Side airbag (if equipped) Side airbags are stored in the left
side of the driver’s seat and right side
of the front passenger’s seat. If airbag inflation conditions are met
(side collision), they will inflate. Curtain airbag (if equipped)
Curtain airbags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the heads of the front seat occupantsand the rear outboard seat occupants
in certain side impact collisions.
WARNING
Do not use any accessory seat covers for the vehicle
equipped with side airbags.
Use of seat covers could inter-
fere with side airbag deploy-ment.
If seat or seat cover is dam-
aged, have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized Kia dealer. Inform
them that your vehicle is
equipped with side airbags.

Installing a child restraint on a
front passenger seat is forbid-den.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger seat.
If the airbag deploys, it would impact
the rear-facing child restraint, caus-
ing serious or fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraint in the front passenger
seat either. If the front passenger
airbag inflates, it would cause seri-
ous or fatal injuries to the improperly
positioned or improperly restrainedchild.
WARNING
Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint
on a seat protected by an air
bag in front of it!
Never put child restraint in the front passenger seat. If the
front passenger airbag
inflates, it would cause seri-ous or fatal injuries.
When children are seated in the rear outboard seats in
which curtain airbags are
equipped, be sure to put the
child restraint system as far
away from the door side as
possible, and secure the child
restraint system to be lockedin position.
Inflation of side or curtain
airbag (if equipped) could
cause serious injury or death
due to the expansion impact.WARNING
When the airbags deploy, the
airbag related parts in steeringwheel and/or instrument panel
and/or in both sides of the roof
rails above the front and rear
doors are very hot. To prevent
injury, do not touch the airbag
storage areas internal compo-
nents immediately after an
airbag has inflated.

roofs, or installing car audio aroundcenter console or painting front
metal sheet could disable the
airbag system. Have them checked
by an authorized Kia dealer.
When leaving the vehicle at an authorized Kia dealer, inform that
the vehicle is equipped with airbag
system, and leave the owner’s
manual in the vehicle.
Since airbag system contains explosive chemical substances,
contact an authorized Kia dealer

Supplemental Restraint System. Excessive modification couldmake the airbag system ineffec-tive.
WARNING
Do not modify your steering wheel, seat or any other part of the Supplemental Restraint
System. Modification could
make the system inoperable.
Do not work on the system’s components or wiring. This
could cause the airbags to
inflate inadvertently, possibly
seriously injuring someone.

also disable the system so
that the airbags would not
deploy in a collision.

nician. Improper handling of

For best battery service :
Keep the battery securely mount-ed.
Keep the battery top clean and dry.
Keep the terminals and connec- tions clean, tight, and coated with
petroleum jelly or terminal grease.
Rinse any spilled electrolyte from the battery immediately with a
solution of water and baking soda.
If the vehicle is not going to be used for an extended time, discon-
nect the battery cables. Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged
in a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on while the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours.
Items to be reset after the battery
has been discharged or the bat-tery has been disconnected.
