Each symbols and specification on air
conditioning refrigerant label means as
below ;
1. Classification of refrigerant
2. Amount of refrigerant
3. Classification of Compressor lubri‐
cant
You can find out which air conditioning
refrigerant is applied your vehicle at
the label inside of the engine room.
Refer to “Refrigerant label” on page
9-21 for more detailed location of the
air conditioning refrigerant label.
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is low,
the performance of the air conditioning
is reduced. Overfilling also has a bad in‐
fluence on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by a
professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
