In Case Of An Emergency6-22
Once the lug nuts have been tightened, lower the
vehicle fully to the ground and continue to tighten the
lug nuts until they are completely secured.
If you are unsure of the tightness of the wheel lug nuts,
have them checked at the nearest service station. The
specified tightening torque is 103 N.
m (76 ft. lb.).
CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads on the wheel studs
and nuts. During wheel removal, make certain
that the same nuts removed are reinstalled - or, if
replaced, that nuts with metric threads and the
same configuration are used. Installation of a non-
metric thread nut on a metric stud or vice-versa
will not secure the wheel to the hub properly and
will damage the stud so that it must be replaced.
Be sure to use extreme care in checking for thread
style before installing aftermarket lug nuts or
wheels. If in doubt, consult an Authorized Kia
Dealer. Damaged studs may result in wheel loss
and personal injury.
10. Remove the lug nuts by turning them
counterclockwise, then remove the wheel.
11. Mount the spare tire into position and tighten the
nuts by hand. Install the lug nuts with the beveled
edge inward.
12. Turn the jack handle counterclockwise and lower
the vehicle until it touches the ground. Tighten the
lug nuts firmly in an “X’’ pattern.

9. Re-install the oil filler cap securely.
10. Start the engine and inspect around the oil filter
seal for leaks. Stop the engine.
Check the oil level and fill to the F mark, if
necessary.
Oil Capacity
Without filter change : 3.2 L (3.38 US qt.)
With filter change : 3.4 L (3.59 US qt.)
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer to
“Recommended Lubricants’’ later in this section.)
Engine Cooling SystemThe cooling system is a high-pressure type with a
reservoir and is filled with year-round antifreeze
coolant at the factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and coolant level
at least once a year, at the beginning of the winter
season, and before traveling to a colder climate.
Maintenance7-16
✻ ✻
NOTICE
Follow these instructions carefully. An
improper oil filter installation can cause oil
leakage and engine damage.
Although oil filters may have the same
external appearance, their internal designs
differ significantly. These filters are not
interchangeable. To avoid potential engine
damage, use only the specified filter. Consult
an Authorized Kia Dealer.

Parking BrakeChecking the Parking BrakeCheck the stroke of the parking brake by counting the
number of “clicks’’ heard while fully applying it from
the released position. Also, the parking brake alone
should securely hold the vehicle on a fairly steep
grade.
If the number of “clicks’’ is more or less than
specified, have the parking brake adjusted by an
Authorized Kia Dealer.
Stroke:
4-6 “clicks’’ at a force of 98N (22 lbs.).

Battery MaintenanceFor best battery service:
Keep the battery securely mounted.
Keep the battery top clean and dry.
Keep the terminals and connections clean, tight, and
coated with petroleum jelly or terminal grease.
Immediately rinse any spilled electrolyte from the
battery with a solution of water and baking soda.
If the vehicle is not going to be used for an extended
period of time, disconnect the battery cables.Maintenance7-32Battery Recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free, calcium-based
battery.
If the battery becomes discharged in a short time
(headlights or interior lights were left on while the
vehicle was not in use), recharge it by slow (trickle)
charging 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.
