3. Insert the tongue plate (➀) into the
open end of the buckle (
➁) until an
audible “click” is heard, indicating the
belt is locked in the buckle.4. Position the lap portion (
➀) of the belt
across your lap as LOW ON THE HIPS
as possible to reduce the risk of sliding
under it during an accident. Adjust the
belt to a SNUG FIT by pulling up on
the shoulder portion (
➁) of the safety
belt. The belt retractor is designed to
take up excess webbing automatically
and to maintain tension on the belt. For
your safety, do not put any excess
slack into the safety belt at any loca-
tion.5. Adjust the shoulder anchor position to
your size. To raise the anchor position,
push the anchor up. To lower the
anchor position, press the button and
slide the anchor down. After adjust-
ment, make sure the anchor is locked
in position.
If the height of the adjusting seat belt is
too near your neck, you will not be getting
the most effective protection. The shoul-
der portion should be adjusted so that it
lies across your chest and midway over
your shoulder nearest the door and not
your neck.

Air bag warning light
The purpose of air bag warning light in
your instrument panel is to alert you of a
potential problem with your air bag -
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).
When the ignition switch is turned ON,
the indicator light should blink or illumi-
nate for approximately 6 seconds, then
go off.
Have the system checked if:
• The light does not turn on briefly when
you turn the ignition ON.
• The light stays on after the engine
starts.
• The light comes on while the vehicle is
in motion.
Air 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.
WARNING
• Never put child restraint in the
front passenger seat. If the front
passenger air bag inflates, it may
cause severe or fatal injuries.
• When children are seated in the
rear outboard seats in which cur-
tain air bags are equipped, be
sure to put the child restraint sys-
tem 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 could
cause severe injury or death due
to the expansion impact.
AIR
BAG
CAUTION
Do not modify any part of the air
bag system. Modification could
make the air bag system ineffective
or could cause unnecessary
deployment.

Rolling code programming
To train a garage door opener (or other
rolling code equipped devices) with the
rolling code feature, follow these instruc-
tions after completing the “Programming”
portion of this text. (A second person
may make the following training proce-
dures quicker & easier.)
4. Locate the “learn” or “smart” button on
the device’s motor head unit. Exact
location and color of the button may
vary by product brand. If there is diffi-
culty locating the “learn” or “smart” but-
ton, reference the device’s owner’s
manual or contact HomeLink at 1-800-
355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com.

“smart” button on the device’s motor
head unit. You have 30 seconds to
complete step number 6.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press
and release the programmed
HomeLink button up to three times.
The rolling code equipped device

signal and activate when the
HomeLink button is pressed. The
remaining two buttons may now be
programmed if this has not previously
been done. Refer to the
“Programming” portion of this text.
Operating HomeLink
To operate, simply press the pro-
grammed HomeLink button. Activation

lock, estate gate, or home or office light-
ing). For convenience, the hand-held
transmitter of the device may also be
used at any time. The HomeLink
Wireless Controls System (once pro-
grammed) or the original hand-held
transmitter may be used to activate the
device (e.g. garage door, entry door lock,
etc.). In the event that there are still pro-
gramming difficulties, contact HomeLink
at 1-800-355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com.

buttons simultaneously, until the indi-
cator light begins to flash (approxi-
mately 20 seconds). Release both but-
tons. Do not hold for longer than 30
seconds.

mode and can be programmed at any
time.
