Finish damage repair
Deep scratches or stone chips in the
painted surface must be repaired
promptly. Exposed metal will quickly
rust and may develop into a major
repair expense.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If your vehicle is damaged and
requires any metal repair or
replacement, be sure the body shop
applies anti-corrosion materials to
the parts repaired or replaced.
Bright-metal maintenance
To remove road tar and insects,
use a tar remover, not a scraper or
other sharp object.
To protect the surfaces of bright- metal parts from corrosion, apply a
coating of wax or chrome preser-
vative and rub to a high luster.
During winter weather or in coastal areas, cover the bright metal parts
with a heavier coating of wax or
preservative. If necessary, coat the
parts with non-corrosive petroleum
jelly or other protective compound.CAUTION
Wiping dust or dirt off the body with a dry cloth willscratch the finish.
Do not use steel wool, abra- sive cleaners, or strong deter-gents containing highly alka-line or caustic agents onchrome-plated or anodizedaluminum parts. This mayresult in damage to the pro-tective coating and cause dis-coloration or paint deteriora-tion.
WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test
the brakes while driving slowly
to see if they have been affected
by water. If braking performance
is impaired, dry the brakes by
applying them lightly while
maintaining a slow forward
speed.

RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only lubricants of the proper quality.
The correct lubricants also help promote engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.
LubricantVolume Classification
Engine oil
*1 *2
(drain and refill) 2.0L GDI4.0
l(4.2 US qt.) ILSAC GF-4, API SM or above,
ACEA A5 or above
Automatic transaxle fluid 2.0L GDI7.1 l(7.5 US qt.)
- ATF SP-IV (Recommended SK ATF SP-IV,
MICHANG ATF SP-IV, NOCA ATF SP-IV, Kia genuine ATF SP-IV)
Coolant A/T6.0l(6.3US qt.)Mixture of antifreeze and distilled water
(Ethylene glycol base coolant for aluminum radiator)
Brake/clutch fluid 0.7~0.8
l
(0.7~0.8 US qt.) FMVSS116 DOT-3 or DOT-4
Fuel58
l (15.3 US gal.)Refer to “Fuel requirements” in chapter 1
*1Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers the next page.
*2Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel econo -
my by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure in
everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
