WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Kia Forte. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
- Warning and guide sounds regarding engine start and driving are generated by the external amplifier. Please refer to the following:
(Instrument Cluster and Gauge - Refer to "INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ")
- When the external amplifier or speakers are replaced with other products, a failure may occur in the amplifier and warning and guide sounds (excluding the ETCS guide sound) may not be generated.
- Virtual engine sound inside the vehicle (occurs in Sport mode) is generated by the external amplifier. Therefore, if the external amplifier or speakers are replaced with other products, a failure may occur in the amplifier and virtual engine sound may not be generated properly.
- In the body electrical system, failure can be quickly diagnosed by using the vehicle diagnostic system (KDS).
- Self diagnosis: Checking failure and code number (DCT).
- Current data: Checking the system input/output data state.
- Actuation test: Checking the system operation condition.
