• The ABS warning light will stay on
for
approximately 3 seconds after
the Engine Start/Stop button is
ON. During that time, the ABS will
go through self-diagnosis and the
light will go off if everything is
normal. If the light stays on, you
may have a problem with your
ABS. In this case, have your vehicle
inspected by a professional work‐
shop. Kia recommends to contact
an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
CAUTION
• When you drive on a road having
poor
traction, such as an icy road,
and operate your brakes continu‐
ously, the ABS will be active con‐
tinuously and the ABS warning
light may illuminate. Pull your car
over to a safe place and stop the
engine.

• Restart the engine. If the ABS
warning
light is off, then your ABS
system is normal. Otherwise, you
may have a problem with the ABS.
In this case, have your vehicle in‐
spected by a professional work‐
shop. Kia recommends to contact
an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
NOTICE
When you jump start your vehicle
because of a drained battery, the
engine may not run as smoothly and
the ABS warning light may turn on
at the same time. This happens be‐
cause of the low battery voltage. It
does not mean your ABS is malfunc‐
tioning.
• Do not pump your brakes!
• Have the battery recharged before
driving the vehicle.
Electronic stability control (ESC)
(if equipped)

system is designed to stabilize the ve‐
hicle during cornering maneuvers. ESC
checks where you are steering and
where the vehicle is actually going. ESC
applies the brakes on individual wheels
and intervenes with the engine man‐
agement system to stabilize the vehi‐
cle.
