Kia Seltos Dashboard Light Guide

Kia Seltos Dashboard Light Guide

2021 Kia Seltos

As you drive around West Chester, Philadelphia, and Ardmore, you may notice certain dashboard lights turn on as you’re behind the wheel. What do they mean? Is it important? What are these lights trying to say?

We’ve answered those questions for many Springfield and Exton, PA, and Wilmington, DE, drivers over the years, and are here to do so through our Kia Seltos dashboard light guide. This Kia SUV features a number of lights on the dashboard that require a bit of explanation, so join Kia of West Chester as we investigate these lights.


Seltos Warning Lights

When you first turn this Kia car on, many lights on the dashboard will illuminate. However, they should turn off after a few seconds. If a warning light remains on, there may be an issue that requires service.

Which warning lights may turn on in the Seltos?

The Air Bag Warning Light is one of them. This light lets you know the airbags have activated when your Kia Seltos is turned on. However, the light should turn off by the time you start driving. A malfunction with the Supplemental Restraint System can lead to the light remaining on. Maintenance may be required.

The Malfunction Indicator Lamp turns on when the engine first starts up. If the emissions control system has an issue, the light will remain on, and it’s time to visit our Kia dealership as soon as possible.

A final light worth mentioning is the Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light, which is shaped like an oil can. Oil pressure may be low in your Seltos, which means more oil is required. If you’ve added oil and the light is still on, it may be time to explore an oil/oil filter change.


Kia Seltos Indicator Lights

The Kia Seltos also features a number of indicator lights, which turn on throughout any drive. These lights don’t require immediate action on your end, but are just trying to let you know that a certain feature or system has been activated.

For example, if you’re making a turn, it’s always important to pay attention to those turn signals. The indicator light will activate when making a turn.

Or, maybe you’re looking at the dashboard to see if an active safety feature like Lane Keeping Assist is turned on. This light will illuminate when the Lane Keeping Assist button is pressed. If there’s an issue with the system itself, the yellow Lane Keeping Assist indicator will be on.
