2020 KIA NIRO MPG

Introduction
21
Your new vehicle is designed to use
only unleaded fuel having a pump
octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87
(Research Octane Number 91) or
higher. (Do not use methanol blend-
ed fuels.)
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini-
mize exhaust emissions and spark
plug fouling.
Never add any fuel system cleaning
agents to the fuel tank other than
what has been specified. (Consult an
authorized Kia dealer for details.)
• Tighten the cap until it clicks onetime, otherwise the Check Engine light will illuminate.
Gasoline containing alcohol and
methanol
Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and
ethanol (also known as grain alco-
hol), and gasoline or gasohol con-
taining methanol (also known as
wood alcohol) are being marketed
along with or instead of leaded or
unleaded gasoline. Pursuant to EPA regulations, ethanol
may be used in your vehicle.
Do not use gasohol containing more
than 15% ethanol, and do not use
gasoline or gasohol containing any
methanol. Ethanol provides less
energy than gasoline and it attracts
water, and it is thus likely to reduce
your fuel efficiency and could lower
your MPG results.
Methanol may cause drivability prob-
lems and damage to the fuel system,
engine control system and emission
control system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any
kind if drivability problems occur.
Vehicle damage or drivability prob-
lems may not be covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty if they result
from the use of:
1. Gasoline or gasohol containing
methanol.
2. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
3. Gasohol containing more than 15% ethanol.
WARNING - Refueling
• Do not “top off” after the noz- zle automatically shuts off.
Attempts to force more fuel
into the tank can cause fuel
overflow onto you and the
ground, causing a risk of fire.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage, especially
in the event of an accident.

Features of your vehicle
Range (Plug-in hybrid)
The range is the estimated dis-tance the vehicle can be driven
with the remaining high-voltage
(hybrid) battery (1, Electric) and
fuel in the fuel tank (2, Gasoline). If the estimated distance is below
1 mi. (1 km), the trip computer will
display “---” as distance to empty.
- Distance range: 1 ~ 510 mi. or 1 ~510 km
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• If the vehicle is not on level ground
or the battery power has been
interrupted, the range function
may not operate correctly.
• The range may differ from the actual driving distance as it is an
estimate of the available driving
distance.
• The trip computer may not register additional fuel if less than 1.6 gal-
lons (6 liters) of fuel are added to
the vehicle.
• The range may vary significantly based on driving conditions, driv-
ing habits, and condition of the
vehicle.
Fuel Economy
Average Fuel Economy (1)
The average fuel economy is calcu-
lated by the total driving distance
and fuel consumption since the last
average fuel economy reset.
- Fuel economy range : 0.0 ~ 99.9,100 ~ 999 MPG, L/100km or
km/L
The average fuel economy can be reset both manually and automati-
cally.

Manual reset
To clear the average fuel economy
manually, press the OK button
(reset) on the steering wheel for
more than 1 second when the aver-
age fuel economy is displayed. Automatic reset
To make the average fuel economy
be reset automatically whenever
refueling, select the “Fuel Economy
Reset” mode in User Setting menu of
the LCD display (Refer to “LCD dis-
play”).
OFF - You may set to default man-
ually by using the trip switch reset
button.
After ignition - The vehicle will automatically set to default once 4

turned to the OFF position.
After refueling - After refueling more than 1.6 gallons (6 liters) and
driving over 1 mph (1 km/h), the
vehicle will reset to default auto-
matically.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The average vehicle speed is not dis-
played, when the vehicle drives
shorter than 0.2 miles(300 meters)
or less than 10 seconds after turning
ON the ignition switch or ENGINE
START/STOP button.
Instant Fuel Economy (2)
This mode displays the instant fuel
economy while driving.
- Fuel economy range : 0.0 ~ 75MPG or 0.0 ~ 30 L/100km, km/L
