3For a seating position more comfortable
to the driver and front passenger, adjust
the seat forward, backward, up and
down.
WARNING
Loose objects in the driver’s foot
area could interfere with the oper-
ation of the foot pedals, possibly
causing an accident. Loose
objects might interfere with the
seat slide mechanism. Do not
place anything under the front
seats.
The power seats are operable with the ignition OFF.
Therefore, children should never
be left unattended in the car.
WARNING
- Driver’s seat
Never attempt to adjust the seatwhile the vehicle is moving. This
could result in loss of control, and
an accident causing death, seri-
ous injury, or property damage.
Do not allow anything to interfere with the normal position of the
seatback. Storing items against a
seatback or in any other way inter-
fering with proper locking of a
seatback could result in serious
or fatal injury in a sudden stop or
collision.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Always drive and ride with yourseatback upright and the lap por-
tion of the safety belt, or lap belt,
snug and low across the hips.
This position puts your safety
belts in the best position to pro-
tect you in case of an accident.
In order to avoid unnecessary air bag injuries including the possi-
bility of severe injury or death,
always sit as far back as possible
from the steering wheel while still
being able to maintain comfort-
able control of your vehicle.
The Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) rec-
ommends that the driver sit at
least 250 mm (10 inches) away
from the steering wheel to avoid
the risk of serious injury or death
due to the deployment of the dri-
ver’s air bag.
CAUTION
Power seats are driven by electric motor. Stop operating when theadjustment is completed.
Excessive operation may damagethe electrical equipment.
When in operation, the power seats consume large amounts ofelectrical power. To preventunnecessary charging system drain, don’t adjust the powerseats longer than necessarywhile the engine is not running.
Do not operate two or more power seat control buttons at the sametime. Doing so may result inpower seat motor or electricalcomponent malfunction.

Warming and ventilating the front
seats (if equipped)Warming the seatsThe front seats can be electrically heated
individually when the ignition switch is
ON. When the switch is ON, a number
ranging from 1 to 5 is displayed on the
switch (5 = warmest setting).
To turn off the seat warmer, set the
switch to 0.
The seat warmer turns off automatically
when the seat temperature reaches the
selected range and will turn on again if
the temperature drops below the select-
ed range.
Ventilating the seatsThe front seats are ventilated by the
small vent hole on the surface of the
seats and seatbacks, when the ignition
switch is ON and the control switch is dis-
played in the range of -1 to -3.
Do not spill liquid such as water or bev-
erages on the surface of the front seats
and seatbacks. For the air vent holes
may be blocked and prevent them from
working properly.
Do not place materials such as plastic
bags or newspapers under the seats. The
air vent may not work properly as the air
intake can be blocked.
When the air vent does not operate,
restart the vehicle. If there is no change,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized KIA dealer.
As you operate the control switch, you
will be able to notice the temperature
change after 3 to 5 minutes. For the tem-
perature is adjusted by the small air vent.
For more effective use, you may use it
with the air conditioner and heater.

for the rear passengers, but also helps
protect the head and neck in the event of

3Pre-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 occupant’ s body in certain
frontal collisions. The pre-tensioner seat
belts can be activated alone or, together
with the air bags, where the frontal colli-
sion is severe enough.
✽ ✽ NOTICEThe pre-tensioner seat belt is installed at
the front seats, and the sensor is
equipped inside the buckle, where pres-
ence of passenger is sensed by the fas-
tening of the seat belts. Therefore, pre-
tensioner will not activate if the passen-
ger is not fastened with the seat belts.
Likewise, it will activate if buckled even
without a passenger in the seat. Pre-ten-
sioner seat belt is designed to activate
when the seatbelt is in use. To ensure
the pretensioner seatbelts activate in
event of a possible seatbelt buckle
switch malfunction, the system is
designed to activate regardless of
whether a seat belt is in use or if no seat
belt use is detected within 6 seconds of
turning the ignition switch ON.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system con-
sists mainly of the following components.
Their locations are shown in the illustra-
tion.➀

Safety belt restraint system
We strongly recommend that the driver
and all passengers be properly
restrained at all times by using the safety
belts provided with the vehicle. Proper
use of the safety belts decreases the risk
of severe injury or death in accidents or
sudden stops. In most states, and in
Canada, the law requires their use.
All seats have lap/shoulder belts. Inertial
locks in the safety belt retractors allow all
of the lap/shoulder safety belts to remain
unlocked during normal vehicle opera-
tion. This allows the occupants some
freedom of movement and increased
comfort while using the safety belts. If a
force is applied to the vehicle, such as a
strong stop, a sharp turn, or a collision,
the safety belt retractors will automatical-
ly lock the safety belts.
WARNING
Do not strike the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies.
Do not attempt to service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt
system in any manner.
Improper handling of the pre-ten- sioner seat belt assemblies, and
failure to heed the warnings not
to strike, modify, inspect, place,
service or repair the pre-tension-
er seat belt assemblies may lead
to improper operation or inadver-
tent activation causing serious
injury.
Always wear the seat belts
when driving or riding in a motor
vehicle.
WARNING
- Safety belts
To minimize the risk of serious or
fatal injury in an accident, the driv-
er and all passengers should use
the appropriate safety restraints for
their age and size. The presence of
air bags does not change the need
to be properly restrained by a safe-
ty belt or size-appropriate child
restraint. In fact, air bags are
designed to work the best when
passengers are correctly restrained
in the vehicle. Be sure you are
familiar with the information in this
section, including the information
on infant and child restraints. Read
the safety warnings on the sun
visors of your vehicle also.

Restraint of infants and small
children To increase their safety, infants and
young children should always be
restrained by a restraint system
approved for their age and size.
Never allow a child to stand or kneel on
the seat of a moving vehicle. Never allow
a safety belt to be placed around both a
child and an adult or around two children
at the same time.
It is best for children to be seated in the
rear seats.Many companies manufacture child
restraint systems (often called child
seats) for infants and small children. An
acceptable child restraint system must
always satisfy Canadian Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards. Make sure that any
child-restraint system you use in your
vehicle is labelled as complying with
Federal Safety Standards.
The child-restraint system should be
chosen to fit both the size of the child and
the size of the vehicle seat. Be sure to fol-
low any instructions provided by the
child-restraint system manufacturer
when installing the child-restraint system.
WARNING
- Children on
laps
Never hold a child on your lap or in
your arms in a moving vehicle.
Even a very strong person cannot
hold onto a child in the event of
even a minor collision.
WARNING
- Infants and
young children
Infants and young children are at
much greater risk of serious injury
or death in an accident or sudden
stop if they are unrestrained or
restrained improperly. Follow all
instructions in this section of your
Kia manual and the instructions
that came on and with an
improved child safety restraint
system. The child restraint must
be correctly installed in the vehi-
cle, and the child must be correct-
ly installed in the child restraint.
All children under 12 are safest in the back seat.
Never install a child or infant seat in the front passenger position.
The baby could be injured or
killed by the air bag if it deploys in
an accident.
Never allow a child to stand or
kneel on the seat of a moving vehi-
cle. Insist the child sit down in an
approved restraint system.
