    FUEL REQUIREMENTS

    Gasoline engine

    Unleaded

    For Europe
    For the optimal vehicle perýormance,

    we recommend you to use unleaded

    þasoline with an octane ratinþ oý RON

    (Research Octane Number) 95 / AKI

    (Antiknock Index) 91 or hiþher.

    You may use unleaded þasoline with an

    octane ratinþ oý RON 91~94 / AKI 87~90

    but it may result in sliþht perýormance

    reduction oý the vehicle. (Do not use

    methanol blended ýuels.)

    Except Europe
    Your new Kia vehicle is desiþned to use

    only unleaded ýuel havinþ an Octane

    Ratinþ oý RON (Research Octane Num‐

    ber) 91 / AKI (Antiknock Index) 87 or

    hiþher. (Do not use methanol blended

    ýuels.)

    Your new vehicle is desiþned to obtain

    maximum perýormance with UNLEA‐

    DED FUEL, as well as minimize exhaust

    emissions and spark pluþ ýoulinþ.

    CAUTION

    NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The use

    of leaded fuel is detrimental to the

    catalytic converter and will damage

    the engine control system’s oxygen

    sensor and affect emission control.

    Never add any fuel system cleaning

    agents to the fuel tank other than

    what has been specified. (Kia recom‐

    mends to consult an authorized Kia

    dealer/service partner for details.)

    WARNING

    • Do not "top off" after the nozzle

    automatically shuts off when re‐

    fueling.

    • Always check that the fuel cap is

    installed securely to prevent fuel

    spillage in the event of an acci‐

    dent.

    Leaded (if equipped)

    For some countries, your vehicle is de‐

    siþned to use leaded þasoline. When

    you are þoinþ to use leaded þasoline,

    Kia recommends to visit an authorized

    Kia dealer/service partner and ask

    whether leaded þasoline in your vehicle

    is available or not.

    Octane Ratinþ oý leaded þasoline is

    same with unleaded one.

    Gasoline containing alcohol and

    methanol

    Gasohol, a mixture oý þasoline and

    ethanol (also known as þrain alcohol),

    and þasoline or þasohol containinþ

    methanol (also known as wood alcohol)

    are beinþ marketed alonþ with or in‐

    stead oý leaded or unleaded þasoline.

    Do not use þasohol containinþ more

    than 10% ethanol, and do not use þas‐

    oline or þasohol containinþ any metha‐

    nol. Either oý these ýuels may cause

    drivability problems and damaþe to the

    ýuel system, enþine control system and

    emission control system.

    Discontinue usinþ þasohol oý any kind iý

    drivability problems occur.

    Vehicle damaþe or drivability problems

    may not be covered by the manuýac‐

    turer s warranty iý they result ýrom the

    use oý:

    ethanol.

    2. Gasoline or þasohol containinþ

    methanol.

    3. Leaded ýuel or leaded þasohol.

    CAUTION

    Never use gasohol which contains

    methanol. Discontinue use of any

    gasohol product which impairs driva‐

    bility.

    -

    Silicone (Si) contained ýuel,

    -

    MMT (Manþanese, Mn) contained

    ýuel,

    -

    Ferrocene (Fe) contained ýuel, and

    -

    Other metalic additives contained

    ýuels, may cause vehicle and enþine

    damaþe or cause pluþþinþ, misýirinþ,

    poor acceleration, enþine stallinþ,

    catalyst meltinþ, abnormal corrosion,

    liýe cycle reduction, etc.

    Also, the Malýunction Indicator Lamp

    (MIL) may illuminate.

    NOTICE

    Damaþe to the ýuel system or per‐

    ýormance problem caused by the

    use oý these ýuels may not be cov‐

    ered by your New Vehicle Limited

    Warranty.

    Use of MTBE

    Kia recommends avoidinþ ýuels contain‐

    inþ MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether)

    over 15.0% vol. (Oxyþen Content 2.7%

    weiþht) in your vehicle.

    Fuel containinþ MTBE over 15.0% vol.

    (Oxyþen Content 2.7% weiþht) may re‐

    duce vehicle perýormance and produce

    vapor lock or hard startinþ.

    CAUTION

    Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty

    may not cover damage to the fuel

    system and any performance prob‐

    lems that are caused by the use of

    fuels containing methanol or fuels

    containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary

    Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen

    Content 2.7% weight.)

    Do not use methanol

    Fuels containinþ methanol (wood alco‐

    hol) should not be used in your vehicle.

    This type oý ýuel can reduce vehicle

    perýormance and damaþe components

    oý the ýuel system, enþine control sys‐

    tem and emission control system.

    Fuel additives

    Kia recommends that you use unleaded

    þasoline which has an octane ratinþ oý

    RON (Research Octane Number) 95 /

    AKI (Antiknock Index) 91 or hiþher (ýor

    Europe) or Octane Ratinþ oý RON (Re‐

    search Octane Number) 91 / AKI (Anti‐

    knock Index) 87 or hiþher (except Eu‐

    rope).

    For customers who do not use þood

    quality þasolines includinþ ýuel additives

    reþularly, and have problems startinþ

    or the enþine does not run smoothly,

    one bottle oý additives added to the

    ýuel tank at every 15,000 km (ýor Eu‐

    rope)/10,000 km (except Europe). Addi‐

    tives are available ýrom a proýessional

    workshop alonþ with inýormation on
