Only use brake/clutch fluid in brake/clutch system. Small amounts of improper fluids (such as engine oil) can cause damage to the brake/clutch sys- tem.


OYD076024L Check the fluid level in the reservoir periodically. The fluid level should be between MAX and MIN marks on the side of the reservoir. Before removing the reservoir cap and adding brake/clutch* fluid, clean the area around the reservoir cap thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch* fluid contamination.


* if equipped


If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX level. The level will fall with accumulated mileage. This is a nor- mal condition associated with the wear of the brake linings and/or clutch disc (if equipped). If the fluid level is excessively low, have the brake/clutch* system checked by an authorized Kia dealer.


Use only the specified brake/clutch* fluid.(Refer to “Recommended lubri- cants and capacities”in chapter 8.)


Never mix different types of fluid.


and


changing


In the event the brake/clutch* system requires frequent additions of fluid, the vehicle should be inspected by an authorized Kia dealer. When adding brake/clutch* fluid, handle it carefully. Do not let it come in contact with your eyes. If brake/clutch* fluid should come in contact with your eyes, immediately flush them with a large quantity of fresh tap water. Have your eyes examined by a doc- tor as soon as possible.


CAUTION - Brake/clutch


fluid


Do not allow brake/clutch* fluid to contact the vehicle's body paint, as paint damage will result.


Brake/clutch* fluid, which has been exposed to open air for an extended time should never be used as its quality cannot be guaranteed. It should be disposed of properly.

WIPER BLADES Blade inspection


1JBA5122


Commercial hot waxes applied by automatic car washes have been known to make the windshield diffi- cult to clean.


Maintenance


Blade replacement When the wipers no longer clean adequately, the blades may be worn or cracked, and require replacement. To prevent damage to the wiper arms or other components, do not attempt to move the wipers manually. The use of a non-specified wiper blade could result in wiper malfunc- tion and failure.


Contamination of either the wind- shield or the wiper blades with for- eign matter can reduce the effective- ness of the windshield wipers. Common sources of contamination are insects, tree sap, and hot wax treatments used by some commer- cial car washes. If the blades are not wiping properly, clean both the win- dow and the blades with a good cleaner or mild detergent, and rinse thoroughly with clean water.


CAUTION - Wiper blades


To prevent damage to the wiper blades, do not use gasoline, kerosene,paint thinner,or other solvents on or near them.

TIRES AND WHEELS Tire care For proper maintenance, safety, and maximum fuel economy, you must always maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle.


Recommended cold tire infla- tion pressures All tire pressures (including the spare) should be checked when the tires are cold. “Cold Tires” means the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or driven less than one mile (1.6 km). Recommended pressures must be maintained for the best ride, top vehi- cle handling, and minimum tire wear. For recommended inflation pressure refer to “Tire and wheels” in section 8.


Maintenance


WARNING - Tire underin-


flation


Inflate your tires consistent with the instructions provided in this manual. Severe underinflation (10 psi (70 kPa) or more) can lead to severe heat build-up, causing blowouts, tread separa- tion and other tire failures that can result in the loss of vehicle control.This risk is much higher on hot days and when driving for long periods at high speeds.


OMD060012N All specifications (sizes and pres- sures) can be found on a label attached to the driver’s side center pillar.

results


(cid:129) Underinflation also


in excessive wear, poor handling and reduced fuel economy. Wheel deformation also is possible. Keep your tire pressures at the proper levels. If a tire frequently needs refilling, have it checked by an authorized Kia dealer.


(cid:129) Overinflation produces a harsh ride, excessive wear at the center of the tire tread, and a greater pos- sibility of damage from road haz- ards.


(cid:129) Warm tires normally exceed rec- ommended cold tire pressures by 4
to 6 psi (28 to 41 kPa). Do not release air from warm tires to adjust the pressure or the tires will be underinflated.


