Knowing your vehicle

CAUTION
Use only portable plastic fuel
containers designed to carry
and store gasoline.
Do not use cellular phones
while refueling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from cellular phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.
When refueling, always shut
the engine off. Sparks pro-
duced by electrical compo-
nents related to the engine
can ignite fuel vapors causing
a fire. Once refueling is com-
plete, check to make sure the
filler cap and filler door are
securely closed, before start-
ing the engine.
• DO NOT use matches or a
lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle while at a gas station
especially during refueling.
Automotive fuel is highly flam-
mable and can, when ignited,
result in fire.
• If a fire breaks out during refu-
eling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gas
station and then contact the
local fire department.
•
•
Make sure to refuel your vehi-
cle according to the “Fuel
requirements” suggested in
section 5.

Check to make sure the fuel
filler cap is securely closed
after refueling. A loose fuel
filler
cap may cause the
"Check Engine" (Malfunction
Indicator) light in the instru-
ment
panel
to
illuminate
unnecessarily.
•
•
If the fuel filler cap requires
replacement, use only a gen-
uine Kia cap or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle. An
incorrect fuel filler cap can
result in a serious malfunction
of the fuel system or emission
control system.
Do not spill fuel on the exteri-
or surfaces of the vehicle. Any
type of fuel spilled on painted
surfaces may damage the
paint.

Automotive readers have rated 2010 Kia Sportage Owners Manual 3.0 out of 5.0 based on 4 product reviews. I think it is good and helpful thanks
The manual and the car is good. Your web site is like your dealers. Intrustive and obnoxious. Keep it simple and butt out of my life.
Excellent manual
