backward to move the seat to the
desired position. Release the knob
and the seat will lock in the selected
position. Adjust the seat before driving, and
make sure the seat is locked secure-

(Continued)
Always drive and ride with
your seatback upright and the
lap portion of the safety belt,
or lap belt, snug and low
across the hips. This position
puts your safety belts in the
best position to protect you in
case of an accident.
In order to avoid unnecessary
airbag injuries including the
possibility of severe injury or
death, always sit as far back
as possible from the steering
wheel while still being able to
maintain comfortable control
of your vehicle.
The Canadian Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards (CMVSS)
recommends that the driver
sit at least 10 inches (250 mm)
away from the steering wheel
to avoid the risk of serious
injury or death due to the
deployment of the driver’ s
airbag.

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 3-53 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. Safety belts provide the best restraint
when:
The seatback is upright.
The occupant is sitting upright (not
slouched).
The lap belt is snug across the hips.
The shoulder belt is snug across the chest.
The knees are straight forward.
To help you remember to fasten your
safety belt, a warning light will come
on and a chime will sound. See
Safety Belt Warning Light and Chime
on page 3-42.
WARNING
- After a colli- sion
Lap/shoulder belt assemblies
may be stretched or damaged
when subjected to the stress
and forces of a collision.
The entire restraint system
should be inspected following
any collision. All belts, retrac-
tors, anchors and hardware
damaged by a collision should
be replaced before the vehicle
is operated again.

Child restraint system
(if equipped)For small children and babies, the
use of a child seat or infant seat is
required by law. This child seat or
infant seat should be of appropriate
size for the child and should be
installed in accordance with the man-
ufacturer's instructions. It is strongly
recommended that the seat be
placed in the vehicle's rear seat
since this can make an important
contribution to safety.
Children riding in the car should sit
on the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in the
rear seats than in the front seat. You are required by law to use safe-
ty restraints for children. If small chil-
dren ride in your vehicle you must
put them in a child restraint system
(safety seat).
Children could be injured or killed in
a crash if their restraints are not
properly secured. For small children
and babies, a child seat or infant seat
must be used. Before buying a par-
ticular child restraint system, make
sure it fits your car and seat belts,
and fits your child. Follow all the
instructions provided by the manu-
facturer when installing the child
restraint system.
E1BLA204
WARNING
A child restraint system must
be placed in the rear seat.
Never install a child or infant
seat on the front passenger's
seat.
Should an accident occur and
cause the passenger airbag to
deploy, it could severely injure
or kill an infant or child seated
in an infant or child seat. Thus,
only use a child restraint in
the rear seat of your vehicle.

Since a safety belt or child
restraint system can become
very hot if it is left in a closed
vehicle, be sure to check the
seat cover and buckles before
placing a child there.
When the child restraint sys-
tem is not in use, store it in the
trunk or fasten it with a safety
belt so that it will not be
thrown forward in the case of
a sudden stop or an accident.
Children who are too large to
be in a child restraint should
sit in the rear seat and be
restrained with the available
lap/shoulder belts. Never
allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Always make sure that the
shoulder belt portion of the
lap/shoulder belt is positioned
midway over the shoulder,
never across the neck or
behind the back. The lap belt
portion of the lap/shoulder
belt must always be posi-
tioned as low as possible on
the child's hips and as snug
as possible.
If the seat belt will not proper-
ly fit the child the use of an
approved booster seat in the
rear seat must be used in
order to raise the child's seat-
ing height so that the seat belt
will properly fit the child.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Never allow a child to stand up
or kneel on the seat.
Never use an infant carrier or
child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback; it may not
provide adequate security in
an accident.
Never allow a child to be held
in a person's arms while they
are in a moving vehicle, 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 mov-
ing vehicle does not provide
the child with any means of
protection during an accident,
even if the person holding the
child is wearing a seat belt.

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 passenger 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 airbag 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 child
restraint 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.

Placing a passenger safety
belt into the auto lock modeThe 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 procedure.Installing a child restraint system by
lap/shoulder belt
To install a child restraint system on
the outboard or center rear seats, do
the following:
1. Place the child restraint system inthe seat and route the lap/shoul-
der belt around or through the
restraint, following 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 dis-
tinct “click” sound.
Position the release button so that itis easy to access in case of an emer-gency.
