* 1. Fuel additives : Kia recommends that you use Tier 1 unleaded gasoline which has
an octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher. For
customers who do not use good quality gasolines including fuel additives regularly,
and have problems starting or the engine does not run smoothly, one bottle of
additives should be added to the fuel tank at every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). Addi-
tives are available from an authorized Kia dealer. Do not mix with other additives.
* 2. Engine oil and engine oil filter : As it is normal for engine oil to be consumed
during driving, the engine oil level should be checked on regular basis. The engine
oil change interval for normal operating conditions is based on the use of the rec-
ommended engine specification. If the recommended engine oil specification is not
used, then replace the engine oil according to the maintenance schedule under
severe operating conditions.
* 3. Spark plug : For your convenience, it can be replaced prior to it's interval when
you do maintenance of other items.
* 4. Coolant (Engine) : When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water
for your vehicle and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at the factory. An
improper coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine damage.
