Driving your vehicle

IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
If your temperature gauge indicates
overheating, you will experience a loss of power, or hear loud pinging or knock‐
ing, the engine is probably too hot. If
this happens, you should: 1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P (automatic transaxle) or neutral (manual
transaxle) and set the parking
brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If engine coolant is running out un‐ der the vehicle or steam is coming
out from the hood, stop the engine.
Do not open the hood until the
coolant has stopped running or the
steaming has stopped. If there is no
visible loss of engine coolant and no
steam, leave the engine running
and check to be sure the engine
cooling fan is operating. If the fan is
not running, turn the engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not
missing, check to see that it is
tight.
If the drive belt seems to be satis‐
factory, check for coolant leaking
from the radiator, hoses or under
the vehicle. (If the air conditioning had been in use, it is normal for
cold water to be draining from it
when you stop).
WARNING
While the engine is running, keephair, hands and clothing away frommoving parts such as the fan anddrive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is bro‐ ken or engine coolant is leaking out,
stop the engine immediately and
call a professional workshop. Kia
recommends to call an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator capwhen the engine is hot. This can al‐low coolant to blow out of the open‐ing and cause serious burns.
6. If you cannot find the cause of the overheating, wait until the engine
temperature has returned to nor‐
mal. Then, if coolant has been lost,
carefully add coolant to the reser‐
voir to bring the fluid level in the
reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for further signs of overheating. Ifoverheating happens again, call a
professional workshop. Kia recom‐
mends to call an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
CAUTION
•Serious loss of coolant indicatesthere is a leak in the cooling sys‐tem. In this case, have the sys‐tem checked by a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends tovisit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
•When the engine overheats fromlow engine coolant, suddenlyadding engine coolant may causecracks in the engine. To preventdamage, add engine coolantslowly in small quantities.
