Improper or incomplete service may result in problems. This section gives instructions
only for the maintenance items that are easy to perform.
✽ NOTICE
Improper owner maintenance during the warranty period may affect warranty
coverage. For details, read the separate Warranty & Maintenance book provided with
the vehicle. If you're unsure about any servicing or maintenance procedure, we recommend
that the system be seviced by an authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING - Maintenance work
- Performing maintenance work on a vehicle can be dangerous. You can be
seriously injured while performing some maintenance procedures. If you lack
sufficient knowledge and experience or the proper tools and equipment to do
the work, we recommend that the system be servied by an authorized Kia dealer.
- Working under the hood with the engine running is dangerous. It becomes
even more dangerous when you wear jewelry or loose clothing. These can become
entangled in moving parts and result in injury. Therefore, if you must run the
engine while working under the hood, make certain that you remove all jewelry
(especially rings, bracelets, watches, and necklaces) and all neckties, scarves,
and similar loose clothing before getting near the engine or cooling fans.
CAUTION
- Do not put heavy objects or apply excessive force on top of the engine
cover or fuel related parts.
- When you inspect the fuel system (fuel lines and fuel injection devices),
we recommend that you contact an authorized Kia dealer.
- Do not drive long time with the engine cover removed.
- When checking the engine room, do not go near fire. Fuel, washer fluid,
etc. are flammable oils that may cause fire.
- Before touching the battery, ignition cables and electrical wiring, you
should disconnect the battery "-" terminal. You may get an electric shock from
the electric current.
- When you remove the interior trim cover with a flat bed (-) driver, be
careful not to damage the cover.
