Valve clearance
(for petrol engine)
(Except for Nu 2.0 Engine)
Inspect excessive valve noise and/or
engine vibration and adjust if neces-
sary. We recommend that the valve
clearance be serviced by an autho-
rised Kia dealer. Cooling system
Check the cooling system parts, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses
and connections for leakage and dam-
age. Replace any damaged parts. Coolant The coolant should be changed at
the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule.
Manual transaxle fluid (if equipped)
Inspect the manual transaxle fluid according to the maintenance sched-
ule. Automatic transaxle fluid (if equipped)
Automatic transaxle fluid should not
be checked under normal usage
conditions.
But in severe conditions, we recom-
mend that the system be serviced by
an authorised Kia dealer in accor-
dance to the maintenance schedule.
✽✽
NOTICE
Automatic transaxle fluid colour is
basically red.
As the vehicle is driven, the auto-
matic transaxle fluid will begin to
look darker.
It is normal condition and you should
not judge the need to replace the fluid
based upon the changed colour.Dual clutch transmission fluid (if equipped)
Inspect the dual clutch transmission fluid according to the maintenance
schedule.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified fluid could result in transaxle mal-function and failure.
Use only specified automatictransaxle fluid. (Refer to “Recommended lubricants andcapacities” in chapter 9.)

WASHER FLUID
Checking the washer fluid
level
Check the fluid level in the washer
fluid reservoir and add fluid if neces-
sary.
Plain water may be used if washer
fluid is not available. However, use
washer solvent with antifreeze char-
acteristics in cold climates to preventfreezing. Checking the parking brake
Check the stroke of the parking
brake by counting the number of
“clicks’’ heard whilst fully applying it
from the released position. Also, the
parking brake alone should securely
hold the vehicle on a fairly steep
grade. If the stroke is more or less
than specified, we recommend that
the system be serviced by an autho-
rised Kia dealer.
Stroke : 5~7 “clicks’’ at a force of
20 kg (44 lbs, 196 N).
ORP072009
WARNING - Coolant
Do not use radiator coolant or antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir.
Radiator coolant can severely obscure visibility when
sprayed on the windscreen
and may cause loss of vehicle
control or damage to paint
and body trim.
Windscreen Washer fluid agents contain some amountsof alcohol and can be flamma-
ble under certain circum-
stances. Do not allow sparksor flame to contact the washerfluid or the washer fluid reser-
voir. Damage to the vehicle or
occupants could occur.
Windscreen washer fluid is poisonous to humans and
animals. Do not drink and
avoid contacting windscreen
washer fluid. Serious injury or
death could occur.

FUEL FILTER (FOR DIESEL)
Draining water from fuel filter
The fuel filter for diesel engine plays
an important role of separating water
from fuel and accumulating the waterin its bottom.
If water accumulates in the fuel filter,
the warning light comes on when the
ignition switch is in the ON position. If this warning light illumi-
nates, we recommend that
the system be serviced by
an authorised Kia dealer. Filter replacement
It must be replaced when necessary,
and should not be washed.
You can clean the filter when inspect- ing the air cleaner element.
Clean the filter by using compressed
air.
1. Loosen the air cleaner cover
attaching clips and open the cover.
CAUTION
If the water accumulated in the
fuel filter is not drained at prop-er times, damages to the major parts such as the fuel systemcan be caused by water perme-ation in the fuel filter.
