BRAKES AND CLUTCH (IF EQUIPPED)
Checking brake fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake fluid, clean the
area around the reservoir cap thor-
oughly to prevent brake fluid contam-
ination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the
MAX level. The level will fall with
accumulated mileage. This is a nor-
mal condition associated with the
wear of the brake linings. If the fluid
level is excessively low, have the
brake system checked by an
Authorised Kia Dealer.
Use only the specified brake fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended Lubricants”
in chapter 8.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
Checking clutch fluid level
(if equipped)
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding clutch fluid, clean the
area around the reservoir cap thor-
oughly to prevent clutch fluid con-
tamination.

Dealer.
