Fuel additives (Gasoline)

Kia recommends that you use unleaded gasoline which has an octane rating

of RON (Research Octane Number) 95 / AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher

(for Europe) or Octane Rating of RON (Research Octane Number) 91 / AKI

(Anti-Knock Index) 87 or higher (except Europe).

For customers who do not use good quality gasolines including fuel additives

regularly, and have problems starting or the engine does not run smoothly,

one bottle of additives added to the fuel tank at every 15,000 km (for Eu‐

rope, Australia and New Zealand)/10,000 km (except Europe, Australia and

New Zealand, China) / 5,000 km (for China). Additives are available from a

professional workshop along with information on how to use them. Kia rec‐

ommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner. Do not mix other

additives.
