●
When lifting a plastic-cased battery, excesive pressure on acid to leak resulting in personal injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.
●
Never attempt to change the battery when the battery cables are connected.
●
The electrical ignition system works with high voltage.
Never touch these components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.
C.
Keep batteries out of the reach of children because batteries contain highly corrosive SULFURIC ACID. Do not allow battery acid to contact your skin, eyes, clothing or paint finish.
D.
If any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes and get immediate medical attention. If possible, continue to apply water with a sponge or cloth until medical attention is received.
If electrolyte gets on your skin, throughly wash the contacted area. If you feel a pain or a burning sensation, get medical attention immediately.
E.
Always read the following instructions carefully when handing a battery.
F.
Hydrogen, which is a highly combustible gas, is always presents in battery cells and may explode if ignited.
Handling And Storage The Battery
Battery Itself
●
Batteries should be stored in cool, dry (27 degrees Celsius) places and out of direct sunlight.
●
MF batteries are tightly sealed to prevent acid leakage.
However, tilting the battery to an angle of 45 degrees can cause acid to leak through the vents on the sides. Therefore, batteries should always be stored in their upright positions. Prevent placing any aqueous or solid (i.e. conductors) bodies on top of the battery.
●
It is extremely dangerous to use tools, such as hammers, on the battery terminals when connecting cables to the mounted battery.
Battery on Vehicle
●
When storing the vehicle for long periods of time, make sure to remove the memory fuse at junction box to prevent natural discharging.
●
Also, run the engine for battery charging within 1 month if the memory fuse wasn't removed from the start of vehicle storing.
If the memory fuse was removed, run the engine for battery charging within 3 months from the start of vehicle storing.
Lift And Support Points
warning
When heavy rear components such as suspension, fuel tank, spare tire, tailgate and trunk lid are to be removed, place additional weight in the luggage area before hoisting. When substatial weight is removed from the rear of the vehicle, the center of gravity may change and can cause the vehicle to tip forward on the hoist.
note
●
Since each tire/wheel assembly weights approximately 30lbs (14kg), placing the front wheels in the luggage area can assist with the weight distribution.
●
Use the same support points to support the vehicle on safety stands.
1.
Place the lift blocks under the support points as shown in the illustration.
2.
Raise the hoist a few inches (centimeters) and rock the vehicle to be sure it is firmly supported.
3.
Raise the hoist to full height to inspect the lift points for secure support.
Towing
If the vehicle needs to be towed, call a professional towing service. Never tow vehicle with just a rope or chain. It is very dangerous.
If the vehicle cannot be transported by flat-bed, if should be towed with the front wheels off the ground. If due to damage, the vehicle must be toward with the front wheels on the ground, do the following :
Manual Transmission
●
Release the parking brake.
●
Shift the transmission to neutral
Automatic Transmission
●
Release the parking brake.
●
Start the engine.
●
Shift to [D] position, then [N] position.
●

Special Tools
Use special tools when they are required.
Removal Of Parts
First find the cause of the problem and then determine whether removal or disassembly before starting the job.
Disassembly
If the disassembly procedure is complex, requiring many parts to be disassembled, all parts should be disassembled in a way that will not aggect their performance or external appearance.
1.
Inspection of parts
Each part, when removed, should be carefulley on spected for malfunction, deformation, damage, and other problems.
2.
Arrangement of parts
All disassembled parts should be carefully arranged for effective reassembly.
Be sure to separate and correctly identify the parts to be repllaced from those that will be used again.
3.
Cleaning parts for reuse
All parts to be used again should be carefully and thoroughly cleaned by an appropriate method.
Parts
When replacing parts, use KIA genuine parts.
Replacement
Standard values, such as torques and certain adjustments, must be strictly observed in the reassembly of all parts.
If removed, the following parts should always be replaced with new ones.
1.
Oil seals
2.
Gaskets
3.
O-rings
4.
Lock washers
5.
Cotter pins (split pins)
6.
Plastic nuts
Depending on their location.
7.
Selalant should be applied to gaskets.
8.
Oil should be applied to the moving components of parts.
9.
Specified oil or grease should be applied to the prescribed locations (oil seals, etc) before assembly.
Adjustment
Use gauges and testers to adjust correclty the parts to standard values correctly.
