Kia RONDO 2007 Owner Manual

kia, tthe ccompany
Congratulations! Your selection of a KIA was a wise investment. It will give you years of driving pleasure. Now that you are the owner of a KIA vehicle, you’ll probably be asked a lot of questions about your vehicle and the company like “What is a KIA?”, “Who is KIA?”, “What does ‘KIA’ mean?”.
Here are some answers. First, KIA is the oldest car company in Korea. It is a company that has thousands of employees focused on building high-quality vehicles at affordable prices.
The first syllable, KI, in the word “KIA” means “to arise from to the world” or “to come up out of to the world”. The second syllable, a, means “Asia”. So, the word KIA, means “to arise from” or “to come up out of Asia to the world”.
Drive safely and enjoy your Kia!
i

Introduction
A020101AUN-EU
Your new vehicle is designed to use only unleaded fuel having a pump octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87 or highter.
Your new vehicle is designed to obtain maximum performance with UNLEADED FUEL, as well as minimize exhaust emis­sions and spark plug fouling.
A020103AUN-EU
Gasoline containing alcohol and methanol
Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and ethanol (also known as grain alcohol), and gasoline or gasohol containing methanol (also known as wood alcohol) are being marketed along with or instead of unleaded gasoline.
Do not use gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol, and do not use gasoline or gasohol containing any methanol. Either of these fuels may cause drivability prob­lems and damage to the fuel system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any kind if drivability problems occur.
Vehicle damage or drivability problems may not be covered by the manufactur­er’s warranty if they result from the use of:
1. Gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol.
2.Gasoline or gasohol containing methanol.
3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
"E85" fuel is an alternative fuel com­prised of 85 percent ethanol and 15 per­cent gasoline, and is manufactured exclusively for use in Flexible Fuel Vehicles. “E85” is not compatible with your vehicle. Use of “E85” may result in poor engine performance and damage to your vehicle's engine and fuel system. KIA recommends that customers do not use fuel with an ethanol content exceed­ing 10 percent.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION
Never add any fuel system cleaning agents to the fuel tank other than what has been specified. (Consult an authorized KIA dealer for details.)
CAUTION
Never use gasohol which contains methanol. Discontinue use of any gasohol product which impairs dri­vability.
CAUTION
Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover damage to the fuel system or any performance prob­lems caused by the use of “E85”fuel.
WARNING
• Do not "top off" after the nozzle automatically shuts off when refueling.
• Tighten the cap until it clicks, otherwise the Check Engine light will illuminate.
• Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spillage in the event of an acci­dent.

A020104AUN
Use of MTBE
KIA recommends avoiding fuels contain­ing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) in your vehicle.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may reduce vehicle performance and produce vapor lock or hard starting.
A020105AUN
Do not use methanol
Fuels containing methanol (wood alco­hol) should not be used in your vehicle. This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per­formance and damage components of the fuel system.
A020106AUN
Gasolines for cleaner air
To help contribute to cleaner air, KIA rec­ommends that you use gasolines treated with detergent additives, which help pre­vent deposit formation in the engine. These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and enhance performance of the Emission Control System.
A020107AUN
Operation in foreign countries
If you are going to drive your vehicle in another country, be sure to:
• Obser ve all regulations regarding reg­istration and insurance.
• Determine that acceptable fuel is avail­able.
A030000AUN
No special break-in period is needed. By following a f e w simple precautions for the first 1,000 km (600 miles) you may add to the performance, economy and life of your vehicle.
• Do not race the engine.
• While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute) between 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
• Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or slow. Varying engine speed is needed to properly break-in the engine.
• Avoid hard stops, except in emergen­cies, to allow the brakes to seat prop­erly.
• Don't let the engine idle longer than 3 minutes at one time.
• Don't tow a trailer during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) of operation.
VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCESS
CAUTION

WARNING - Driver’s seat
• Never attempt to adjust seat while the vehicle is moving. This could result in loss of control, and an accident causing death, serious injury, or property dam­age.
• Do not allow anything to interfere with the normal position of the seatback. Storing items against a seatback or in any other way interfering with proper locking of a seatback could result in serious or fatal injury in a sudden stop or collision.
• Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap por­tion of the seat belt snug and low across the hips. This is the best position to protect you in case of an accident.
• In order to avoid unnecessary and perhaps severe air bag injuries, always sit as far back as possible from the steering wheel while maintaining comfortable control of the vehicle. We recom­mend that your chest be at least 10 inches (250 mm) away from the steering wheel.
WARNING - Uprighting
seat
When you return the seatback to its upright position, hold the seatback and return it slowly and be sure there are no other occupants around the seat. If the seatback is returned without being held and controlled, the back of the seat could spring forward resulting in accidental injury to a person struck by the seatback.
WARNING - Loose objects
Loose objects in the driver’s foot area could interfere with the opera­tion of the foot pedals, possibly causing an accident. Do not place anything under the front seats.
WARNING - Driver respon-
sibility for passengers
Riding in a vehicle with seatback reclined could lead to serious or fatal injury in an accident. If a seat is reclined during an accident, the occupant’s hips may slide under the lap portion of the seat belt applying great force to the unpro­tected abdomen. Serious or fatal internal injuries could result. The driver must advise the passenger to keep the seatback in an upright position whenever the vehicle is in motion.

OUN026033
(Continued)
• When resetting the rear seatback to the upright position, make sure it is securely latched by pushing it forward and back­wards.
• To avoid the possibility of burns, do not remove the carpet in the cargo area. Emission controls beneath this floor generate high exhaust temperatures.
WARNING - Rear seat-
backs (2nd and/or 3rd row)
• The rear seatback must be securely latched. If not, passen­gers and objects could be thrown forward resulting in serious injury or death in the event of a sudden stop or collision.
• Luggage and other cargo should be laid flat in the cargo area. If objects are large, heavy, or must be piled, they must be secured. Under no circumstances should cargo be piled higher than the seatbacks. Failure to follow these warnings could result in serious injury or death in the event of a sudden stop, collision or rollover.
• No passenger should ride in the cargo area or sit or lie on folded seatbacks while the vehicle is moving. All passengers must be in seats and restrained properly while riding.
(Continued)
WARNING
After adjusting the seat, always check that it is securely locked into place by attempting to move the seat forward or reverse without using the lock release lever. Sudden or unexpected movement of the driver's seat could cause you to lose control of the vehicle result­ing in an accident.

2. Set the front seatback to the upright position and if necessary, slide the front seat forward or the rear seat backward.
WARNING
Never attempt to adjust while the vehicle is moving or the 2nd row seat is occupied as the seat may suddenly move and cause the pas­senger on the seat to be injured.
WARNING
The purpose of the fold-down rear seatbacks (or cushions) is to allow you to carry longer objects than could not otherwise be accommo­dated.
Never allow passengers to sit on top of the folded down seatback while the car is moving as this is not a proper seating position and no seat belts are available for use. This could result in serious injury or death in case of an accident or sudden stop. Objects carried on the folded down seatback should not extend higher than the top of the front seats. This could allow cargo to slide forward and cause injury or damage during sudden stops.

If the tailgate is pushed down when the passenger's head is not against a properly adjusted headrest, the tailgate may hit the occupant's head, which could cause injury.
