Fuel requirements
Gasoline engine
Unleaded
For the optimal vehicle performance,
we recommend you to use unleaded
gasoline with an octane rating of
RON (Research Octane Number) 95 /
AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher.
You may use unleaded gasoline
with an octane rating of RON 91~94
/ AKI 87~90 but it may result in
slight performance reduction of
the vehicle. (Do not use methanol
blended fuels.)
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as minimize
exhaust emissions and spark plug
fouling.
CAUTION
NEVER USE LEADED FUEL.The use
of leaded fuel is detrimental to the
catalytic converter and will damage
the engine control system's oxygen
sensor and affect emission control.
(if equipped)
Never add any fuel system cleaning
agents to the fuel tank other
than what has been specified.
(Kia recommends to consult an
authorized Kia dealer/service
partner for details.) (if equipped)
WARNING
• Do not "top off" after the nozzle
automatically shuts off when
refueling.
• Always check that the fuel cap
is installed securely to prevent
fuel spillage in the event of an
accident.
Leaded (if equipped)
For some countries, your vehicle
is designed to use leaded gasoline.
When you are going to use leaded
gasoline, Kia recommends to visit
an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner and ask whether leaded
gasoline in your vehicle is available
or not.
Octane Rating of leaded gasoline is
same with unleaded one.
