Parking Brake Inspection

Check the parking brake travel by counting the number of audible "clicks" while fully applying it from the released position. Also, the parking brake alone should hold the vehicle securely on a fairly steep slope. If the travel is more or less than specified, have the parking brake adjusted by an authorized Kia dealer.

Travel: 5 to 7 "clicks" at a force of 20 kg (44 lb, 196 N).
