Limp home (override) proce-
dureWhen you turn the ignition key to the
ON position, if the IMMO indicator
remains on continuously after blink-
ing 6 times, your transponder
equipped in the ignition key is out of
order. You cannot start the engine
without the lime home procedure. To
start the engine, you have to input
your password by using the ignition
switch.
The following procedure is how to
input your password of “2345” as an
example.
1. Turn the ignition key to the ON posi-tion. The IMMO indicator ( ) will
blink 6 times and remain on indicat-
ing the beginning of the limp home
procedure.
2. Turn the ignition key to the ACC position. 3. To enter the first digit (in this
example “2”), turn the ignition key
to the ON and ACC position twice.
Perform the same procedure for
the next digits between 3 seconds
and 10 seconds (for example, for
“3”, turn the ignition ON and ACC
3 times).
4. If all of the digits have been input successfully, you have to start the
engine within 10 seconds. If you
attempt to start the engine after 10
seconds, the engine will not start
and you will have to input your
password again.
After performing the limp home pro-
cedure, you have to see an author-
ized Kia dealer immediately to
inspect and repair your ignition key
or immobilizer system.
WARNING
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority
to operate the equipment.
CAUTION
If you cannot start your engine in spite of limp home procedure,have your vehicle towed by anauthorized Kia dealer forinspection and necessaryrepairs.

We strongly recommend that the
driver and all passengers be proper-
ly restrained at all times by using the
safety belts provided with the vehi-
cle. Proper use of the safety belts
decreases the risk of severe injury or
death in accidents or sudden stops.
In most states, and in Canada, the
law requires their use.
All seats have lap/shoulder belts.
Inertial locks in the safety belt retrac-
tors allow all of the lap/shoulder safe-
ty belts to remain unlocked during
normal vehicle operation. This allows
the occupants some freedom of
movement and increased comfort
while using the safety belts. If a force
is applied to the vehicle, such as a
strong stop, a sharp turn, or a colli-
sion, the safety belt retractors will
automatically lock the safety belts. Since the inertial locks do not require
a collision in order to lock up, you
may become aware of the safety
belts locking while braking or going
around sharp corners.
Always use the rear seat position(s)
to install your child restraint(s).
Never install a child restraint system
in the front passenger position, as an
inflating air bag could cause serious
or fatal injury to a child in that posi-
tion.
The rear safety belts use a special
auto-lock feature designed to allow a
child restraint to be used in these
positions without an added locking
clip. They normally lock only under
extreme or emergency conditions
(emergency lock mode). However
they can be adjusted so that they
remain in fixed and locked when a
child restraint system is placed in
these positions. (Use this auto-lock
mode only to secure a child restraint,
never for passengers restrained by
the safety belts.) Page 3-44 gives
instructions on placing the safety belt
in the auto lock mode.
The drivers safety belt can only oper-
ate in the emergency lock mode.

Knowing your vehicle
Installing a child restraint system For safety reasons, we recommend
that the child restraint system be
used in the rear seats.Never place
a rear-facing child restraint in the
front passenger seat, because of
the danger that an inflating pas-
senger side air bag could impact
the rear-facing child restraint and
kill the child.
Since all passenger’s (except dri-
ver’s) safety belts move freely under
normal conditions and only lock
under extreme or emergency condi-
tions (emergency lock mode), you
must manually change these safety
belts to the auto lock mode to secure
a child restraint.✽ ✽ NOTICEThe driver’s safety belt incorporates
the emergency lock mode only.
WARNING
Do not install any child
restraint system in the front
passenger seat. Should an
accident occur and cause the
passenger air bag to deploy, it
could severely injure or kill an
infant or child seated in an
infant or child seat. Therefore,
only use a child restraint sys-
tem in the rear seat of your
vehicle.
If the child restraint seat is not anchored properly, the risk of
a child being seriously injured
or killed in a collision greatly
increases.
WARNING
Before installing the childrestraint system, read the
instructions supplied by the
child restraint system manu-
facturer.
If the seat belt does not oper- ate as described, have the
system checked immediately
by your authorized Kia dealer.
Failure to observe this manual instructions regarding child
restraint system and the
instructions provided with the
child restraint system could
increase the chance and/or
severity of injury in an acci-
dent.

