Introduction21Fuel requirementsINTRODUCTION
Fuel requirements
Your new vehicle is designed to use only unleaded fuel having a pump octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher. (Do not use methanol blend- ed fuels.)Your new vehicle is designed to obtain maximum performance with UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini- mize exhaust emissions and spark plug fouling.Never add any fuel system cleaning agents to the fuel tank other than what has been specified. (Consult an authorized Kia dealer for details.) 󳱽Tighten the cap until it clicks one time, otherwise the Check Engine light will illuminate.
WARNING
Refueling󳱽Do not "top off" after the nozzle automatically shuts off. Attempts to force more fuel into the tank can cause fuel overflow onto you and the ground causing a risk of fire.󳱽Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spillage, especially in the event of an accident.
Gasoline containing alcohol and methanol
Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and ethanol (also known as grain alco

hol), and gasoline or gasohol con -

tion Agency (EPA) regulations, etha -
nol may be used in your vehicle.Do not use gasohol containing more than 15% ethanol, and do not use gasoline or gasohol containing any methanol.
