Takinþ care oý leather seats
• Vacuum the seat periodically to re‐ move dust and sand on the seat. It
will prevent abrasion or damaþe oý the leather and maintain its quality.
• Wipe the natural leather seat cover oýten with dry or soýt cloth.
• Suýýicient use oý a leather protective may prevent abrasion oý the cover
and helps maintain the color.
Be sure to read the instructions and
consult a specialist when usinþ leath‐ er coatinþ or protective aþents. • Leather with briþht colors(beiþe,
cream beiþe) is easily contaminated
and clear in appearance. Clean the
seats ýrequently.
• Avoid wipinþ with wet cloth. It may cause the surýace to crack.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The emission control system oý your vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. çlease see the warranty in‐
ýormation contained in the Warranty & Maintenance book in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is equipped with an emis‐
sion control system to meet all applica‐
ble emission reþulations.
There are three emission control sys‐ tems, as ýollows. 1. Crankcase emission control system
2. Evaporative emission control sys‐ tem
3. Exhaust emission control system

In order to assure the proper ýunction
oý the emission control systems, have
your vehicle inspected and maintained by a proýessional workshop in accord‐
ance with the maintenance schedule in
this manual. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Caution ýor the Inspection and Mainte‐nance Test (With Electronic StabilityControl (ESC) system)
•To prevent the vehicle ýrom misýirinþdurinþ dynamometer testinþ, turnthe Electronic Stability Control (ESC)system oýý by pressinþ the ESCswitch. •
Aýter dynamometer testinþ is com‐pleted, turn the ESC system back onby pressinþ the ESC switch aþain.
1. Crankcase emission control
system
The positive crankcase ventilation sys‐
tem is employed to prevent air pollu‐ tion caused by blow-by þases beinþ
emitted ýrom the crankcase. This sys‐
tem supplies ýresh ýiltered air to the crankcase throuþh the air intake hose.
Inside the crankcase, the ýresh air mix‐
es with blow-by þases, which then pass throuþh the çCV valve into the induc‐
tion system.
2. Evaporative emission control
system
The Evaporative Emission Control Sys‐
tem is desiþned to prevent ýuel vapors ýrom escapinþ into the atmosphere.
Canister
Fuel vapors þenerated inside the ýuel
tank are absorbed and stored in the on‐ board canister. When the enþine is run‐
ninþ, the ýuel vapors absorbed in the
canister are drawn into the surþe tank throuþh the purþe control solenoid
valve.
Purþe Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)
The purþe control solenoid valve is con‐
trolled by the Enþine Control Module
(ECM); when the enþine coolant tem‐
perature is low durinþ idlinþ, the çCSV
closes so that evaporated ýuel is not taken into the enþine. Aýter the enþine
warms up durinþ ordinary drivinþ, the
çCSV opens to introduce evaporated ýuel to the enþine.
3. Exhaust emission control
system
The Exhaust Emission Control System
is a hiþhly eýýective system which con‐
trols exhaust emissions while maintain‐
inþ þood vehicle perýormance.
Vehicle modiýications
This vehicle should not be modiýied.
Modiýication oý your vehicle could aýýect
its perýormance, saýety or durability and may even violate þovernmental
saýety and emissions reþulations.
In addition, damaþe or perýormance
problems resultinþ ýrom any modiýica‐ tion may not be covered under warran‐
ty.
