NORMAL MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
The following maintenance services must be performed to ensure good emission control and performance. Keep
receipts for all vehicle emission services to protect your warranty. Where both mileage and time are shown, the fre-
quency of service is determined by whichever occurs first.
*
1: If TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is not available, one bottle of additive is recommended. Additives are
available from your authorized Kia Premium dealer
along with information on how to use them. Do not
mix other additives.
*
2: Fuel filter & Fuel tank air filter are considered to be maintenance free but periodic inspection is recom-
mended for this maintenance schedule depends on
fuel quality. If there are some important safety matters
like fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power, hard
starting problem etc, replace the fuel filter immediate-
ly regardless of maintenance schedule and consult
an authorized Kia Premium dealer for details.
*
3 : Rear differential oil should be changed anytime rear differential have been submerged in water. *
4 : The drive belt should be replaced when cracks occur
or tension is reduced excessively.
*
5 : Use only the specified automatic transmission fluid. (Refer to "Recommended lubricants and capacities"
in section 8 or the label in the engine room.)
*
6: Inspect for excessive tappet noise and/or engine vibration and adjust if necessary.

2Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute
to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements
are difficult to measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
*
3If the ACEA A5 engine oil is not available in your country, you are able to use API service SL, ILSAC GF-3, ACEA
A3.
