injector wiring may cause electric
shock or damage your muscle or
nerve system.

the operating injector may cause
the artificial heart pacemaker to
malfunction.

wirings, and the engine computer

• Performing maintenance work
on a vehicle can be danger-
ous. You can be seriously
injured while performing some
maintenance procedures. If
you lack sufficient knowledge
and experience or the proper
tools and equipment to do the
work, we recommend that the
system be serviced by an
authorized Kia dealer.

dangerous when you wear jew-
elry or loose clothing. These