(cid:129) Be sure to reinstall the tire inflation valve caps. Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could get into the valve core and cause air leakage. If a valve cap is missing, install a new one as soon as possible.


48


Always observe the following: (cid:129) Check tire pressure when the tires are cold. (After vehicle has been parked for at least three hours or hasn't been driven more than one mile (1.6 km) since startup.)


(cid:129) Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pres- sure of other tires.


(cid:129) Never overload your vehicle. Be careful not to overload a vehicle luggage rack if your vehicle is equipped with one.


WARNING - Tire Inflation Overinflation or underinflation can reduce tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling, and lead to sudden tire failure. This could result in loss of vehicle control and potential injury.


Checking tire inflation pres- sure Check your tires once a month or more. Also, check the tire pressure of the spare tire.


How to check Use a good quality gauge to check tire pressure. You can not tell if your tires are properly inflated simply by looking at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they're underinflated. Check the tire's inflation pressure when the tires are cold. - "Cold" means your vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more than 1 mile (1.6 km).


YDM USA 7.QXP 5/1/2016 1:24 PM Page 49


Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gauge firm- ly onto the valve to get a pressure measurement. If the cold tire inflation pressure matches the recommended pressure on the tire and loading information label, no further adjust- ment is necessary. If the pressure is low, add air until you reach the rec- ommended amount. If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve. Recheck the tire pressure with the tire gauge. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and mois- ture.


(cid:129) Inspect your tires frequently for proper inflation as well as wear and damage. Always use a tire pres- sure gauge.


(cid:129) Tires with too much or too little pressure wear unevenly causing poor handling, loss of vehicle con- trol, and sudden tire failure leading to accidents, injuries, and even death. The recommended cold tire pressure for your vehicle can be found in this manual and on the tire label located on the driver's side center pillar.


(cid:129) Remember to check the pressure of your spare tire. Kia recommends that you check the spare every time you check the pressure of the other tires on your vehicle.


Maintenance


Tire rotation To equalize tread wear, it is recom- mended that the tires be rotated every 7,500 miles (12,000 km) or sooner if irregular wear develops. During rotation, check the tires for correct balance. When rotating tires, check for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tire pres- sure, improper wheel alignment, out- of-balance wheels, severe braking or severe cornering. Look for bumps or bulges in the tread or side of tire. Replace the tire if you find either of these conditions. Replace the tire if fabric or cord is visible. After rotation, be sure to bring the front and rear tire pressures to specification and check lug nut tightness. Refer to “Tire and wheels” in chapter 8.

WARNING - Mixing tire


types


Do not mix bias ply and radial ply tires under any circum- stances. This may cause unusu- al handling characteristics.


Wheel alignment and tire bal- ance The wheels on your vehicle were aligned and balanced carefully at the factory to give you the longest tire life and best overall performance. In most cases, you will not need to have your wheels aligned again. However, if you notice unusual tire wear or your vehicle pulling one way or the other, the alignment may need to be reset. If you notice your vehicle vibrating when driving on a smooth road, your wheels may need to be rebalanced.


CAUTION - Wheel weight


Improper wheel weights can damage your vehicle's alu- minum wheels. Use only approved wheel weights.

Tread wear indicator


OEN076053


If the tire is worn evenly, a tread wear indicator will appear as a solid band across the tread. This shows there is less than 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) of tread left on the tire. Replace the tire when this happens. Do not wait for the band to appear across the entire tread before replac- ing the tire.


Maintenance


The ABS works by comparing the speed of the wheels. Tire size can affect wheel speed. When replacing tires, all 4 tires must use the same size originally supplied with the vehi- cle. Using tires of a different size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESC (Electronic Stability Control) (if equipped) to work irregularly.


✽✽ NOTICE We recommend replacing tires with the same make and model originally supplied with the vehicle; not doing so may affect driving performance.


