To fasten your seat belt:
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of
the retractor and insert the metal tab
(1) into the buckle (2). There will be
an audible "click" when the tab locks
into the buckle. The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper length only after the lap
belt portion is adjusted manually so
that it fits snugly around your hips. If
you lean forward in a slow, easy
motion, the belt will extend and let
you move around. If there is a sud-
den stop or impact, however, the belt
will lock into position. It will also lock
if you try to lean forward too quickly.

seat belt from the retractor, firmly
pull the belt out and release it. Then
you will be able to pull the belt out
smoothly.

Pre-tensioner seat belt (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner
seat belts (retractor pretensioner and
EFD (Emergency Fastening Device)).The pre-tensioner seat belts can be
activated, where the frontal collision
is severe enough, together with the
air bags.
When the vehicle stops suddenly, or
if the occupant tries to lean forward
too quickly, the seat belt retractor will
lock into position. In certain frontal collisions, the pre-
tensioner will activate and pull theseat belt into tighter contact against
the occupant's body.
(1) Retractor Pretensioner
The purpose of the retractor pre-tensioner is to make sure that the shoulder belts fit in tightly againstthe occupant's upper body in cer-
tain frontal collisions.
(2) EFD (Emergency Fastening Device)
The purpose of the EFD is tomake sure that the pelvis belts fitin tightly against the occupant's
lower body in certain frontal colli-
sions. (if equipped)
If the system senses excessive ten-
sion on the driver or passenger'sseat belt when the pre-tensioner sys-
tem activates, the load limiter inside
the retractor pre-tensioner willrelease some of the pressure on the
affected seat belt. (if equipped)
✽✽ NOTICE
The pre-tensioner will activate not
only in a frontal collision but also in a
side collision, if the vehicle is equipped
with a side or curtain air bag.

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 installa-
tion and use of the childrestraint system.
Always make sure the child restraint system is secured
properly in the vehicle and your
child is securely restrained inthe Child restraint system.
Never hold a child in your arms 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.
(Continued)(Continued)
Never put a seat belt overyourself 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 vehicle
can heat up very quickly,resulting in serious injuries to
children inside the vehicle.
Even very young children may
inadvertently cause the vehi-
cle to move, entangle them-
selves in the windows, or lock
themselves or others inside
the vehicle.
Never allow two children, or any two persons, to use thesame 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 rear seat.
(Continued)(Continued)
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 restraint system that
"hooks" over a seatback, it
may not provide adequatesecurity in an accident.
Seat belts can become very hot, especially when the vehi-
cle is parked in direct sun-
light. Always check the seat
belt buckles before fastening
them over a child.
After an accident, have the system checked by a profes-
sional workshop. Kia recom-mends to visit an authorised
Kia dealer/service partner.
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.

(listen for a CLICK, check potential
visual indicators on the child restraint
system and cross-check by pulling).
Child restraint systems with universal
approval to ECE-R 44, ECE-R 129 or
relevant regulation need to be fixed
additionally with a top tether strap con-nected to the corresponding top tether
anchorage point in the back rest. The installation and the use of a child
restraint system has to be done
