Seat belt restraint system
WARNING
•For maximum restraint systemprotection, the seat belts must al‐ways be used whenever the car ismoving.
•Seat belts are most effective whenseatbacks are in the upright posi‐tion.
•Children age 12 and younger mustalways be properly restrained inthe rear seat. Never allow childrento ride in the front passenger seat.If a child over 12 must be seated inthe front seat, he/she must beproperly belted and the seatshould be moved as far back aspossible.
•Never wear the shoulder belt un‐der your arm or behind your back.An improperly positioned shoulderbelt can cause serious injuries in acrash. The shoulder belt should bepositioned midway over yourshoulder across your collarbone.

•Never wear a seat belt over fragileobjects. If there is a sudden stopor impact, the seat belt can dam‐age it.
•Avoid wearing twisted seat belts.A twisted belt can't do its job aswell. In a collision, it could even cutinto you. Be sure the belt webbingis straight and not twisted.
•Be careful not to damage the beltwebbing or hardware. If the beltwebbing or hardware is damaged,replace it.
WARNING
•Seat belts are designed to bearupon the bony structure of thebody, and should be worn lowacross the front of the pelvis orthe pelvis, chest and shoulders, asapplicable; wearing the lap sectionof the belt across the abdominalarea must be avoided.

(Continued)
•Seat belts should be adjusted asfirmly as possible, consistent withcomfort, to provide the protectionfor which they have been de‐signed.
•A slack belt will greatly reduce theprotection afforded to the wearer.Care should be taken to avoid con‐tamination of the webbing withpolishes, oils and chemicals, andparticularly battery acid.
•Cleaning may safely be carried outusing mild soap and water. Thebelt should be replaced if webbingbecomes frayed, contaminated ordamaged. It is essential to replacethe entire assembly after it hasbeen worn in a severe impact evenif damage to the assembly is notobvious. Belts should not be wornwith straps twisted. Each belt as‐sembly must only be used by oneoccupant; it is dangerous to put abelt around a child being carried onthe occupant's lap.

•The SRS can function only whenthe ignition key is in the ON posi‐tion. If the SRS air bag warninglight does not illuminate, or contin‐uously remains on after illuminat‐ing for about 6 seconds when theignition key is turned to the ONposition, or after the engine isstarted, comes on while driving,the SRS is not working properly. Inthis case, have the system inspec‐ted by a professional workshop.Kia recommends to visit an au‐thorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.
•Before you replace a fuse or dis‐connect a battery terminal, turnthe ignition switch to the LOCK po‐sition and remove the ignition key.Never remove or replace the airbag related fuse(s) when the igni‐tion switch is in the ON position.Failure to heed this warning willcause the SRS air bag warninglight to illuminate.