Compact spare tire replacement A compact spare tire has a shorter tread life than a regular size tire. Replace it when you can see the tread wear indicator bars on the tire. The replacement compact spare tire should be the same size and design tire as the one provided with your new vehicle and should be mounted on the same compact spare tire wheel. The compact spare tire is not designed to be mounted on a regular size wheel, and the compact spare tire wheel is not designed for mount- ing a regular size tire.

CAUTION - Wheel


Wheels that do not meet Kia's specifications may fit poorly and result in damage to the vehicle or unusual handling and poor vehicle control.

Tire traction Tire traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be replaced when tread wear indicators appear. Slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road, to reduce the possibility of losing con- trol of the vehicle.


Tire maintenance In addition to proper inflation, correct wheel alignment helps to decrease tire wear. If you find a tire is worn unevenly, have your dealer check the wheel alignment. When you have new tires installed, make sure they are balanced. This will increase vehicle ride comfort and tire life. Additionally, a tire should always be rebalanced if it is removed from the wheel.

7.Uniform tire quality grading Quality grades can be found where applicable on tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maxi- mum section width. For example: TREADWEAR 440 TRACTION A TEMPERATURE A


Tread wear The tread wear grade is a compara- tive rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified govern- ment test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one-and-a- half times (1½) as well on the gov- ernment course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.


Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. Regardless of the remaining tread, we recom- mend that tires be replaced after approximately six (6) years of nor- mal service. Heat caused by hot cli- mates or frequent high loading con- ditions can accelerate the aging process. These grades are molded on the side-walls of passenger vehicle tires. The tires available as standard or optional equipment on your vehicles may vary with respect to grade.


Maintenance


Traction - AA, A, B & C The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent the tires ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on spec- ified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction perform- ance. The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead brak- ing traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction char- acteristics.


7 55


YDM USA 7.QXP 5/1/2016 1:24 PM Page 56


Maintenance


Temperature -A, B & C The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C representing the tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled condi- tions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C cor- responds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the labora- tory test wheel than the minimum required by law.

UTQGS: Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standards, a tire information system that provides consumers with ratings for a tire's traction, tempera- ture and treadwear. Ratings are determined by tire manufacturers using government testing proce- dures. The ratings are molded into the sidewall of the tire.


58


Vehicle Capacity Weight: The num- ber of designated seating positions multiplied by 150 lbs. (68 kg) plus the rated cargo and luggage load. Vehicle Maximum Load on the Tire: Load on an individual tire due to curb and accessory weight plus maximum occupant and cargo weight. Vehicle Normal Load on the Tire: Load on an individual tire that is determined by distributing to each axle its share of the curb weight, accessory weight, and normal occu- pant weight and driving by 2. Vehicle Placard: A label permanent- ly attached to a vehicle showing the original equipment tire size and rec- ommended inflation pressure.


All season tires Kia specifies all season tires on some models to provide good per- formance for use all year round, including snowy and icy road condi- tions. All season tires are identified by ALL SEASON and/or M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire sidewall. Snow tires have better snow traction than all season tires and may be more appropriate in some areas.


Summer tires Kia specifies summer tires on some models to provide superior perform- ance on dry roads. Summer tire per- formance is substantially reduced in snow and ice. Summer tires do not have the tire traction rating M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire side wall. If you plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or icy conditions, Kia recom- mends the use of snow tires or all season tires on all four wheels.


YDM USA 7.QXP 5/1/2016 1:24 PM Page 59


Snow tires If you equip your car with snow tires, they should be the same size and have the same load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires should be installed on all four wheels; other- wise, poor handling may result. Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28
kPa) more air pressure than the pressure recommended for the stan- dard tires on the tire label on the dri- ver's side of the center pillar, or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall, whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120
km/h) when your vehicle is equipped with snow tires.


Tire chains Tire chains, if necessary, should be installed on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are installed in accordance with the manufactur- er's instructions. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not continue to use tire chains when they are no longer needed. (cid:129) When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h).


