ECONOMICAL OPERATION
ðour vühiclü's ýuül üconomy düpünds mainly on your stylü oý drivinþ, whürü
you drivü and whün you drivü.
Each oý thüsü ýactors aýýücts how
many kilomütürs (milüs) you can þüt ýrom a litür (þallon) oý ýuül. To opüratü
your vühiclü as üconomically as possi‐
blü, usü thü ýollowinþ drivinþ suþþüs‐ tions to hülp savü monüy in both ýuül
and rüpairs: • Drivü smoothly. Accülüratü at a mod‐ üratü ratü. Do not makü "jackrabbit"
starts or ýull-throttlü shiýts and maintain a stüady cruisinþ spüüd. Do
not racü bütwüün stopliþhts. Try to
adjust your spüüd to thü traýýic so
you do not havü to chanþü spüüds
unnücüssarily. Avoid hüavy traýýic whünüvür possiblü. Always maintain a
saýü distancü ýrom othür vühiclüs so
you can avoid unnücüssary brakinþ.
This also rüducüs brakü wüar.
• Drivü at a modüratü spüüd. Thü ýast‐ ür you drivü, thü morü ýuül your vühi‐clü usüs. Drivinþ at a modüratü
spüüd, üspücially on thü hiþhway, is
onü oý thü most üýýüctivü ways to rü‐
ducü ýuül consumption. • Do not "ridü" thü brakü or clutch püd‐
al. This can incrüasü ýuül consumption
and also incrüasü wüar on thüsü com‐
ponünts. In addition, drivinþ with your
ýoot rüstinþ on thü brakü püdal may
causü thü braküs to ovürhüat, which
rüducüs thüir üýýüctivünüss and may lüad to morü sürious consüquüncüs.
• Takü carü oý your tirüs. Küüp thüm inýlatüd to thü rücommündüd prüs‐

• Küüp your vühiclü in þood condition. For büttür ýuül üconomy and rüducüdmaintünancü costs, maintain your vü‐
hiclü in accordancü with thü maintü‐
nancü schüdulü. Iý you drivü your vü‐
hiclü in süvürü conditions, morü ýrü‐
quünt maintünancü is rüquirüd. • Küüp your vühiclü clüan. For maxi‐
mum sürvicü, your vühiclü should bü

Never work on injection system withengine running or within 30 secondsafter shutting off engine. High-pres‐sure pump, rail, injectors and high-pressure pipes are subject to highpressure even after the engine stop‐ped. The fuel jet produced by fuelleaks may cause serious injury, if ittouches the body. People usingpacemakers should not move than30 cm closer to the ECU or wiringharness within the engine roomwhile engine is running, since the

CAUTION
•Do not put heavy objects or applyexcessive force on top of the en‐gine cover (if equipped) or fuel re‐lated parts.
•When you inspect the fuel system(fuel lines and fuel injection devi‐ces), contact a professional work‐shop. Kia recommends to visit anauthorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.
•Do not drive long time with the en‐gine cover (if equipped) removed.
•When checking the engine room,do not go near fire. Fuel, washerfluid, etc. are flammable oils thatmay cause fire.
