Odometer (km or mi.) The odometer indicates the total dis-
tance the vehicle has been driven.
You will also find the odometer useful to
determine when periodic maintenance
should be performed.Trip computer
The trip computer is a microcomputer-
controlled driver information system that
displays information related to driving
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position. All stored driving information
(except odometer, distance to empty and
instant fuel economy) resets if the batteryis disconnected.Press the

Engine coolant temperature gauge
This gauge shows the temperature of the
engine coolant when the ignition switchis ON.
Do not continue driving with an overheat-
ed engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to “If the engine overheats” in section 6. Manual transaxle shift indicator
This indicator informs you which gear is
desired whilst driving to save fuel.
For example
: Indicates that shifting up to the 3rdgear is desired (currently the shift
lever is in the 2nd or 1st gear).
: Indicates that shifting down to the 3rd gear is desired (currently the
shift lever is in the 4th or 5th gear).
OJD042236R/OJD042237R
CAUTION
If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the
“130°C” position, it indicates over-heating that may damage the engine.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. The enginecoolant is under pressure and
could cause severe burns. Wait
until the engine is cool before
adding coolant to the reservoir.

Information.
All stored driving information (except
odometer, distance to empty and instant
fuel economy) resets if the battery is dis-connected. 1. Distance to empty (km or mi.) This mode indicates the estimated dis-
tance the vehicle can be driven with the
remaining fuel. When the remaining dis-
tance is below 50 km (30 miles), “---” will
be displayed.
The meter’s working range is from 50 to 999 km (30 to 999 miles).

Features of your vehicle
Engine coolant tempera-ture warning light(if equipped)
The warning light illuminates if the tem-
perature of the engine coolant is above120±3°C (248±5.4°F).
Do not continue driving with an overheat-
ed engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to “Overheating” in section 6.
✽✽ NOTICE
If the engine coolant temperature warn- ing light illuminates, it indicates over-heating that may damage the engine.
Glow indicator (Diesel engine)
The indicator light illuminates when the
ignition switch is placed at the ON posi-
tion. The engine can be started after the
preheat indicator light goes off. The illu-
minating time varies with the water tem-
perature, air temperature and batterycondition.
✽✽ NOTICE
If the engine does not start within 10
seconds after the preheating is complet-
ed, turn the ignition key once more to
the LOCK/OFF position for 10 seconds,
and then to the ON position, in order to
preheat again.
Fuel filter warning light (Diesel engine)
This warning light illuminates for 3 sec-
onds after the ignition switch is set to the
ON position and then it will go out. If it
lights up whilst the engine is running, it
indicates that water has accumulated
inside the fuel filter. If this happens,
remove the water from the fuel filter.
For more details, refer to “Fuel filter” in section 7.
CAUTION
If the preheat indicator light contin-ues to illuminate or flash on and off after the engine has warmed up orwhilst driving, we recommend that
the system be checked by an autho- rised Kia dealer.
CAUTION
When the fuel filter warning lightilluminates, engine power (vehiclespeed & idle speed) may decrease. If you keep driving with the warning
light on, you can damage your vehi-cle's engine parts and injection sys- tem of the Common Rail. If thisoccurs, we recommend that the
system be checked by an autho-rised Kia dealer.

Check the condition of the tyres.
Check under the vehicle for any sign of leaks.
Be sure there are no obstacles behind you if you intend to back up. Necessary inspections
Fluid levels, such as engine oil, engine
coolant, brake fluid, and washer fluid
should be checked on a regular basis,
with the exact interval depending on the
fluid. Further details are provided in sec-
tion 7, “Maintenance”.
Before starting
Close and lock all doors.
Position the seat so that all controls are
easily reached.
Adjust the inside and outside rearview mirrors.
Be sure that all lights work.
