How to properly maintain the Kia Ceed timing belt?

I have a Kia Ceed and want to make sure I am properly maintaining the timing belt. What steps should I take to ensure its longevity and avoid any potential issues?

Regularly check the timing belt for signs of wear and tear, such as cracks or fraying. Replace it if needed according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

It's also important to keep an eye on the tension of the timing belt. If it becomes too loose or too tight, it can cause issues with the engine. Have a professional check and adjust the tension if necessary.

Don't forget to replace the timing belt at the recommended intervals. Waiting too long can lead to costly damage to the engine.
