Kia Carnival (2009+). Instruction — part 181

REMOVAL OF PARTS

First find the cause of the problem and then determine whether removal or disassembly before starting the job.

DISASSEMBLY

If the disassembly procedure is complex, requiring many parts to be disassembled, all parts should be disassembled
in a way that will not aggect their performance or external appearance.

1. Inspection of parts

Each part, when removed, should be carefulley on spected for malfunction, deformation, damage, and other
problems.

2. Arrangement of parts

All disassembled parts should be carefully arranged for effective reassembly.
Be sure to separate and correctly identify the parts to be repllaced from those that will be used again.

3. Cleaning parts for reuse

All parts to be used again should be carefully and thoroughly cleaned by an appropriate method.

PARTS

When replacing parts, use KIA MOTORS genuine parts.

REPLACEMENT

Standard values, such as torques and certain adjustments, must be strictly observed in the reassembly of all parts.
If removed, the following parts should always be replaced with new ones.

1. Oil seals
2. Gaskets
3. O-rings
4. Lock washers
5. Cotter pins (split pins)
6. Plastic nuts

Depending on their location.

7. Selalant should be applied to gaskets.
8. Oil should be applied to the moving components of parts.
9. Specified oil or grease should be applied to the prescribed locations (oil seals, etc) before assembly.

ADJUSTMENT

Use gauges and testers to adjust correclty the parts to standard values correctly.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

1. Be sure to disconnect the battery cable from the negative (-) terminal of the battery.

2. Never pull on the wires when disconnecting connectors.

3. Locking connectors will click when the connector is secure.

4. Handle sensors and relays carefully. Be careful not to drop them against other parts.

RUBER PARTS AND TUBES

Always prevent gasoline or from touching rubber parts or tubing.

MEASURING BODY DIMENSIONGS

1. Basically, all measurements in this manual are taken with a tracking gauge.

2. When a measuring tape is used, check to be sure there is no elongation, twisting or bending.

3. For measuring dimensions, both projected dimensioners and actual - measurement dimensions are used in this

manual.

DIMENSIONS PROJECTED

1. These are the dimensions measured when the measurement points are projected from the vehicle's surface, and

are the reference dimensions used for used for body alterations.

2. If the length of the tracking gauge probes is adjustable, measure it by lengthening one of two probes as long as the

different value in height of the two surface.

MEASURING ACTUAL DIMENSIONS

1. These dimensions indicate the actual linear distance between mesaurement points, and are used as the reference

dimensions when a tracking gauge is used for measurement.

2. First adjust both probes to the same length (A=A') before measurement.

Check the probes and gauge itself to make sure there is no free play.
