BRAKE/CLUTCH FLUID
Checking the brake/clutch fluid
level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir peri-
odically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir. Before removing the reservoir cap and
adding brake/clutch fluid, clean the area
around the reservoir cap thoroughly to
prevent brake/clutch fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
level. The level will fall with accumulated
mileage. This is a normal condition asso-
ciated with the wear of the brake linings.
If the fluid level is excessively low, we
recommend that the system be checked
by an authorized Kia dealer.
Use only the specified brake/clutch fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants andcapacities” in chapter 8.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING - Brake/clutch fluid
When changing and adding
brake/clutch fluid, handle it careful-
ly. Do not let it come in contact with
your eyes. If brake/clutch fluid
should come in contact with your
eyes, immediately flush them with a
large quantity of fresh tap water.
Have your eyes examined by a doc-
tor as soon as possible.
WARNING - Loss of
brake/clutch fluid
In the event the brake/clutch sys-
tem requires frequent additions of
fluid, we recommend that the sys-
tem be inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer.
CAUTION
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid to contact the vehicle's body paint, as
paint damage will result.
Brake/clutch fluid, which has beenexposed to open air for an extended time should never be used as itsquality cannot be guaranteed. It
should be disposed of properly.Don't put in the wrong kind of fluid. A few drops of mineral-based oil,such as engine oil, in your
brake/clutch system can damage brake/clutch system parts.

Fabric seat cover (If equipped)
Please clean the fabric seats regularly
with a vacuum cleaner in consideration of
fabric material characteristics. If they are
heavily soiled with beverage stains, etc.,
use a suitable interior cleaner. To prevent
damage to seat covers, wipe off the seat
covers down to the seams with a large
wiping motion and moderate pressureusing a soft sponge or microfiber cloth.
Velcro closures on clothing or sharp
objects may cause snagging or scratch-
es on the surface of the seats.
Make sure not to rub such objects
against the surface.
Cleaning the upholstery and interior
trim
Vinyl
Remove dust and loose dirt from vinyl
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.
Clean vinyl surfaces with a vinyl cleaner.
Fabric
Remove dust and loose dirt from fabric
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.Clean with a mild soap solution recom-
mended for upholstery or carpets.
Remove fresh spots immediately with a
fabric spot cleaner. If fresh spots do not
receive immediate attention, the fabriccan be stained and its color can be
affected. Also, its fire-resistant properties
can be reduced if the material is not
properly maintained.
Cleaning the lap/shoulder belt web-bing
Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for cleaning
upholstery or carpet. Follow the instruc-
tions provided with the soap. Do not
bleach or re-dye the webbing because
this may weaken it.
Cleaning the interior window glass
If the interior glass surfaces of the vehi-
cle become fogged (that is, covered with
an oily, greasy or waxy film), they should
be cleaned with glass cleaner. Follow the
directions on the glass cleaner container.
CAUTION
Using anything but recommended cleaners and procedures may affectthe fabric’s appearance and fire-
resistant properties.
CAUTION
Do not scrape or scratch the insideof the rear window. This may result in damage to the rear windowdefroster grid.

Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel economy 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.

Recommended SAE viscosity
number
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an
effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil
flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can
provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance, however, higher vis-
cosity engine oils are required for satisfac-
tory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of
any viscosity other than those recom-
mended could result in engine damage.When choosing an oil, consider the
range of temperature your vehicle will be
operated in before the next oil change.Proceed to select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area
around any filler plug, drain plug, or
dipstick before checking or drain- ing any lubricant. This is especiallyimportant in dusty or sandy areas
and when the vehicle is used onunpaved roads. Cleaning the plugand dipstick areas will prevent dirtand grit from entering the engine
and other mechanisms that couldbe damaged.
* 1
: If you use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE 5W-20, replace engine oil and filter after
driving 15,000 km or 12 month with MPI engine (10,000 km or 6 month with GDI engine) in
normal condition and replace engine oil and engine oil filter after driving 7,500 km or 6 month
with MPI engine (5,000 km or 6 month with GDI engine) in severe condition.
* 2
: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE
5W-20,5W-30 (API SM / ILSAC GF 4 or above). However, if the engine oil is not available in
your country, select the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.
* 3
: In Middle East, do not use the engine oil of viscosity grade SAE 5W-20.
* 4
: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE
5W-30 (ACEA A5 or above).
