Installing a child restraint system For safety reasons, we recommend that
the child restraint system be used in the
rear seats.
Since all passenger safety belts move
freely under normal conditions and only
lock under extreme or emergency condi-
tions (emergency lock mode), you must
manually change these safety belts to
the auto lock mode to secure a child
restraint.
WARNING
- Child seat
installation
Before installing the child
restraint system, read the instruc-
tions supplied by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
If the safety belt does not operate as described in this section, have
the system checked immediately
by your authorized Kia dealer.
Failure to observe this manual's instructions regarding child
restraint system and the instruc-
tions provided with the child
restraint system could increase
the chance and/or severity of
injury in an accident.
WARNING
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger
seat, because of the danger that an
inflating passenger side air bag
could impact the rear-facing child
restraint and kill the child.
(Continued)
Never allow a child to stand up orkneel while the vehicle is moving.
Never use an infant carrier or child seat that "hooks" over a
seatback. It will not provide ade-
quate protection in an accident.
Never allow a child to be held while they are in a moving vehi-
cle, 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 moving vehi-
cle does not provide the child
with any protection during an
accident, even if the person hold-
ing the child is wearing a seat
belt.

What your air bag system doesDriver’s air bag and front passenger’s air
bag are designed to supplement the pro-
tection offered by the safety belt in cer-
tain frontal collisions. Likewise, side air
bag and curtain air bags 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 impact or
collision. No safety belt or air bag system
can completely eliminate injuries that
may cause in collisions or impacts. To
help reduce impact on driver or passen-
gers in any collision, safety belts must be
correctly worn.What your air bag system does
not doThe air bag system is designed to sup-
plement the protection offered by the
safety belt system. IT IS NOT A SUB-
STITUTE FOR THE SAFETY BELT.
The importance of using
safety beltsThere are four very important reasons to
use safety belts even with an air bag sup-
plemental restraint system. They:
help keep you in the proper position (away from the air bag) when it inflates.
reduce the risk of harm in rollover, side impact (vehicles not equipped with
side and curtain air bags) or rear
impact collisions, because an air bag is
not designed to inflate in such situa-
tions and even a side curtain air bag is
designed to inflate only in certain side
impact collisions.
reduce the risk of harm in frontal or side collisions which are not severe
enough to actuate the air bag supple-
mental restraint system.
reduce the risk of being ejected from your vehicle.

Occupant classification systemThe occupant classification system
detects the presence of a passenger in
the front passenger's seat and will turn off
the front passenger's air bag under cer-
tain conditions.
The occupant classification system is
designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated occupant and determine
if the front passenger's air bag should be
enabled (may inflate) or not.
Only the front passenger front air bag and
front passenger side air bag are con-
trolled by the Occupant Classification
System.
WARNING
- Air bags &
safety belts
Even in vehicles with air bags,
you and your passengers must
always wear the safety belts pro-
vided in order to minimize the risk
and severity of injury in the event
of a collision or rollover.
Always wear your safety belt. It can help keep you away from the
air bags during heavy braking
just before a collision.
If occupants are not wearing safe- ty belts or correctly seated, they
cannot be protected, and thus
face serious injury or death.
Driver’s and front passenger’s air bag are designed to inflate only in
certain frontal collision, and side
and curtain air bags are designed
to inflate in certain side impacts.
Frontal air bags will generally not
provide protection in side impacts
(vehicles not equipped with side
and curtain air bags) or rear
impacts, rollovers, less severe
frontal collisions. They will not pro-
vide protection from later impacts
in a multi-impact collision.

If your vehicle has been subject-ed to flood conditions (e.g.
soaked carpeting/standing water
on the floor of the vehicle, 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 dis-
connecting the battery.
Disregarding this precaution may
cause air bag deployment, which
could result in serious personal
injury or death. If your vehicle is
subjected to flooded conditions,
before starting the vehicle, have
the vehicle towed to an autho-
rized Kia dealer for inspection
and necessary repairs.

3 The "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator illuminates after the ignition
key is turned to the "ON" position or
after the engine is started. If the front
passenger seat is unoccupied or is
occupied by very small person, or is
occupied by someone who is improp-
erly seated, the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator will remain illumi-
nated. If the front passenger seat is
occupied by someone of adult size and
body shape, the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator will turn off after
approximately 4 seconds.
If the front passenger's seat is unoccu- pied, the “PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF” indicator will turn on, and the
front passenger's air bag will not
deploy in frontal crashes.
If the “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator illuminates, the front passen-
ger’s air bag will not deploy in frontal
crashes.
If the front passenger’s seat is occu- pied by a person of adult size, the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indica-
tor is not illuminated and the front pas-
senger’s air bag will deploy in frontal
crashes.

