Introduction
Gasoline engine
Unleaded
For Europe
For the optimal vehicle performance,
we recommend you use unleaded
gasoline an octane rating of RON(Research Octane Number) 95 / AKI
(Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher. (Do
not use methanol blended fuels.)
You may use unleaded gasoline with
an octane rating of RON 91~94 / AKI
87~90 but it may result in slight per-
formance reduction of the vehicle.
Except Europe
Your new Kia vehicle is designed to
use only unleaded fuel having an
Octane Rating of RON (ResearchOctane Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-
Knock Index) 87 or higher. (Do not
use methanol blended fuels.)
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini-
mize exhaust emissions and spark
plug fouling.
Gasoline containing alcohol andmethanol
Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and
ethanol (also known as grain alcohol),and gasoline or gasohol containing
methanol (also known as wood alco-
hol) are being marketed along with or
instead of leaded gasoline. Do not use gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol, and do not use
gasoline or gasohol containing any
methanol. Either of these fuels may
cause drivability problems and dam-age to the fuel system, engine controlsystem and emission control system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any
kind if drivability problems occur.
Vehicle damage or drivability prob-
lems may not be covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty if they resultfrom the use of:
1. Gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol.
2. Gasoline or gasohol containing methanol.
3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
• Do not "top off" after the noz- zle automatically shuts off when refueling.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the eventof an accident.
CAUTION
NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The
use of leaded fuel is detrimentalto the catalytic converter and will damage the engine controlsystem’s oxygen sensor andaffect emission control.
Never add any fuel system clean-ing agents to the fuel tank other than what has been specified.(Consult an authorized Kia deal-er for details.)

Electronic active headrest
The electronic active headrest is
designed to trigger the headrest for-
ward and upward when impact sensor
detects a rear impact. This helps to
prevent the driver's and front passen-
ger’s heads from moving backward
and thus helps minimize neck injuries. Rear seat adjustment
The rear seat can be adjusted by
using the control switches located on
the door.
WARNING
If you don't install the headrest
securely, the active headrest
may not operate normally. When
reinstalling the headrest, install
it securely as procedures.
OBH038069
WARNING
Do not operate the vehicle with
the headrests removed as
severe injury to the occupants
may occur in the event of an
accident. Headrests may pro-
vide protection against neck
injuries when properly adjusted.
WARNING
Make sure the headrest locks in position after adjusting it to
properly protect the occupants.
CAUTION
The active headrest is a safety device to reduce injuries from arear impact. Do not hit or pull the headrest intentionally.
WARNING
The power seat is operable with
the engine start/stop button in
OFF.
Therefore, children should never
be left unattended in the vehicle.

Safety features of your vehicle
WARNING
No modifications or additions should be made by the user
which will either prevent the
seat belt adjusting devices
from operating 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 dangerous and you may
not be protected by the seat
belt properly.
Do not unfasten the seat belt and do not fasten and unfas-
ten the seat belt repeatedly
while driving. This could
result in loss of control, andan accident causing death,
serious injury, or property
damage.
(Continued)(Continued)
When fastening the seat belt,make sure that the seat belt
does 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.(Continued)
Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the webbing
with polishes, oils and chemi-
cals, and particularly battery
acid. Cleaning may safely becarried out using mild soap and
water. The belt should bereplaced if webbing becomes
frayed, contaminated or dam-
aged. It is essential to replace
the entire assembly after it has
been worn in a severe impact
even if damage to the assembly
is not obvious. Belts should not
be worn with straps twisted.
Each belt assembly must only
be used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around
a child being carried on theoccupant's lap.

