Introduction
A020101AHM-EU
Your new vehicle is designed to use
only unleaded fuel having a pump
octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87
(Research Octane Number 91) or
higher.
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini-
mize exhaust emissions and spark
plug fouling.
A020103AUN-EU
Gasoline containing alcohol andmethanol
Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and
ethanol (also known as grain alcohol),
and gasoline or gasohol containing
methanol (also known as wood alco-
hol) are being marketed along with or
instead of leaded or unleaded gaso-
line.
Pursuant to EPA regulations, ethanol
may be used in your vehicle. Do not
use gasohol containing more than
10% ethanol, and do not use gasoline
or gasohol containing any methanol.
Ethanol provides less energy than
gasoline and it attracts water, and it is
thus likely to reduce your fuel efficien-
cy and could lower your MPG results.
Methanol may cause drivability prob-
lems and damage to the fuel system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any kind
if drivability problems occur. Vehicle
damage or drivability problems may
not be covered by the manufacturer's
warranty if they result from the use of:
1. Gasoline or gasohol containing methanol.
2. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION
Never add any fuel system cleaning agents to the fuel tankother than what has been speci-fied. (Consult an authorized Kiadealer for details.)
WARNING
• Do not "top off" after the noz- zle automatically shuts off
when refueling.
Tighten the cap until it clicks once. otherwise the Check
Engine light will illumi-
nate.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.

Features of your vehicle
Tripmeter
TRIP A : Tripmeter A
TRIP B : Tripmeter B
This mode indicates the distance of
individual trips selected since the
last tripmeter reset.
The meter's working range is from
0.0 to 999.9 km (0.0 to 999.9 miles).
Pressing the RESET button, when
the tripmeter (TRIP A or TRIP B) is
being displayed, clears the tripmeter
to zero (0.0).Distance to empty (km or mi.)
This mode indicates the estimated
distance to empty based on the cur-
rent fuel in the fuel tank and the
amount of fuel delivered to the
engine. When the remaining distance
is below 50 km (30 miles), “---” will be
displayed and the distance to empty
indicator (RANGE) will blink until the
vehicle is refueled.
The meter’s working range is from 50
to 990 km (30 to 990 miles).Average fuel consumption
(l/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the average
fuel consumption from the total fuel
used and the distance since the last
average consumption reset. The total
fuel used is calculated from the fuel
consumption input. For an accurate
calculation, drive more than 50 m
(0.03 miles).
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the average
fuel consumption is being displayed,
clears the average fuel consumption
to zero (--.-).

If the vehicle speed exceeds 1 km/h
(1.6 MPH) after refueled more than 6
l (1.6 gallons), the average fuel con-
sumption will be cleared to zero (--.-).
Instant fuel consumption (if equipped)
(l/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the instant fuel
consumption during the last few sec-
onds.✽ ✽NOTICE
• If the vehicle is not on level ground
or the battery power has been
interrupted, the “Distance to
empty” function may not operate
correctly.
The trip computer may not regis-
ter additional fuel if less than 6
liters (1.6 gallons) of fuel are
added to the vehicle.
• The fuel consumption and dis- tance to empty values may vary
significantly based on driving con-
ditions, driving habits, and condi-
tion of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty value is an estimate of the available driving
distance. This value may differ
from the actual driving distance
available.
