Maintenance
NOTICE
Insert the hinge(1) and engage the
clips when mounting the air cleaner
cover.
Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is operated in extreme-
ly dusty or sandy areas, replace the
element more often than the usual
recommended intervals. (Refer to
“Maintenance under severe usage
conditions” in this chapter.)
CAUTION
• Do not drive with the air clean-
er removed; this will result in
excessive engine wear.
• When removing the air cleaner
filter, be careful that dust or
dirt does not enter the air
intake, or damage may result.
• Use parts for replacement
from a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an
authorised Kia dealer/service
partner.
