BRAKE/CLUTCH FLUID (IF EQUIPPED)
Checking the brake/clutch
fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean
the area around the reservoir cap
thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch
fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the
MAX level. The level will fall with
accumulated mileage. This is a nor-
mal condition associated with the
wear of the brake linings.
If the fluid level is excessively low,
have the system checked by a pro-
fessional workshop. Kia recom-
mends to visit an authorised Kia
dealer/service partner.
Use only the specified brake fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants
or capacities” in chapter 9.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING
- Brake /
clutch fluid
When changing and adding
brake/clutch fluid, handle it
carefully. Do not let it come in
contact with your eyes.
If
brake/clutch fluid should come
in contact with your eyes, imme-
diately flush them with a large
quantity of fresh tap water. Have
your eyes examined by a doctor
as soon as possible.
WARNING
- Loss of brake/clutch fluid
In the event the brake/clutch
system requires frequent addi-
tions of fluid, have the system
Inspected by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to
visit an authorised Kia
dealer/service partner.

CAUTION
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to contact the vehicle's body
paint, as paint damage will
result. Brake/clutch fluid, which
has been exposed to open air
for an extended time should
never be used as its quality can-
not be guaranteed. It should be
properly disposed. Don't put in
the wrong kind of fluid. A few
drops of mineral-based oil, such
as engine oil, in your brake/
clutch system can damage
brake/clutch system parts.
