How does the air bag system
operate
Air bags are activated (able toinflate if necessary) only when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON
or START position.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of a serious frontal collision
or side collision in order to help
protect the occupants from serious
physical injury.
Also, the side and/or curtain air
bags inflate instantly in the event of
a rollover in order to help protect
the occupants from serious physi-
cal 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
collision and its direction. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce an electronic
deployment/ inflation signal. Air bag deployment depends on a
number of factors including vehicle
speed, angles of impact and the
density and stiffness of the vehi-
cles or objects which your vehicle
hits in the collision. The determin-
ing 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 com-
partments after the collision.
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 conse-
quence of extremely short time in
which a collision occurs and the
need to inflate the air bag between
the occupant and the vehicle struc-
tures 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 bro-
ken bones because 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
steering wheel or passenger air
bag can cause fatal injuries,
especially if the occupant is
positioned excessively close to
the steering wheel or passenger
air bag.

Features of your vehicle
To activate the immobilizer sys-tem:
Turn the ignition key to the OFF posi-
tion. The immobilizer system acti-
vates automatically. Without a valid
ignition key for your vehicle, the
engine will not start.
To deactivate the immobilizersystem:
Insert the ignition key into the key
cylinder and turn it to the ON posi-
tion.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
When starting the engine, do not use
the key with other immobilizer keys
around. Otherwise the engine may
not start or may stop soon after it
starts. Keep each key separately in
order to avoid a starting malfunc-
tion.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If you need additional keys or lose
your keys, consult an authorized Kia
dealer.
CAUTION
The transponder in your ignition
key is an important part of theimmobilizer system. It isdesigned to give years of trou-ble-free service, however youshould avoid exposure to mois-ture, static electricity and roughhandling. Immobilizer systemmalfunction could occur.
CAUTION
Do not change, alter or adjust theimmobilizer system because itcould cause the immobilizer sys-tem to malfunction and shouldonly be serviced by an author-ized Kia dealer.
Malfunctions caused by improp-er alterations, adjustments ormodifications to the immobilizersystem are not covered by yourvehicle manufacturer warranty.
CAUTION
Do not put metal accessories
near the ignition switch.
Metal accessories may interruptthe transponder signal and mayprevent the engine from beingstarted.
WARNING
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
or your key number anywhere in
the vehicle. The ignition key and
key number are unique to your
vehicle, and therefore, should
be kept confidential.

Retain the original transmitter for
future programming procedures (i.e.,
new vehicle purchase). It is also sug-
gested that upon the sale of the vehi-
cle, the programmed HomeLink
®but-
tons be erased for security purposes
(follow step 1 in the “Programming”
portion of this text).
Programming
Your vehicle may require the ignition
switch to be turned to the ACC posi-
tion for programming and/or opera-
tion of HomeLink
®. It is also recom-
mended that a new battery be
replaced in the hand-held transmitter
of the device being programmed to
HomeLink
®for quicker training and
accurate transmission of the radio-
frequency.
Follow these steps to train your
HomeLink
®mirror: 1. When programming the buttons
for the first time, press and hold
the left and center buttons ( ,
) simultaneously until the indicator
light begins to flash after approxi-
mately 20 seconds. (This proce-
dure erases the factory-set default
codes. Do not perform this step to
program additional hand-held
transmitters.)
WARNING
When programming theHomeLink®Wireless Control
System, you may be operating
a garage door or gate opera-
tor. Make sure that people and
objects are out of the way of
the moving door or gate to
prevent potential harm or
damage.
Do not use HomeLink® with any garage door opener that
lacks the safety stop and
reverse feature as required by
federal safety standards. (This
includes any garage door
opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982.) A garage
door opener which cannot
detect an object, signaling the
door to stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a
garage door opener without
these features increases risk
of serious injury or death. For
more information, call 1-800-
355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink
®.com.

Rolling code programming
To train a garage door opener (or
other rolling code equipped devices)
with the rolling code feature, follow
these instructions after completing
the “Programming” portion of this
text. (A second person may make the
following training procedures quicker
& easier.)
4.Locate the “learn” or “smart” buttonon the device’s motor head unit.
Exact location and color of the but-
ton may vary by product brand. If
there is difficulty locating the
“learn” or “smart” button, reference
the device’s owner’s manual or
contact HomeLink
®at 1-800-355-
3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink
®.com.
5.Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button on the device’s
motor head unit. You have 30 sec-
onds 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 should now recognize the
HomeLink
®signal and activate
when the HomeLink®button is
pressed. The remaining two but-
tons 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 will now occur for the
trained product (garage door, securi-
ty system, entry door lock, estate
gate, or home or office lighting). For
convenience, the hand-held trans-
mitter of the device may also be used
at any time. The HomeLink
®Wireless
Controls System (once programmed)
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
programming difficulties, contact
HomeLink
®at 1-800-355-3515 or on
the internet at www.homelink®.com.
