Curtain air bag (if equipped)
Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the center pillar. They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear outboard seat occupants in certain side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash se‐ verity, angle, speed and impact. The
curtain air bags are not designed to de‐
ploy in all side impact situations, colli‐ sions from the front or rear of the ve‐
hicle or in most rollover situations.
NOTICE

Safety features of your vehicle

SRS care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and so there are no parts you can safe‐
ly service by yourself. If the SRS air bag warning light does not illuminate, or
continuously remains on, have the sys‐
tem inspected by a professional work‐ shop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
•Modification to SRS components orwiring, including the addition ofany kind of badges to the pad cov‐ers or modifications to the bodystructure, can adversely affectSRS performance and lead to pos‐sible injury.
•For cleaning the air bag pad cov‐ers, use only a soft, dry cloth orone which has been moistenedwith plain water. Solvents or clean‐ers could adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deploymentof the system.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•No objects should be placed overor near the air bag modules on thesteering wheel, instrument panel,and the front passenger's panelabove the glove box, because anysuch object could cause harm ifthe vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the air bags to in‐flate.
•If the air bags inflate, have thesystem replaced by a professionalworkshop.Kia recommends to visit an au‐thorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.
•Do not tamper with or disconnectSRS wiring, or other componentsof the SRS system. Doing so couldresult in injury, due to accidentalinflation of the air bags or by ren‐dering the SRS inoperative.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•If components of the air bag sys‐tem must be discarded, or if thevehicle must be scrapped, certainsafety precautions must be ob‐served. An authorized Kia dealerknows these precautions and cangive you the necessary informa‐tion. Failure to follow these pre‐cautions and procedures could in‐crease the risk of personal injury.
•If your car was flooded and hassoaked carpeting or water onflooring, you shouldn't try to startthe engine; in this case, have yourvehicle inspected by a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends tocontact an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Additional safety precautions

•Passengers should not move out ofor change seats while the vehicle ismoving. A passenger who is not
wearing a seat belt during a crash or
emergency stop can be thrown
against the inside of the vehicle,
against other occupants, or out of
the vehicle.
•
Each seat belt is designed to restrainone occupant. If 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 claiming to improve oc‐
cupant comfort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provi‐
ded by the seat belt and increase the
chance of serious injury in a crash.
•
Passengers should not place hard orsharp objects between themselvesand the air bags. Carrying hard or
sharp objects on your lap or in your
mouth can result in injuries if an air
bag inflates. •
Keep occupants away from the airbag covers.
All occupants should sit
upright, fully back in their seats with
their seat belts on and their feet on
the floor. If occupants are too close
to the air bag covers, they could be injured if the air bags inflate.
•
Do not attach or place objects on ornear the air bag covers. Any object
attached to or placed on the front or
side air bag covers could interfere with the proper operation of the air
bags.
•
Do not modify the front seats. Modi‐
fication of the front seats could in‐
terfere with the operation of the
supplemental restraint system sens‐ ing components or side air bags.
•
Do not place items under the frontseats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the opera‐
tion of the supplemental restraint
system sensing components and wir‐ ing harnesses.
•
Never hold an infant or child on yourlap. The infant or child could be seri‐
ously injured or killed in the event of
a crash. All infants and children should be properly restrained in ap‐
propriate child safety seats or seat
belts in the rear seat.
WARNING
•Sitting improperly or out of posi‐tion can cause occupants to beshifted too close to a deploying airbag, strike the interior structureor be thrown from the vehicle re‐sulting in serious injury or death.
•Always sit upright with the seat‐back in an upright position, cen‐tered on the seat cushion withyour seat belt on, legs comfortablyextended and your feet on thefloor.
Adding equipment to or
modifying your air bag-
equipped vehicle

Don't neglect the interior
Moisture can collect under the floor
mats and carpeting and cause corro‐
sion. Check under the mats periodically to be sure the carpeting is dry. Use
particular care if you carry fertilizers,
cleaning materials or chemicals in the vehicle.
These should be carried only in proper
containers and any spills or leaks
should be cleaned up, flushed with clean water and thoroughly dried.
Interior care
Interior general precautions
Prevent chemicals such as perfume,
cosmetic oil, sun cream, hand cleaner, and air freshener from contacting the
interior parts because they may cause
damage or discoloration. If they do con‐ tact the interior parts, wipe them off
immediately. If necessary, use a vinyle
cleaner, see instructions for correct us‐ age.
CAUTION
Never allow water or other liquids tocome in contact with electrical/elec‐

tronic components inside the vehicleas this may damage them.
CAUTION
When cleaning leather products(steering wheel, seats etc.), useneutral detergents or low alcoholcontent solutions. If you use high al‐cohol content solutions or acid/alka‐line detergents, the color of theleather may fade or the surface mayget stripped off.
Taking care of leather seats
• Vacuum the seat periodically to re‐ move dust and sand on the seat. It
will prevent abrasion or damage of the leather and maintain its quality.
• Wipe the natural leather seat cover often with dry or soft cloth.
• Sufficient use of a leather protective may prevent abrasion of the cover
and helps maintain the color.
Be sure to read the instructions and
consult a specialist when using leath‐ er coating or protective agents. • Leather with bright colors(beige,
cream beige) is easily contaminated
and clear in appearance. Clean the
seats frequently.
• Avoid wiping with wet cloth. It may cause the surface to crack.
Cleaning the leather seats
• Remove all contaminations instantly.Refer to instructions below for re‐
moval of each contaminant.
• Cosmetic products(sunscreen, foun‐ dation, etc.)- Apply cleansing cream on a cloth and wipe the contaminated point.
Wipe off the cream with a wet
cloth and remove water with a dry
cloth.
• Beverages(coffee, soft drink, etc.) - Apply a small amount of neutraldetergent and wipe until contami‐
nations do not smear.
• Oil - Remove oil instantly with absorba‐ble cloth and wipe with stain re‐
mover for natural leather only.
• Chewing gum - Harden the gum with ice and re‐move gradually.

Fabric seat cover using precautions
(If equipped)
Please clean the fabric seats regularly
with a vacuum cleaner in consideration of fabric material characteristics. If
they are heavily soiled with beverage
stains, etc., use a suitable interior cleaner. To prevent damage to seat
covers, wipe off the seat covers down
to the seams with a large wiping mo‐ tion and moderate pressure using a
soft sponge or microfiber cloth. Velcro
closures on clothing or sharp objects may cause snagging or scratches on
the surface of the seats. Make sure not
to rub such objects against the surface.
Cleaning the upholstery and
interior trim
Vinyl
Remove dust and loose dirt from vinyl
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner. Clean vinyl surfaces with a vinyl clean‐
er.
Fabric

with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner. Clean with a mild soap solution recom‐
mended for upholstery or carpets. Re‐
move fresh spots immediately with a fabric spot cleaner. If fresh spots do
not receive immediate attention, the
fabric can be stained and its color can be affected. Also, its fire-resistant
properties can be reduced if the mate‐
rial is not properly maintained.
CAUTION
Using anything but recommendedcleaners and procedures may affectthe fabric’s appearance and fire-re‐sistant properties.
Cleaning the lap/shoulder belt
webbing
Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for clean‐ ing upholstery or carpet. Follow the in‐
structions provided with the soap. Do
not bleach or re-dye the webbing be‐ cause this may weaken it.
