In case of an emergency
OVERHEATING
If your  temperature gauge  indicates
overheating, if you experience a loss
of power, or if you hear a loud knock-
ing or pinging  noise, the engine  has
probably overheated.  Should any  of
these symptoms  occur,  use the  fol-
lowing procedure:
If coolant  is not boiling  out, allow
the  engine to  idle  and  open  the
hood to permit  the engine to  cool
gradually.
If  the  temperature  does   not  go
down with  the engine  idling, stop
the  engine   and  allow   sufficient
time for it to cool.
The  coolant level  should then  be
checked. If  the level  in the  reser-
voir  is  low,  look for  leaks  at  the
radiator  hoses  and   connections,
heater   hoses  and   connections,
radiator,  and  water  pump. If  you
find a major  leak or another prob-
lem  that   may  have  caused   the
engine to overheat, do not operate
the  engine until  it  has  been cor-
rected.   Call  an   Authorized   Kia
Dealer for assistance. If you do not
find a leak or other problem,  care-
fully add coolant to the reservoir.

I love my Kia, the only thing I have had to replace is tires and a battery. Bought it with 33K, now 2 years later with 87K, still running like a top.
