Brake fluid
Check the condition and connections of
all cooling system hoses.
Replace any swollen or deteriorated
hoses. The coolant level should be filled
between F (MAX) and L (MIN) marks on
the side of the coolant reservoir when
motor compartment is cool. When the
coolant level (in the reservoir) is low,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer. Use only desig
-
nated coolant water for electric vehicles,
adding other types of water or anti
-
freeze can damage the vehicle.
Brake fluid
The brake fluid acts to transmit force to
the brake when the driver depresses the
brake pedal. Brake fluid must be main
-
tained periodically to ensure that the
brakes operate smoothly.
Checking the brake 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 fluid, clean the area
around the reservoir cap thoroughly
to prevent brake fluid contamination.
CAUTION
Proper fluid
Only use brake fluid in the brake system.
Small amounts of improper fluids can
cause damage to the brake system.
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, have the brake sys
-
tem checked by an authorized Kia
dealer.
