Maintenance
Operating precautions for catalyt-ic converters (if equipped)Your vehicle is equipped with a cat-
alytic converter emission control
device.
Therefore, the following precautions
must be observed:
Make sure to refuel your vehicle according to the "Fuel require- ments" suggested in chapter 1.
Do not operate the vehicle when there are signs of engine malfunc-
tion, such as misfire or a noticeable
loss of performance.
Do not misuse or abuse the engine. Examples of misuse arecoasting with the ignition off and
descending steep grades in gear
with the ignition off.
Do not operate the engine at high idle speed for extended periods (5
minutes or more).
Do not modify or tamper with any park of the engine or emission con-
trol system. All inspections and
adjustments must be made by a
professional workshop. Kia recom-
mends to visit an authorised Kia
dealer/service center. Avoid driving with an extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuel
cause the engine to misfire, dam-
aging the catalytic converter.
Failure to observe these precautionscould result in damage to the catalyt-
ic converter and to your vehicle.
Additionally, such actions could void
your warranties.
WARNING - Fire
A hot exhaust system can ignite flammable items under
your vehicle. Do not park,
idle, or drive the vehicle over
or near flammable objects,
such as dry grass, paper,
leaves, etc.
The exhaust system and cat- alytic system are very hotwhilst the engine is running or
immediately after the engine
is turned off. Keep away from
the exhaust system and cat-
alytic. You may get burned.
Also, do not remove the heat
sink around the exhaust sys-
tem, do not seal the bottom of
the vehicle or do not coat the
vehicle for corrosion control.
It may present a fire risk under
certain conditions.

Diesel Particulate Filter
(if equipped)
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
system removes the soot in the
exhaust gas.
Unlike a disposable air filter, the DPF
system automatically burns (oxidizes)
and removes the accumulated soot
according to the driving condition. In
other words, the active burning byengine control system and high
exhaust gas temperature caused by
normal/high driving condition burns
and removes the accumulated soot.
However, if the vehicle continues to
be driven at repeated short distance
or driven at low speed for a long
time, the accumulated soot may not
be automatically removed because
of low exhaust gas temperature.
More than a certain amount of sootdeposited, the malfunction indicator
light ( ) illuminates. When the malfunction indicator light
blinks, it may stop blinking by driving
the vehicle at more than 60 km/h (37mph) or at more than second gear
with 1500 ~ 2500 engine rpm for a
certain time (for about 25 minutes). If the malfunction indicator light ( )
continues to be blinked or the warn-
ing massage “Check exhaust system”
illuminates in spite of the procedure,
visit a professional workshop and
check the DPF system. Kia recom-
mends to visit an authorised Kia deal-
er/service partner.
If you continue to drive with the mal-
function indicator light blinking for a
long time, the DPF system can bedamaged and fuel consumption can
be worsen.
Lean NOx Trap (if equipped)
The Lean NOx Trap (LNT) system
removes the nitrogen oxide in the
exhaust gas. The smell can occur in
the exhaust gas depending on the
quality of the fuel and it can degrade
NOx reduction performance, please
use the regulated automotive dieselfuel.
CAUTION
- Diesel Fuel
(if equipped with DPF)
It is recommended to use the regulated automotive diesel fuelfor diesel vehicle equipped with the DPF system.
If you use diesel fuel includinghigh sulfur (more than 50 ppmsulfur) and unspecified addi-tives, it can cause the DPF sys- tem to be damaged and whitesmoke can be emitted.

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 viscosi-
ty engine oils can provide better fuel
economy and cold weather perform-
ance, however, higher viscosity
engine oils are required for satisfac-
tory lubrication in hot weather. Using
oils of any viscosity other than thoserecommended could result in engine
damage. *
1
: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE
5W-20 (Except Middle East & Europe, GDI Engine) or 5W-30 (For Middle East, GDI Engine).
However, if the engine oil is not available in your country, select the proper engine oil using
the engine oil viscosity chart.
* 2
: Middle East includes Libya, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Sudan, Egypt and Iran.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area
around any filler plug, drainplug, or dipstick before check- ing or draining any lubricant.This is especially important industy or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on unpavedroads. Cleaning the plug anddipstick areas will prevent dirtand grit from entering the engine and other mechanismsthat could be damaged.
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.
