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 water in itsbottom.
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 illuminates,
we recommend that the system
be serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer.
Extracting air from the fuel filter
If you drive until you have no fuel left or if
you replace the fuel filter, be sure to
extract air from the fuel system as it
makes it difficult to start the engine.
1. Open the plug (A).
2. Pump up and down (1) approximately50 times until the pump is hard.
3. If fuel comes out through the nipple, close it by the plug (A).
4. Extract air from the fuel filter by remov- ing the bolt with a cross-tip screw driv- er and reinstall the bolt. 5. Pump up and down (1) approximately
15 times.
6. Extract air from the fuel filter by remov- ing the bolt with a cross-tip screw driv-er and reinstall the bolt.
