Maintenance

(Continued)
• Wash the undercarriage of your

vehicle regularly during the win-
ter and whenever your vehicle has
been exposed to such salts or
chemicals.

• Do a thorough washing of the

undercarriage at the end of the
winter.

• Use professional service techni-

cians or governmental inspection
stations to annually inspect for
corrosion.

• Immediately seek an inspection of

your vehicle if you become visual-
ly aware of corrosion flaking or
scaling or if you become aware of
a change in vehicle performance,
such as soft or spongy brakes, flu-
ids leaking, impairment of direc-
tional control, suspension noises
or rattling metal straps.
NHTSA further advises that after
a vehicle is 7 years old, it is essen-
tial that you take these indicated
maintenance steps to ensure that
you protect yourself from unsafe
corrosion conditions.

Owner maintenance precau-
tions

Improper or incomplete service may
result in problems. This section gives
instructions only for the maintenance
items that are easy to perform.
As explained earlier in this section,
several procedures can be done only
by an authorized Kia dealer with spe-
cial tools.

✽

NOTICE

Maintenance

OWNER MAINTENANCE

The following lists are vehicle checks
and inspections that should be per-
formed by the owner or an author-
ized Kia dealer at the frequencies
indicated to help ensure safe,
dependable operation of your vehi-
cle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your deal-
er as soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance Checks
are generally not covered by war-
ranties and you may be charged for
labor, parts and lubricants used.

Owner maintenance schedule

When you stop for fuel:

• Check the engine oil level.
• Check the coolant level in coolant

reservoir.

• Check the windshield washer fluid

level.

• Look for low or under-inflated tires.

While operating your vehicle:

• Note any changes in the sound of

the exhaust or any smell of
exhaust fumes in the vehicle.

• Check for vibrations in the steering

wheel. Notice any increased steer-
ing effort or looseness in the steer-
ing wheel, or change in its straight-
ahead position.

• Notice if your vehicle constantly

turns slightly or “pulls” to one side
when traveling on smooth, level
road.

• When stopping, listen and check

for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or “hard-to-push” brake pedal.

• If any slipping or changes in the

operation of your transaxle occurs,
check the transaxle fluid level.

• Check the automatic transaxle P

(Park) function.

• Check the parking brake.
• Check for fluid leaks under your

vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).

WARNING

- Hot coolant

Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot
coolant and steam may blow
out under pressure.

Maintenance

At least monthly:

• Check the coolant level in the

engine coolant reservoir.

• Check the operation of all exterior

lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flash-
ers.

• Check the inflation pressures of all

tires including the spare.

At least twice a year
(i.e., every Spring and Fall) :

• Check the radiator, heater and air

conditioning hoses for leaks or
damage.

• Check the windshield washer

spray and wiper operation. Clean
the wiper blades with clean cloth
dampened with washer fluid.

• Check the headlight alignment.
• Check the muffler, exhaust pipes,

shields and clamps.

• Check the lap/shoulder belts for

wear and function.

• Check for worn tires and loose

wheel lug nuts.

At least once a year :

• Clean the body and door drain

holes.

• Lubricate the door hinges and

check the hood hinges.

• Lubricate the door and hood locks

and latches.

• Lubricate the door rubber weather-

strips.

• Check the air conditioning system.
• Inspect and lubricate automatic

transaxle linkage and controls.

• Clean the battery and terminals.
• Check the brake fluid level.

EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS

Engine oil and filter

The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in
the maintenance schedule. If the
vehicle is being driven in severe con-
ditions, more frequent oil and filter
changes are required.

Drive belts

Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil
saturation and replace if necessary.
Drive belts should be checked peri-
odically for proper tension and
adjusted as necessary.

Fuel filter (for gasoline)

Kia gasoline vehicle is equipped a
lifetime fuel filter that integrated with
the fuel tank. Regular maintenance
or replacement is not needed but
depends on fuel quality. If there are
some important safety matters like
fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of
power, hard starting problem etc, fuel
filter inspection or replace is needed.
The fuel filter be Inspected or
replaced by an authorized Kia dealer.

Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections

Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and dam-
age. Have an authorized Kia dealer
replace any damaged or leaking
parts immediately.

Vapor hose and fuel filler cap

The vapor hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those inter-
vals specified in the maintenance
schedule. Make sure that a new
vapor hose or fuel filler cap is cor-
rectly replaced.

Vacuum crankcase ventilation
hoses

Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-
dence of heat and/or mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber,
cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and
excessive swelling indicate deterio-
ration. Particular attention should be
paid to examine those hose surfaces
nearest to high heat sources, such
as the exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure
that the hoses do not come in con-
tact with any heat source, sharp
edges or moving component which
might cause heat damage or
mechanical wear. Inspect all hose
connections, such as clamps and
couplings, to make sure they are
secure, and that no leaks are pres-
ent. Hoses should be replaced
immediately if there is any evidence
of deterioration or damage.
