*1. Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2. If the above recommended specification oil is not available, SAE 0W-20 grade synthetic oil can be used. (Except Middle east, Iran, Libia, Algeria, Sudan, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Central & South America)
*3. If the genuine oil that is developed for best performance is not used, it may cause the problems of transmission performance.
*4. To maintain your vehicle`s best brake and ABS/ESC performance, use Kia genuine brake fluid or those of an equivalent standard 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.
Never add any additives to the engine oil. Engine oil additives can change the properties of engine oil and may cause serious engine failure.
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.

- If the above recommended specification oil is not available, SAE 0W-20 grade synthetic oil can be used. If mineral oil or semi-synthetic oil is used, it is a severe maintenance condition in terms of engine oil change.
*2. For Middle east, Iran, Libia, Algeria, Sudan, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt
- If the above recommended specification oil is not available, SAE 5W-30 grade synthetic oil can be used. If mineral oil or semi-synthetic oil is used, it is a severe maintenance condition in terms of engine oil change.
