Battery replacementTransmitter uses a 3 volt lithium bat-
tery which will normally last for sev-
eral years. When replacement is
necessary, use the following proce-
dure.
1. Insert a slim tool into the slot andgently pry open the transmitter
center cover (
➀).
2. Replace the battery with new one. When replacing the battery, make
sure the battery positive “+” sym-
bol faces up as indicated in the
illustration.
3. Install the battery in the reverse order of removal.
✽ ✽NOTICEThe keyless entry system transmit-
ter is designed to give you years of
troublefree use, however it can mal-
function if exposed to moisture or
static electricity. If you are unsure
how to use your transmitter or
replace the battery, contact an
authorized Kia dealer.
For replacement transmitters, see
an Authorized Kia Dealer for repro-
gramming.

Power windows The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to oper-
ate. Each door has a power window
switch that controls that door’s win-
dow. However, the driver has a power
window lock switch which can block
the operation of passenger windows.
If you notice buffeting and pulsation
(wind shock) with either side window
open, you should open the opposite
window slightly to reduce the condi-
tion.
✽ ✽NOTICETo prevent the power window sys-
tem from the possibility of damage,
do not open or close two windows at
the same time. This will also ensure
the longevity of the fuse.
CAUTION
 Make sure hands and face are
safely out of the way beforeclosing a window.
 Do not allow children to play with the power windows. Keepthe driver’s door power win-dow lock switch in the LOCKposition (depressed). Seriousinjury can result from uninten-tional window operation bythe child.
 Do not extend face or arms outside through the windowopening while driving.
 Always double check to make sure all arms, hands and otherobstructions are safely out ofthe way before closing a win-dow

Recalling positions from memory1. Shift the transaxle lever into Pwhile the ignition switch is ON.
2. To recall the position in memory, press the desired memory button
(1 or 2) the system will beep once,
then seat and outside rearview
mirror will automatically adjust to
the stored positions.
Adjusting one of the control knobs for
the seat or outside rearview mirror
while the system is recalling the
stored positions will cause the move-
ment for that component to stop and
move in the direction that the control
knob is moved. Other components
will continue position recalling.
To stop the position recall at any
point in the recall process, press the
STOP button once. Seat and outside
rearview mirror position recalling will
stop.
Storing and recalling with
transmitterStoring with the transmitterTurn the ignition switch to LOCK from
ON and lock all the doors using the
transmitter. The seat and outside
rearview mirror positions will be
stored in the system memory.
Driver’ s position recalling with
transmitterUnlock the door with the transmitter,
positions stored in the system mem-
ory will be recalled automatically.
If using two transmitters, recalling
times may vary because stored posi-
tions in each transmitter may be dif-
ferent.
Example) If doors are locked with
transmitter A and unlocked with
transmitter B, the positions memo-
rized when unlocked with transmitter
B will be recalled and may take
slightly longer than if unlocked with
transmitter A.
CAUTION
Use caution when recalling adjustment memory while sit-ting in the vehicle. Press theSTOP button immediately if theseat moves too far in any direc-tion.

Pre-tensioner seat beltYour vehicle is equipped with driver’s
and front passenger’s pre-tensioner
seat belts. The purpose of the pre-
tensioner is to make sure that the
seat belts fit tightly against the occu-
pant’s body in certain frontal colli-
sions. The pre-tensioner seat belts
can be activated alone or, together
with the air bags, where the frontal
collision is severe enough. The seat belt pre-tensioner system
consists mainly of the following com-
ponents. Their locations are shown in
the illustration.

CAUTION
The pre-tensioner seat belt is
installed at the front seats, andthe sensor is equipped insidethe buckle, where presence ofpassenger is sensed by the fas-tening of the seat belts.Therefore, pre-tensioner will notactivate if the passenger is notfastened with the seat belts.Likewise, it will activate if buck-led even without a passenger inthe seat. Pre-tensioner seat beltis designed to activate when theseatbelt is in use. To ensure thepretensioner seatbelts activatein event of a possible seatbeltbuckle switch malfunction, thesystem is designed to activateregardless of whether a seatbelt is in use or if no seat beltuse is detected within 6 sec-onds of turning the ignitionswitch ON.

seat belt assemblies.
 Do not attempt to service or
repair the pre-tensioner seat
belt system in any manner.
 Improper handling of the pre-
tensioner seat belt assem-
blies, and failure to heed the
warnings not to strike, modify,
inspect, place, service or
repair the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies may lead to
improper operation or inad-
vertent activation causing
serious injury.
Always wear the seat belts
when driving or riding in a
motor vehicle.
CAUTION
Because the sensor that acti-
vates the SRS air bag is con-nected with pre-tensioner seatbelt, the SRS air bag warninglight on the instrument panelwill blink or illuminate forapproximately 6 seconds afterthe ignition key has beenturned to the “ON”position,
then the light should go off.
 If the pre-tensioner seat belt is
not working properly, thiswarning light will illuminateeven if there is no malfunctionof SRS air bag system. If theSRS air bag warning lightdoes not illuminate when theignition key is turned to “ON”,
or if it remains illuminated after blinking or illuminatingfor approximately 6 seconds,or if it illuminates while thevehicle is being driven, pleasehave an authorized Kia dealerinspect the pre-tensioner seatbelt or SRS air bag system assoon as possible.
WARNING
 Pre-tensioners are designed
to operate once. After activa-
tion, pre-tensioner seat belts
must be replaced. All seat
belts, of any type, should
always be replaced after they
have been worn during a colli-
sion.
 Do not attempt to inspect or
replace the pre-tensioner seat
belts yourself. This must be
done by an authorized Kia

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.
