Front and side air bags can
injure occupants improperly
positioned in the front seats.
Move your seat as far back as practical from the front air
bags, while still maintaining
control of the vehicle.
You and your passengers should never sit or lean unnec-
essarily close to the air bags.
Improperly positioned drivers
and passengers can be severe-
ly injured by inflating air bags.
Never lean agai nst the door or
center console – always sit in an upright position.
No objects should be placed over or near the air bag mod- ules on the steering wheel,
instrument panel or the front
passenger's panel above the
glove box, because any suchobject could cause harm if the
vehicle is in a crash severe
enough to cause the air bags
to deploy.
(Continued)(Continued)
Do not tamper with or discon-nect SRS wiring or other com- ponents of the SRS system.
Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental deployment
of the air bags or by rendering
the SRS inoperative.
If the SRS air bag warning light remains illuminated while the
vehicle is being driven, we rec-ommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
Air bags can only be used once – we recommend that
the system be replaced by an
authorized Kia dealer.
The SRS is designed to deploy the front air bags only when an
impact is sufficiently severeand when the impact angle is
less than 30° from the forwardlongitudinal axis of the vehi-
cle. Additionally, the air bags
will only deploy once. Seat
belts must be worn at all times.
(Continued)(Continued)
Front air bags are not intend-ed to deploy in side-impact,
rear-impact or rollover crash-
es. In addition, front air bags
will not deploy in frontal
crashes below the deploy-ment threshold.
A child restraint system must never be placed in the front
seat. The infant or child could
be severely injured or killed
by an air bag deployment incase of an accident.
Children age 12 and under must always be properlyrestrained in the rear seat.
Never allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat. If a
child over 12 must be seated
in the front seat, he or she
must be properly belted and
the seat should be moved as
far back as possible.

drink. If liquid spills, it may get
into the vehicle's electrical/elec-
tronic system and damage electri-
cal/electronic parts.
When cleaning spilled liquids, do not dry the cup holder at high
temperature. This may damage
the cup holder.

If uncovered cups and cans containing any form of liquid
are put into the front/center
seat cup holders and the vehi-
cle brakes heavily, the liquid
may flow into the narrow
openings around cup holders
and console, and soak into
the vehicle's internal electri-
cal system. To avoid subse-quent system malfunction,
always firmly cover any con-tainer holding liquid.

edge of a roadway.
Depress the flasher switch with the
ignition switch in any position. The
