Safety features of your vehicle
Side air bag (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a side air bag in each front seat.(Continued)
Even though your vehicle isequipped with the passenger's
front air bag ON/OFF switch,
do not install a child restraint
system in the front passen-
ger's seat. A child restraint
system must never be placed
in the front seat. Children who
are too large for child restraint
systems should always occu-
py the rear seat and use the
available lap/shoulder belts.
Children are afforded the most
safety in the event of an acci-
dent when they are restrained
by a proper restraint system inthe rear seat.
As soon as the child seat is no longer needed on the front
passenger's seat, reactivate
the front passenger's air bag.WARNING - No attaching objects
No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular phone holder, cup
holder, perfume or stickers)
should be placed over or near
the air bag modules on the
steering wheel, instrument
panel, windscreen glass, and
the front passenger's panel
above the glove box. Suchobjects could cause harm if the
vehicle is in a crash severe
enough to cause the air bags to
deploy. Do not place any objects
over the air bag or between the
air bag and yourself.

of following occur:
 The ignition key is in ignition switch.
 You exceed the operating distance limit (about 10 m [30 feet]).
 The battery in the transmitter is weak.
 Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
 The weather is extremely cold.
 The transmitter is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio station
or an airport which can interfere
with normal operation of the
transmitter.
When the transmitter does not work
correctly, open and close the door

problem with the transmitter, we
recommend that you contact an
authorised Kia dealer. (Continued)(Continued)
 If the transmitter is in close prox-
imity to your cell phone or smart
phone, the signal from the trans-
mitter could be blocked by normal
operation of your cell phone or
smart phone. This is especially
important when the phone is
active such as making call, receiv-
ing calls, text messaging, and/or
sending/ receiving emails. Avoid
placing the transmitter and your
cell phone or smart phone in the
same pants or jacket pocket and
maintain adequate distance
between the two devices. CAUTION

When using an approvedportable fuel container, be sure to place the container on
the ground prior to refuelling.
Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite
fuel vapours causing a fire.Once refuelling has begun,
contact with the vehicleshould be maintained until the
filling is complete.
Use only portable plastic fuel
containers designed to carry
and store petrol.
Do not use mobile phones whilst refuelling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from mobile phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapours
causing a fire.
(Continued)(Continued)
When refuelling, always shutthe engine off. Sparks produced
by electrical components relat-ed to the engine can ignite fuel
vapours causing a fire. Once
refuelling is complete, check tomake sure the filler cap and
filler door are securely closed,
before starting the engine.
DO NOT use matches or a lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle whilst at a gas station
especially during refuelling.
Automotive fuel is highly
flammable and can, when
ignited, result in fire.
If a fire breaks out during refu- elling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gasstation and then contact the
local fire department. Follow
any safety instructions they
provide.CAUTION
Make sure to refuel your vehi-
cle according to the "Fuelrequirements" suggested in chapter 1.
If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, please make surethat you use parts designed forreplacement in your vehicle. An incorrect fuel filler cap canresult in a serious malfunctionof the fuel system or emission control system. For moredetailed information, we rec-ommend that you contact an authorised Kia dealer.
Do not spill fuel on the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Anytype of fuel spilled on paintedsurfaces may damage the paint.
After refuelling, make sure the fuel cap is installed securelyto prevent fuel spillage in theevent of an accident.
