✽NOTICEIf the fuel filler lid will not open in cold

frozen, push or lightly tap the lid.

(Continued)
DO NOT use matches or a lighter
and DO NOT SMOKE or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle while at a
gas station especially during
refueling. Automotive fuel is high-
ly flammable and can, when ignit-
ed, result in fire.
If a fire breaks out during refuel- ing, leave the vicinity of the vehi-
cle, and immediately contact the
manager of the gas station and
then contact the local fire depart-
ment or 911.
CAUTION
Make sure to refuel with unleaded fuel only.
Check to make sure the fuel filler cap is securely closed after refu-eling. A loose fuel filler cap may cause the "Check Engine"(Malfunction Indicator) light in the instrument panel to illuminateunnecessarily.
If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, use only a genuineKia cap or the equivalent speci-fied for your vehicle. An incorrect fuel filler cap can result in a seri-ous malfunction of the fuel sys- tem or emission control system.
Do not spill fuel on the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Any typeof fuel spilled on painted surfacesmay damage the paint.

remotely with the control levers or remote
switch, depending on the type of mirror
control installed. The mirror heads can be
folded back to prevent damage during an
automatic car wash or when passing in a
narrow street.