*1The system detects a person who is generally adult size as an adult, thus allowing the pas-
senger air bag to deploy. When a smaller adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system
may detect their body shape as that of a child, thus preventing air bag deployment.
*2When a larger child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as an adult depending on his/her body shape or seating
position, thus permitting air bag deployment.
CAUTION
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator illuminates or blinks continuous- ly when a person of adult size sits in the front passenger's seat, it could bebecause that person isn't sitting properly in the seat. If this happens, turn the vehicle off, make sure the seat back is not reclined, have the passenger cen-ter on the seat cushion, with legs comfortably extended, and the safety beltproperly positioned. Restart the vehicle and have the person remain in thisposition long enough to allow the system to detect the person and activate the passenger air bag.

✽
✽NOTICE• If luggage or other objects are placed
on the front passenger's seat or if the
temperature of the seat changes while
the seat is unoccupied, the "PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF" indicator may
blink. These conditions do not indi-
cate a problem.
•Do not put heavy objects on the front
passenger's seat. This may cause front
passenger air bag deployment in the
event of an accident, thus increasing
your repair costs.
WARNING
The front seat passenger air bag
is much larger than the steering
wheel air bag 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 prop-
erly. 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 pas-
senger always wears their safety
belts, even when the vehicle is
moving in a parking lot or up a dri-
veway into garage.
(Continued)
(Continued) Any other such replacement or
modification could adversely
affect the operation of the occu-
pant classification system and
your advanced air bags. For the
same reason, do not attach any-
thing to the seat, dashboard or
door, even temporarily. If the sys-
tem is adversely affected, it could
cause severe personal injuries or
death in a collision.
Do not put a heavy load in the front
passenger seatback pocket or on
the front passenger seat. Do not
hang onto the front passenger
seat. Do not hang any items such
as seatback table on the front pas-
senger seatback. Do not place feet
on the front passenger seatback.
Do not place any items under the
front passenger seat. Any of these
could interfere with proper sensor
operation.
(Continued)
Kia does not endorse nor will it support any changes to any part
or structure of the vehicle that
could affect the advanced air bag
system, including the occupant
classification system.
Specifically, the front passenger
seat, dashboard or door should
not be replaced except by an
authorized Kia dealer using origi-
nal Kia parts designed for this
vehicle and model.

Features of your vehicle
The advanced SRS offers the ability to
control the air bag inflation with two lev-
els. A first stage level is provided for mod-
erate-severity impacts. A second stage
level is provided for more severe impacts.
According to the impact severity, seating
position and safety belt usage, the
SRSCM (SRS Control Module) controls
the air bag inflation.Failure to properly
wear safety belts can increase the risk
or severity of injury in an accident.
Additionally, your SRS is equipped with
an occupant classification system in the
front passenger’s seat. The occupant
classification system detects the pres-
ence of a passenger in the front passen-
ger’s seat and will turn off the front pas-
senger’s air bag under certain conditions.
For more detail, see “Occupant
Classification System” in this section.
CAUTION
If the seat position sensor is not working properly, the SRS air bagwarning light on the instrumentpanel will illuminate even if there isno malfunction of the SRS air bag system, because the SRS air bagwarning light is connected with the seat position sensor. If the SRS airbag warning light does not illumi- nate when the ignition key is turnedto the "ON" position, if it remainsilluminated after illuminating or blinking for approximately 6 sec-onds, or if it illuminates while thevehicle is being driven, have an authorized Kia dealer inspect theseat position sensor and the advanced SRS air bag system assoon as possible.
WARNING
Modification to the seat structure can adversely affect the seat
position sensor and cause the air
bag to deploy at a different level
than should be provided.
Failure to properly wear safety belts can increase the risk or
severity of injury by causing the
air bags to deploy at a different
level than should be provided.
Do not place any objects under- neath the front seats which could
damage the seat position sensor
or interfere with the occupant
classification system.
Do not place any objects that may cause magnetic fields near the
front seat. These may cause a
malfunction of the seat position
sensor.
