Introduction

Your new vehicle is designed to use

only unleaded fuel having a pump

octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87

(Research Octane Number 91) or

higher. (Do not use methanol blend-

ed fuels.)

Your new vehicle is designed to

obtain maximum performance with

UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini-

mize exhaust emissions and spark

plug fouling.

Never add any fuel system cleaning

agents to the fuel tank other than

what has been specified. (Consult an

authorized Kia dealer for details.)

• Tighten the cap until it clicks one

time, otherwise the Check Engine

light will illuminate.

Gasoline containing alcohol and

methanol

Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and

ethanol (also known as grain alco-

hol), and gasoline or gasohol con-

taining methanol (also known as

wood alcohol) are being marketed

along with or instead of leaded or

unleaded gasoline.

Do not use gasohol containing more

than 15% ethanol, and do not use

gasoline or gasohol containing any

methanol. Either of these fuels may

cause drivability problems and dam-

age to the fuel system, engine con-

trol system and emission control sys-

tem.

Discontinue using gasohol of any

kind if drivability problems occur.

Vehicle damage or drivability prob-

lems may not be covered by the

manufacturer’s warranty if they result

from the use of:

1. Gasoline or gasohol containing

methanol.

2. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.

3. Gasohol containing more than 15

percent ethanol

FUEL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING - Refueling

• Do not "top off" after the noz-

zle automatically shuts off.

Attempts to force more fuel

into the tank can cause fuel

overflow onto you and the

ground, causing a risk of fire.

• Always check that the fuel cap

is installed securely to pre-

vent fuel spillage, especially

in the event of an accident.

Introduction

"E85" fuel is an alternative fuel com-

prised of 85 percent ethanol and 15

percent gasoline, and is manufac-

tured exclusively for use in Flexible

Fuel Vehicles. “E85” is not compati-

ble with your vehicle. Use of “E85”

may result in poor engine perform-

ance and damage to your vehicle's

engine and fuel system. Kia recom-

mends that customers do not use

fuel with an ethanol content exceed-

ing 15 percent.

✽✽NOTICE

Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty

does not cover damage to the fuel sys-

tem or any performance problems

caused by the use of “E85” fuel.

✽✽NOTICE

Never use any fuel containing

methanol. Discontinue use of any

methanol containing product which

may inhibit proper drivability.

Other fuels

Using fuels that contain Silicone (Si),

MMT (Manganese, Mn), Ferrocene

(Fe), and Other metalic additives,

may cause vehicle and engine dam-

age or cause misfiring, poor acceler-

ation, engine stalling, catalyst melt-

ing, clogging, abnormal corrosion,

life cycle reduction, etc.

Also, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp

(MIL) may illuminate.

✽✽NOTICE

Damage to the fuel system or per-

formance problem caused by the use

of these fuels may not be covered by

your New Vehicle Limited

Warranty.

Use of MTBE

Kia recommends avoiding fuels con-

taining MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl

Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen

Content 2.7% weight) in your vehicle.

Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0%

vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight)

may reduce vehicle performance and

produce vapor lock or hard starting.

✽✽NOTICE

Your New Vehicle Limited

Warranty may not cover damage to

the fuel system and any perform-

ance problems that are caused by

the use of fuels containing methanol

or fuels containing MTBE (Methyl

Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0%

vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)

SC PE CAN (ENG) 1.QXP 10/23/2020 8:08 PM Page 4

Introduction

Gasoline containing MMT

Some gasoline contains harmful man-

ganese-based fuel additives Such as

MMT(Methylcyclopentadienyl

Manganese Tricarbonyl). Kia does not

recommend the use of gasoline con-

taining MMT. This type of fuel can

reduce vehicle performance and affect

your emission control system. The

Malfunction Indicator Lamp on the

cluster may come on.

Do not use methanol

Fuels containing methanol (wood alco-

hol) should not be used in your vehicle.

This type of fuel can reduce vehicle

performance and damage components

of the fuel system, engine control sys-

tem and emission control system.

Fuel Additives

Kia recommends that you use good

quality gasolines treated with deter-

gent additives such as TOP TIER

Detergent Gasoline, which help pre-

vent deposit formation in the engine.

These gasolines will help the engine

run cleaner and enhance performance

of the Emission Control System. For

more information on TOP TIER

Detergent Gasoline, please go to the

website (www.toptiergas.com)

For customers who do not use TOP

TIER Detergent Gasoline regularly,

and have problems starting or the

engine does not run smoothly, addi-

tives that you can buy separately may

be added to the gasoline.

If TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is not

available, one bottle of additive should

be added to the fuel tank at every

12,000 km (7,500 miles) or every

engine oil change is recommended.

Additives are available from your

authorized Kia dealer along with infor-

mation on how to use them. Do not

mix other additives.

Operation in foreign countries

If you are going to drive your vehicle

in another country, be sure to:

• Observe all regulations regarding

registration and insurance.

• Determine that acceptable fuel is

available.

Introduction

This vehicle should not be modified.

Modification of your vehicle could

affect its performance, safety or

durability and may even violate gov-

ernmental safety and emissions reg-

ulations.

In addition, damage or performance

problems resulting from any modifi-

cation may not be covered under

warranty.

• If you use unauthorized electronic

devices, it may cause the vehicle to

operate abnormally, wire damage,

battery discharge and fire. For your

safety, do not use unauthorized

electronic devices.

No special break-in period is need-

ed. By following a few simple precau-

tions for the first 1,000 km (600

miles) you may add to the perform-

ance, economy and life of your vehi-

cle.

• Do not race the engine.

• While driving, keep your engine

speed (rpm, or revolutions per

minute) between 2,000 rpm and

4,000 rpm.

• Do not maintain a single speed for

long periods of time, either fast or

slow. Varying engine speed is

needed to properly break-in the

engine.

• Avoid hard stops, except in emer-

gencies, to allow the brakes to seat

properly.

• Don't tow a trailer during the first

2,000 km (1,200 miles) of operation.

• Fuel economy and engine perform-

ance may vary depending on vehi-

cle break-in process and stabilize

after driving about 6,000 km (3,750

miles) Engines may consume

more oil during the vehicle break-in

period.

Introduction

VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS

This vehicle is equipped with an

event data recorder (EDR). The

main purpose of an EDR is to

record, in certain crash or near

crash-like situations, such as an

air bag deployment or hitting a

road obstacle, data that will assist

in understanding how a vehicle's

systems performed. The EDR is

designed to record data related to

vehicle dynamics and safety sys-

tems for a short period of time,

typically 30 seconds or less. The

EDR in this vehicle is designed to

record such data as:

* How various systems in your

vehicle were operating;

* Whether or not the driver and

passenger safety belts were

buckled/ fastened;

* How far (if at all) the driver was

depressing the accelerator

and/or brake pedal; and,

* How fast the vehicle was travel-

ing.

These data can help provide a bet-

ter understanding of the circum-

stances in which crashes and

injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data

are recorded by your vehicle only

if a non-trivial crash situation

occurs; no data are recorded by

the EDR under normal driving con-

ditions and no personal data (e.g.,

name, gender, age, and crash loca-

tion) are recorded. However, other

parties, such as law enforcement,

could combine the EDR data with

the type of personally identifying

data routinely acquired during a

crash investigation.

To read data recorded by an EDR,

special equipment is required, and

access to the vehicle or the EDR is

needed. In addition to the vehicle

manufacturer, other parties, such

as law enforcement, that have the

special equipment, can read the

information if they have access to

the vehicle or the EDR.
