Normal Maintenance Schedule - For Diesel Engine [Except Europe (Including Russia)]
The following maintenance services must be performed to ensure good emission control and performance. Keep receipts for
all vehicle emission services to protect your warranty. Where both mileage and time are shown, the frequency of service is determined by whichever occurs first.
NO.ITEMREMARK
*1 Engine oil and engine oil filter Check the engine oil level and leak every 500 km (350 miles) or before start‐ ing a long trip.
*2 Engine oil and engine oil filter (For
Diesel Engine) • The engine oil level should be checked regularly and maintained properly.
Operating with an insufficient amount oil can damage the engine, and suchdamage is not covered by warranty.
• This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or equivalent">. If the diesel fuel speci‐fications don't meet the EN590, it must be replaced according to the severe
maintenance schedule.
*3 Coolant (Engine) When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water for your vehicle
and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at the factory. An improper
coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine damage.
*4 Drive belts (Engine) • Adjust alternator, water pump and air conditioner (if equipped) drive belt.
Inspect and if necessary repair or replace.
• Inspect drive belt tensioner, idler and alternator pulley and if necessary cor‐ rect or replace.
*5 Manual transaxle fluid Manual transaxle fluid should be changed anytime it has been submerged in
water.

EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
Engine oil and filter
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule. If the vehi‐
cle is being driven in severe conditions,
more frequent oil and filter changes are required.
Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil satu‐ ration and replace if necessary. Drive
belts should be checked periodically for
proper tension and adjusted as neces‐
sary.
CAUTION
When you are inspecting the belt,place the ignition switch in theLOCK/OFF or ACC position.
Fuel filter cartridge (for diesel)
A clogged filter can limit the speed at
which the vehicle may be driven, dam‐
age the emission system and cause multiple issues such as hard starting. If
an excessive amount of foreign matter
accumulates in the fuel tank, the filter may require replacement more fre‐
quently.
After installing a new filter, run the en‐
gine for several minutes, and check for leaks at the connections. Have the fuel
filter replaced by a professional work‐
shop. Kia recommends to visit an au‐ thorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Fuel filter (for gasoline)
Kia gasoline vehicle is equipped a life‐
time fuel filter that integrated with the fuel tank. Regular maintenance or re‐
placement is not needed but depends
on fuel quality. If there are some im‐ portant safety matters like fuel flow
restriction, surging, loss of power, hard
starting problem etc, fuel filter inspec‐ tion or replace is needed.
Have the fuel filter inspected or re‐
placed by a professional workshop. Kia
recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and damage. Have the fuel lines, fuel hoses and con‐
nections replaced by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
nDiesel only
Never work on the injection systemwith the engine running or within 30seconds after shutting off the en‐gine. High pressure pump, rail, injec‐tors and high pressure pipes aresubject to high pressure even afterthe engine stops. The fuel jet pro‐duced by fuel leaks may cause seri‐ous injury, if it touches the body.People using pacemakers should notmore move than 30 cm closer to theECU or wiring harness within the en‐gine room while the engine is run‐ning, since the high currents in theCommon Rail system produce con‐siderable magnetic fields.

(Continued)
Be very careful not to touch the ra‐diator hose when checking or addingthe engine oil as it may be hotenough to burn you.
5. Pull the dipstick out again andcheck the level. The level should be
between F (Full) and L (Low).
CAUTION
•Do not overfill the engine oil. Itmay damage the engine.
•Do not spill engine oil, when add‐ing or changing engine oil. If youdrop the engine oil on the engineroom, wipe it off immediately.
•When you wipe the oil levelgauge, you should wipe it with aclean cloth. When mixed withdebris, it can cause engine dam‐age.

left on while the vehicle was not in
use), recharge it by slow charging
(trickle) for 10 hours.
• If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge it
at 20-30A for two hours.
