reservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Look for low or under-inflated tires.

engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot coolant
and steam may blow out under

or other serious injury.
OWNER MAINTENANCE
WARNING - Diesel Engine
Never work on the injection system with the engine running or within30 seconds after shutting off the
engine. High-pressure pump, rail,
injectors and high-pressure pipes
are subject to high pressure even
after the engine stopped. The fuel
jet produced by fuel leaks may
cause serious injury, if it touches
the body. People using pacemakers
should not move more than 30cm
closer to the ECU or wiring harness
within the engine room while the
engine is running, since the high
currents in the electronic engine
control system produce consider-
able magnetic fields.

EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
G050100AHM Engine oil and filter The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in the
maintenance schedule. If the vehicle is
being driven in severe conditions, morefrequent oil and filter changes arerequired.
G050200BUN Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil satu-
ration and replace if necessary. Drive
belts should be checked periodically forproper tension and adjusted as neces-
sary. G050300AUN
Fuel filter (cartridge) A clogged filter can limit the speed at
which the vehicle may be driven, damage
the emission system and cause multiple
issues such as hard starting. If an exces-
sive amount of foreign matter accumu-
lates in the fuel tank, the filter may
require replacement more frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine
for several minutes, and check for leaks
at the connections. Fuel filters should be
installed by an authorized Kia dealer.
G050400AHM
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con- nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections for leakage and damage. Have
an authorized Kia dealer replace any
damaged or leaking parts immediately.
WARNING -
Diesel only
Never work on the injection system with the engine running or within30 seconds after shutting off the
engine. High pressure pump, rail,
injectors and high pressure pipes
are subject to high pressure even
after the engine stopps. The fuel jet
produced by fuel leaks may cause
serious injury, if it touches the
body. People using pacemakers
should not more move than 30cm
closer to the ECU or wiring harness
within the engine room while the
engine is running, since the highcurrents in the Common Rail sys-
tem produce considerable magnet-ic fields.
CAUTION
When you are inspecting the belt, place the ignition switch in theLOCK/OFF or ACC position.
