Electrical Fire
Always ensure replacements fuses and
relays are securely fastened when
installed. Failure to do so can result in a
vehicle fire.
Do not remove fuses, relays and termi

blown, we recommend that you consult
a professional workshop. Kia recom

When replacing a blown fuse or relay,
make sure the new fuse or relay fits
tightly into the clips. Failure to tightly
install the fuse or relay may cause dam

僅 Do not input any other objects except
fuses or relays into fuse/relay termi
