On loose or uneven road surfaces, op‐
eration of the anti-lock brake system
may result in a longer stopping dis‐
tance than for vehicles equipped with
a conventional brake system.

with the ABS. In this case, howev‐
er, your regular brakes will work
normally.

The ABS warning light will stay on
for approximately 3 seconds after
the ignition switch 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 the system checked by
a professional workshop. Kia rec‐
ommends to visit 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 the system
checked by a professional work‐
shop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service part‐
ner.
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.
