OWNER MAINTENANCE
We recommend that the following
lists are vehicle checks and inspec-
tions that should be performed by the
owner or an authorised Kia dealer at
the frequencies indicated to help
ensure safe, dependable operation
of your vehicle.
If you have any question, consult a
professional workshop. Kia recom-
mends to consult an authorised Kia
dealer/service partner.
These Owner Maintenance Checks
are generally not covered by war-
ranties and you may be charged for
labour, parts and lubricants used. Owner maintenance schedule
• Check coolant level in coolant
reservoir.
• Check the windscreen washer fluid
level.
• Look for low or under-inflated tyres.
• Check the radiator and condenser.
Check if the front of the radiator and
condenser are clean and not blocked
with leaves, dirt or insects etc.
If any of the above parts are
extremely dirty or you are not sure
of their condition, contact a profes-
sional workshop. Kia recommends
to visit an authorised Kia
dealer/service partner.
Whilst operating your vehicle:
• Check for vibrations in the steering
wheel. Notice any increased steer-
ing effort or looseness in the steer-
ing wheel, or change in its straight-
ahead position.
• Notice if your vehicle constantly turns
slightly or “pulls” to one side when
travelling on smooth, level road.
• When stopping, listen and check
for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or “hard-to-push” brake pedal.
• If any slipping or changes in the
operation of your reduction gear
occurs, check the reduction gear
fluid level.
• Check reduction gear P (Park)
function.
• Check for fluid leaks under your
vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
WARNING
When the coolant level is low,
have the reservoir filled by an
authorised Kia dealer/service
partner by using only designat-
ed coolant water for electric
vehicles. Using other types of
water or antifreeze can cause
serious damage to the vehicle.
