• If a fire breaks out during refu-
eling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gas
station or contact the police
and local fire department.
Follow any safety instructions
they provide.(Continued)
• If the fuel filler cap requires
replacement, use only a gen-
uine Kia cap or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle. An
incorrect fuel filler cap can
result in a serious malfunction
of the fuel system or emission
control system. Correct
replacement caps are avail-
able at authorized Kia dealers.
• Do not spill fuel on the exteri-
or surfaces of the vehicle. Any
type of fuel spilled on painted
surfaces may damage the
paint.
• A loose fuel filler cap may
cause the “Check Engine”
(Malfunction Indicator) light in
the instrument panel to illumi-
nate unnecessarily.
• If the fuel filler lid will not open
in cold weather because the
area around it is frozen, push
or lightly tap the lid.
CAUTION
• Make sure to refuel with gaso-
line (unleaded fuel) only for
the gasoline engine vehicles.
• Check to make sure the fuel
filler cap is securely closed
after refueling.
