has been released, press down on the
cap, using a thick towel, and continue
turning counterclockwise to remove it.

not remove the radiator cap or the

may still blow out under pressure,
causing serious injury.

sure and vehicle speed. It may
sometimes operate even when
the engine is not running. Use extreme
caution when working near the blades of
the cooling fan so that you are not
injured by a rotating fan blades. As the
engine coolant temperature decreases,
the electric motor will automatically shut
off. This is a normal condition.
Check the condition and connections of
all cooling system hoses and heater
hoses. Replace any swollen or deterio

rated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the coolant reservoir when the
engine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
distilled (deionized) or soft water. Bring
the level to MAX, but do not overfill.
If frequent additions are required, have
the system inspected by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
NOTICE
Make sure the coolant cap is properly
closed after refill of coolant. Otherwise
the engine could be overheated whilst
driving.
