Installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, we recommend that
the child restraint system be used in the
rear seats.
Since all passenger 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.WARNING- Child seat
installation
Before installing the childrestraint system, read the instruc-
tions supplied by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
If the safety belt does not operate as described in this section, have
the system checked immediately
by your authorized Kia dealer.
Failure to observe this manual's instructions regarding child
restraint system and the instruc-
tions provided with the child
restraint system could increase
the chance and/or severity of
injury in an accident.
WARNING
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger
seat, because of the danger that an
inflating passenger side air bag
could impact the rear-facing child
restraint and kill the child.
(Continued)
Never allow a child to stand up orkneel while the vehicle is moving.
Never use an infant carrier or child seat that "hooks" over a
seatback. It will not provide ade-
quate protection in an accident.
Never allow a child to be held while they are in a moving vehi-
cle, as this could result in serious
injury to the child in the event of
an accident or a sudden stop.
Holding a child in a moving vehi-
cle does not provide the child
with any protection during an
accident, even if the person hold-
ing the child is wearing a seat
belt.
After an accident, have an autho- rized KIA dealer check the child
restraint system, seat belt, tether
anchor and lower anchor.
If there is not enough space to place the child restraint system
because of the driver's seat,
install the child restraint system
in the rear right seat.

Follow the child seat manufacturer’s
instructions to properly install child
restraint seats with LATCH or LATCH-
compatible attachments.
Once you have installed the LATCH child
restraint, assure that the seat is properly
attached to the LATCH and tether
anchors. Also, test the child restraint seat
before you place the child in it. Tilt the
seat from side to side. Also try to tug the
seat forward. Check to see if the anchors
hold the seat in place.
Placing a passenger safety belt
into the auto lock mode
The use of the auto lock mode will
ensure that the normal movement of the
child in the vehicle does not cause the
safety belt to be pulled out and loosen
the firmness of its hold on the child
restraint system. To secure a child
restraint system, use the following proce-
dure.
WARNING
If the child restraint is not anchored
properly, there is a significant risk
of a child being seriously injured or
killed in a collision.
WARNING - LATCH lower
anchors
LATCH lower anchors are only to be
used with the left and right rear out-
board seating positions. Never
attempt to attach an LATCH
equipped seat in the center seating
position. You may damage the
anchors or the anchors may fail and
break in a collision.
WARNING
Install the child restraint seat fully
rearward against the seatback with
the seatback in a vertical position,
not reclined.
WARNING
When using the vehicle's
"LATCH" system to install a child
restraint system in the rear seat,
all unused vehicle rear seat belt
metal latch plates or tabs must be
latched securely in their seat belt
buckles and the seat belt webbing
must be retracted behind the
child restraint to prevent the child
from reaching and taking hold of
unretracted seat belts. Unlatched
metal latch plates or tabs may
allow the child to reach the unre-
tracted seat belts which may
result in strangulation and a seri-
ous injury or death to the child in
the child restraint.
Do not place anything around the lower anchors. Also make sure
that the seat belt is not caught in
the lower anchors.
CAUTION
Do not allow the rear seat belt web-bing to get scratched or pinched bythe Child-seat latch and LATCH anchor during the installation.

Installing a child restraint system bylap/shoulder belt
To install a child restraint system on the
outboard or center rear seats, do the fol-
lowing:
1. Place the child restraint system in the seat and route the lap/shoulder belt
around or through the restraint, follow-
ing the restraint manufacturer’s
instructions. Be sure the safety belt
webbing is not twisted. 2. Fasten the lap/shoulder belt latch into
the buckle. Listen for the distinct “click”
sound.Position the release button so that it iseasy to access in case of an emergency.
3. Pull the shoulder portion of the safety belt all the way out. When the shoulder
portion of the safety belt is fully
extended, it will shift the retractor to
the “Auto Lock” (child restraint) mode.

4. Slowly allow the shoulder portion of
the safety belt to retract and listen for
an audible “clicking” or “ratcheting”
sound. This indicates that the retractor
is in the “Auto Lock” mode. If no distinct
sound is heard, repeat steps 3 and 4. 5. Remove as much slack from the belt
as possible by pushing down on the
child restraint system while feeding the
shoulder belt back into the retractor.
6. Push and pull on the child restraint system to confirm that the safety belt is
holding it firmly in place. If it is not,
release the safety belt and repeat
steps 2 through 6.
7. Double check that the retractor is in the “Auto Lock” mode by attempting to
pull more of the safety belt out of the
retractor. If you cannot, the retractor is
in the “Auto Lock” mode.
To remove the child restraint, press the
release button on the buckle and then
pull the lap/shoulder belt out of the
restraint and allow the safety belt to
retract fully. When the safety belt is allowed to
retract to its fully stowed position, the
retractor will automatically switch
from the “Auto Lock” mode to the
emergency lock mode for normal
adult usage.
MMSA3029MMSA3030
WARNING- Auto lock
mode
The lap/shoulder belt automatically
returns to the “emergency lock
mode” whenever the belt is allowed
to retract fully. Therefore, the pre-
ceding seven steps must be fol-
lowed each time a child restraint is
installed.
If the safety belt is not placed in the
“Auto lock” mode, severe injury or
death could occur to the child
and/or other occupants in the vehi-
cle in a collision, since the child
restraint will not be effectively held
in place.

Curtain air bag (if equipped)
Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors.
It is designed to help protect the heads of
the front seat occupants and the rear out-
board seat occupants in certain side
impact collisions. If the curtain air bag deploys, it
remains inflated for approximately 3
seconds. The curtain air bag deploy-
ment occurs only on the side of the
vehicle affected by the impact.
The side air bags (side and curtain air bags) are not designed to deploy dur-
ing collisions from the front or rear of
the vehicle or in most rollover situa-
tions.
The curtain air bags are designed to deploy only during certain side-impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity, angle, speed and impact. The
curtain air bags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact situations.
WARNING
In order for side air bags (side
and curtain air bags) to provide
its best protection, both front seat
occupants and both outboard
rear occupants should sit in an
upright position with the seat
belts properly fastened.
Importantly, children should sit in
a proper child restraint system in
the rear seat.
(Continued)
