Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative impact on the air con-
ditioning system.
(Heater performance as well as air
conditioner performance can be
deteriorated on the vehicle that is
equipped with a heat pump.)
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by
an authorized Kia dealer.

the Electric Vehicle (EV) should

ids, tools and service proce-
dures. Improperly servicing the

tioning system could result in
