external    appearance,    their   internal
designs differ significantly. These  filters
are not interchangeable. To avoid poten-
tial engine  damage,  use only  the speci-
fied  filter.  Consult  an  authorized   Kia

WARNING - Radiator hose
Be  very  careful  not   to  touch  the
radiator   hose  when   checking   or
