WARNING - Engine Oil
 Continuous contact with USED engine oil
has caused skin cancer in laboratory mice.
Protect your skin by washing with soap and
water.
 Keep all engine oil out of the reach of
children.
CAUTION
Both the oil and engine are hot. Do not burn
yourself.
✻ ✻
NOTICE
When installing the replacement oil filter, do not
allow the oil filter gasket to remain on the oil
filter mounting surface. This will cause oil
leakage and engine damage. Remove the old
gasket completely so that a new gasket will
properly seat and seal.
RIO ENG CNA 7-1.qxd 7/29/05 5:16 PM Page 15

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.

✻ ✻
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.
