PARKING BRAKE
PARKING BRAKE
Checking the parking brake
Check the stroke of the parking
brake by counting the number of
"clicks" heard while fully applying it
from the released position.
Also, the parking brake alone should
securely hold the vehicle on a fairly
steep grade. If the stroke is more or
less than specified, we recommend
that the system be inspected by an
authorized kia dealer.
Stroke: 5~7 "clicks" at a force of 20
kg (44 lbs, 196 N).
Fuel Filter (for diesel)
Draining water from the fuel filter
The fuel filter for diesel engine plays
an important role of separating
water from fuel and accumulating
the water in its bottom.
If water accumulates in the fuel fil
ter, the warning light comes on
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
If this warning light illuminates,
take your car to a professional
workshop and have drain the water
and check the system. Kia recom
mends to visit an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
If the water accumulated in the fuel
filter is not drained at proper times,
damages to the major parts such as
the fuel system can be caused by
water permeation in the fuel filter.
