Let's see where the fuse boxes are located in the Kia Rio MK3: as for the left-hand drive models, the cabin fuse box is located at the bottom of the dashboard, to the left of the steering wheel, in a compartment with a handle; it opens by lifting it upwards.

For right-hand drive models, the fuse box is in the exact mirror position, so at the bottom of the dashboard, but to the right of the steering wheel.

In this box we find the fuses for the cigarette lighter, which are also power outlets and are marked with the words: "POWER OUTLET" and "C. LIGHTER". The engine compartment fuse box is located between the starter battery and the outer part of the bodywork, in front of the driver (left-hand drive).