WARNING
- Air bags &
safety belts
Even in vehicles with air bags, you and your passengers
must always wear the safety
belts provided in order to min-
imize the risk and severity of
injury in the event of a colli-
sion or rollover.
Always wear your safety belt. It can help keep you away
from the air bags during heavy
braking just before a collision.
It may also reduce the risk of
occupant ejection.
If occupants are not wearing safety belts or correctly seat-
ed, they cannot be protected,
and thus face serious injury or
death.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Driver’s and front passenger’sair bag are designed to inflate
only in certain frontal colli-
sions, and side and curtain air
bags (if equipped) are
designed to inflate in certain
side impacts. Frontal air bag
will generally not provide pro-
tection in side impacts (vehi-
cles not equipped with side
and curtain air bags) or rear
impacts, rollovers, less severe
frontal collisions. They will not
provide protection from later
impacts in a multi-impact col-
lision.
(Continued)
(Continued)
If your vehicle has been sub-jected to flood conditions (e.g.
soaked carpeting/standing
water on the floor of the vehi-
cle, etc.) or if your vehicle has
become flood damaged in any
way, do not attempt to start
the vehicle or put the key in
the ignition before discon-
necting the battery.
Disregarding this precaution
may cause air bag deploy-
ment, which could result in
serious personal injury or
death. If your vehicle is sub-
jected to flooded conditions,
before starting the vehicle,
have the vehicle towed to an
authorized Kia dealer for
inspection and necessary
repairs.

Side air bag (if equipped)Side air bags are stored in the left
side of the driver’s seat and right side
of the front passenger’s seat.
If air bag inflation conditions are met
(side collision), they will inflate.
Curtain air bag (if equipped)Curtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants
and the rear outboard seat occupants
in certain side impact collisions.

WARNING
Do not use any accessory
seat covers for the vehicle
equipped with side air bags.
Use of seat covers could inter-
fere with side air bag deploy-
ment.
If seat is damaged, have the
vehicle checked and repaired
by an authorized Kia dealer.
Inform them that your vehicle
is equipped with side air bags.
Do not make modifications or additions to the seats as they
may cause the air bag system
to malfunction resulting in
severe personal injury or
death.

Air bag inflation conditionFront air bag
Front air bags (driver’s and front pas-
senger’s air bags) are designed to
inflate when the impact is delivered
to front collision sensors depending
on the intensity, speed or angles of
impact of the front collision - general-
ly from an area a little to the left to a
little to the right of straight ahead.
WARNING
Do not hit or allow any objectsto impact the locations where
air bag or sensors are
installed.
This may cause unexpected
air bag deployment, which
could result in serious per-
sonal injury or death.
If the installation location or angle of the sensors is altered
in any way, the air bags may
deploy when they should not
or they may not deploy when
they should, causing severe
injury or death.
Therefore, do not try to per-
form maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors.
Have the vehicle checked and
repaired by an authorized Kia
dealer.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Problems may arise if the sen-sor installation angles are
changed due to the deforma-
tion of front bumper, body or
B, C pillar where side collision
sensors are installed. Have
the vehicle checked and
repaired by an authorized Kia
dealer.
Your vehicle has been designed to absorb impact
and deploy the air bag(s) in
certain collisions. Installing
aftermarket bumper guards or
replacing a bumper with non-
genuine parts may adversely
affect your vehicles collision
and air bag deployment per-
formance.

Knowing your vehicle
Air bag non-inflation conditions In certain collisions, the vehiclesafety belts are sufficient to protect
the vehicle occupants and the air
bags may not deploy. In some
cases, deploying air bags in low-
speed collisions can cause a sec-
ondary impact to the occupants
(light abrasions, cuts, burns, etc.),
or loss of vehicle control. Frontal air bags are not designed
to inflate in rear collisions, because
occupants are moved backward by
the force of the impact. In this case,
the air bags do not provide proper
protection. Front air bags may not inflate in
side impact collision, because
occupants move to the direction of
the collision, and thus in side
impacts, frontal air bag deployment
does not provide occupant protec-
tion.
However, side or curtain air bags
may inflate depending on the inten-
sity, vehicle speed and angles of
impact.

Emergency trunk safety
release (if equipped)Your vehicle is equipped with an
emergency trunk release cable locat-
ed inside the trunk. The lever glows
in the dark when the trunk lid is
closed. If someone is inadvertently
locked in the trunk, pulling this han-
dle will release the trunk latch mech-
anism and open the trunk.
WARNING
- Exhaust
fumes
If you drive with the trunk lid
open, you will draw dangerous
exhaust fumes into your vehicle
causing serious injury or death
to vehicle occupants. Open
trunk lids can also dangerously
obscure rear view vision.
If you must drive with the trunk
lid open, keep the air vents open
so that additional outside air
comes into the vehicle.
OLD026017
WARNING
No one should be allowed to
occupy the trunk of the vehicle
at any time. If the trunk is par-
tially or totally latched and the
person is unable to get out,
severe injury or death could
occur due to lack of ventilation,
exhaust fumes and rapid heat
build-up, or because of expo-
sure to cold weather conditions.
The trunk is also a highly dan-
gerous location in the event of a
crash because it is not a pro-
tected occupant space but
merely a part of the vehicle’s
crush zone.
