CHECKING BRAKE/CLUTCH
FLUID LEVEL
Brake Fluid Reservoir
Before adding fluid, thoroughly clean the
area around the reservoir cap to prevent
brake fluid contamination.
If you add brake/clutch fluid, fill the
brake/clutch fluid reservoir to the MAX
line. The brake/clutch fluid level will
drop with accumulated mileage. This is a
normal condition associated with
brake/clutch lining wear.
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically; it should be between MAX
and MIN on the side of the reservoir.
If the fluid level is excessively low, have
the brake/clutch system checked by an
Authorized Kia Dealer.
Use only the specified brake/clutch fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended Lubricants”
later in this section.)
Do not mix different types of fluid.
NOTICE:
In the event the brake/clutch system
requires frequent additions of fluid,
the vehicle should be inspected by an
Authorized Kia Dealer.
