POWER STEERING FLUID
Checking the power steering
fluid level
With the vehicle on level ground,
check the fluid level in the power
steering reservoir periodically. The
fluid should be between MAX and
MIN marks on the side of the gauge
at the normal temperature.
Before adding power steering fluid, thoroughly clean the area around the
reservoir cap to prevent power steer-ing fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the
MAX level.
✽✽ NOTICE
Check that the fluid level is in the
"HOT" range on the gauge. If the
fluid is cold, check that it is in the
"COLD" range.
In the event the power steering system
requires frequent additions of fluid, werecommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
Use only the specified power steering fluid. (Refer to "Recommended lubri-cants or capacities" in section 8.)
Checking the power steering hose
Check the connections for oil leaks,
damage and twists in the power
steering hose before driving.
OKH073007L
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the power steering pump, do not operatethe vehicle for prolonged peri- ods with a low power steeringfluid level.
Never start the engine when the reservoir tank is empty.
When adding fluid, be careful that dirt does not get into thetank.
Too little fluid can result in increased steering effort and/ornoise from the power steeringsystem.
(Continued)
(Continued) The use of the non-specified fluid could reduce the effective-ness of the power steering sys-tem and cause damage to it.

FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bol-
ster, another is in the engine com-
partment.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside thefuse will be melted.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver’s sidefuse panel.
Before replacing a blown fuse, dis-
connect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with
one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and we
recommend that you consult an
authorized Kia dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type, and fusible link for higher
amperage ratings. ✽
✽
NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label
may differ from equipped items.
WARNING - Fuse replace-
ment
Never replace a fuse with any- thing but another fuse of the same rating.
A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a
fire.
Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse
even as a temporary repair. It
may cause extensive wiring
damage and a possible fire.
Do not arbitrarily modify or add- on electric wiring of the vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to removefuses because it may cause ashort circuit and damage the system.

3. Pull the suspected fuse straight
out. Use the removal tool provided
in the engine compartment fusepanel.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly
in the clips.
If it fits loosely, we recommend that
you consult an authorized Kia dealer. If you do not have a spare, use a fuse
of the same rating from a circuit you
may not need for operating the vehi-
cle, such as the cigarette lighter fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the
fuses are OK, check the fuse panel
in the engine compartment. If a fuse
is blown, it must be replaced.
Fuse switch
Always, put the fuse switch at the ON position.
If you move the switch to the OFF position, some items such as audio
and digital clock must be reset and
transmitter (or smart key) may not
work properly.

Maintenance
Engine compartment fuse replacement
1. Turn the Engine Start/Stop buttonand all other switches off. 2. Remove the fuse panel cover by
pressing the tab and pulling the
cover up. When the blade type fuse
is disconnected, remove it by using
the clip designed for changing fuseslocated in the engine room fuse
box. Upon removal, securely insert
reserve fuse of equal quantity.
3. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown. To remove or insert
the fuse, use the fuse puller in the
engine compartment 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, we recommend
that you consult an authorized Kia
dealer.
CAUTION
After checking the fuse panel in the engine compartment,securely install the fuse panelcover. If not, electrical failures may occur from water contact.

CAUTION
Always place the fuse switch in the ON position while driv-ing the vehicle.
Do not move the transportation fuse switch repeatedly. Thefuse switch may be worn out.
Place fuse switch in the "OFF" position to discharge the bat-tery in case of parking the vehicle more than a month.

LIGHT BULBS
Use only the bulbs of the specified
wattage.
✽✽ NOTICE
After driving in heavy rain or wash-
ing the vehicle, headlight and tail-
light lenses could appear frosty. This
condition is caused by the tempera-
ture difference between the lamp
inside and outside. This is similar to
the condensation on your windows
inside your vehicle during the rain
and doesn’t indicate a problem with
your vehicle. If the water leaks into
the lamp bulb circuitry, we recom-
mend that the system be checked by
an authorized Kia dealer.WARNING - Working on
the lights
Prior to working on the light, firm-
ly apply the parking brake,
ensure that the Engine Start/Stop
button is in the OFF position and
turn off the lights to avoid sudden
movement of the vehicle and
burning your fingers or receiving
an electric shock.
CAUTION
Be sure to replace the burned- out bulb with one of the samewattage rating. Otherwise, it may cause damage to the fuseor electric wiring system.
CAUTION
If you don’t have necessary tools, the correct bulbs andthe expertise, we recommend that you consult an authorizedKia dealer. In many cases, it isdifficult to replace vehicle light bulbs because otherparts of the vehicle must beremoved before you can get to the bulb. This is especially trueif you have to remove the head-light assembly to get to the bulb(s). Removing/installingthe headlight assembly canresult in damage to the vehicle.
Do not install additional bulb or LED. If you install that, thelamp may not be operatedproperly and fuse box or elec-tric wiring system may have problem.

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 surgetank through the purge control sole-
noid valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve
(PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the Engine Control
Module (ECM); when the engine
coolant temperature is low during
idling, the PCSV closes so that evapo-
rated fuel is not taken into the engine.
After the engine warms-up during ordi-
nary driving, the PCSV opens to intro-
duce evaporated fuel to the engine. 3. Exhaust emission control
system
The Exhaust Emission Control
System is a highly effective system
which controls exhaust emissions
while maintaining good vehicle per-
formance.
Vehicle modifications
This vehicle should not be modified.
Modification of your vehicle could
affect its performance, safety or
durability and may even violate gov-
ernmental safety and emissions reg-
ulations.
In addition, damage or performance
problems resulting from any modifi-
cation may not be covered under
warranty.
If you use unauthorized electronic devices, it may cause the vehicle to
operate abnormally, wire damage,
battery discharge and fire. For your
safety, do not use unauthorized
electronic devices.
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 suspect 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
carbon monoxide (CO). Though
colorless and odorless, it is
dangerous and could be lethal if
inhaled. Follow the instructions
on this page to avoid CO poi-soning.

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 viscosi-
ty engine oils can provide better fuel
economy and cold weather perform-
ance, however, higher viscosity
engine oils are required for satisfac-
tory lubrication in hot weather.Using oils of any viscosity other thanthose recommended could result in
engine damage. When choosing an oil, consider the
range of temperature your vehicle will
be operated in before the next oil
change. Proceed to select the recom-
mended oil viscosity from the chart.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area
around any filler plug, drain
plug, or dipstick before check-
ing or draining any lubricant.
This is especially important in
dusty or sandy areas and when
the vehicle is used on unpaved
roads. Cleaning the plug and
dipstick areas will prevent dirt
and grit from entering the
engine and other mechanisms
that could be damaged.
* 1
: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE
5W-20 (API SM / ILSAC GF-4). 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
: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE
5W-30 (ACEA A5). However, if the engine oil is not available in your country, select the prop-
er engine oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.
