Petrol engine

Unleaded

For Europe

For the optimal vehicle performance, we

recommend you to use unleaded petrol

which complies with EN 228 and has an

octane rating of RON (Research Octane

Number) 95 / AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91

or higher.

You may use unleaded petrol with an

octane rating of RON 91~94 / AKI 87~90

but it may result in slight performance

reduction of the vehicle.

Except Europe

Your new KIA vehicle is designed to use

only unleaded fuel having an Octane

Rating of RON (Research Octane

Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock Index) 87

or higher.

Your new vehicle is designed to obtain

maximum performance with UNLEADED

FUEL, as well as minimise exhaust emis-

sions and spark plug fouling.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

WARNING

A WARNING indicates a situation in

which harm, serious bodily injury or

death could result if the warning is

ignored.

CAUTION

A CAUTION indicates a situation in

which damage to your vehicle could

result if the caution is ignored.

FUEL REQUIREMENTS

Introduction

Leaded (if equipped)

For some countries, your vehicle is

designed to use leaded petrol. When you

are going to use leaded petrol, ask an

authorised KIA dealer whether leaded

petrol in your vehicle is available or not.

Octane Rating of leaded petrol is same

with unleaded one.

Petrol containing alcohol and

methanol

Gasohol, a mixture of petrol and ethanol

(also known as grain alcohol), and petrol

or gasohol containing methanol (also

known as wood alcohol) are being mar-

keted along with or instead of leaded or

unleaded petrol.

Do not use gasohol containing more than

10% ethanol, and do not use petrol or

gasohol containing any methanol. Either

of these fuels may cause drivability prob-

lems and damage to the fuel system.

Discontinue using gasohol of any kind if

drivability problems occur.

Vehicle damage or drivability problems

may not be covered by the manufactur-

er’s warranty if they result from the use

of:

1. Gasohol containing more than 10%

ethanol.

2. Petrol or gasohol containing methanol.

3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.

WARNING

• Do not "top off" after the nozzle

automatically shuts off when

refuelling.

• Always check that the fuel cap is

installed securely to prevent fuel

spillage in the event of an acci-

dent.

CAUTION

NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The

use of leaded fuel is detrimental to

the catalytic converter and will

damage the engine control sys-

tem’s oxygen sensor and affect

emission control.

Never add any fuel system cleaning

agents to the fuel tank other than

what has been specified. (Consult an

authorised KIA dealer for details.)

CAUTION

Never use gasohol which contains

methanol. Discontinue use of any

gasohol product which impairs dri-

vability.

Use of MTBE

KIA recommends avoiding fuels contain-

ing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether)

over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%

weight) in your vehicle.

Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.

(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may

reduce vehicle performance and produce

vapour lock or hard starting.

Do not use methanol

Fuels containing methanol (wood alco-

hol) should not be used in your vehicle.

This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per-

formance and damage components of

the fuel system.

Fuel Additives

KIA recommends that you use good

quality petrols meet Europe Fuel stan-

dards (EN228) or equivalents.

For customers who do not use good

quality petrols including fuel additives

regularly, and have problems starting or

the engine does not run smoothly, one

bottle of additives added to the fuel tank

at every 15,000km (For Europe, Australia

and New Zealand)/5,000km (Except

Europe, Australia and New Zealand).

Additives are available from your autho-

rised KIA dealer along with information

on how to use them. Do not mix other

additives.

Operation in foreign countries

If you are going to drive your vehicle in

another country, be sure to:

• Observe all regulations regarding reg-

istration and insurance.

• Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-

able.

Diesel engine

Diesel fuel

Diesel engine must be operated only on

commercially available diesel fuel that

complies with EN 590 or comparable

standard. (EN stands for "European

Norm"). Do not use marine diesel fuel,

heating oils, or non-approved fuel addi-

tives, as this will increase wear and

cause damage to the engine and fuel

system. The use of non-approved fuels

and / or fuel additives will result in a limi-

tation of your warranty rights.

Diesel fuel of above cetane 51 is used in

your vehicle. If two types of diesel fuel

are available, use summer or winter fuel

properly according to the following tem-

perature conditions.

• Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer type

diesel fuel.

• Below -5°C (23°F) ... Winter type diesel

fuel.

Watch the fuel level in the tank very care-

fully : If the engine stops through fuel fail-

ure, the circuits must be completely

purged to permit restarting.

CAUTION

Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty

may not cover damage to the fuel

system and any performance prob-

lems that are caused by the use of

fuels containing methanol or fuels

containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary

Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol.

(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)

Introduction

Biodiesel

Commercially supplied Diesel blends of

no more than 7% biodiesel, commonly

known as "B7 Diesel" may be used in

your vehicle if Biodiesel meets EN 14214

or equivalent specifications. (EN stands

for "European Norm"). The use of biofu-

els exceeding 7% made from rapeseed

methyl ester (RME), fatty acid methyl

ester (FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester

(VME) etc. or mixing diesel exceeding

7% with biodiesel will cause increased

wear or damage to the engine and fuel

system. Repair or replacement of worn or

damaged components due to the use of

non approved fuels will not be covered by

the manufactures warranty.

Biodiesel (for New Zealand)

Commercially supplied Diesel blends of

no more than 7% biodiesel, commonly

known as "B7 Diesel" may be used in

your vehicle if Biodiesel meets EN 14214

or equivalent specifications. (EN stands

for "European Norm"). The use of biofu-

els exceeding 7%, made from rapeseed

methyl ester (RME), vegetable oil methyl

ester (VME) etc. or mixing diesel exceed-

ing 7% with biodiesel will cause

increased wear or damage to the engine

and fuel system. Repair or replacement

of worn or damaged components due to

the use of non approved fuels will not be

covered by the manufactures warranty.

CAUTION

Do not let any petrol or water enter

the tank. This would make it neces-

sary to drain it out and to bleed the

lines to avoid jamming the injection

pump and damaging the engine.

CAUTION - Diesel Fuel

(if equipped with DPF)

It is recommended to use the regu-

lated automotive diesel fuel for

diesel vehicle equipped with the

DPF system.

If you use diesel fuel including high

sulfur (more than 50 ppm sulfur)

and unspecified additives, it can

cause the DPF system to be dam-

aged and white smoke can be emit-

ted.

CAUTION

• Never use any fuel, whether

diesel, B7 biodiesel or otherwise,

that fails to meet the latest petro-

leum industry specification.

• Never use any fuel additives or

treatments that are not recom-

mended or approved by the vehi-

cle manufacturer.

CAUTION

• Never use any fuel, whether

diesel or B7 biodiesel or other-

wise that fails to meet the latest

petroleum industry specification.

• Never use any fuel additives or

treatments that are not recom-

cle manufacturer.

Introduction

61

No special break-in period is needed. By

following a few simple precautions for the

first 1,000 km (600 miles) you may add to

the performance, economy and life of

your vehicle.

• Do not race the engine.

• Whilst driving, keep your engine speed

(rpm, or revolutions per minute)

between 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.

• Do not maintain a single speed for long

periods of time, either fast or slow.

Varying engine speed is needed to

properly break-in the engine.

• Avoid hard stops, except in emergen-

cies, to allow the brakes to seat prop-

erly.

• Don't let the engine idle longer than 3

minutes at one time.

• Don't tow a trailer during the first 2,000

km (1,200 miles) of operation.
