Maintenance
If the headlights or other electrical com-
ponents do not work and the fuses are
OK, check the fuse panel in the engine
compartment. If a fuse is blown, it mustbe replaced.G210101AHM
Memory fuse (SHUNT connector)
Your vehicle is equipped with a memory
fuse (SHUNT connector) to prevent bat-
tery discharge if your vehicle is parked
without being operated for prolonged
periods. Use the following procedures
before parking the vehicle for prolonged
periods.
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Turn off the headlights and tail lights.
3. Open the driver’s side panel cover andpull out the memory fuse (SHUNT connector).
✽✽ NOTICE
 If the memory fuse is pulled out from the fuse panel, the warning chime,
audio, clock and interior lamps, etc.,
will not operate. Some items must be
reset after replacement. Refer to
“Battery” in this section.
 Even though the memory fuse is
pulled out, the battery can still be dis-
charged by operation of the head-
lights or other electrical devices.

Engine compartment fuse replacement
1. Turn the ignition switch and all other
switches off.
2. Remove the fuse panel cover by pressing the tab and pulling the cover
up. 3. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it
is blown. To remove or insert the fuse,use the fuse puller in the engine com-
partment fuse panel.
4. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips.
If it fits loosely, consult an authorized
Kia dealer.
G210201AUN
Main fuse
If the main fuse is blown, it must be
removed as follows:
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the nuts shown in the pictureabove.
3. Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.
4. Reinstall in the reverse order of removal.
✽✽ NOTICE
If the main fuse is blown, consult an
authorized Kia dealer.
CAUTION
After checking the fuse panel in the engine compartment, securely
install the fuse panel cover. If not,electrical failures may occur fromwater contact.OHM078026L

G270201AUN
Canister
Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the
onboard canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the
canister are drawn into the surge tank
through the purge control solenoid valve. G270202AHM
Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is con-
trolled by the Engine Control Module
(ECM); when the engine coolant temper-
ature is low during idling, the PCSV clos-
es so that evaporated fuel is not taken
into the engine. After the engine warms
up during ordinary driving, the PCSV
opens to introduce evaporated fuel to the
engine.G270300AUN
3. Exhaust emission control
system
The Exhaust Emission Control System is
a highly effective system which controls
exhaust emissions while maintaining
good vehicle performance.
G270301BUN
Vehicle modifications
This vehicle should not be modified.
Modification of your vehicle could affect
its performance, safety or durability and
may even violate governmental safety
and emissions regulations.
In addition, damage or performance
problems resulting from any modification
may not be covered under warranty.
If you use unauthorized electronic devices, it may cause the vehicle to
operate abnormally, wire damage, bat-
tery discharge and fire. For your safety,
do not use unauthorized electronic
devices. G270302AUN
Engine exhaust gas precautions
(carbon monoxide)
Carbon monoxide can be present with other exhaust fumes. Therefore, if you
smell exhaust fumes of any kind inside
your vehicle, have it inspected and
repaired immediately. If you ever sus-
pect exhaust fumes are coming into
your vehicle, drive it only with all the
windows fully open. Have your vehicle
checked and repaired immediately.
WARNING - Exhaust
Engine exhaust gases contain car-
bon monoxide (CO). Though color-
less and odorless, it is dangerousand could be lethal if inhaled.
Follow the instructions on this
page to avoid CO poisoning.

Maintenance
Diesel Particulate Filter (if equipped)
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) sys-
tem removes the soot emitted from the
vehicle.
Unlike a disposable air filter, the DPF
system automatically burns (oxidizes)
and removes the accumulated soot
according to the driving condition. In
other words, the active burning by engine
control system and high exhaust gas
temperature caused by normal/high driv-
ing condition burns and removes the
accumulated soot.
However, if the vehicle continues to be
driven at low speed for long time, the
accumulated soot may not be automati-
cally removed because of low exhaust
gas temperature. In this particular case,the amount of soot is out of detection
limit, the soot oxidation process by
engine control system may not happen
and the malfunction indicator light may
blink. When the malfunction indicator light
blinks, it may stop blinking by driving the
vehicle at more than 60 km/h (37 mph) orat more than second gear with 1500 ~
2000 engine rpm for a certain time (for
about 25 minutes).If the malfunction indicator light contin-
ues to be blinked in spite of the proce-
dure, please visit an authorized Kia deal-
er and then check the DPF system.
If you continue to drive with the malfunc-
tion indicator light blinking for a long time,the DPF system can be damaged and
fuel consumption can be worsen.
CAUTION -
Diesel Fuel
(if equipped with DPF)
It is recommended to use the regu- lated automotive diesel fuel fordiesel vehicle equipped with the
DPF system.
If you use diesel fuel including highsulfur (more than 50 ppm sulfur)and unspecified additives, it can cause the DPF system to be dam-
aged and white smoke can be emit-ted.

I040100DUN Recommended SAE viscosity
number Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an
effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil
flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils
can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance, however, higher
viscosity engine oils are required for sat-
isfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using
oils of any viscosity other than those rec-ommended could result in engine dam-
age.When choosing an oil, consider the range
of temperature your vehicle will be oper-
ated in before the next oil change.Proceed to select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area
around any filler plug, drain plug, or
dipstick before checking or drain-ing any lubricant. This is especiallyimportant in dusty or sandy areas
and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plugand dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that could
be damaged.

: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE
5W-20* 2
(API SM / ILSAC GF-4/ACEA A5). However, if the engine oil is not available in your
country, select the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.
* 2
: In Middle East, do not use the engine oil of viscosity grade SAE 5W-20.
* 3
: It is only for extreme cold area and to be restricted by driving condition and area.
(Especially, not recommended for sustained high loaded and high speed operation.)
