EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
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 con-
ditions, more frequent oil and filterchanges are required. Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil
saturation and replace if necessary.
Drive belts should be checked peri-
odically for proper tension and
adjusted as necessary. Fuel filter cartridge (for diesel) 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 excessive amount of
foreign matter accumulates 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.
We recommend that the fuel filter be
replaced by an authorized Kia dealer.
Fuel filter (for gasoline)
Kia gasoline vehicle is equipped a
lifetime fuel filter that integrated with
the fuel tank. Regular maintenance
or replacement is not needed but
depends on fuel quality. If there are
some important safety matters like
fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of
power, hard starting problem etc, fuelfilter inspection or replace is needed.
We recommend that the fuel filter be
Inspected or replaced by an author-
ized Kia dealer.Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con- nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and dam-
age. We recommend that the fuel
lines, fuel hoses and connections be
replaced by an authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING
- Diesel only
Never work on the injection sys- tem with the engine running orwithin 30 seconds after shutting
off the engine. High pressure
pump, rail, injectors and highpressure pipes are subject to
high pressure even after the
engine stops. The fuel jet pro-
duced by fuel leaks may cause
serious injury, if it touches the
body. People using pacemakers
should not more move than 30
cm closer to the ECU or wiring
harness within the engine roomwhile the engine is running,since the high currents in the
Common Rail system produce
considerable magnetic fields.
CAUTION
When you are inspecting the belt, place the ignition switch inthe LOCK/OFF or ACC position.

Maintenance
Vapor hose and fuel filler cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those inter-
vals specified in the maintenance
schedule. Make sure that a new
vapor hose or fuel filler cap is cor-rectly replaced.Vacuum crankcase ventilation hoses (if equipped)
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi- dence of heat and/or mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber,
cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and
excessive swelling indicate deterio-
ration. Particular attention should be
paid to examine those hose surfaces
nearest to high heat sources, such
as the exhaust manifold.Inspect the hose routing to assurethat the hoses do not come in con-
tact with any heat source, sharp
edges or moving component whichmight cause heat damage or
mechanical wear. Inspect all hose
connections, such as clamps and
couplings, to make sure they are
secure, and that no leaks are pres-
ent. Hoses should be replaced
immediately if there is any evidence
of deterioration or damage.Air cleaner filter
We recommend that the air cleaner
filter be replaced by an authorized
Kia dealer. Spark plugs
(for gasoline engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
WARNING
Do not disconnect and inspect spark plugs when the engine is
hot. You may burn yourself.

FUEL FILTER (FOR DIESEL)
Draining water from the fuel filter
The fuel filter for diesel engine plays
an important role of separating water
from fuel and accumulating the waterin its bottom.
If water accumulates in the fuel filter,
the warning light comes on when the
ignition switch is in the ON position. Place a water trap under the fuel
filter.
Loosen the drain plug and drain water.
After water is drained, securely tighten the drain plug.
After starting the engine, check to make certain the fuel filter warning
light is off. Fuel filter cartridge replacement
✽✽
NOTICE
When replacing the fuel filter car-
tridge, we recommend that you use
parts for replacement from an
authorized Kia dealer.
CAUTION
If the water accumulated in the fuel filter is not drained at prop-er times, damages to the major parts such as the fuel systemcan be caused by water perme-ation in the fuel filter.OHM078008

TIRES AND WHEELS
Tire care
For proper maintenance, safety, and
maximum fuel economy, you must
always maintain recommended tire
inflation pressures and stay within
the load limits and weight distribution
recommended for your vehicle. Recommended cold tire infla- tion pressures All tire pressures (including the
spare) should be checked when the
tires are cold. “Cold Tires” means the
vehicle has not been driven for at
least three hours or driven less than1.6 km (one mile).
Recommended pressures must be
maintained for the best ride, top vehi-
cle handling, and minimum tire wear.
For recommended inflation pressure,
refer to “Tire and wheels” in chapter 9. All specifications (sizes and pres-
sures) can be found on a label
attached to the vehicle.
WARNING -
Tire under- inflation
Severe underinflation (70 kPa (10 psi) or more) can lead to
severe heat build-up, causing
blowouts, tread separation andother tire failures that can result
in the loss of vehicle control
leading to severe injury or
death. This risk is much higher
on hot days and when driving
for long periods at high speeds.
OHM088005N
CAUTION
Underinflation also results in excessive wear, poor handlingand reduced fuel economy. Wheel deformation also ispossible. Keep your tire pres-sures at the proper levels. If a tire frequently needs refilling,we recommend that the sys-tem be checked by an author- ized Kia dealer.
Overinflation produces a harsh ride, excessive wear atthe center of the tire tread, anda greater possibility of dam- age from road hazards.
