NOTICE - Fuel gauge
Running out of fuel can expose vehi-
cle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain additional
fuel as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the
“E (Empty)” level.
State of charge (SOC)
The state of charge (SOC) gauge
indicates the hybrid battery's charge
level. If the SOC is near L level, the
vehicle automatically operates the
engine to charge the battery.
However, if the service indicator and
MIL(Malfunction indicator lamp) turn
on when the State of Charge(SOC)
is near L(Low), have your vehicle
checked by an authorized Kia dealer
immediately.
CAUTION - Low fuel
Avoid driving with extremely
low fuel level. Running out of
fuel could cause the engine to
misfire, damaging the catalytic
converter.
CAUTION
Never try to start the vehicle if
the fuel tank is empty. It is
impossible to charge the high
voltage battery of hybrid system
while cranking an engine with-
out fuel. If you try to start the
vehicle when the fuel tank is
empty, the high voltage battery
will be discharged and could be
damaged.
