The Kia EV6 active air flap system may not function correctly if foreign materials obstruct the flap mechanism or if snow, ice, rain, or dirt contaminates the actuator or control components.
If this warning message appears on the instrument cluster, safely park the Kia EV6 and inspect the condition of the air flap system for visible blockage or contamination.
After removing foreign material or debris, restart the Kia EV6 after approximately 10 minutes. If the warning message remains visible, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
