Hybrid System Overview
The Kia Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses both the petrol engine and the electric motor for power. The electric motor
is run by a 240V high-voltage HEV battery.
Depending on the driving conditions, the HEV computer selectively operates between the engine and the electric
motor or even both at the same time.
Fuel efficiency increases when the engine is at idle, or when the vehicle is driven by the electric motor with the HEV
battery.
The HEV battery charge must be maintained for the times when the engine acts as a generator, such as when
stopped at idle. Charging also occurs when decelerating or by regenerative braking.

PHEV (PLUG-IN ELECTRIC VEHICLE) SYSTEM
The Kia Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) shares the characteristics of both a conventional hybrid electric vehi-
cle and an all-electric vehicle.
When used as a conventional hybrid electric vehicle, the HEV computer selectively operates between the engine and
the electric motor or even both at the same time.
When it is operating in the electric vehicle mode, the vehicle is driven only using the electric motor over a certain dis-
tance until the hybrid battery becomes low. The driving distance in EV mode depends on customer driving style and road
conditions. Aggressive driving manoeuvres may at times temporarily enable the engine to operate for maximum power.
The hybrid battery can be fully charged by connecting a plug to an external electric power source.
An engine can be turned on due to factors such as heater and a frequent operation of the accelerator pedal by a driv-
er in CD mode.

Normal Maintenance Schedule - For Petrol Engine [Except Europe (Including Russia)]
The following maintenance services must be performed to ensure good emission control and performance. Keep receipts for all
vehicle emission services to protect your warranty.Where both mileage and time are shown, the frequency of service is determined
by whichever occurs first.
NO. ITEM REMARK
When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water for your vehicle and never mix
*1 Coolant (Engine / Inverter) hard water in the coolant filled at the factory. An improper coolant mixture can result in seri-
ous malfunction or engine damage.
• As it is normal for engine oil to be consumed during driving, the engine oil level should
be checked on regular basis.
*2 Engine oil and engine oil filter • The engine oil change interval for normal operating conditions is based on the use of
the recommended engine spec ification. If the recommended engine oil speci-
fication is not used, then replace the engine oil according to the maintenance
schedule under severe operating conditions.
Kia recommends that you use unleaded petrol which has an octane rating of RON
(Research Octane Number) 95 / AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher (for Europe) or Octane
Rating of RON (Research Octane Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock Index) 87 or higher (except
Europe).
For customers who do not use good quality petrols including fuel additives regularly, and
*3 Fuel additives (Petrol) have problems starting or the engine does not run smoothly, one bottle of additives added
to the fuel tank at every 15,000 km (10,000 miles) (for Europe, Australia and New
Zealand)/ 10,000 km (6,500 miles) (except Europe, Australia and New Zealand).
Additives are available from a professional workshop along with information on how to use
them. Kia recommends to visit an authorised Kia dealer/service partner. Do not mix other
additives.
