WARNING - Fuel Filling
Fuel may be under pressure.
Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap is
venting fuel or if a hissing sound
is heard, wait until the condition
stops before completely
removing the cap. If these
precautions are not followed,
fuel may spray out and cause
serious personal injury.
WARNING
Automotive fuels are flammable/
explosive materials. When
refueling, please note the
following guidelines carefully.
Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in severe
personal injury, severe burns or
death by fire or explosion.
 Before refueling always note
the location of the Emergency
Gasoline Shut-Off, if available,
at the gas station facility.
 Before touching the fuel
nozzle or fuel filler cap, you
should eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity
discharge by touching
another metal part of the front
of the vehicle, a safe distance
away from the fuel filler neck,
nozzle, or other gas source.
 Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun
refueling. Do not touch, rub
or slide against any item or
fabric (polyester, satin, nylon,
etc.) capable of producing
static electricity. Static
electricity discharge can
ignite fuel vapors resulting in
explosion. If you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
once again eliminate
potentially dangerous static
electricity discharge by
touching a metal part of the
vehicle, away from the fuel
filler neck, nozzle or other
gasoline source.
 When using a portable fuel
container be sure to place the
container on the ground prior
to refueling. Static electricity
discharge from the container
can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling
has begun, contact with the
vehicle should be maintained
until the filling is complete.
Use only portable fuel
containers designed to carry
and store gasoline.
 Do not use cellular phones
around a gas station or while
refueling any vehicle. Electric
current and/or electronic
interference from cellular
phones can potentially ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire. If
you must use your cellular
phone, use it in a place away
from the gas station.
 When refueling always shut
the engine off. Sparks
produced by electrical
components related to the
engine can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.

• To remove the cap, turn it coun
terclockwise.
• To install the cap, turn it clock wise
until it “clicks”.
This indicates that the cap is securely
tightened.The fuel filler neck is designed to
prevent filling the fuel tank with
anything but unleaded fuel.
Always insure that the
engine is OFF before and
during refueling. Once
refueling is complete, check
to make sure the fuel filler
cap and door are securely
closed, before starting the
engine.
 Do not light any fire around a
gas station. DO NOT use
matches or a lighter and DO
NOT SMOKE or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle while
at a gas station especially
during refueling. Automotive
fuel is highly flammable and
can, when ignited, result in
explosion by flames.
 If a fire breaks out during
refueling, leave the vicinity of
the vehicle, and immediately
contact the manager of the
gas station or contact the
police and local fire
department. Follow any
safety instructions they
provide.
✻
NOTICE
A loose fuel filler cap may cause the
OBD-II Malfunction Indicator
Light ( ) light in the instrument
panel to illuminate unnecessarily.
Always ensure that the fuel filler
cap is tight.
CHECK
✻
NOTICE
If the fuel filler cap requires
replacement, use only a genuine
Kia cap. An incorrect fuel filler cap
can result in a serious malfunction
of the fuel system or emission
control system. Correct
replacement caps are available at
Authorized Kia Dealers.
