prevent damage to your vehicle and/or
injury to yourself whenever performing
any maintenance or inspection procedures.
Should you have any doubts concerning

An Authorized Kia Dealer has factory-
trained technicians and genuine Kia parts

Inadequate, incomplete or insufficient

problems with your vehicle that could lead
to vehicle damage, an accident or personal
injury.
OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITY
MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND
RECORD RETENTION ARE THE
OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITY.
You should retain documents to show that
proper maintenance has been performed
on your vehicle in accordance with the
scheduled maintenance service charts
shown on the following pages. You need
this information to be able to establish
your compliance with the servicing and
maintenance requirements of your Kia

Repairs and adjustments required as a
result of improper maintenance or a lack

We recommend that such maintenance be

establishment using automotive parts
equivalent to those with which your
