When fuel filler lid does not open
with the release button

If the fuel filler lid does not open using
the remote fuel filler lid release, you can
open it manually. Unsnap and remove the
panel in the cargo area. Pull the handle
outward.

(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 or 911. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.

CAUTION

• Make sure to refuel your vehicle

according to the “Fuel require-
ments” suggested in section 1.

• Check to make sure the fuel filler

cap is securely closed after refu-
eling. A loose fuel filler cap may
cause the "Check Engine"
(Malfunction Indicator) light in the
instrument panel to illuminate
unnecessarily.

• 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.

• If the fuel filler lid will not open in

cold weather because the area
around it is frozen, push or lightly
tap the lid.
