Automatic transaxle fluid
(if equipped)
Automatic transaxle fluid should not
be checked under normal usage
conditions.
But in severe conditions, the fluid
should be changed at an authorized
Kia dealer in accordance to the
scheduled maintenance at the begin-
ning of this chapter.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Automatic transaxle fluid color is
basically red. As the vehicle is driv-
en, the automatic transaxle fluid will
begin to look darker.
This is a normal condition and you
should not judge the need to replace
the fluid based upon the changed
color.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transaxle mal-
function and failure.
Use only specified automatic
transaxle fluid. (Refer
"Recommended lubricants and
capacities" in section 8.)
