3. Pull the shoulder portion of thesafety belt all the way out. When
the shoulder portion of the safety
belt is fully extended, it will shift
the retractor to the “Auto Lock”
(child restraint) mode. 4. Slowly allow the shoulder portion
of the safety belt to retract and lis-
ten for an audible “clicking” or
“ratcheting” sound. This indicates
that the retractor is in the “Auto
Lock” mode. If no distinct sound is
heard, repeat steps 3 and 4. 5. Remove as much slack from the
belt as possible by pushing down
on the child restraint system while
feeding the shoulder belt back into
the retractor.

belt is holding it firmly in place. If it
is not, release the safety belt and

7. Double check that the retractor is
in the “Auto Lock” mode by
attempting to pull more of the safe-
ty belt out of the retractor. If you
cannot, the retractor is in the “Auto

the release button on the buckle and
then pull the lap/shoulder belt out of
the restraint and allow the safety belt
to retract fully.

retract to its fully stowed position,
the retractor will automatically
switch from the “Auto Lock” mode
to the emergency lock mode for nor-
mal adult usage.

with “Tether Anchor” systemChild restraint hook holders are
located on the shelf or floor behind
the rear seats.

WARNING
- Auto lock
mode
The lap/shoulder belt automati-
cally returns to the “emergency
lock mode” whenever the belt is
allowed to retract fully.
Therefore, the preceding seven
steps must be followed each
time a child restraint is
installed.
If the safety belt is not placed in
the “auto lock” mode, severe
injury or death could occur to
the child and/or other occupants
in the vehicle in a collision,
since the child restraint will not
be effectively held in place.

WARNING
- Side and cur-
tain air bags
 In order for side and curtain air bags to provide the best
protection, both front seat
occupants and both outboard
rear occupants should sit in
an upright position with the
safety belts properly fastened.
Importantly, children should
sit in a proper child restraint
system in the rear seat.
 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 in a locked position.
(Continued)
(Continued)
 If a small child is seated onthe rear outboard seat cush-
ion, it is probable that they will
below the deployment level of
the side curtain airbag and
thus not protected by that
airbag.
 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 seats equipped with
side air bags.
 Never try to open or repair any components of the side cur-
tain air bag system. This
should only be done by an
authorized Kia dealer.
Failure to follow the above men-
tioned instructions can result in
severe injury or death to the
vehicle occupants in an acci-
dent.

Installing a child restraint on a
front passenger seat is
extremely dangerous and
should never be done.Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger seat.
If the air bag deploys, it would impact
the rear-facing child restraint, caus-
ing severe or fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraint in the front passen-
ger’ s seat either. If the front passen-
ger air bag inflates, it would cause
serious or fatal injuries to the improp-
erly positioned or improperly
restrained child.
WARNING
 Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint
on a seat protected by an air
bag in front of it!
 Never put child restraint in the front passenger’s seat. If the
front passenger air bag
inflates, it would cause seri-
ous or fatal injuries.
 When children are seated in the rear outboard seats in
which curtain air bags are
equipped, be sure to put the
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 curtain air bag (if
equipped) could cause severe
injury or death due to the
expansion impact.
WARNING
When the air bags deploy, the
air bag related parts in steering
wheel and/or instrument panel
and/or in both sides of the roof
rails above the front and rear
doors are very hot. To prevent
injury, do not touch the air bag
storage areas internal compo-
nents immediately after an air
bag has inflated.
