The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to oper-
ate. Each door has a power window
switch that controls the door’s win-
dow. However, the driver has a power
window lock switch which can block
the operation of passenger windows.
The power windows can be operated
for approximately 30 seconds after
the ignition key is removed or turned
to the ACC or LOCK position.
However, if the front doors are
opened, the power windows cannot
be operated even within the 30 sec-
onds after the ignition key removal.
While driving, if you notice buffeting
and pulsation (wind shock) with
either side window open, you should
open the opposite window slightly to
reduce the condition.

The driver’s door has a master power
window switch that controls all the
windows in the vehicle.
To open or close a window, press
down or pull up the front portion of
the corresponding switch to the first
detent position (5).
Auto down window (if equipped)
(Driver’s window)
Depressing the power window switch
momentarily to the second detent
position (6) completely lowers the
driver’s window even when the
switch is released. To stop the win-
dow at the desired position while the
window is in operation, pull up the
switch momentarily to the opposite
direction of the window movement.
If the power window is not operated
correctly, the automatic power win-
dow system must be reset as follows:

turned to the “ON” position,
then the light should go off.
• If the pre-tensioner seat belt is
not working properly, this
warning light will illuminate

WARNING- Air bags &
safety belts
• Even in vehicles with air bags,
you and your passengers
must always wear the safety
belts provided in order to min-
imize the risk and severity of
injury in the event of a colli-
sion or rollover.
•Always wear your safety belt.
It can help keep you away
from the air bags during heavy
braking just before a collision.
It may also reduce the risk of
occupant ejection.
• If occupants are not wearing
safety belts or correctly seat-
ed, they cannot be protected,
and thus face serious injury or
death.
(Continued)(Continued)
• Driver’s and front passenger’s
air bag are designed to inflate
only in certain frontal colli-
sions, and side and curtain air
bags (if equipped) are
designed to inflate in certain
side impacts. Frontal air bag
will generally not provide pro-
tection in side impacts (vehi-
cles not equipped with side
and curtain air bags) or rear
impacts, rollovers,less severe
frontal collisions. They will not
provide protection from later
impacts in a multi-impact col-
lision.
(Continued)(Continued)
• If your vehicle has been sub-
jected to flood conditions (e.g.
soaked carpeting/standing
water on the floor of the vehi-
cle, 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 discon-
necting the battery.
Disregarding this precaution
may cause air bag deploy-
ment, which could result in
serious personal injury or
death. If your vehicle is sub-
jected to flooded conditions,
before starting the vehicle,
have the vehicle towed to an
authorized Kia dealer for
inspection and necessary
repairs.
