WARNING
- Refueling
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it
can cause serious injuries.
Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap is
venting fuel or if you hear a
hissing sound, wait until the
condition stops before com-
pletely removing the cap.
CAUTION
To avoid injury from sharp
objects, it is recommended that
protective gloves be worn if
there is a need to open the fuel
filler door manually.

WARNING
Automotive fuels are flamma-
ble/explosive materials. When
refueling, please note the fol-
lowing guidelines carefully.
Failure to follow these guide-
lines may result in severe per-
sonal injury, severe burns or
death by fire or explosion.
Before refueling always note
the location of the Emergency
Gasoline Shut-Off, if available,
at the gas station facility.
Before touching the fuel noz-
zle or fuel filler cap, you
should eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity
discharge by touching anoth-
er metal part of the front of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle, or other gas source.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refuel-
ing. Do not touch, rub or slide
against any item or fabric
(polyester, satin, nylon, etc.)
capable of producing static
electricity. Static electricity
discharge can ignite fuel
vapors resulting in explosion.
If you must re-enter the vehi-
cle, you should once again
eliminate potentially danger-
ous static electricity dis-
charge by touching a metal
part of the vehicle, away from
the fuel filler neck, nozzle or
other gasoline source.
When using a portable fuel
container be sure to place the
container on the ground prior
to refueling. Static electricity
discharge from the container
can ignite fuel vapors causing
a fire. Once refueling has
begun, contact with the vehi-
cle should be maintained until
the filling is complete.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Use only portable fuel con-
tainers designed to carry and
store gasoline.
Do not use cellular phones
around a gas station or while
refueling any vehicle. Electric
current and/or electronic
interference from cellular
phones can potentially ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire. If
you must use your cellular
phone use it in a place away
from the gas station.
When refueling always shut
the engine off. Sparks pro-
duced by electrical compo-
nents related to the engine
can ignite fuel vapors causing
a fire. Always insure that the
engine is OFF before and dur-
ing refueling. Once refueling
is complete, check to make
sure the fuel filler cap and
door are securely closed,
before starting the engine. You
should hear 3 "clicks" when
closing the fuel cap.

Knowing your vehicle
✽ ✽
NOTICE• Make sure to refuel with gasoline
(unleaded fuel) only (for the gaso-
line engine vehicles).
• Check to make sure the fuel filler
cap is securely closed after refuel-
ing.
• If the fuel filler cap requires
replacement, use only a genuine
Kia cap or the equivalent specified
for your vehicle. An incorrect fuel
filler cap can result in a serious
malfunction of the fuel system or
emission control system. Correct
replacement caps are available at
authorized Kia dealers.
• Do not spill fuel on the exterior
surfaces of the vehicle. Any type of
fuel spilled on painted surfaces
may damage the paint.
• A loose fuel filler cap may cause
the “Check Engine” (Malfunction
Indicator) light in the instrument
panel to illuminate unnecessarily.
• If the fuel filler lid will not open in
cold weather because the area
around it is frozen, push or lightly
tap the lid.
(Continued)
Do not light any fire around a
gas station. DO NOT use
matches or a lighter and DO
NOT SMOKE or leave a lit cig-
arette in your vehicle while at
a gas station especially during
refueling. Automotive fuel is
highly flammable and can,
when ignited, result in explo-
sion and fire.
If a fire breaks out during refu-
eling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gas
station or contact the police
and local fire department.
Follow any safety instructions
they provide.

CAUTION
Do not place objects on the
tonneau cover. Such objects
may be thrown about inside
the vehicle and possibly injure
vehicle occupants during an
accident or when braking.
Since the tonneau cover may
be damaged or malformed, do
not put the luggage on it when
it is used.
For better fuel economy, do
not carry unnecessary weight.
Never allow anyone to ride in
the luggage compartment. It is
designed for luggage only.
Try to maintain the balance of
the vehicle and locate the
weight as far forward as pos-
sible.

R (reverse)Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.✽ ✽
NOTICEAlways come to a complete stop
before shifting into or out of R
(Reverse); you may damage the
transaxle if you shift into R while
the vehicle is in motion, except as
explained in “Rocking the Vehicle”,
in this manual.
N (neutral)The wheels and transaxle are not
locked. The vehicle will roll freely
even on the slightest incline unless
the parking brake or service brakes
are applied.
D (drive)This is the normal forward driving
position. The transaxle will automati-
cally shift through a 4-gear
sequence, providing the best fuel
economy and power.
For extra power when passing anoth-
er vehicle or climbing grades,
depress the accelerator fully, at
which time the transaxle will auto-
matically downshift to the next lower
gear.

Engine temperature gauge This gauge shows the temperature
of the engine coolant when the igni-
tion switch is ON.
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “Overheating” in the
Index.✽ ✽
NOTICEIf the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the
“H” position, it indicates overheat-
ing that may damage the engine.
Fuel gaugeThe fuel gauge indicates the approx-
imate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank.
Fuel tank capacity :
- 58 liters (15.3 gallons)
for 2.0L engine
- 65 liters (17.1 gallons)
for 2.7L engine
The fuel gauge is supplemented by a
low fuel warning light, which will illu-
minate when the fuel level has
dropped to about 9~10 liters (2.4~2.6
gallons).
OdometerThe odometer indicates the total dis-
tance the vehicle has been driven.
