Automatic transmission (AT) fluid

Automatic transmission fluid should not be checked under normal usage conditions. Have the automatic transmission fluid changed by an authorized Kia dealer.

TIP

Automatic transmission fluid color is basically red.

As the vehicle is driven, the automatic transmission fluid will begin to look darker. It is normal condition and does not mean that you should replace the fluid based only on the color change.

NOTE

The use of a non-specified fluid could result in transmission malfunction and failure.

Use only specified automatic transmission fluid. (Refer to Recommended lubricants and capacities.)
