Driving your vehicle
WARNING
Mounting chains
When mounting snow chains, park
the vehicle on level ground away
from traffic. Turn on the vehicle
Hazard Warning flashers and place a
triangular emergency warning
device behind the vehicle if available.
Always place the vehicle in P (Park),
apply the parking brake and turn off
the engine before installing snow
chains.
WARNING
Tire chains
The use of chains may adversely
affect vehicle handling.
Do not exceed 30 km/h (20 mph)
or the chain manufacturer's rec-
ommended speed limit, whichever
is lower.
Drive carefully and avoid bumps,
holes, sharp turns, and other road
hazards, which may cause the
vehicle to bounce.
Avoid sharp turns or lockedwheel
braking.
CAUTION
Chains that are the wrong size or
improperly installed can damage
your vehicle's brake lines, suspen-
sion, body and wheels.
Stop driving and retighten the
chains any time you hear them
hitting the vehicle.
Use high quality ethylene glycol
coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high
quality ethylene glycol coolant in the
cooling system. It is the only type of
coolant that should be used because
it helps prevent corrosion in the
cooling system, lubricates the water
pump and prevents freezing. Be
sure to replace or replenish your
coolant refer to "Normal mainte-
nance schedule - Non Turbo Models"
on page 7-10. Before winter, have
your coolant tested to assure that
its freezing point is sufficient for
the temperatures anticipated during
the winter.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on
the battery system. Visually inspect
the battery and cables (refer to "For
best battery service" on page 7-29).
The level of charge in your battery
can be checked by an authorized Kia
dealer or a service station.
