trolled
engine coolant temperature,
refrigerant pressure and vehicle
speed. It may sometimes oper-
ate even when the engine is not
running. Use extreme caution
when working near the blades of
the cooling fan so that you are
not injured by a rotating fan
blades. As the engine coolant
temperature decreases, the elec-
tric motor will automatically shut
off. This is a normal condition.
If your vehicle is equipped with
GDI, the electric motor (cooling
fan) may operate until you dis-
connect the negative battery

Check the condition and connections
of all cooling system hoses and
heater hoses. Replace any swollen
or deteriorated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled
between F (MAX) and L (MIN) marks
on the side of the coolant reservoir
when the engine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
distilled (deionized) water. Bring the
level to F (MAX), but do not overfill. If
frequent additions are required, have
the system inspected by a profes-
sional workshop. Kia recommends to
visit an authorised Kia dealer/service
partner.
