FUSES

Blade type

A vehicle’s electrical system is protected

from electrical overload damage by

fuses.

WARNING - Fuse replace-

ment

• Never replace a fuse with any-

thing 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.

This vehicle has 3 fuse panels, one locat-

ed in the driver’s side panel bolster, the

other in the engine compartment near

the battery.

If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-

sories, or controls do not work, check the

appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has

blown, the element inside the fuse will

melt.

Blown

Normal

Cartridge type

If the electrical system does not work,

first check the driver’s side fuse panel.

Normal

Blown

Always replace a blown fuse with one of

the same rating.

Fusible link

If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-

cates 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 rat-

ings.

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.

OK, check the fuse panel in the engine

compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must

be replaced.

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.

Inner panel fuse replacement

1. Turn the ignition switch and all other

switches off.

2. Open the fuse panel cover.

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.
