Checking the iMT system actuator fluid level
In normal driving conditions, the actuator fluid level does not go down rapidly.
However, oil consumption rate may rise as vehicle mileage increases, and leakage in actuator related parts may result in increased consumption of the iMT system actuator oil. Regularly check and make sure the iMT system actuator oil fluid level is between MIN and MAX marks.
If the oil level is below MIN mark, have the vehicle checked by a professional workshop. Kia recommends to visit an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
If the fluid level is excessively low, have the system checked by a professional workshop. Kia recommends to visit an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
Use only the specified iMT system actuator fluid. (Refer to More Details.) Never mix different types of fluid.
Loss of iMT system actuator fluid
In the event the iMT system actuator requires frequent additions of fluid, have the system inspected by a professional workshop.

iMT system actuator fluid
When changing and adding iMT system actuator fluid, handle it carefully.
Do not let it come in contact with your eyes.
If iMT system actuator 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 doctor as soon as possible.
Do not allow iMT system actuator fluid to contact the vehicle's body paint, as paint damage will result.
The iMT system actuator 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 properly disposed.
Don't put in the wrong kind of fluid. A few drops of mineral based oil, such as engine oil, in your iMT system actuator can damage iMT system actuator parts.
