Driver’ s seat adjustmentForward/backward position and
height adjustmentAdjusting the seat forward and back-
ward
Push the control button forward or
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-
ly by trying to move forward and
backward without using the control
knob. If the seat moves, it is not
locked properly.
(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.

Driver position memory system
(if equipped)A driver position memory system is
provided to store and recall the seat
and outside mirror positions with a
simple button operation. By saving
the desired positions into the system
memory, different drivers can reposi-
tion the seat and outside mirror
based upon their driving preference.
See page 3-34 for detail information.
Headrest adjustmentAdjusting forward and backward
The headrest may be adjusted for-
ward to three different positions by
pulling the headrest forward. To
adjust the headrest backward, pull it
fully forward to the farthest position
and release it. Adjust the headrest so
that it properly supports the head
and neck. Adjusting the height up and down
The headrest not only provides com-
fort for the driver and passengers,
but also helps to protect the head
and neck in the event of a collision.
To raise the headrest, pull it up to the
desired position (
➀). To lower the
headrest, push and hold the release
button (
➁) on the headrest support
and lower the headrest to the desired
position (➂). For best protection,
adjust the headrest so its center is as
high as your ears. Also adjust the
headrest so its distance from the
head is as wide as your fist.

(Continued)
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.

WARNING
A wheel that is not the correct
size may adversely affect wheel
and bearing life, braking and
stopping abilities, handling
characteristics, ground clear-
ance, body-to-tire clearance,
snow chain clearance,
speedometer calibration, head-
light aim and bumper height.Wheel replacement When replacing the metal wheels for
any reason, make sure the new
wheels are equivalent to the original
factory units in diameter, rim width
and offset.
WARNING
When replacing tires, never
mix radial, bias-belted, and
bias-type tires. All four tires
should be of the same size,
design and construction. Use
only the tire sizes listed on the
Tire Label found below the
door striker on the driver’ s
side. Make sure that all tires
and wheels are the same size
and have the same load-carry-
ing capacity. Use only tire and
wheel combinations recom-
mended on the Tire Label or
by an Authorized Kia Dealer.
Failure to follow these precau-
tions can adversely affect the
safety and handling of your
vehicle.
(Continued)
(Continued)
The use of any other tire size
or type may seriously affect
ride, handling, ground clear-
ance, tire clearance, and
speedometer calibration.
 Driving on worn-out tires is
very hazardous and will
reduce braking effectiveness,
steering accuracy, and trac-
tion.
 It is best to replace all four
tires at the same time. If that is
not possible, or necessary,
then replace the two front or
two rear tires as a pair.
Replacing just one tire can
seriously affect your vehicle ’s
handling.
