IF YOU HAVE A FLAT
TIRESTORING THE SPARE
TIRE, JACK AND TOOLSThe spare tire, tool bag, jack and jack
handle are stored in the trunk
compartment. Move the carpeting out of
the way to reach this equipment.
TO REMOVE THE JACK:Turn the jack socket counterclockwise.
TO REMOVE SPARE TIRE:Turn the tire hold-down wing bolt
counterclockwise.
Store the tire in the reverse order of
removal.
To prevent the jack, jack handle, and
tool bag from “rattling” while the
vehicle is in motion, store them properly.

6-23 6. For models with alloy wheels,
remove the center cap.
7. Loosen the four lug nuts
counterclockwise one turn each, but
do not remove any nut until the tire
has been raised off the ground.8. Place the jack at the front or rear
jacking position closest to the tire
you are changing. Place the jack
under the side sill at the designated
location.9. Insert the jack handle into the jack and
turn it clockwise, raising the vehicle
until the tire just clears the ground,
approximately 1.2 in. (30 mm).
Before removing the lug nuts, make
sure the vehicle is stable and that there
is no chance for it to slip or move.

WARNING - Changing a
Front Tire
When one front wheel is lifted
off the ground, neither the
automatic transaxle P (Park)
position nor the manual
transaxle R (Reverse) position
will prevent the vehicle from
moving and possibly slipping
off the jack, even if these
positions are properly engaged.
To prevent vehicle movements
while changing a tire, always set
the parking brake fully, and
always block the wheel
diagonally opposite the wheel
being changed.
WARNING - Jack
Location
To reduce the possibility of
injury, be sure to use only the
jack provided with the vehicle
and in the correct jack position;
never use any other part of the
vehicle for jack support.

10. Remove the lug nuts by turning them
counterclockwise, then remove the
wheel.
11. Mount the spare tire into position and
tighten the nuts by hand. Install the
lug nuts with the beveled edge
inward.
12. Turn the jack handle counterclockwise
and lower the vehicle until it touches
the ground.
Tighten the lug nuts firmly in an “X”
pattern.Once the lug nuts have been tightened,
lower the vehicle fully to the ground and
continue to tighten the lug nuts until they
are completely secured.
If you are unsure of the tightness of the
wheel lug nuts, have them checked at the
nearest service station. The specified
tightening torque is 76 ft. lb (103 N·m).

CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads on
the wheel studs and nuts. During
wheel removal, make certain that
the same nuts removed are
reinstalled - or, if replaced, that
nuts with metric threads and the
same configuration are used.
Installation of a non-metric thread
nut on a metric stud or vice-versa
will not secure the wheel to the hub
properly and will damage the stud
so that it must be replaced. Note
that most U.S. lug nuts do not have
metric threads. Be sure to use
extreme care in checking for thread
style before installing aftermarket
lug nuts or wheels. If in doubt,
consult an Authorized Kia Dealer.
Damaged studs may result in wheel
loss and personal injury.

MAINTENANCE
7-14ENGINE COOLING
SYSTEMThe cooling system is a high-pressure
type with a reservoir and is filled with
year-round antifreeze coolant at the
factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at the
beginning of the winter season, and
before traveling to a colder climate.
CHECKING THE
COOLANT LEVEL
WARNING - Removing
Radiator Cap
Never attempt to remove the
radiator cap while the engine
is operating. Doing so might
lead to cooling system
and/or engine damage and
could result in serious
personal injury from
escaping hot coolant or
steam.
Turn the engine off and wait
until it has cooled. Even then,
use extreme care when
removing the radiator cap.
Wrap a thick towel around it,
and turn it counterclockwise
slowly to the first stop. Step
back while the pressure is
released from the cooling
system. When you are sure
all the pressure has been
released, press down on the
cap, using a thick towel, and
continue turning
counterclockwise to remove
it.
Even if the engine is not
operating, do not remove the
radiator cap or the drain plug
while the engine and radiator
are hot. Hot coolant and
steam may still blow out
under pressure, causing
serious injury.

Check the condition and connections of
all cooling system hoses and heater
hoses. Replace any swollen or
deteriorated hoses.
The coolant level should be full in the
radiator and between F (Full) and L
(Low) on the coolant reservoir tank
when the engine is cool.If the coolant level is low, add enough
specified coolant to provide protection
against freezing and corrosion and to
bring the level to F in the coolant
reservoir. Do not overfill. If frequent
additions are required, see an Authorized
Kia Dealer for a cooling system
inspection.
CHANGING COOLANTChange coolant according to the
Scheduled Maintenance.
• Use only soft (de-mineralized) water
in the coolant mixture.
• The engine in your vehicle has
aluminum engine parts and must be
protected by an ethylene glycol-
based coolant to prevent corrosion
and freezing.
• DO NOT USE alcohol or methanol
coolant and do not mix them with the
specified coolant.•Do not use a solution that contains
more than 60% coolant or less than
35% coolaut, which would reduce
the effectiveness of the solution.
For mixture percen-tages, refer to the
following table.
1. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise
and remove it.
2. Loosen the radiator drain plug and
drain the coolant into a suitable
container.

CAUTION
A wheel that is not the correct size
may adversely affect wheel and
bearing life, braking and stopping
abilities, handling characteristics,
ground clearance, body-to-tire
clearance, snow chain clearance,
speedometer calibration, headlight
aim and bumper height.
WARNING - Halogen
Bulbs
Wear eye protection when
changing a bulb. Allow the
bulb to cool before handling it.
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurized gas. If broken, a
halogen bulb will explode and
will produce flying pieces of
glass.
Always handle halogen bulbs
carefully to avoid scratches
and abrasions. If the bulbs
are lit, avoid contact with
liquids. Never touch the
glass with bare hands.
Residual oil may cause the
bulb to overheat and burst
when lit. A bulb should be
operated only when installed
in the headlight assembly.
If a bulb becomes damaged
or cracked, replace it
immediately and carefully
dispose it.
