OWNER MAINTENANCEOwner Maintenance Schedule
The owner should perform these
vehicle inspections at the indicated
intervals to ensure safe and depend-
able operation.
Bring any problem to the attention of
an authorized Kia dealer as soon as
possible.When refueling, check the follow-
ing:
Engine oil level
Engine coolant level
Brake (and clutch, if equipped) fluid
level
Washer fluid levelEvery month, check:
Tire inflation pressures (cold)
Coolant level in reservoir (cold
engine)
Every 6 months (for example,
every spring and fall), check:
Power steering fluid level
Automatic transmission fluid level
MAINTENANCE
7-7
WARNING
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level. The engine
compartment will be hot and
you could be burned.
WARNING- Engine Cooling Fans
Because your engine cooling
fans are electronically con-
trolled, they will run if the igni-
tion switch is ON, even if the
engine is not running. This
could cause serious injury. To
prevent this, be sure the igni-
tion is OFF, unless you must run
the engine while performing
maintenance or an inspection.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
(IF EQUIPPED)Checking the Automatic
Transmission Fluid Level
The automatic transmission fluid level
should be checked regularly.The volume of the transmission fluid
changes with temperature. Although
it is best to check the level after hav-
ing driven the vehicle for at least 30
minutes, the level can be checked
after warming the fluid using the pro-
cedure below.

Automatic transmission fluid dipstick
✽ ✽
NOTICE Low transmission fluid level
causes transmission slippage.
Overfilling can cause foaming,
loss of fluid and transmission
malfunction.
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transmission mal-
function and failure.
WARNING- Parking Brake
To avoid sudden movement of
the vehicle, set the parking
brake and depress the brake
pedal before moving the shift
lever.
BL-ENG (CAN)-7.qxd 7/28/05 5:58 PM Page 17

1. Park the vehicle on level ground
and firmly set the parking brake.
2. Allow the engine to idle for about 2
minutes.
3. Depress the brake pedal and move
the shift lever slowly through all
ranges then set it in P (Park).
4. With the engine still idling, pull out
the dipstick, wipe it clean and rein-
sert it fully.
5. Pull out the dipstick again and
check the fluid level.5. Pull out the dipstick again and
check the fluid level.
If the fluid has been warmed to nor-
mal operating temperature of approx-
imately 167°F (75°C), the fluid level
should be between the 2 notches
marked 75°C.MAINTENANCE7-18

NOTICEThe notch on the 25°C scale is for

used to determine transmission

NOTICENew automatic transaxle fluid
should be red. The red dye is added
so the assembly plant can identify it
as automatic transaxle fluid and
distinguishes it from engine oil or
antifreeze. The red dye, which is not
an indicator of fluid quality, is not
permanent. As the vehicle is driven,
the automatic transaxle fluid will
begin to look darker. The color may
eventually appear light brown.
Therefore, have an Authorized Kia
dealer change the automatic
transaxle fluid according to the
Scheduled Maintenance at the
beginning of this section.

LUBRICANT
SPECIFICATIONSRecommended Lubricants
To help achieve proper engine and
powertrain performance and durabili-
ty, use only lubricants of the proper
quality. The correct lubricants also
help promote engine efficiency that
results in improved fuel economy.
Engine oils labeled Energy
Conserving Oil are now available.
Along with other additional benefits,
they contribute to fuel economy by
reducing the amount of fuel neces-
sary to overcome engine friction.
Often, these improvements are diffi-
cult to measure in everyday driving,
but in a year’s time, they can offer sig-
nificant cost and energy savings.
