Knowing your vehicle
(Continued)
Since a safety belt or child
restraint system can become
very hot if it is left in a closed
vehicle, be sure to check the
seat cover and buckles before
placing a child there.
 When the child restraint sys-
tem is not in use, store it in the
trunk or fasten it with a safety
belt so that it will not be
thrown forward in the case of
a sudden stop or an accident.
 Children who are too large to
be in a child restraint should
sit in the rear seat and be
restrained with the available
lap/shoulder belts. Never
allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Always make sure that the
shoulder belt portion of the
lap/shoulder belt is positioned
midway over the shoulder,
never across the neck or
behind the back. The lap belt
portion of the lap/shoulder
belt must always be posi-
tioned as low as possible on
the child's hips and as snug
as possible.
 If the seat belt will not proper-
ly fit the child the use of an
approved booster seat in the
rear seat must be used in
order to raise the child's seat-
ing height so that the seat belt
will properly fit the child.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Never allow a child to stand up
or kneel on the seat.
 Never use an infant carrier or
child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback; it may not
provide adequate security in
an accident.
 Never allow a child to be held
in a person's arms while they
are in a moving vehicle, as
this could result in serious
injury to the child in the event
of an accident or a sudden
stop. Holding a child in a mov-
ing vehicle does not provide
the child with any means of
protection during an accident,
even if the person holding the
child is wearing a seat belt.

WARNING
No one should be allowed to
occupy the trunk of the vehicle
at any time. If the trunk is par-
tially or totally latched and the
person is unable to get out,
severe injury or death could
occur due to lack of ventilation,
exhaust fumes and rapid heat
build-up, or because of expo-
sure to cold weather conditions.
The trunk is also a highly dan-
gerous location in the event of a

tected occupant space but

(unleaded fuel) only for the gaso-
line engine vehicles.
• Check to make sure the fuel filler cap is securely closed after refuel-
ing.

malfunction of the fuel system or
emission control system. Correct
replacement caps are available at
authorized Kia dealers.

around it is frozen, push or lightly
tap the lid.
When fuel filler lid does not open
