WARNING
 Pre-tensioners are designed to operate only one time. After acti-
vation, pre-tensioner seat belts
must be replaced. All seat belts,
of any type, should always be

worn during a collision.
(Continued)
WARNING
All occupants of the vehicle must wear their seat belts at all times.
Seat belts and child restraintsreduce the risk of serious or fatal
injuries for all occupants in the
event of a collision or sudden stop.
Without a seat belt, occupants
could be shifted too close to a
deploying air bag, strike the interior
structure or be thrown from the
vehicle. Properly worn seat belts
greatly reduce these hazards.
Always follow the precautions
about seat belts, air bags and occu-
pant seat contained in this manual.
(Continued)
 The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly mechanisms become
hot during activation. Do not
touch the pre-tensioner seat belt
assemblies for several minutes
after they have been activated.
 Do not attempt to inspect or replace the pre-tensioner seat
belts yourself. We recommend
that the system be inspected by
an authorized Kia dealer.
 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, replace,
service or repair the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies may lead to
improper operation or inadvertent
activation and serious injury.
 Always wear the seat belts when driving or riding in a motor vehi-
cle.
 If the vehicle or pre-tensioner seat belt must be discarded, we rec-
ommend that you contact an
authorized Kia dealer.
