Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light

This indicator light illuminates:

• As soon as you set the ignition switch or Engine Start/Stop button to the ON position.
  - Stays on until the engine is started.
• When the engine oil pressure is low.

If the engine oil pressure is low:

1. Carefully drive to the nearest safe location and stop the vehicle.

2. Turn the engine off and check the engine oil level (refer to "Engine Oil" in chapter 8 for details). If the level is low, add oil as necessary.

If the warning light stays on after adding oil, or if oil is not available, have your vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer as soon as possible.

CAUTION - Engine Damage

If the engine is not stopped immediately when the engine oil pressure warning light illuminates and remains on while the engine is running, serious engine damage may result.

WARNING - Engine Overheating

Do not continue driving with the engine overheated. Otherwise, the engine may be damaged.

If the warning light stays on while the engine is running, serious engine damage may occur. In this case,

1. Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.

2. Turn off the engine and check the oil level. If the oil level is low, add engine oil to the proper level.

3. Start the engine again. If the warning light remains on after the engine starts, turn off the engine immediately. In this situation, have your vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
