3Air bag (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 air bag ever inflates, the air bag
must be replaced. Do not try to remove
or discard the air bag by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized Kia
dealer.
 If the air bag warning indicator light
alerts you to a problem, have the air
bag system checked as soon as possi-
ble. Otherwise, your air bag system
may be ineffective.
When repairing or scrapping the
vehicles  Repairing steering wheel, instrument
panel, center console or roofs, or
installing car audio around center con-
sole or painting front metal sheet could
disable the air bag system. Have them
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
 When leaving the vehicle at an author-
ized Kia dealer, inform the facility that
the vehicle is equipped with an air bag
system, and leave the owner’ s manual
in the vehicle.
 Since the air bag system contains
explosive chemical substances, con-
tact an authorized Kia dealer when
scrapping the vehicle.
WARNING
- No mainte-
nance or repair
 Do not modify your steering
wheel, seat or any other part of
the Supplemental Restraint
System. Modification could make
the system inoperable.
 Do not work on the system’s com- ponents or wiring. This could
cause the air bags to inflate inad-
vertently, possibly seriously injur-
ing someone. Working on the sys-
tem could also disable the sys-
tem so that the air bags would not
deploy in a collision.
 Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing,
repairing, or any work on the
steering wheel must be per-
formed by a qualified Kia techni-
cian. Improper handling of the air
bag system may result in serious
personal injury or death.
CAUTION
- No modifica-tion
Do not modify any part of the air
bag system. Modification couldmake the air bag system ineffective or could cause unnecessarydeployment.

Power outlet (if equipped)The power outlets are designed to pro-
vide power for mobile telephones or
other devices designed to operate with
vehicle electrical systems. The devices
should draw less than 10 amps with the
engine running.
✽ ✽
NOTICE• Use when the engine is running and
remove a plug from the power outlet
after using the electric appliance.
Using when the engine stops or
remaining the electric appliance
plugged in for many hours may cause
the battery to discharge.
• Only use the electric appliances which are less than 12V and 10A in electric
capacity.
• Adjust the air-conditioner or heater to the lowest operation level when you
have to use the power outlet while
using the air-conditioner or heater.
• Close the cover when not in use.
• Some electronic devices can cause electronic interference and when
plugged into a vehicle's power outlet.
These devices may cause excessive
audio static and malfunctions in other
electronic systems or devices used in
your vehicle.

3How car audio worksAM and FM radio signals are broadcast
from transmitter towers located around
your city. They are intercepted by the
radio antenna on your car. This signal is
then received by the radio and sent to
your car speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached
your vehicle, the precise engineering of
your audio system ensures the best pos-
sible quality reproduction. However, in
some cases the signal coming to your
vehicle may not be strong and clear. This
can be due to factors such as the dis-
tance from the radio station, closeness of
other strong radio stations or the pres-
ence of buildings, bridges or other large
obstructions in the area. AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broadcasts.
This is because AM radio waves are
transmitted at low frequencies. These
long, low frequency radio waves can fol-
low the curvature of the earth rather than
travelling straight out into the atmos-
phere. In addition, they curve around
obstructions so that they can provide bet-
ter signal coverage.
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high
frequencies and do not bend to follow the
earth's surface. Because of this, FM
broadcasts generally begin to fade at
short distances from the station. Also,
FM signals are easily affected by build-
ings, mountains, or other obstructions.
These can result in certain listening con-
ditions which might lead you to believe a
problem exists with your radio. The fol-
lowing conditions are normal and do not
indicate radio trouble:AUDIO SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

Knowing your vehicle
• Fading - As your car moves away fromthe radio station, the signal will weaken
and sound will begin to fade. When this
occurs, we suggest that you select
another stronger station.
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the trans-
mitter and your radio can disturb the
signal causing static or fluttering nois-
es to occur. Reducing the treble level
may lessen this effect until the distur-
bance clears.
Station Swapping - As a FM signal weakens, another more powerful sig-
nal near the same frequency may
begin to play. This is because your
radio is designed to lock onto the clear-
est signal. If this occurs, select anoth-
er station with a stronger signal. Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals
being received from several directions
can cause distortion or fluttering. This
can be caused by a direct and reflect-
ed signal from the same station, or by
signals from two stations with close
frequencies. If this occurs, select
another station until the condition has
passed.
Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the
vehicle, noise may be produced from the
audio equipment. This does not mean
that something is wrong with the audio
equipment. In such a case, use the cellu-
lar phone at a place as far as possible
from the audio equipment.

CAUTION
When using a communication sys-tem such a cellular phone or a radioset inside the vehicle, a separate external antenna must be fitted.When a cellular phone or a radio setis used with an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehi-cle's electrical system and adverse- ly affect safe operation of the vehi-cle.
WARNING
Don’t use a cellular phone when
you are driving. The driver should
stop at a safe place to use a cellular
phone.
