CAUTION -
Engine Oil
Pressure Warning Light
• If the engine does not stop
immediately after the Engine
Oil Pressure Warning Light is
illuminated, severe damage
could result.
• If the warning light stays on
whilst the engine is running, it
indicates that there may be
serious engine damage or
malfunction. In this case,
1. Stop the vehicle as soon as
it is safe to do so.
2. Turn off the engine and
check the oil level. If the oil
level is low, fill the engine
oil to the proper level.
3. Start the engine again. If the
warning light stays on after
the engine is started, turn
the engine off immediately.
In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends
to visit an authorised Kia
dealer/service partner.

Engine Oil Level
Warning Light
(if equipped)
The engine oil level warning light illu-
minates when the engine oil level
should be checked.
If the warning light comes on, check
the engine oil level as soon as possi-
ble and add engine oil as required.
Slowly pour the recommended oil lit-
tle by little into a funnel.(Oil refill
capacity : Approximately 0.6 l~1.0 l)
Use only the specified engine
oil.(refer to "Recommended lubri-
cants and capacities" in chapter 9.)
Do not overfill the engine oil to
ensure the oil level is not above F
mark on the dipstick.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• If you travel approximately 50 km
after adding the engine oil, the
warning light will go off.
• Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON
3 times within 10 seconds, the
warning light will go off immedi-
ately. However, when you turn off
the warning light without adding
the engine oil, the light will come
on again after travelling approxi-
mately 50km.
CAUTION
If the light comes on continu-
ously after adding the engine oil
and travelling approximately 50
km, have the vehicle inspected
by a professional workshop as
soon as possible. Kia recom-
mends to visit an authorised Kia
dealer/service partner. Even if
this light does not come on after
the engine has started, the
engine oil should be checked
and supplied periodically.
