*1. : Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2. : If a lower engine oil (mineral oil including Semi-synthetic) is used, then the engine oil and engine oil filter must be replaced as indicated severe maintenance condition.
*3. : Except India, Middle East, Iran, Libia, Algeria, Sudan, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt
*4. : For India, Middle East, Iran, Libia, Algeria, Sudan, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt
*5. : To maintain your vehicle’s best brake and ABS/ESC performance, use Kia genuine brake fluid as in the specification.
Recommended SAE viscosity number
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick before checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that could be damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher viscosity engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of any viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be operated in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil viscosity from the chart.
