Introduction
A020101AHM-EU
Your new vehicle is designed to use
only unleaded fuel having a pump
octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87
(Research Octane Number 91) or
higher.
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini-
mize exhaust emissions and spark
plug fouling.
Never add any fuel system cleaning
agents to the fuel tank other than
what has been specified. (Consult an
authorized Kia dealer for details.)
Tighten the cap until it clicks once.otherwise the Check Engine
light will illuminate.
A020103AUN-EU
Gasoline containing alcohol and
methanol
Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and
ethanol (also known as grain alcohol),
and gasoline or gasohol containing
methanol (also known as wood alco-
hol) are being marketed along with or
instead of leaded or unleaded gaso-
line.
Pursuant to EPA regulations, ethanol
may be used in your vehicle. Do not
use gasohol containing more than
10% ethanol, and do not use gasoline
or gasohol containing any methanol.
Ethanol provides less energy than
gasoline and it attracts water, and it is
thus likely to reduce your fuel efficien-
cy and could lower your MPG results.
Methanol may cause drivability prob-
lems and damage to the fuel system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any kind
if drivability problems occur. Vehicle
damage or drivability problems may
not be covered by the manufacturer's
warranty if they result from the use of:
1. Gasoline or gasohol containing methanol.
2. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING - Refueling
• Do not "top off" after the nozzle automatically shuts off.
Attempts to force more fuel
into the tank can cause fuel
overflow onto you and the
ground causing a risk of fire.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent
fuel spillage in the event of an
accident.

Tripmeter
TRIP A : Tripmeter A
TRIP B : Tripmeter B
This mode indicates the distance of
individual trips selected since the
last tripmeter reset.
The meter's working range is from
0.0 to 999.9 km (0.0 to 999.9 miles).
Pressing the RESET button, when
the tripmeter (TRIP A or TRIP B) is
being displayed, clears the tripmeter
to zero (0.0). Distance to empty (km or mi.)
This mode indicates the estimated
distance to empty based on the cur-
rent fuel in the fuel tank and the
amount of fuel delivered to the
engine. When the remaining distance
is below 50 km (30 miles), “---” will be
displayed and the distance to empty
indicator (RANGE) will blink until the
vehicle is refueled.
The meter’s working range is from 50
to 990 km (30 to 990 miles).Average fuel consumption
(l/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the average
fuel consumption from the total fuel
used and the distance since the last
average consumption reset. The total
fuel used is calculated from the fuel
consumption input. For an accurate
calculation, drive more than 50 m
(0.03 miles).
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the average
fuel consumption is being displayed,
clears the average fuel consumption
to zero (--.-).

Features of your vehicle
If the vehicle speed exceeds 1 km/h
(1.6 MPH) after refueled more than 6
l(1.6 gallons), the average fuel con-
sumption will be cleared to zero (--.-).
Instant fuel consumption (if equipped)
(l/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the instant fuel
consumption during the last few sec-
onds. If the vehicle is not on level ground
or the battery power has been
interrupted, the “Distance to
empty” function may not operate
correctly.
The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 6 liters
(1.6 gallons) of fuel are added to
the vehicle.
The fuel consumption and distance to empty values may vary signifi-
cantly based on driving conditions,
driving habits, and condition of the
vehicle.
The distance to empty value is an estimate of the available driving
distance. This value may differ from
the actual driving distance avail-
able.
