*1Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity.

*2If a lower grade engine oil is used, then the engine oil and engine oil filter must be replaced as indicated severe maintenance condition.

*3If the genuine oil that is developed for best performance is not used, it may cause the problems of transmission performance.

*4To maintain your vehicle’s best brake and ABS/ESC performance, use Kia genuine brake fluid as in the specification.
