What to do in an emergency
IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
If your temperature gauge indicates over-
heating, you will experience a loss of
power, or hear loud pinging or knocking,
the engine is probably too hot. If this hap-
pens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as itis safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P (automatic transaxle) or neutral (manual
transaxle) and set the parking brake. If
the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If engine coolant is running out under the vehicle or steam is coming out from
underneath the hood, stop the engine.
Do not open the hood until the coolant
has stopped running or the steaming
has stopped. If there is no visible loss
of engine coolant and no steam, leave
the engine running and check to be
sure the engine cooling fan is operat-
ing. If the fan is not running, turn the
engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing,
check to see that it is tight. If the drive
belt seems to be satisfactory, check for
coolant leaking from the radiator,
hoses or under the vehicle. (If the air
conditioning had been in use, it is nor-
mal for cold water to be draining from it
when you stop). 5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or engine coolant leaks, stop the
engine immediately and call the near-
est authorized Kia dealer for assis-
tance. 6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine tem-
perature has returned to normal. Then,
if coolant has been lost, carefully add
coolant to the reservoir to bring the
fluid level in the reservoir up to the
halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for further signs of overheating. If over-
heating happens again, call an author-
ized Kia dealer for assistance.
Serious loss of coolant indicates there is
a leak in the cooling system and this
should be checked as soon as possible
by an authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING - Under the
hood
While the engine is running, keep
hair, hands and clothing away from
moving parts such as the fan and
drive belts.
WARNING - Radiator cap
Do not remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. This can
allow coolant to be blown out of the
opening and cause serious burns.

If An Accident Occurs
Avoid the engine compartment.
Avoid any orange or high voltagewires, cables, or components.
Assume that a high voltage component is exposed and move away from the
vehicle as promptly as possible.
Refer to Chapter 6 for towing informa- tion or call Kia Roadside Assistance.
When the hybrid vehicle shuts off
When the high voltage battery or 12-volt
battery discharges, or fuel tank is empty,
the hybrid system may not operate.
If the Hybrid system stops operating
while the vehicle is moving, reduce the
vehicle speed gradually. Pull your vehi-
cle off the road in a safe area, and shift
the transmission in to Park (P) position
and;
1. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
2. Set the start button at OFF, and try tostart the Hybrid system by applying the
brake pedal and pushing the start but-
ton.
3. If the Hybrid system will not operate, refer to "EMERGENCY STARTING" in
chapter 6. Before you try to jump start the vehicle,
confirm the fuel level. If the fuel level is
low add more fuel before attempting as
emergancy start.
