CAUTION
If the oil pressure warning light
stays on whilst the engine is run-
ning, serious engine damage may
result. The oil pressure warning
light comes on whenever there is
insufficient oil pressure. In normal
operation, it should come on when
the ignition switch is turned on,
then go out when the engine is
started. If the oil pressure warning
light stays on whilst the engine is
running, there is a serious malfunc-
tion.
If this happens, stop the car as soon
as it is safe to do so, turn off the
engine and check the oil level. If the
oil level is low, fill the engine oil to
the proper level and start the engine
again. If the light stays on with the
engine running, turn the engine off
immediately. In any instance where
the oil light stays on when the
engine is running, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorised Kia dealer.
Engine oil level warning
light (if equipped, for diesel)
The engine oil level warning light illumi-
nates when the engine oil level should be
checked.
If the warning light comes on, check the
engine oil level as soon as possible and
add engine oil as required.
Slowly pour the recommended oil little by
little into a funnel. (Oil refill capacity :
approximately 0.6 ~ 1.0 l)
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer
to "Recommended lubricants and capac-
ities" in section 8.)
Do not overfill the engine oil to ensure
the oil level is not above F mark on the
dipstick.
Features of your vehicle
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• If you travel approximately 50
km~100 km after the engine warms
up, 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 immediately. However,
when you turn off the warning light
without adding the engine oil, the light
will come on again after travelling
approximately 50 km ~ 100 km after
the engine warms up.
CAUTION
If the light comes on continuously
after adding the engine oil and trav-
elling approximately 50 km~100 km
after the engine warms up, we rec-
ommend that the system be checked
by an authorised Kia dealer.
Even if this light doesn't come on
after the engine has started, the
engine oil should be checked and
supplied periodically.
