FUEL FILTER (FOR DIESEL)
Draining water from 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 filter, the
warning light comes on when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
If this warning light illuminates,
we recommend that the system
be serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer.
Fuel filter cartridge replacement
We recommend the fuel filter cartridge
be replaced by an authorized Kia dealer
according to the Maintenance Schedule
at the beginning of this chapter.
CAUTION
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.
