prevent the batteries from draining.
Memory fuse
 |
| Memory Fuse Location |
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Turn off the headlights and tail lights.
3. Open the driver’s side panel cover and pull up the memory fuse.
If the memory fuse is pulled up from the fuse panel, the warning chime, audio, clock and interior lamps, etc.,
will not operate. Some items must be reset after replacement. Refer to “Battery” in this section.
Even though the memory fuse is pulled up, the battery can still be discharged by operation of the headlights or other electrical devices.
Engine compartment fuse replacement
1. Turn the ignition switch and all other switches off.
2. Remove the fuse panel cover by pressing the tab and pulling the cover up. When the blade type fuse is disconnected, remove it by using the clip designed for changing fuses located in the engine compartment fuse box. Upon removal, securely insert reserve fuse of the same rating.
3. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown. To remove or insert the fuse, use the fuse puller in the engine compartment fuse panel.
4. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips. If it fits loosely, consult an authorized Kia dealer.
CAUTION
After checking the fuse panel in the engine compartment, securely install the fuse panel
cover through the audible clicking sound. If not, electrical failures may occur from water contact.
Multi fuse
 |
| Multi Fuse Location |
If the multi fuse is blown, it must be removed as follows:
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Remove the nuts shown in the picture above.
4. Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.
5. Reverse these steps to reinstall the multi fuse.
✽ NOTICE
Do not disassemble nor assemble the multi fuse when it is secured with nuts and bolts. Incorrect or partial assembly torque may cause a fire. Have the vehicle checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.
CAUTION
Visually inspect the battery cap to ensure it is securely closed. If the battery cap is not securely closed, moisture may enter the system and damage the electrical components.
NOTICE - Random wiring prohibited when retrofitting equipment
Use of random wiring in the vehicle might cause danger due to failure and damage of the vehicle’s performance.
Using random wires especially when retrofitting AVN or theft alarm system, remote engine control, car phone or radio might damage the vehicle or cause fire.

✽ NOTICE - Remodeling Prohibited
Do not try remodeling the vehicle in any way. It is illegal, and may affect the vehicle’s performance, durability, and safety. Warranty is also not provided for problems caused by
remodeling.
Be aware of safety problems caused by remodeling the vehicle with unauthorized electrical devices(lamp, black box, electrical equipment, diagnostic device, communication device, etc.). It might cause malfunction of the vehicle, wiring damage, battery discharge, connector damage, or fire. the vehicle or cause fire.
Window tinting precaution
Window tint(especially metallic film) might cause communication disorder or poor radio reception, and malfunction of the automatic lighting system due to excessive change of illumination inside the vehicle. The solution used might also flow into electric, electronic devices causing disorder and failure.
