Lap/shoulder belt
To fasten your seat belt:
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the
retractor and insert the metal tab (1) into
the buckle (2). There will be an audible
"click" when the tab locks into the buckle. The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper length only after the lap belt por-
tion is adjusted manually so that it fits
snugly around your hips. If you lean for-
ward in a slow, easy motion, the belt will
extend and let you move around. If there
is a sudden stop or impact, however, the
belt will lock into position. It will also lock
if you try to lean forward too quickly.

which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from oper-
ating to remove slack, or prevent
the seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack.
When you fasten the seat belt, be careful not to latch the seat belt in
buckles of other seat. It's very dan-
gerous and you may not be pro-
tected by the seat belt properly.
Do not unfasten the seat belt and do not fasten and unfasten the
seat belt repeatedly while driving.This could result in loss of con-
trol, and an accident causing
death, serious injury, or property
damage.

not pass over objects that are
hard or can break easily.
Make sure there is nothing in the buckle. The seat belt may not be
fastened securely.

✽✽
NOTICE
 When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise may be heard
and fine dust, which may appear to be
smoke, may be visible in the passenger
compartment. These are normal oper-
ating conditions and are not hazardous.
 Although it is harmless, the fine dust may cause skin irritation and should
not be breathed for prolonged periods.
Wash all exposed skin areas thoroughly
after an accident in which the pre-ten-
sioner seat belts were activated. ✽
✽
NOTICE
Because the sensor that activates the
SRS air bag is connected with the pre-
tensioner seat belt, the SRS air bag
warning light ( ) on the instrument
panel will illuminate for approximately
6 seconds after the ignition switch has
been turned to the ON position, and
then it should turn off.WARNING
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn cor- rectly and adjusted to the proper
position. Please read and follow
all of the important information
and precautions about your vehi-
cle’s occupant safety features –
including seat belts and air bags –
that are provided in this manual.
2. Be sure you and your passengers always wear seat belts properly.
CAUTION
If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not
working properly, this warning light
will illuminate even if there is nomalfunction of the SRS air bag. Ifthe SRS air bag warning light does not illuminate when the ignition
switch is turned ON, or if it remainsilluminated after illuminating forapproximately 6 seconds, or if itilluminates while the vehicle is
being driven, please have anauthorized Kia dealer inspect thepre-tensioner seat belt and SRS air bag system as soon as possible.
WARNING
Pre-tensioners are designed to operate only one time. After acti-
vation, pre-tensioner seat belts
must be replaced. All seat belts,
of any type, should always be
replaced after they have been
worn during a collision.
The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly mechanisms become
hot during activation. Do not
touch the pre-tensioner seat belt
assemblies for several minutes
after they have been activated.
Do not attempt to inspect or replace the pre-tensioner seat
belts yourself. This must be done
by an authorized Kia dealer.
Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies.
Do not attempt to service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt
system in any manner.

How does the air bag system operate
Air bags are activated (able to inflate ifnecessary) only when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON or STARTposition.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of a serious frontal collision or side colli-sion (if equipped with a side air bag or
curtain air bag) in order to help protect
the occupants from serious physical
injury.
✽✽ NOTICE - Except Middle East and China
Also, the air bags inflate instantly in the
event of a rollover (if equipped with a
side airbag or curtain air bag) in order
to help protect the occupants from seri-
ous physical injury.
There is no single speed at which the air bags will inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a col-
lision and its direction. These two fac-
tors determine whether the sensors
produce an electronic deployment/inflation signal. Air bag deployment depends on a num-
ber of factors including vehicle speed, angles of impact and the density and
stiffness of the vehicles or objects which
your vehicle hits in the collision. The
determining factors are not limited to
those mentioned above.
The front air bags will completely inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to see the
air bags inflate during an accident.
It is much more likely that you will simply see the deflated air bags hanging out of
their storage compartments after the col-lision.
In order to help provide protection in a severe collision, the air bags must inflate
rapidly. The speed of the air bag inflation
is a consequence of extremely short timein which a collision occurs and the need
to inflate the air bag between the occu-
pant and the vehicle structures before
the occupant impacts those structures.
This speed of inflation reduces the risk of
serious or life-threatening injuries in a
severe collision and is thus a necessary
part of the air bag design.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include facial
abrasions, bruises and broken bonesbecause the inflation speed also causes
the air bags to expand with a great deal
of force. There are even circumstances
under which contact with the steer-
ing wheel air bag can cause fatal
injuries, especially if the occupant
is positioned excessively close tothe steering wheel.
WARNING
To avoid severe personal injury or death caused by deploying air
bags in a collision, the driver
should sit as far back from the
steering wheel air bag as possi-
ble (at least 250 mm (10 inches)
away). The front passengers
should always move their seats
as far back as possible and sit
back in their seat.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of a collision, and passen-
gers may be injured by the air bag
expansion force if they are not in
a proper position.
Air bag inflation may cause injuries including facial or bodily
abrasions, injuries from broken
glasses or burns.
