Kia recommends avoiding fuels contain-
ing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether)
over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%
weight) in your vehicle.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may
reduce vehicle performance and produce
vapor lock or hard starting.
Do not use methanol
Fuels containing methanol (wood alco-
hol) should not be used in your vehicle.
This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per-
formance and damage components ofthe fuel system, engine control systemand emission control system.
Fuel Additives
Kia recommends that you use unleaded
gasoline which has an octane rating of
RON (Research Octane Number) 95 / AKI
(Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher (for
Europe) or Octane Rating of RON(Research Octane Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-
Knock Index) 87 or higher (except Europe).
For customers who do not use good
quality gasolines including fuel additives
regularly, and have problems starting or
the engine does not run smoothly, one
bottle of additives added to the fuel tank
at every 15,000km (for Europe)/ 5,000km
(except Europe). Additives are available
from your authorized Kia dealer along
with information on how to use them. Do
not mix other additives.

istration and insurance.

commercially available diesel fuel that
complies with EN 590 or comparable
standard. (EN stands for "European
Norm"). Do not use marine diesel fuel,
heating oils, or non-approved fuel addi-
tives, as this will increase wear andcause damage to the engine and fuel
system. The use of non-approved fuels
and / or fuel additives will result in a limi-
tation of your warranty rights.

perature conditions.

fully : If the engine stops through fuel fail-
ure, the circuits must be completely
purged to permit restarting.
