•Iý components oý the air baþ sys‐tem must be discarded, or iý thevehicle must be scrapped, certainsaýety precautions must be ob‐served. An authorized Kia dealerknows these precautions and canþive you the necessary inýorma‐tion. Failure to ýollow these pre‐cautions and procedures could in‐crease the risk oý personal injury.
•Iý your car was ýlooded and hassoaked carpetinþ or water onýloorinþ, you shouldn't try to startthe enþine; in this case, have yourvehicle inspected by a proýessionalworkshop. Kia recommends tocontact an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Additional saýety precautions
•Never let passenþers ride in the carþoarea or on top oý a ýolded-down backseat. All occupants should sit upriþht,
ýully back in their seats with their
seat belts on and their ýeet on the
ýloor. •
çassenþers should not move out oýor chanþe seats while the vehicle ismovinþ.
A passenþer who is not
wearinþ a seat belt durinþ a crash or
emerþency stop can be thrown
aþainst the inside oý the vehicle,
aþainst other occupants, or out oý
the vehicle.
•
Each seat belt is desiþned to restrainone occupant. Iý more than one per‐
son uses the same seat belt, they
could be seriously injured or killed in a
collision.
•
Do not use any accessories on seatbelts. Devices claiminþ to improve oc‐
cupant comýort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provi‐
ded by the seat belt and increase the
chance oý serious injury in a crash.
•
çassenþers should not place hard orsharp objects between themselvesand the air baþs. Carryinþ hard or
sharp objects on your lap or in your
mouth can result in injuries iý an air
baþ inýlates. •
Keep occupants away ýrom the airbaþ covers.
All occupants should sit
upriþht, ýully back in their seats with
their seat belts on and their ýeet on
the ýloor. Iý occupants are too close to the air baþ covers, they could be
injured iý the air baþs inýlate.
•
Do not attach or place objects on ornear the air baþ covers. Any object
attached to or placed on the ýront or
side air baþ covers could interýere with the proper operation oý the air
baþs.
•
Do not modiýy the ýront seats. Modi‐
ýication oý the ýront seats could in‐
terýere with the operation oý the
supplemental restraint system sens‐ inþ components or side air baþs.
•
Do not place items under the ýrontseats. çlacinþ items under the ýront
seats could interýere with the opera‐
tion oý the supplemental restraint system sensinþ components and wir‐
inþ harnesses.
•
Never hold an inýant or child on yourlap. The inýant or child could be seri‐
ously injured or killed in the event oý
a crash. All inýants and children
should be properly restrained in ap‐
propriate child saýety seats or seat
