Kia Picanto: Roadside Emergencies / Fuel Shutoff
WARNING: If your vehicle has been involved in a crash, have the fuel system
checked. Failure to follow this instruction could result in fire, personal injury
or death.
Note: When you try to restart your vehicle after a fuel shutoff, the vehicle
makes sure that various systems are safe to restart. Once the vehicle determines
the systems are safe, then the vehicle allows you to restart.
Note: In the event that your vehicle does not restart after your third
attempt, contact a qualified technician.
The fuel pump shutoff stops the flow of fuel to the engine in the event of a
moderate to severe crash. Not every impact causes a shutoff.
Should your vehicle shut off after a crash, you may restart your vehicle.
If your vehicle has a key system:
