Introduction

Your new Kia vehicle is designed to use

only unleaded fuel having a pump octane

number ((R+M)/2) of 87 (Research

Octane Number 91) or higher.

Your new vehicle is designed to obtain

maximum performance with UNLEADED

FUEL, as well as minimize exhaust emis-

sions and spark plug fouling.

✽✽

NOTICE

Tighten the cap until it clicks one time,

otherwise the fuel cap open warning

indicator will illuminate.

Gasoline containing alcohol and

methanol

Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and

ethanol (also known as grain alcohol),

and gasoline or gasohol containing

methanol (also known as wood alcohol)

are being marketed along with or instead

of leaded or unleaded gasoline.

Pursuant to EPA regulations, ethanol may

be used in your vehicle. Do not use gaso-

hol containing more than 10% ethanol,

and do not use gasoline or gasohol con-

taining any methanol. Ethanol provides

less energy than gasoline and it attracts

water, and it is thus likely to reduce your

fuel efficiency and could lower your MPG

results. Methanol may cause drivability

problems and damage to the fuel system.

Discontinue using gasohol of any kind if

drivability problems occur. Vehicle dam-

age or drivability problems may not be

covered by the manufacturer's warranty if

they result from the use of:

1. Gasoline or gasohol containing

methanol.

2. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.

"E85" fuel is an alternative fuel comprised

of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent

gasoline, and is manufactured exclusively

for use in Flexible Fuel Vehicles. “E85” is

not compatible with your vehicle. Use of

“E85” may result in poor engine perform-

ance and damage to your vehicle's

engine and fuel system. Kia recommends

that customers do not use fuel with an

ethanol content exceeding 10 percent.

✽✽

NOTICE

Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty

does not cover damage to the fuel system

or any performance problems caused by

the use of “E85” fuel.

Gasoline containing MMT

Some gasoline contains harmful man-

ganese-based fuel additives such as MMT

(Methylcyclopentadi-enyl Manganese

Tricarbonyl).

Kia does not recommend the use of

gasoline containing MMT.

This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per-

formance and affect your emission con-

trol system.

The malfunction indicator lamp on the

cluster may come on.

FUEL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING -

Refueling
