I'm still struggling to get this 'ambient lighting' thing to work.
I have been into the menu on the central instrument cluster and found ' adjust ambient lighting colour' and also 'adjust ambient lighting brightness'. I have clicked on them both selecting blue and maximum brightness. But nothing happened !
The buttons and switches are still back-lit in red and I don't see any other lights which have changed to blue anywhere in the car. Am I looking for the wrong thing ?
I have been onto KIA and they confirm that my 2020 Niro4 HEV comes with Ambient Lighting as part of the spec. My local dealer has also taken a look, can't work it out and has promised to come back to me when he has checked with KIA UK. But that was a week ago now and still no info !
So, if you have enabled 'ambient lighting' on your HEV will you please tell me what and where it is so I can join in the enjoyment of this feature.
Thanks.
What the hell is 'ambient lighting' on a Niro 4 HEV ?
Ambient lighting usually refers to subtle led lights in the footwells, internal door handles, around the roof control panels etc. I had this on my Ford Focus Titanium X, but haven't seen it on the Niro.
UK 2021 Mark 1 HEV 4 in silky silver, standard spec.
previously UK 2017 First Edition HEV in pearlescent white, standard spec.

Yes, I finally found it - and it really wasn't worth all the effort in doing so !
Ambient Lighting on my Niro4HEV 2020 seems to consist of just a feint blue glow beneath the silver trim over the glove box and to the right of the instrument cluster.
So what ? I ask myself. It doesn't change the colour of the back-lighting of the switches and knobs which still remain red or red or red. What a waste of design and engineering effort for so little effect !
Yes, I can only agree, it certainly wasn't worth the effort of telling you where to find it!HaxbyPete wrote: ↑Wed Dec 11, 2019 5:13 pm