Safety features of your vehicle
Larger children
Children who are too large for child
restraint systems should always
occupy the rear seat and use the
available lap/shoulder belts. The lap
portion should be fastened and
snugged on the hips and as low as
possible. Check periodically if belt
fits. A child's squirming could put the
belt out of position. Children are given
the most safety in the event of an
accident when they are restrained by
a proper restraint system in the rear
seat. If a larger child (over age 12)
must be seated in the front seat, the
child should be securely restrained
by the available lap/shoulder belt andthe seat should be placed in the rear-
most position. Children age 12 and
under should be restrained securely
in the rear seat. NEVER place a childage 12 and under in the front seat.
NEVER place a rear facing child seat
in the front seat of a vehicle.If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child’s neck or face, tryplacing the child closer to the center of
the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck they need to
be returned to a child restraint system.
Restraint of pregnant women
Pregnant women should wear
lap/shoulder belt assemblies when-
ever possible according to specific
recommendations by their doctors.
The lap portion of the belt should be
worn AS SNUGLY AND LOW AS
POSSIBLE on the hips, not a crossthe abdomen.
WARNING
- Shoulder
belts on small children
Never allow a shoulder belt to be in contact with a child’s
neck or face while the vehicleis in motion.
If seat belts are not properly worn and adjusted on chil-
dren, there is a risk of death or
serious injury.
WARNING - Pregnant
women
Pregnant women must never
place the lap portion of the
safety belt over the area of the
abdomen where the fetus is
located or above the abdomenwhere the belt could crush the
fetus during an impact.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Children riding in the car should sit in
the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in therear seats than in the front seat.
Larger children not in a child restraintshould use one of the seat belts pro-vided.
You should be aware of the specific
requirements in your country. Child
and/or infant safety seats must be
properly placed and installed in the
rear seat. You must use a commer-
cially available child restraint systemthat meets the requirements of the
Safety Standards of your country.
Child restraint systems are designed
to be secured in vehicle seats by lap
belts or the lap belt portion of a
lap/shoulder belt, or by a tether
anchor and/or ISOFIX anchors. Children could be injured or killed in
a crash if their restraints are not
properly secured. For small children
and babies, a child seat or infant seat
must be used. Before buying a par-
ticular child restraint system, make
sure it fits your car seat and seat
belts, and fits your child. Follow all
the instructions provided by the man-
ufacturer when installing the child
restraint system.
WARNING
A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat.
Never install a child or infant
seat on the front passenger's
seat. Should an accidentoccur and cause the passen-
ger-side air bag to deploy, it
could severely injure or kill an
infant or child seated in an
infant or child seat. Thus only
use a child restraint in the
rear seat of your vehicle.
A seat belt or child restraint system can become very hot
if it is left in a closed vehicle
on a sunny day, even if theoutside temperature does not
feel hot. Be sure to check the
seat cover and buckles before
placing a child there.

(Continued)
When the child restraint sys-tem is not in use, store it in
the luggage area or fasten itwith a seat belt so that it will
not be thrown forward in the
case of a sudden stop or anaccident.
Children may be seriously injured or killed by an inflating
air bag. All children, even
those too large for child
restraints, must ride in therear seat.WARNING
To reduce the chance of serious or fatal injuries:
Children of all ages are safer when restrained in the rear
seat. A child riding in the front
passenger seat can be force-
fully struck by an inflating air
bag resulting in serious orfatal injuries.
Always follow the child restraint system manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation
and use of the child restraint.
Always make sure the child seat is secured properly in the
vehicle and your child is
securely restrained in the
child seat.
(Continued)(Continued)
Never hold a child in yourarms or lap when riding in a
vehicle. The violent forces cre-ated during a crash will tear
the child from your arms and
throw the child against the
vehicle’s interior.
Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a
crash, the belt could press
deep into the child causingserious internal injuries.
Never leave children unat- tended in a vehicle – not even
for a short time. The car can
heat up very quickly, resulting
in serious injuries to children
inside. Even very young chil-
dren may inadvertently cause
the vehicle to move, entangle
themselves in the windows, or
lock themselves or others
inside the vehicle.

Using a child restraint system
For small children and babies, the
use of a child seat or infant seat isrequired.
WARNING
Do not operate the rear power seat (if equipped) while the
child seat is installed.
(Continued)
Never allow two children, or any two persons, to use the same seat belt.
Children often squirm and reposition themselves improp-
erly. Never let a child ride withthe shoulder belt under their
arm or behind their back.
Always properly position and
secure children in the rearseat.
Never allow a child to stand- up or kneel on the seat or floor
of a moving vehicle. During a
collision or sudden stop, the
child can be violently thrown
against the vehicle’s interior,
resulting in serious injury.
Never use an infant carrier or a child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback, it may not
provide adequate security inan accident.
(Continued)(Continued)
Seat belts can become veryhot, especially when the vehi-
cle is parked in direct sun-
light. Always check seat belt
buckles before fastening them
over a child.
After an accident, we recom- mend that the system be
checked by an authorized Kia
dealer.
If there is not enough space to place the child restraint sys-tem because of the driver's
seat, install the child restraintsystem in the rear right seat.
