Maintenance Brake/clutch fluid
Kia recommends to visit an authorised
Kia dealer/service partner.
iMT system actuator fluid
When changing and adding iMT system
actuator fluid, handle it carefully.
Do not let it come in contact with your
eyes.
If iMT system actuator fluid should come
in Contact with your eyes, immediately
flush them with a large quantity of fresh
tap water.
Have your eyes examined by a doctor as
soon as possible.
Do not allow iMT system actuator fluid to
contact the vehicle's body paint, as paint
damage will result.
The iMT system actuator fluid, which has
been exposed to open air for an
extended time should never be used as
its quality cannot be guaranteed. It
should be properly disposed.
Don't put in the wrong kind of fluid. A
few drops of mineral based oil, such as
engine oil, in your iMT system actuator
can damage iMT system actuator parts.
Brake/clutch fluid
The brake/clutch fluid acts to transmit
force to the brake when the driver
depresses the brake pedal. Brake/clutch
fluid must be maintained periodically to
ensure that the brakes operate
smoothly.
Checking the brake/clutch fluid
level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
1. Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean
the area around the reservoir cap
thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch
fluid contamination.
2. Periodically check that the fluid level
in the brake fluid reservoir is between
MIN and MAX. The level will fall with
accumulated mileage. This is a normal
condition associated with the wear of
the brake linings. If the fluid level is
excessively low, we recommend that
the system be checked by a profes
-
sional workshop. Kia recommends to
visit an authorised Kia dealer/service
partner.
Use only the specified brake/clutch fluid.
(Refer to "Recommended lubricants and
capacities" on page 9-9.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
