Adjusting
◦ When the abnormality is detected in the electric power steering system, a dead
ly accident prevention purposes, steering assist functions will be stopped. At this
time, the instrument cluster warning light turns on or blinks and the power to ma
nipulate the steering will be off. Please check immediately after moving the vehi
cle to a safe zone.
◦ The steering effort increases if the steering wheel is rotated continuously when
the vehicle is not in motion. However, after a few minutes, it will return to its nor
mal conditions.
◦ If the Electric Power Steering System does not operate normally, the warning light
will appear or blink on the instrument cluster. The steering wheel may become dif
ficult to control or operate abnormally. In this case, have the system inspected by
a professional workshop. Kia recommends visiting an authorised Kia dealer/ser
vice partner.
◦ When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnormal noise could
occur. If temperature rises, the noise will disappear. This is a normal condition.
◦ When jump starting the vehicle after battery discharge, the steering wheel may
not function properly. It is a temporary situation due to low battery voltage, and
upon stable battery charging, the steering wheel will function normally again.
Please move the steering wheel around to make sure the steering wheel is func
tioning properly before driving the vehicle.
• The heated steering wheel will turn off automatically approximately 30 minutes af
ter the heated steering wheel is turned on.
