Maintenance
Use only the specified brake fluid.
(Refer to "Recommended lubricants
and capacities" on page 8-10.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING
In the event the brake system
requires frequent additions of fluid,
the vehicle should be inspected by
an authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING
When changing and adding brake
fluid, handle it carefully. Do not let it
come in contact with your eyes. If
brake fluid should come in contact
with your eyes, immediately flush
them with a large quantity of fresh
tap water. Have your eyes examined
by a doctor as soon as possible.
CAUTION
Proper fluid
Only use brake fluid in the brake
system. Even small amounts of
improper fluids can cause damage
to the brake system.
CAUTION
Brake fluid
Do not allow brake fluid to contact
the vehicle's body paint, as paint
damage will result.
The brake fluid constantly absorbs
moisture from the air. This lowers
the boiling point of the brake fluid. If
the boiling point is too low, vapor
pockets may form in the brake sys-
tem when the brakes are applied
hard.
Brake fluid, which has been exposed
to open air for an extended time
should never be used as its quality
cannot be guaranteed. It should be
disposed of properly.
