Trip Computer / Tripmeter* Fuel Economy
The Trip Computer is a driver information system
that displays information related to driving – such
as Odometer, Tripmeter, Range, Average Fuel
Consumption and Driving Time – on the display
when the ignition switch is in the ON position
To cycle through the LCD instrument cluster

There are several factors that
contribute to your vehicle’s
fuel efficiency, including
maintenance of your vehicle,
driving style, environmental
conditions, vehicle weight
and vehicle aerodynamics
Below are tips on how to help
improve fuel economy:
• Keep your vehicle in good
condition with regular
maintenance
• Don’t let the engine idle
longer than necessary
• Drive at a moderate speed,
accelerating smoothly and
at a moderate rate
• Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
• Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight in
your vehicles
• Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
• Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
REMINDER: Driving range will vary depending on your vehicle’s fuel tank size, e g 12-gal vs 24-gal , even though the MPG may be the same

Do not mix other additives.2 Fuel filter & fuel tank air filter are considered to be maintenance free, but periodic inspection is recommended for this maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. If there are some important safety matters like fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power, hard starting problem, etc, replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of maintenance schedule and consult an authorized Kia dealer for details.3
The drive belt should be replaced when cracks occur or tension is reduced excessively. Inspect “ Water Pump” when replacing the drive belt or timing belt.4 Inspect for excessive tappet noise and/or engine vibration and adjust if necessary.5 When replacing coolant, use only a qualified coolant additive for your vehicle and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at the factory. An improper coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine damage. Check tire pressure at least once a month or more.
