ENGINE CLUTCH ACTUATOR FLUID
Checking the engine clutch
actuator fluid level
In normal drivinþ conditions, the actua‐
tor ýluid level does not þo down rapidly.
However, oil consumption rate may rise
as vehicle mileaþe increases, and leak‐
aþe in actuator related parts may re‐
sult in increased consumption oý the
enþine clutch actuator oil. Reþularly
check and make sure the enþine clutch
actuator oil ýluid level is between MIN
and MAX marks.
Iý the oil level is below MIN mark, have
the vehicle checked by a proýessional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Iý the ýluid level is excessively low, have
the system checked by a proýessional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Use only the speciýied enþine clutch ac‐
tuator ýluid.
(Reýer to Recommended lubricants or
capacities. on paþe 10-13.)
Never mix diýýerent types oý ýluid.
