Adjust a shift cable. |
| • |
Refill engine with engine oil. |
| • |
Refill a transmission with fluid. |
| • |
Refill a radiator and a reservoir tank with engine coolant. |
| • |
Inspect for fuel leakage. |
| – |
After assemble the fuel line, turn on the ignition switch (do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump runs for approximately two seconds and fuel line pressurizes. |
| – |
Repeat this operation two or three times, then check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line. |
| • |
Bleed air from the cooling system. |
| – |
Start engine and let it run until it warms up. (until the radiator fan operates 3 or 4 times.) |
| – |
Turn Off the engine. Check the level in the radiator, add coolant if needed. This will allow trapped air to be removed from the cooling system. |
Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: The Eco-coasting system
When certain conditions are met, the engine is automatically decoupled from the transmission while the shift lever is remained in D (Drive). In this ECO Coasting mode, the engine stays at idling speed to reduce fuel consumption and increase coasting distance. The engine is automatically coupled back again when ECO Coasting deactivation conditions are met.Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: How to use the Smart Liftgate
The liftgate can be opened with notouch activation satisfying all the conditions below. After 15 seconds when all doors are closed and locked Positioned in the detecting area for more than 3 seconds. ✽ NOTICE • The Smart Liftgate does not operate when: - The smart key is detected within 15 seconds after the doors are closed and locked, and is continuously detected.
