Driving your vehicle
If you do decide to pull a trailer
Here are some important points if you decide to pull a trailer:
Consider using a sway control. You can ask a hitch dealer about sway control.
Do not do any towing with your car during its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow the engine to properly break in. Failure
to heed this caution may result in serious engine or transaxle damage.
When towing a trailer, we recommend that you consult an authorized Kia dealer on additional requirements such as a towing kit, etc.
Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (less than 100 km/h (60 mph)).
On a long uphill grade, do not exceed 70 km/h (45 mph) or the posted towing speed limit, whichever is lower.

Maintenance
OWNER MAINTENANCE
We recommend that the following lists
are vehicle checks and inspections that
should be performed by the owner or an
authorized Kia dealer at the frequencies
indicated to help ensure safe, depend-
able operation of your vehicle.
If you have any question, we recommend
that you consult an authorized Kia deal-
er.
These Owner Maintenance Checks are
generally not covered by warranties and
you may be charged for labor, parts and
lubricants used. Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in coolant reser-
voir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Look for low or under-inflated tires.
Check the radiator and condenser. Check if the front of the radiator and
condenser are clean and not blocked
with leaves, dirt or insects etc.
If any of the above parts are extremely
dirty or you are not sure of their condi-
tion, we recommend that you contact
an authorized Kia dealer.
While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of theexhaust or any smell of exhaust fumes
in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering wheel. Notice any increased steering
effort or looseness in the steering
wheel, or change in its straight-aheadposition.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or “pulls” to one side when trav-
eling on smooth, level road.
When stopping, listen and check for unusual sounds, pulling to one side,
increased brake pedal travel or “hard-
to-push” brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the oper- ation of your transaxle occurs, check
the transaxle fluid level.
Check manual transaxle operation, including clutch operation.
Check automatic transaxle/dual clutch transmission P (Park) function.
Check parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle (water dripping from the air conditioning
system during or after use is normal).
WARNING
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure. This could cause burns
or other serious injury.

NORMAL MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE - FOR EUROPE (EXCEPT RUSSIA)
The following maintenance services must be performed to ensure good emission control and performance. Keep receipts for all
vehicle emission services to protect your warranty. Where both mileage and time are shown, the frequency of service is deter-
mined by whichever occurs first. * 1
: Check the engine oil level and leak every 500 km (350
miles) or before starting a long trip.
* 2
: This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is
applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or
equivalent">. If the diesel fuel specifications don't meet the
EN590, it must be replaced according to the severe mainte-
nance schedule.
* 3
: If the recommended oil is not available, replace engine oil
and engine oil filter every 20,000 km or 12 months.
* 4
: If the recommended oil is not available, replace engine oil
and filter every 15,000 km for MPI engine and replace
engine oil and filter every 10,000 km for GDI engine.
* 5
: The engine oil level should be checked regularly and main-
tained properly. Operating with an insufficient amount of oil
can damage the engine, and such damage is not covered
by warranty.
* 6
: This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is
applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or
equivalent">. If the diesel fuel specifications don't meet the
EN590, it must be replaced more frequently. If there are
some important safety matters like fuel flow restriction,
surging, loss of power, hard starting problem etc., replacethe fuel filter immediately regardless of maintenance sched-
ule and we recommended that you consult an authorized
Kia dealer for details. *
7
: The fuel filter is considered to be maintenance free but peri-
odic inspection is recommended for this maintenance
schedule depends on fuel quality. If there are some impor-
tant matters like fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power,
hard starting problem etc, replace the fuel filter immediately
regardless of maintenance schedule and we recommended
that you consult an authorized Kia dealer for details.
* 8
: Manual transaxle and dual clutch transmission fluid should
be changed anytime they have been submerged in water.
* 9
: Inspect drive belt tensioner, idler and alternator pulley and if
necessary correct or replace.
* 10
: When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft
water 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.
* 11
: Inspect for excessive valve noise and/or engine vibration
and adjust if necessary. We recommended that the system
should be checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
* 12
: If good quality gasolines that meet Europe Fuel standards
(EN228) or equivalents including fuel additives is not avail-
able, one bottle of additive is recommended. Additives are
available from your authorized Kia dealer along with infor-
mation on how to use them. Do not mix other additives.
