Maintenance
AIR CLEANER
Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is operated in extremely
dusty or sandy areas, replace the ele-
ment more often than the usual recom-
mended intervals.
CAUTION
• Do not drive with the air cleaner
removed; this will result in exces-
sive engine wear.
• When removing the air
cleaner fil-
ter, be careful that dust or dirt
does not enter the air intake, or
damage may result.
• Use a Kia genuine part. Use of
non-genuine parts could damage
the air flow sensor.

Filter replacement
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 fair-
ly steep grade. If the stroke is more or
less than specified, have the parking
brake adjusted by an authorized Kia
dealer.
It must be replaced when necessary, and
should not be washed.
You can clean the filter when
inspecting
the air cleaner element.
Clean the filter by using compressed air.
Stroke : 5~6 “clicks’’ at a force of
20 kg (44 lbs, 196 N).
