NOTICE
- We recommend that when replacing tires, use the same tires as the originally supplied ones. If not, that affects driving performance.
- When driving in high altitude grades, it is natural for the atmospheric pressure to decrease. Therefore, please check the tire pressure and add more air when necessary. Additionally required tire air pressure per km above sea level: 1.5 psi (10.5 kPa)/km
- It is best to replace all four tires at the same time. If that is not possible, or necessary, then replace the two front or two rear tires as a pair. Replacing just one tire can seriously affect your vehicle’s handling.
CAUTION
When replacing tires, use the same size originally supplied with the vehicle. Using tires of a different size can dam-age the related parts or make it work irregularly.

Recommended lubricants and capacities
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only lubricants of the proper quality. Using the right lubricants help reduce engine friction and improve fuel efficiency.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.
| Lubricant | Volume | Classification | |
Engine oil*1*2 (drain and refill)
|
6.5 L (6.87 US qt.) | Full synthetic SAE 5W-30, ACEA A5 | |
| Automatic transmission (AT) fluid*3 | 7.0 L (7.4 US qt.) | SK ATF SP4M-1, MICHANG ATF SP4M-1, S-OIL ATF SP4M-1, Kia Genuine ATF SP4M-1 | |
| Coolant*4 | Approx. 12.2 L (12.9 US. qt.) | An Phosphate based ethylene glycol based coolant | |
| Brake fluid*5 | As required | SAE J1704 DOT-4 LV,ISO4925 CLASS-6, FMVSS 116 DOT-4 | |
| Rear differential oil (AWD) | AWD | 0.7 L (0.74 US qt.) | HYPOID GEAR OIL API GL-5, SAE 75W/85 (Recommended: SK HCT-5 GEAR OIL 75W/85 or equivalent) |
| Transfer case oil | AWD | 0.7 L (0.74 US qt. | HYPOID GEAR OIL API GL-5, SAE 75W/85 (Recom- mended: SK HCT-5 GEAR OIL 75W/85 or equiva- lent) |
| Fuel | 71 L (18.75 US gal.) | Gasoline | |
- Refer to “Recommended SAE viscosity number” on page 9-10.
- Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
- Use only specified genuine Automatic transmission fluid. The use of non-specified fluid (even marked as compatible with genuine) could result in shift quality deterio-ration and vibrations, eventually, the transmission failure. (Refer to “Explanation of scheduled maintenance items” on page 8-12.)
- Different type of coolant or water may damage the electrical component.
- To maintain your vehicle’s best brake and ABS/ESC performance, use Kia genuine brake fluid as in the specification.
Recommended SAE viscosity number
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick before checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that could be damaged. Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather oper-ating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher viscosity engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather.
Using oils of any viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine damage.
NOTICE
Never add any additives to the engine oil. Engine oil additives can change its proper-ties of engine oil and may cause serious engine failure. When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be oper-ated in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil viscosity from the chart.
Temperature Range for SAE Viscosity Numbers
(Gasoline) 3.8 GDi
An engine oil displaying this American Petroleum Institute (API) Certifica-tion Mark conforms to the International Lubricant Specification Advisory Committee (ILSAC). It is recommended to only use engine oils that uphold this API Certification Mark.
