NORMAL MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE - FOR GASOLINE ENGINE [FOR EUROPE (EXCEPT RUSSIA)]
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 frequency of service is determined by whichever occurs first.
NO.ITEMREMARK
*1 Coolant (Engine / Inverter) When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water for your vehicle
and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at the factory. An improper
coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine damage.
*2 Engine oil and engine oil filter Check the engine oil level and leak every 500 km (350 miles) or before start‐ing a long trip.
*3 Fuel additives (Gasoline) Kia recommends that you use unleaded gasoline which has an octane rating
of RON (Research Octane Number) 95 / AKI (Antiknock Index) 91 or higher
(for Europe) or Octane Rating of RON (Research Octane Number) 91 / AKI(Antiknock 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 15,000 km (for Eu‐rope, Australia and New Zealand)/10,000 km (except Europe, Australia andNew Zealand).
Additives are available from your authorized Kia dealer along with informa‐
tion on how to use them. Do not mix other additives.
*4 HSG (Hybrid Starter & Generator) belt Inspect HSG belt for evidence of cuts, crocks, excessive wear or oil saturation
and replace if necessary. If drive belt noise occurred, readjust drive belt ten‐
sion before replace.
*5 Spark plug For your convenience, it can be replaced prior to it's interval when you domaintenance of other items.

EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
Engine oil and filter
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule. If the vehi‐
cle is being driven in severe conditions,
more frequent oil and filter changes are required.
HSG (hybrid starter &
generator) belt
The HSG belt should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.
Fuel filter (for gasoline)
Kia gasoline vehicle is equipped a life‐
time fuel filter that integrated with the fuel tank. Regular maintenance or re‐
placement is not needed but depends
on fuel quality. If there are some im‐ portant safety matters like fuel flow
restriction, surging, loss of power, hard
starting problem etc, fuel filter inspec‐ tion or replace is needed.
We recommend that the fuel filter be
Inspected or replaced by an authorized
Kia dealer.
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and damage. We recommend that the fuel lines, fuel
hoses and connections be replaced by
an authorized Kia dealer.
Vapor hose (for gasoline engine)
and fuel filler cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those intervals
specified in the maintenance schedule.
Make sure that a new vapor hose or
fuel filler cap is correctly replaced.
Vacuum crankcase ventilation
hoses (if equipped)
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi‐
dence of heat and/or mechanical dam‐ age. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking,
tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessive
swelling indicate deterioration. Particu‐ lar attention should be paid to examine
those hose surfaces nearest to high
heat sources, such as the exhaust manifold. Inspect the hose routing to assure that
the hoses do not come in contact with
any heat source, sharp edges or mov‐ ing component which might cause heat
damage or mechanical wear. Inspect all
hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make sure they are se‐
cure, and that no leaks are present. Ho‐
ses should be replaced immediately if there is any evidence of deterioration
or damage.
Air cleaner filter
We recommend that the air cleaner fil‐
ter be replaced by an authorized Kia dealer.
Spark plugs (for gasoline engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs of
the correct heat range.
WARNING
Do not disconnect and inspect sparkplugs when the engine is hot. Youmay burn yourself.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The emission control system of your vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. Please see the warranty in‐
formation contained in the Warranty & Maintenance book in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is equipped with an emis‐
sion control system to meet all applica‐
ble emission regulations.
There are three emission control sys‐ tems, as follows. 1. Crankcase emission control system
2. Evaporative emission control sys‐ tem
3. Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is
recommended that you have your vehi‐ cle inspected and maintained by an au‐
thorized Kia dealer in accordance with
the maintenance schedule in this man‐ ual.
Caution for the Inspection and Mainte‐nance Test (With Electronic StabilityControl (ESC) system)
•To prevent the vehicle from misfiringduring dynamometer testing, turnthe Electronic Stability Control (ESC)system off by pressing the ESCswitch. •
After dynamometer testing is com‐pleted, turn the ESC system back onby pressing the ESC switch again.
1. Crankcase emission control
system
The positive crankcase ventilation sys‐
tem is employed to prevent air pollu‐ tion caused by blow-by gases being
emitted from the crankcase. This sys‐
tem supplies fresh filtered air to the crankcase through the air intake hose.
Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mix‐
es with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve into the induc‐
tion system.
2. Evaporative emission control
system
The Evaporative Emission Control Sys‐
tem is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere.
Canister
Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel
tank are absorbed and stored in the on‐ board canister. When the engine is run‐
ning, the fuel vapors absorbed in the
canister are drawn into the surge tank through the purge control solenoid
valve.
Purge control solenoid valve (PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is con‐ trolled by the Engine Control Module
(ECM); when the engine coolant tem‐
perature is low during idling, the PCSV closes 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.
3. Exhaust emission control
system
The Exhaust Emission Control System
is a highly effective system which con‐
trols exhaust emissions while maintain‐
ing good vehicle performance.
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 modifica‐ tion may not be covered under warran‐
ty.
