WARNING
Cooling fan
Use caution when
working near the
blade of the cooling
fan. The electric motor
(cooling fan) is controlled by coolant
temperature, refrigerant pressure and
vehicle speed. It may sometimes operate
even when the vehicle is not running.
Checking the inverter coolant
level (PHEV)
If frequent additions are required, we
recommend that the system be
inspected by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorised
Kia dealer/service partner.
The inverter coolant level should be in
between MAX and MIN when the engine
is cooled down.

Adding other cooling substances or
water might lead to inverter cooling sys-
tem degradation or even failure.
