WASHER FLUID
Checking the washer fluid level
The reservoir is translucent so that
you can check the level with a quickvisual inspection.
Check the fluid level in the washer
fluid reservoir and add fluid if neces-
sary. Plain water may be used if
washer fluid is not available.
However, use washer solvent with
antifreeze characteristics in cold cli-
mates to prevent freezing. Checking the parking brake
Check whether the stroke is within
specification when the parking brake
pedal is depressed with 20 kg (44 lb,
196N) of force. Also, the parking
brake alone should securely hold the
vehicle on a fairly steep grade. If the
stroke is more or less than specified,
we recommend that the system be
serviced by an authorized Kia dealer.
Stroke : 3~4 notch
WARNING -
Coolant
Do not use radiator coolant or antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir.
Radiator coolant can severely obscure visibility when
sprayed on the windshield
and may cause loss of vehicle
control or damage to paint
and body trim.
Windshield Washer fluid agents contain some amountsof alcohol and can be flamma-
ble under certain circum-
stances. Do not allow sparksor flame to contact the washerfluid or the washer fluid reser-
voir. Damage to the vehicle or
occupants could occur.
Windshield washer fluid is poisonous to humans and ani-
mals. Do not drink and avoidcontacting windshield washer
fluid. Serious injury or death
could occur.

LIGHT BULBS
Please prepare bulbs with appropri- ate standards in case of emergen-
cies. (Refer to chapter 9 for further
information)
When changing bulbs and sorts, first
turn off the engine at a safe place,
firmly apply the side brake and take
out the battery's negative (-) terminal.
Use only the bulbs of the specified wattage.
WARNING - Working on the lights
Prior to working on the light,
firmly apply the parking brake,
ensure that the ignition switchis turned to the LOCK position
and turn off the lights to avoid
sudden movement of the vehi-
cle and burning your fingers or
receiving an electric shock.
WARNING
Be sure to replace the burned-
out bulb with one of the same
wattage rating. Otherwise, it
may cause extensive wiring
damage and possible fire.
CAUTION
If you don’t have necessary tools, the correct bulbs and theexpertise, consult an authorized Kia dealer. In many cases, it isdifficult to replace vehicle lightbulbs because other parts of the vehicle must be removed beforeyou can get to the bulb. This isespecially true if you have toremove the headlight assembly to get to the bulb(s). Removing/installing the headlight assem-bly can result in damage to the vehicle.
CAUTION
If unauthentic parts or sub- standard lights are used whenchanging lights, it may lead to fuse disconnection and mal-function, and other wiringdamages.
Do not install extra lamps or LED to the vehicle. If supple-mentary lights are installed, itmay lead to lamp malfunctionand flickering of the lights. In addition, the fuse box andother writing may be damaged.
