Owner maintenance precau-
tions
Improper or incomplete service may
result in problems. This section gives
instructions only for the maintenance
items that are easy to perform.
As explained earlier in this section,
several procedures can be done only
by an Authorized Kia Dealer with
special tools.
Improper owner maintenance dur-
ing the warranty period may affect
warranty coverage. For details,
read the separate Kia Warranty &
Consumer Information Manual
provided with the vehicle. If you're
unsure about any servicing or
maintenance procedure, have it
done by an Authorized Kia Dealer.