Electrical System
1.
Be sure to disconnect the battery cable from the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
2.
Never pull on the wires when disconnecting connectors.
3.
Locking connectors will click when the connector is secure.
4.
Handle sensors and relays carefully. Be careful not to drop them against other parts.
Ruber Parts And Tubes
Always prevent gasoline or from touching rubber parts or tubing.
Measuring Body Dimensiongs
1.
Basically, all measurements in this manual are taken with a tracking gauge.
2.
When a measuring tape is used, check to be sure there is no elongation, twisting or bending.
3.
For measuring dimensions, both projected dimensioners and actual - measurement dimensions are used in this manual.
Dimensions Projected
1.
These are the dimensions measured when the measurement points are projected from the vehicle's surface, and are the reference dimensions used for used for body alterations.
2.
If the length of the tracking gauge probes is adjustable, measure it by lengthening one of two probes as long as the different value in height of the two surface.
Measuring Actual Dimensions
1.
These dimensions indicate the actual linear distance between mesaurement points, and are used as the reference dimensions when a tracking gauge is used for measurement.
2.
First adjust both probes to the same length (A=A') before measurement.
note
Check the probes and gauge itself to make sure there is no free play.
Measurement Point
Measurements should be taken at the center fo the hole.
Checking Cables And Wires
1.
Check the terminal for tightness.
2.
Check terminals and wires for corrosion from battery electrolyte, etc.
3.
Check terminals and wires for open corcuits.
4.
Check wire insulation and coating for damage, cracks and degrading.
5.
Check the conductive parts of terminals for contact with other metallic parts (vehicle body and other parts).
6.
Check grounded parts to verify that there is complete continuity between thier attaching bolt(s) and the vehicle's body.
7.
Check for incorrect wiring.
8.
Check that the wiring is so clamped to the prevent contact with sharp corners of the vehicle body, etc. or hot parts (exhaust manifold, etc.)
9.
Check that the wiring is clamped firmy to provide enough clearance from the fan pulley, fan belt and other rotating or moving parts.
10.
Check that the wiring has a little space so that it can vibrate between fixed and moving parts such as the vehicle body and the engine.
Check Fuses
A blade type fuse test taps provided to allow checking the fuse itself without removing if from the fuse box. The fuse is good if the test lamp lights up when one lead is connected to the test taps (one at a time) and the other lead is grounded. (Turn the ignition switch so that the fuse circuit becomes operative)
Serivicing The Electrical System
1.
Prior to servicing the electrical system, be sure to turn off the ignition switch and disconnect the battery ground cable.
note
In the course of MFI or ELC system diagnosis, when the battery cable is removed, any diagnostic trouble code retained by the computer will be cleared. There fore, if necessary, record the diagnostic data before removing the battery cable.
2.
Attach the wiring harnesses with clamps so that there is no slack. However, for any harness which passes the engine or other vibrating parts of the vehicle, allow some slack within a range that does not allow the engine vibrations to cause the harness to come into contact with any of the surronding parts and then secure the harness by using a clamp.
3.
If any section of a wiring harness interferes with the edge of a parts, or a corner, wrap the section of the harness with tape or something similar in order to protect if from damage.
4.
When installing any parts, be careful not to pinch or damage any of the wiring harness.
5.
Never throw relays, sensors or electrical parts, or expose them to strong shock.
6.
The electronlic parts used in the computer, relays, etc. are readily damaged by heat. If there is a need for service operations that may cause the temperature to exceed 80°C (176°F), remove the electronic parts before hand.
7.
Loose connectors cause problems. Make sure that the connectors are always securely fastened.
8.
When disconnecting a connector, be sure to grip only the connector, not the wires.
9.
Disconnect connector which have catches by pressing in the direction of the arrows shown the illustration.
10.
Connect connectors which have catches by inserting the connectors until they make a clicking sound.
11.
When using a circuit tester to check continuity or voltage on connector terminals, insert the test probe into the harness side. If the connector is a sealed connector, insert the test probe through the hole in the rubber cap until contacts the terminal, being careful not to damage the insulation of the wires.
12.
To avoid overloading the wiring, take the electrical current load of the optional equipment into consideration, and determine the appropartate wire size.
