Knowing your vehicle
(Continued)
If driver brakes the vehicle
heavily in an urgent situa-
tions, occupants will be
thrown forward. If front pas-
sengers are not wearing the
safety belts, they will be
directly in front of the storage
compartment when inflation
occurs. In that situation, seri-
ous injury or death is possi-
ble.
 Never allow front passenger
to put their hands or feet on
the instrument panel or put
their face close to the instru-
ment panel. The airbag will
impact the front passenger
when it inflates.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Never allow children/old
and feeble persons/pregnant
women to sit on the front pas-
senger’ s seat. Do not put child
restraint system on the front
passenger’ s seat either. They
may be seriously injured by
the airbag inflation when
airbag deploys.
 Do not put objects or stickers
on the instrument panel. Do
not apply any accessory on
the front windshield glass or
do not install aftermarket mir-
rors or accessories on the fac-
tory installed rearview mirror.
These may interfere with the
deployment of airbag inflation
or could hit your body at high
speed and cause severe bodi-
ly injury and even death.
WARNING
The front seat passenger ’s
airbag is much larger than the
steering wheel airbag and
inflates with considerably
more force. It can seriously
hurt or kill a passenger who is
not in the proper position and
wearing the safety belt proper-
ly. The front passengers
should always move their seat
as far back as practical and sit
back in their seat.
 It is essential that the front
passengers always wear their
safety belts, even when the
vehicle is moving in a parking
lot or up a driveway into
garage.

Knowing your vehicle
If the curtain airbag deploys, it
remains inflated for approximately
3 seconds. The curtain airbag
deployment occurs only on the
side of the vehicle affected by the
impact.
 The side airbags (side and curtain
airbags) are not designed to
deploy during collisions from the
front or rear of the vehicle or in
most rollover situations.
 The curtain airbags are designed
to deploy only during certain side-
impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed and
impact. The curtain airbags are not
designed to deploy in all side
impact situations.
WARNING
In order for side airbags (side
and curtain airbags) to pro-
vide its best protection, both
front seat occupants and both
outboard rear occupants
should sit in an upright posi-
tion with the seat belts proper-
ly fastened. Especially, chil-
dren should sit in a proper
child restraint system.
 When children are seated in
the rear outboard seats, they
must be seated in the proper
child restraint system. Make
sure to put the child restraint
system as far away from the
door side as possible, and
secure the child restraint sys-
tem to be locked in position.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not allow the passengers
to lean their heads or bodies
onto doors, put their arms on
the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place
objects between the doors
and passengers when they are
seated on the seats where
side airbags are equipped.
 Never try to open or repair any
components of the side cur-
tain airbag system. This
should be done only by an
authorized Kia dealer.
Failure to follow the above men-
tioned instructions can result in
injury or death to the vehicle
occupants in an accident.

If the airbag deploys, it would impact
the rear-facing child restraint, caus-
ing serious or fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraint in the front passenger
seat either. If the front passenger
airbag inflates, it would cause seri-
ous or fatal injuries to the improperly
positioned or improperly restrained
child.

front passenger seat. If the
front passenger airbag
inflates, it would cause seri-
ous or fatal injuries.
 When children are seated in

child restraint system as far
away from the door side as
possible, and secure the child
restraint system to be locked
in position.
Inflation of side or curtain
airbag could cause serious
injury or death due to the
expansion impact.
