AUTO FUEL CUTOFF SWITCH
The auto fuel cutoff switch is located on the passen-
ger’s side of the engine compartment. In the event
of a collision or sudden impact, the auto fuel cutoff
device cuts off the fuel supply. If this device is acti-
vated, it must be reset by pressing in on the top of
the switch before the engine can be restarted.

NOTICE
• If the fuel filler cap requires replacement,
use only a genuine Kia cap or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle. An incorrect fuel
filler cap can result in a serious malfunction
of the fuel system or emission control
system. Correct replacement caps are avail-
able at authorized Kia dealers.
• Do not spill fuel on the exterior surfaces of
the vehicle. Any type of fuel spilled on
painted surfaces may damage the paint.
• A loose fuel filler cap may cause the “Check
Engine” light in the instrument panel to illu-
minate unnecessarily.
• If the fuel filler lid will not open in cold
weather because the area around it is frozen,
push or lightly tap the lid.
WARNING
Before resetting the auto fuel cutoff
switch, the fuel line should be checked for
fuel leaks.
