(Continued)
If a fire breaks out during refuel-
ing, leave the vicinity of the vehi-
cle, and immediately contact the
manager of the gas station and
then contact the local fire depart-
ment or 911. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.
CAUTION
Make sure to refuel with unleaded fuel only.
Check to make sure the fuel filler cap is securely closed after refu-eling. A loose fuel filler cap may cause the "Check Engine"(Malfunction Indicator) light in theinstrument panel to illuminate unnecessarily.
If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, use only a genuineKia cap or the equivalent speci- fied for your vehicle. An incorrectfuel filler cap can result in a seri-ous malfunction of the fuel sys-tem or emission control system.
Do not spill fuel on the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Any typeof fuel spilled on painted surfacesmay damage the paint.
If the fuel filler lid will not open in cold weather because the areaaround it is frozen, push or lightly tap the lid.

the ignition OFF.
Therefore, children should never be
left unattended in the car.

Main components of occupant classi-fication system Detection devices located under the front passenger seat frame.
Electronic system to determine whether passenger air bag systems
(both front and side) should be activat-
ed or deactivated.
A indicator light ocated on the instru- ment panel which illuminates the words
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” passen-
ger air bag system is deactivated.
The instrument panel air bag indicator light is interconnected with the occu-
pant classification system. If there is no passenger in the front pas-
senger seat or if the passenger in the
front passenger seat is very light, (such
as a child), the front PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF
indicator may illuminate.
When this indicator is ON, the front pas-
senger’s air bag will not operate.
If there is no passenger in the front pas-
senger's seat, the PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator comes on, and the
system shuts off not only the front pas-
senger's front air bag but also the front
passenger’s side air bag. Always be sure that you and all vehicle
occupants are seated and restrained
properly (sitting upright with the seat in
an upright position, centered on the seat
cushion, with the person's legs comfort-
ably extended, feet on the floor, and
wearing the safety belt properly) for the
most effective protection by the air bag
and the safety belt.
The OCS may not function properly if
the passenger takes actions which can
defeat the detection system. These
include:
(1) Failing to sit in an upright position.
(2) Leaning against the door or center console.
(3) Sitting towards the sides or the front of the seat.
(4) Putting legs on the dashboard or rest- ing them on other locations which
reduce the passenger weight on the
front seat.
(5) Improperly wearing the safety belt.
(6) Reclining the seat back.

WARNING
Even though your vehicle isequipped with the occupant clas-
sification system, do not install a
child restraint system in the front
passenger seat. The child could
be severely injured or killed if the
air bag deploys. Children are
afforded the most protection in
the event of an accident when
they are restrained by the proper
restraint system in the rear seat.
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator is illuminated
when the front passenger's seat
is occupied by a person of adult
size who is seated properly, or if
the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator" is not illuminated when
the front passenger's seat is
unoccupied or occupied by a very
small person, the occupant clas-
sification system is not working
properly. Have your vehicle imme-
diately inspected by your Kia
dealer if the occupant classifica-
tion system is not working prop-
erly.
(Continued)
(Continued)
If a very low weight adult is seat-ed in the front passenger seat, the
occupant classification system
may or may not turn off the right
front passenger air bag, depend-
ing upon the person's seating
position and body type. Everyone
in your vehicle should wear a
safety belt properly -- whether or
not there is an air bag for that per-
son.
If the front seat passenger changes their seating position
(for example, by not sitting
upright, by sitting on the edge of
the seat, or by otherwise being
out of position), the "PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF" indicator may
be turned on, and the passenger
air bag may not deploy in a colli-
sion. Always be sure to sit prop-
erly in the front passenger seat
and wear the safety belt properly
and do not do any of the follow-
ing.
(Continued)
CAUTION
If the occupant classification sys-tem is not working properly, the airbag warning light on the instrumentpanel will illuminate because the passenger’s air bag is connectedwith the occupant classificationsystem. If there is a malfunction of the occupant classification system,the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"indicator will not illuminate and thefront passenger's air bag will deploy in either a side or frontal crasheseven if there is child or no occupant in the front passenger's seat.
Have an authorized Kia dealerinspect the occupant classificationsystem with the SRS air bag systemas soon as possible if any of follow-ing occur;
The SRS air bag warning light does not illuminate when the igni-tion key is turned to "ON" posi-tion.
The SRS air bag warning light remains illuminated after illumi-nating or blinking for approxi-mately 6 seconds.
The SRS air bag warning light illu- minates while the vehicle is beingdriven.

Air bag system components The main components of your SRS are:
To indicate that your vehicle is
equipped with air bags, the corre-
sponding air bag covers are marked
with “SRS AIR BAG”.
- Driver’s air bag
- Passenger’s air bag
- Side air bag
- Curtain air bag
A diagnostic system that continually monitors the system operation.
An indicator light to warn you of a pos- sible problem with the system. Emergency power backup in case your
car’s electrical system is disconnected
in a crash.
The SRS uses a collection of sensors to
gather information about the driver’s seat
position, the driver’s and front passenger’s
safety belt usage and impact severity.
The driver’s seat position sensor, which
is installed on the seat track, determine if
the seat is fore or aft of a reference posi-
tion. Similarly, the safety belt usage sen-
sors determine if the driver and front pas-
senger’s safety belts are fastened. These
sensors provide the ability to control the
SRS deployment based on how close the
driver’s seat is to the steering wheel,
whether or not the safety belts are fas-
tened, and the severity of the impact.
(Continued)
If the driver brakes the vehicle heavily prior to an impact, unbelt-
ed occupants will be thrown for-
ward. If the front passenger is not
wearing the safety belts, they will
be directly in front of the storage
compartment when deployment
occurs. In that situation, serious
injury or death is possible.
Never allow front passenger to put their hands, feet or face on or
close to the instrument panel. In
the event of air bag deployment,
such a mispositioned occupant
would be likely to suffer severe
injury or death.
Never allow children, pregnant women or weak persons to sit in
the front passenger seat. Do not
put child restraint system on the
front passenger's seat either.
They may be seriously injured by
the air bag inflation when air bag
deploys.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not put objects or stickers onthe instrument panel. Do not
apply any accessory to the front
windshield. Do not install after-
market mirrors or accessories on
the factory-installed rearview mir-
ror. Any of these could interfere
with the deployment of the air bag
or could hit your body at high
speed and cause severe bodily
injury and even death.
