Sunroof Reset

~1min read

Whenever the vehicle battery is disconnected or discharged, or the corresponding fuse is blown, you must reset the roof system as follows:

1. Start the engine.

2. Fully close the roof if it is open.

3. Release the roof control lever.

4. Push the roof control lever forward in the closing direction (approximately 10 seconds) until the sunshade opens and the roof glass tilts up. Then release the lever.

5. Within 3 seconds, move the roof control lever forward in the closing direction until the roof operates again as follows:

Roof glass open → Roof glass closed → Sunshade closed

Then release the lever.

When this is complete, the roof system is reset.

For more details, we recommend contacting an authorized Kia dealer.

✽ NOTICE

If you do not reset the roof, it may not operate correctly.
