Emergency fuel filler lid release

If the fuel filler lid does not open using
the remote fuel filler lid release, you can
open it manually with a coin or flat-blade
screwdriver, etc. Remove the panel in the
luggage compartment area. Pull the han-
dle out slightly.

(Continued)
• If a fire breaks out during refuel-

ing, leave the vicinity of the vehi-
cle, and immediately contact the
manager of the gas station and
then contact the local fire depart-
ment. Follow any safety instruc-
tions they provide.

CAUTION

• Make sure to refuel with unleaded

fuel only.

• If the fuel filler cap requires

replacement, use only a genuine
KIA cap or the equivalent speci-
fied for your vehicle. An incorrect
fuel filler cap can result in a seri-
ous malfunction of the fuel sys-
tem or emission control system.

• Do not spill fuel on the exterior

surfaces of the vehicle. Any type
of fuel spilled on painted surfaces
may damage the paint.

• After refueling, make sure the fuel

cap is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event of
an accident.

CAUTION

Do not pull the handle excessively,
otherwise the luggage compart-
ment area trim or release handle
may be damaged.