(cid:129) Use the SAE “S” class or wire


chains.


(cid:129) If you hear noise caused by chains contacting the body, retighten the chain to avoid contact with the vehicle body.


(cid:129) To prevent body damage, retighten the chains after driving 0.3~0.6
miles (0.5~1.0 km).


(cid:129) Do not use tire chains on vehicles equipped with aluminum wheels. In unavoidable circumstances, use a wire type chain.


(cid:129) Use wire chains less than 0.59
inches (15 mm) to prevent damage to the chain’s connection.


Maintenance


Radial-ply tires Radial-ply tires provide improved tread life, road hazard resistance and smoother high speed ride. The radi- al-ply tires used on this vehicle are of belted construction and are select- ed to complement the ride and han- dling characteristics of your vehicle. Radial-ply tires have the same load carrying capacity as bias-ply or bias belted tires of the same size and use the same recommended inflation pressure. Mixing of radial-ply tires with bias-ply or bias belted tires is not recommended. Any combina- tions of radial-ply and bias-ply or bias belted tires when used on the same vehicle will seriously deteriorate vehicle handling. The best rule to fol- low is: identical radial-ply tires should always be used as a set of four.


7 59


YDM USA 7.QXP 5/1/2016 1:24 PM Page 60


Maintenance


Longer wearing tires can be more susceptible to irregular tread wear. It is very important to follow the tire rotation interval shown in this section to achieve the tread life potential of these tires. Cuts and punctures in radial-ply tires are repairable only in the tread area, because of sidewall flexing. Consult your tire dealer for radial-ply tire repairs.


Low aspect ratio tire (if equipped) Low aspect ratio tires, whose aspect ratio is lower than 50, are provided for sporty looks. Because the low aspect ratio tires are optimized for handling and brak- ing, it may be more uncomfortable to ride in and there is more noise com- pare with normal tires.


60


✽✽ NOTICE • It is not easy to recognize the tire damage with your own eyes. But if there is the slightest hint of tire damage, even though you cannot see the tire damage with your own eyes have the tire checked or replaced because the tire damage may cause air leakage from the tire.


• If the tire is damaged by driving on a rough road, off road, pothole, manhole, or curb stone, it will not be covered by the warranty.


• You can find out the tire informa-


tion on the tire sidewall.


CAUTION


Because the sidewall of the low aspect ratio tire is shorter than the normal,the wheel and tire of the low aspect ratio tire is easi- er to be damaged.So,follow the instructions below. - When driving on a rough road or off road, drive cautiously because tires and wheels may be damaged.And after driving, inspect tires and wheels.


- When passing over a pothole, speed bump,manhole,or curb stone,drive slowly so that the tires and wheels are not dam- aged.


- If the tire is impacted,we rec- ommend that you inspect the tire condition or contact an authorized Kia dealer.


- To prevent damage to the tire, inspect the tire condition and pressure every 3,000km.

A vehicle's electrical system is protect- ed from electrical overload damage by fuses. This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one located in the driver's side panel bol- ster, others in the engine compart- ment near the battery. If any of your vehicle's lights, acces- sories, or controls do not work, check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has blown, the element inside the fuse will be melted. If the electrical system does not work, first check the driver's side fuse panel. Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same rating. Before replacing a blown fuse, move to safe place, turn off the engine and all electric devices, and disconnect the negative battery cable. If the replacement fuse blows, this indicates an electrical problem. Avoid using the system involved and we rec- ommend that you consult an author- ized Kia dealer. Four kinds of fuses are used: blade type for lower amperage rating, car- tridge type, battery fuse terminal and multi fuse type for higher amperage ratings.


Maintenance


WARNING - Fuse replace-


ment


(cid:129) Never replace a fuse with any- thing but another fuse of the same rating.


(cid:129) A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire.


(cid:129) Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse - even as a temporary repair. It may cause extensive wiring damage and a possible fire.
