• Use antifreeze-formulated wind-

shield washer fluid. (Do not use

engine coolant antifreeze.)

• Do not use the parking brake if it

might freeze. When parking, shift

to 1 (First) or R (Reverse) with a

manual transaxle or P (Park) with

an automatic transaxle and block

the rear wheels.

Snow tires

If you mount snow tires on your Kia,

make sure they are radial tires of the

same size and load range as the

original tires. Mount snow tires on all

four wheels to balance your vehicle’s

handling in all weather conditions.

Keep in mind that the traction provid-

ed by snow tires on dry roads may

not be as high as your vehicle's orig-

inal equipment tires.You should drive

cautiously even when the roads are

clear. Check with the tire dealer for

maximum speed recommendations.

Do not install studded tires without

first checking local, state and munic-

ipal regulations for possible restric-

tions against their use.

WARNING - Snow tire

size

Snow tires should be equivalent

in size and type to the vehicle's

standard tires. Otherwise, the

safety and handling of your

vehicle may be adversely affect-

ed.
