WARNING
 Do not strike the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies.
 Do not attempt to service or
repair the pre-tensioner seat
belt system in any manner.
 Improper handling of the pre-
tensioner seat belt assem-
blies, and failure to heed the
warnings not to strike, modify,
inspect, place, service or
repair the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies may lead to
improper operation or inad-
vertent activation causing
serious injury.
Always wear the seat belts
when driving or riding in a
motor vehicle.
CAUTION
Because the sensor that acti-
vates the SRS airbag is con-nected with pre-tensioner seatbelt, the SRS airbag warninglight on the instrument panelwill blink or illuminate forapproximately 6 seconds afterthe ignition key has beenturned to the “ON”position,
then the light should go off.
 If the pre-tensioner seat belt is
not working properly, thiswarning light will illuminateeven if there is no malfunctionof SRS airbag system. If theSRS airbag warning light doesnot illuminate when the igni-tion key is turned to “ON”,or
if it remains illuminated after blinking or illuminating forapproximately 6 seconds, or ifit illuminates while the vehicleis being driven, please havean authorized Kia dealerinspect the pre-tensioner seatbelt or SRS airbag system assoon as possible.
WARNING
 Pre-tensioners are designed
to operate once. After activa-
tion, pre-tensioner seat belts
must be replaced. All seat
belts, of any type, should
always be replaced after they
have been worn during a colli-
sion.
 Do not attempt to inspect or
replace the pre-tensioner seat
belts yourself. This must be
done by an authorized Kia
dealer.
CAUTION
The pre-tensioner seat belt
assembly mechanisms becomehot during activation. Do nottouch the pre-tensioner seatbelt assembly for several min-utes after they have been acti-vated.

What your airbag system doesDriver’s airbag and front passenger’ s
airbag are designed to supplement
the protection offered by the safety
belt in certain frontal collisions.
Likewise, side airbag and curtain
airbags are designed to supplement
the protection offered by the safety
belt in side collisions. Safety belts
are designed to reduce the injury of
the driver or passengers in case of
light impact or collision. However, to
help reduce impact on driver or pas-
sengers in a serious collision, seat
belts must also be correctly worn.
What your airbag system does
not doThe air bag system is designed to
supplement the protection offered by
the safety belt system. IT IS NOT A
SUBSTITUTE FOR THE SAFETY
BELT.

 A diagnostic system that continual-
ly monitors the system operation.
 An indicator light to warn you of a

 If your vehicle has been sub-
jected to flood conditions (e.g.
soaked carpeting/standing
water on the floor of the vehi-
cle, etc.) or if your vehicle has
become flood damaged in any
way, do not attempt to start
the vehicle or put the key in
the ignition before discon-
necting the battery. This may
cause airbag deployment,
which could result in serious
personal injury or death. If
flooded conditions are sub-
jected to your vehicle, before
starting the vehicle, have the
vehicle towed to an authorized
Kia dealer for inspection and
necessary repairs.

Why didn’t my airbag go off in
a collision? (Inflation and non-inflation condi-
tions of the airbag)There are many types of accidents in
which the airbag would not be
expected to provide additional pro-
tection.
These include rear impacts, second
or third collisions in multiple impact
accidents, as well as low speed
impacts. In other words, just because
your vehicle is damaged and even if
it is totally unusable, don’t be sur-
prised that the airbags did not inflate.

Airbag warning lightThe purpose of airbag warning light
in your instrument panel is to alert
you of a potential problem with your
airbag - Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS). When the ignition switch is turned
ON, the indicator light should blink or
illuminate for approximately 6 sec-
onds, then go off.
Have the system checked if:

The light does not turn on briefly
when you turn the ignition ON.
 The light stays on after the engine
starts.
 The light comes on while the vehi-
cle is in motion.
Airbag (Supplemental
Restraint System) service Your Supplemental Restraint System
is virtually maintenance-free. There
are no parts which you can service.
You must have the system serviced
under the following circumstances:
If an airbag ever inflates, the airbag
must be replaced. Do not try to
remove or discard the airbag by
yourself. This must be done by an
authorized Kia dealer or service
representative
 If the airbag warning indicator light
alerts you to a problem, have the
airbag system checked as soon as
possible. Otherwise, your airbag
system may be ineffective.
The entire SRS system must be
inspected by an authorized Kia deal-
er in 10 years after the vehicle man-
ufacture date.
