an emergency without wheel
dollies, tow with the front
wheels off the ground and:
1. Set the ignition switch in the
ACC position.
2. Place the transaxle shift
lever in N (Neutral).
3. Release the parking brake.
Emergency towing
If towing is necessary, it is
recommended to have it done
by an authorised Kia dealer or a
commercial tow truck service.

remove the towing hook
from the tool case.

Engine Oil / Washer Fluid / Selective Catalytic Reduction
Checking the engine oil level [8]
Pull the dipstick out and check
the level. The level should be in
the C range.
Refilling engine oil [8]
Use only the specified engine oil
[9] and avoid spillage.
Checking the washer fluid
level [8]
Note: Diesel engine derivatives of the Sportage require an urea solution (also known as DEF (Diesel
Exhaust Fluid)) for emission control that is added to a separate tank. The filler for the urea tank is
located behind the fuel flap next to the diesel fuel filler.
If the urea level is not regularly checked and topped up this may cause the vehicle not to start.
Urea solution level gauge* [8]
Low urea solution warning
message* [8]
When “Refill Urea tank or
vehicle will not start” message
is displayed with SCR warning
lamp ( ), the vehicle can’t be
restarted once the engine is
turned off. For the above cases,
full replenishment is always
recommended.
Adding urea solution* [8]
Idle Stop & Go (ISG)
When enabled, ISG
automatically stops the
car’s engine to reduce fuel
consumption and emissions.
The ISG function may not
work if the car’s battery
charge status, ambient
temperature and/or engine
temperature is too low. Air
conditioning/heater control
settings may also affect ISG
function.
Parking brake (handbrake)
When engaging the parking
brake, apply the footbrake
first and keep it depressed.
Then apply the parking
brake.
We strongly recommend
to leave the car in first
or reverse gear or in the
‘P’ (Park) position on
automatics when leaving
the car.
Bluetooth®
Many of our cars have
Bluetooth® connectivity to
enable the driver to safely
enjoy the convenience of the
mobile phone. For Bluetooth®
compatibility please visit
