•Working under the hood with theengine running is dangerous. It be‐comes even more dangerous whenyou wear jewelry or loose clothing.These can become entangled inmoving parts and result in injury.Therefore, if you must run the en‐gine while working under the hood,make certain that you remove alljewelry (especially rings, bracelets,watches, and necklaces) and allneckties, scarves, and similar looseclothing before getting near theengine or cooling fans.
CAUTION
•Do not put heavy objects or applyexcessive force on top of the en‐gine cover (if equipped) or fuel re‐lated parts.
•When you inspect the fuel system(fuel lines and fuel injection devi‐ces), contact a professional work‐shop. Kia recommends to visit anauthorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.

•Do not drive long time with the en‐gine cover (if equipped) removed.
•When checking the engine room,do not go near fire.Fuel, washer fluid, etc. are flam‐mable oils that may cause fire.
•Before touching the battery, igni‐tion cables and electrical wiring,you should disconnect the battery"-" terminal. You may get an elec‐tric shock from the electric cur‐rent.
•When you remove the interior trimcover with a flat bed (-) driver, becareful not to damage the cover.
•Be careful when you replace andclean bulbs to avoid burns or elec‐trical shock.

Maintenance

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
Have the air cleaner filter replaced by a
professional workshop. Kia recom‐ mends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/
service partner.
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.
Valve clearance (for Kappa 1.0L
T-GDI engine)
Inspect for excessive valve noise and/or
engine vibration and adjust if necessa‐ ry. In this case, have the system serv‐
iced by a professional workshop. Kia
recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Cooling system
Check the cooling system components,
such as the radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and connections for leakage and
damage. Replace any damaged parts.
Coolant
The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule.
Manual transaxle fluid (if
equipped)
Inspect the manual transaxle fluid ac‐
cording to the maintenance schedule.
Automatic transaxle fluid (if
equipped)
Automatic transaxle fluid should not be
checked under normal usage conditions.
Have the automatic transmission fluid changed by a professional workshop
according to the maintenance schedule.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
NOTICE
Automatic transaxle fluid color is ba‐
sically red.
As the vehicle is driven, the auto‐
matic transaxle fluid will begin to
look darker. It is normal condition
and you should not judge the need

ENGINE COOLANT
The high-pressure cooling system has
a reservoir filled with year round anti‐
freeze coolant. The reservoir is filled at the factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at the
beginning of the winter season, and be‐ fore traveling to a colder climate.
CAUTION
•When the engine overheats fromlow engine coolant, suddenly add‐ing engine coolant may causecracks in the engine. To preventdamage, add engine coolant slowlyin small quantities.
•Do not drive with no engine cool‐ant. It may cause water pump fail‐ure and engine seizure, etc.
Checking the coolant level
WARNING
Removing radiator cap
•Never attempt to remove the radi‐ator cap while the engine is oper‐ating or hot. Doing so might leadto cooling system and engine dam‐age. Also, hot coolant or steamcould cause serious personal in‐jury.
•Turn the engine off and wait untilit cools down. Use extreme carewhen removing the radiator cap.Wrap a thick towel around it, andturn it counterclockwise slowly tothe first stop. Step back while thepressure is released from the cool‐ing system.When you are sure all the pressurehas been released, press down onthe cap, using a thick towel, andcontinue turning counterclockwiseto remove it.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Even if the engine is not operating,do not remove the radiator cap orthe drain plug while the engine andradiator are hot. Hot coolant andsteam may still blow out underpressure, causing serious injury.
WARNING
The electric motor (cool‐ing fan) is controlled byengine coolant tempera‐ture, refrigerant pressureand vehicle speed.
It may sometimes operate evenwhen the engine is not running. Useextreme caution when working nearthe blades of the cooling fan so thatyou are not injured by a rotating fanblades. As the engine coolant tem‐perature decreases, the electric mo‐tor will automatically shut off. Thisis a normal condition.

Check the condition and connections of
all cooling system hoses and heater ho‐ ses. Replace any swollen or deteriora‐
ted hoses.
The coolant level should be filled be‐
tween MAX and MIN (F and L) marks on the side of the coolant reservoir when
the engine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
distilled (deionized) or soft water. Bring the level to MAX (F), but do not overfill.
If frequent additions are required, have
the system inspected by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Recommended engine coolant
• When adding coolant, use only deion‐ ized water or soft water for your ve‐
hicle and never mix hard water in the
coolant filled at the factory. An im‐
proper coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine dam‐
age.
• The engine in your vehicle has alumi‐ num engine parts and must be pro‐
tected by an ethylene-glycol with
phosphate based coolant to prevent corrosion and freezing.
• DO NOT USE alcohol or methanol coolant or mix them with the speci‐
fied coolant.
• Do not use a solution that contains more than 60% antifreeze or lessthan 35% antifreeze, which would re‐
duce the effectiveness of the solu‐
tion.
For mixture percentage, refer to the
following table.
