Kia Sorento 2006 Manual de usuario

KIA, THE COMPANY

Congratulations! Your selection of a Kia was a wise investment. It will give you years of driv-

ing pleasure. Now that you are the owner of a Kia vehicle, you’ll probably be asked a lot of

questions about your vehicle and the company like “What is a Kia?”, “Who is Kia?”, “What

does ‘Kia’ mean?”.

Here are some answers. First, Kia is the oldest car company in Korea. It is a company that

has thousands of employees focused on building high-quality vehicles at affordable prices.

The first syllable,

Ki,

in the word “Kia” means “to arise from to the world” or “to come up out

of to the world.” The second syllable,

means “Asia.” So, the word

Kia,

means “to arise

from” or “to come up out of Asia to the world.”

Drive safely and enjoy your Kia!

VEHICLE HANDLING

INSTRUCTIONS

As with other vehicles of this type,

failure to operate this vehicle correct-

ly may result in loss of control, an

accident or vehicle rollover. Specific

design characteristics (higher ground

clearance, track, etc.) give this vehi-

cle a higher center of gravity than

ordinary cars. They are not designed

for cornering at the same speeds as

conventional 2-wheel drive vehicles.

Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneu-

vers. Again, failure to operate this

vehicle correctly may result in loss of

control, an accident or vehicle

rollover. Be sure to read the “on-

pavement’’ and “off-road’’ driving

guidelines, Section 5 in this manual.

VEHICLE BREAK-IN

PROCESS

No special break-in period is needed.

By following a few simple precautions

for the first 600 miles (1 000 km) you

may add to the performance, econo-

my and life of your vehicle.

• Do not race the engine.

• 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.

• Avoid full-throttle starts.
