(if equipped)
Depressing or pulling up the power win-
dow switch momentarily to the second
detent position (6) completely lowers or
lifts the window even when the switch is
released. To stop the window at the
desired position while the window is in
operation, pull up or depress the switch
momentarily to the opposite direction of
the window movement.
If the battery has been discharged or dis-
connected when the window operating,
the automatic power window system
must be reset as follows:
1. Turn the ignition key to ON position.
2. Close each window and continue
pulling up on each power window
switch for at least 1 second after the
window is completely closed.Automatic window reversal (When win-
dow is closed by the automatic power
window)
If the upward movement of the window is
blocked by an object or part of the body,
the window will detect the resistance and
will stop upward movement. The window
will then lower approximately 20~30 cm
(8~12 inches) to allow the object to be
cleared.

WARNING
The automatic window reversal
feature (window lowers 20~30 cm
(8~12 inches) cm when a resist-
ance is detected) will only oper-
ate when the automatic power
window operation feature is used.
Automatic window reversal will
not operate if the window is
raised using the first detent posi-
tion (5) on the power window
switch or the window is raised
using the second detent position
(6) on the switch within 2 sec-
onds after the window is lowered
by the automatic window reversal
feature. Always double check to
make sure all faces, arms, hands
and other obstructions are safely
out of the way of before operating
the power window.
If an object less than 4 mm
(0.15 inch) in diameter is caught
between the window glass and
the upper window channel, the
automatic reversal may not detect
the resistance and will not oper-
ate. Therefore, always check for
any obstructions before raising
any window.

Knowing your vehicle
Curtain air bag (if equipped)Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and the
rear outboard seat occupants in certain
side impact collisions.
The curtain air bag deployment occurs
only on the side of the vehicle affected
by the impact. The side air bags (side and/or curtain
air bags) are not designed to deploy in
collisions from the front or rear of the
vehicle or in most rollover situations.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only in certain side-impact colli-
sions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and impact.
WARNING
In order for side air bags (side
and curtain air bags) to provide
its best protection, both front seat
occupants and both outboard
rear occupants should sit in an
upright position with the seat
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 possi-
ble, and secure the child restraint
system in a locked position.
(Continued)
(Continued)
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 passen-
gers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side air
bags.
Never try to open or repair any
components of the side curtain
air bag system. This should only
be done by an authorized Kia
dealer.
If a small child is seated on the
rear outboard seat cushion, it is
probable that they will below the
deployment level of the side cur-
tain air bag and thus not protect-
ed by that air bag.
Failure to follow the above men-
tioned instructions can result in
injury or death to the vehicle occu-
pants in an accident.

Knowing your vehicle66 3Noise and smokeWhen the air bags inflate, they make a
loud noise and they leave smoke and
powder in the air inside of the vehicle.
This is normal. After the air bag inflates,
you may feel substantial discomfort in
breathing due to the contact of your
chest to both the safety belt and the air
bag, as well as from breathing the smoke
and powder.We strongly urge you to
open your doors and/or windows as
soon as possible after impact in order
to reduce discomfort and prevent pro-
longed exposure to the smoke and
powder.
Though the smoke and powder are non-
toxic, it may cause irritation to the skin
(eyes, nose and throat etc.). Wash and
rinse with cold water immediately and
consult a doctor if symptoms persist.
Installing a child restraint on a
front passenger seat is extremely
dangerous and should never be
done.Neverplace a rear-facing child restraint
in the front passenger’s seat. If the air
bag deploys, it would impact the rear-fac-
ing child restraint, causing severe or fatal
injuries.
In addition, do not place front-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s seat
either. If the front passenger air bag
inflates, it may cause severe or fatal
injuries to the child.
WARNING
- Hot air bag
parts
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 area’s internal
components immediately after an
air bag has inflated.
