Indicator light
When ignition switch is turned to ON,
the indicator light illuminates, then
goes off if ESP system is operating
normally.
The ESP indicator light blinks when-
ever ESP is operating.
ESP OFF indicator light comes on
when either the ESP is turned off
with the button, or ESP fails to oper-
ate when turned on.

NOTICE
After reconnecting or recharging a
discharged battery, the ESP OFF
indicator may illuminate.
In this case, turn the handle half way
to the left and right whilst the igni-
tion switch is in the ON position.
Then, restart the engine after the
ignition is off. The ESP OFF indica-
tor may turn off. If the ESP OFF
indicator does not turn off, have the
system checked by an authorised Kia
dealer as soon as possible.

The Electronic Stability Program
system is only a driving aid; use
precautions for safe driving by
slowing down on curved, snowy,
or icy roads. Drive slowly and
don’t attempt to accelerate
whenever the ESP indicator light
is blinking, or when the road sur-
face is slippery.
