•Working under the hood with theengine running is dangerous. It be‐comes even more dangerous whenyou wear jewelry or loose clothing.These can become entangled inmoving parts and result in injury.Therefore, if you must run the en‐gine while working under the hood,make certain that you remove alljewelry (especially rings, bracelets,watches, and necklaces) and allneckties, scarves, and similar looseclothing before getting near theengine or cooling fans.
CAUTION
•Do not put heavy objects or applyexcessive force on top of the en‐gine cover (if equipped) or fuel re‐lated parts.
•When you inspect the fuel system(fuel lines and fuel injection devi‐ces), we recommend that you con‐tact an authorized kia dealer.

•Do not drive long time with the en‐gine cover (if equipped) removed.
•When checking the engine room,do not go near fire.Fuel, washer fluid, etc. are flam‐mable oils that may cause fire.
•Before touching the battery, igni‐tion cables and electrical wiring,you should disconnect the battery"-" terminal. You may get an elec‐tric shock from the electric cur‐rent.
•When you remove the interior trimcover with a flat bed (-) driver, becareful not to damage the cover.
•Be careful when you replace andclean bulbs to avoid burns or elec‐trical shock.

Cooling system
Check the cooling system components,
such as the radiator, coolant reservoir,
hoses and connections for leakage and damage. Replace any damaged parts.
Coolant (Engine/Inverter)
The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.
Automatic transaxle fluid
Automatic transaxle fluid should not be
checked under normal usage conditions.
We recommend that the automatic transmission fluid changed by an au‐
thorized Kia dealer according to the
maintenance schedule.
NOTICE
Automatic transaxle fluid color is ba‐
sically red.
As the vehicle is driven, the auto‐
matic transaxle fluid will begin to
look darker. It is normal condition
and you should not judge the need
to replace the fluid based upon the
changed color.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified fluidcould result in transaxle malfunctionand failure.Use only specified automatic trans‐axle fluid (Refer to L
Page 579 of 686

COOLANT
The high-pressure cooling system has
a reservoir filled with year round anti‐
freeze coolant. The reservoir is filled at the factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at the
beginning of the winter season, and be‐ fore traveling to a colder climate.
CAUTION
•When the engine overheats fromlow engine coolant, suddenly add‐ing engine coolant may causecracks in the engine. To preventdamage, add engine coolant slowlyin small quantities.
•Do not drive with no engine cool‐ant. It may cause water pump fail‐ure and engine seizure, etc.
Checking the coolant level
WARNING
nRemoving radiator cap
•Never attempt to remove the radi‐ator cap while the engine is oper‐ating or hot. Doing so might leadto cooling system and engine dam‐age. Also, hot coolant or steamcould cause serious personal in‐jury.
•Turn the engine off and wait untilit cools down. Use extreme carewhen removing the radiator cap.Wrap a thick towel around it, andturn it counterclockwise slowly tothe first stop. Step back while thepressure is released from the cool‐ing system.When you are sure all the pressurehas been released, press down onthe cap, using a thick towel, andcontinue turning counterclockwiseto remove it.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Even if the engine is not operating,do not remove the radiator cap orthe drain plug while the engine andradiator are hot. Hot coolant andsteam may still blow out underpressure, causing serious injury.
The engine coolant and/or inverter
coolant level is influenced by the hybrid system temperature. Before checking
or refilling the engine coolant and/or in‐
verter coolant, turn the hybrid vehicle off.
WARNING
The electric motor (cool‐ing fan) is controlled byengine coolant tempera‐ture, refrigerant pressureand vehicle speed. It maysometimes operate evenwhen the engine is notrunning.

(Continued)
Use extreme caution when workingnear the blades of the cooling fan sothat you are not injured by a rotat‐ing fan blades. As the engine coolanttemperature decreases, the electricmotor will automatically shut off.This is a normal condition.If your vehicle is equipped with GDI,the electric motor (cooling fan) mayoperate until you disconnect thenegative battery cable.
Engine coolant
0 + '
Check the condition and connections of
all cooling system hoses and heater ho‐ ses. Replace any swollen or deteriora‐
ted hoses.
The coolant level should be filled be‐
tween F (Full) and L (Low) marks on the side of the coolant reservoir when the
engine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
specified coolant to provide protection against freezing and corrosion. Bring
the level to F (Full), but do not overfill.
If frequent additions are required, we
recommend that the system be inspec‐
ted by an authorized Kia dealer.
Inverter coolant
Check the condition and connections of
all cooling system hoses. Replace any swollen or deteriorated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled be‐
tween MAX and MIN marks on the side
of the coolant reservoir when the en‐ gine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
specified coolant to provide protection
against freezing and corrosion. Bring the level to MAX, but do not overfill. If
frequent additions are required, we rec‐
ommend that the system be inspected
by an authorized Kia dealer.
