Repair Procedures: Removal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Kia Cadenza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
  • When removing with a flat-tip screwdriver or remover, wrap protective tape around the tools to prevent damage to components.
  • Eject all discs before removing the Audio head unit to prevent damaging the CD player's loading mechanism.
  • When removing the interior trim pieces, use a plastic panel removal tool to prevent damaging the surface.
  • Be careful of storing and handling the crash pad during removal/installation as lubricant and oil may leave stain on the trim.
  1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
  2. Remove the crash pad center lower panel.
