  • Extensive engine idling or low speed driving for long distances.

  • Driving on rough, dusty, muddy, unpaved, gravelled or salt-spread roads.

  • Driving in areas using salt or other corrosive materials or in very cold weather.

ITEM

REMARK

*1

Engine oil and engine oil filter

  • As it is normal for engine oil to be consumed during driving, the engine oil level should be checked on regular basis.

  • The engine oil change interval for normal operating conditions is based on the use of the recommended engine specification. If the recommended engine oil specification is not used, then replace the engine oil according to the maintenance schedule under severe operating conditions.

*2

Engine oil and engine oil filter (For Diesel Engine)

  • The engine oil level should be checked regularly and maintained properly. Operating with an insufficient amount oil can damage the engine, and such damage is not covered by warranty.

  • This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or equivalent">. If the diesel fuel specifications don't meet the EN590, it must be replaced according to the severe maintenance schedule.

*3

Coolant (Engine)

When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water for your vehicle and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at the factory. An improper coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine damage.

*4

Drive belts (Engine)

  • Adjust alternator, water pump and air conditioner drive belt. Inspect and if necessary repair or replace.

  • Inspect drive belt tensioner, idler and alternator pulley and if necessary correct or replace.

*5

Fuel filter cartridge (For Diesel Engine)

This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or equivalent">. If the diesel fuel specifications don't meet the EN590, it must be replaced more frequently. If there are some important safety matters like fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power, hard starting problem etc., replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of maintenance schedule and consult a professional workshop for more details. Kia recommends to consult an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
