The high-pressure cooling  system has a
reservoir filled with year round antifreeze
coolant. The reservoir is filled  at the fac-
tory.
Check   the  antifreeze    protection   and
coolant level at  least once a year,  at the
beginning   of  the   winter  season,   and
before traveling to a colder climate.
Turn the engine off and  wait until
it cools  down. Use  extreme care
when removing  the radiator  cap.
Wrap a thick towel  around it, and
turn it counterclockwise slowly to
the first stop. Step back while the
pressure   is  released   from   the
cooling  system.  When   you  are
sure  all  the  pressure  has  been
released, press down on the  cap,
using a thick towel, and  continue
Have engine oil and filter  changed by an
authorized  KIA dealer  according  to  the
Maintenance Schedule  at the  beginning
of this section.

tation  or  cancer  if  left  in  contact
with the skin for prolonged periods
of  time.  Used engine  oil  contains
chemicals that have caused cancer
in laboratory  animals. Always  pro-
tect  your   skin   by  washing   your

WARNING - Removing
radiator cap
Even if  the engine  is not operat-
ing,  do  not remove  the  radiator

coolant and steam  may still blow
out under pressure, causing seri-

Never attempt to remove the radi-
ator cap while the engine is oper-
ating or hot. Doing  so might lead
to  cooling   system   and  engine
damage.   Also,   hot  coolant    or
