Fuel Additives
Kia recommends that you use good
quality gasolines treated with deter-
gent additives such as TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline, which helps
prevent deposit formation in the
engine. These gasolines will help the
engine run cleaner and enhance per-
formance of the Emission Control
System. For more information on
TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline,
please go to the website (www.top
-
tiergas.com
).
For Customers who do not use TOP
TIER Detergent Gasoline regularly,
and have problems starting or the
engine does not run smoothly, addi-
tives that you can buy separately
may be added to the gasoline. If
TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is not
available, one bottle of additive
added to the fuel tank at 7,500 miles
or every engine oil change is recom-
mended. Additives are available from
your authorized K900 Kia dealer
along with information on how to use
them. Do not mix other additives.
Operation in foreign countries
If you are going to drive your vehicle
in another country, be sure to:
Observe all regulations regarding registration and insurance.
Determine that acceptable fuel is available. No special break-in period is needed.
By following a few simple precautions
for the first 600 miles (1,000 km) you
may add to the performance, econo-
my and life of your vehicle.
Do not race the engine.
While driving, keep your engine
speed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is
needed to properly break-in the
engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emer- gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly.

Rear seat adjustment
- for power seat (if equipped)
The rear seat can be adjusted by
using the control switches located on
the door.When in operation, the power seat
consumes a large amount of electri-
cal power. To prevent unnecessary
battery drain, don’t adjust the power
seat longer than necessary while the
engine is not running.

The power seat is operable with
the Engine Start/Stop Button in
OFF.
Therefore, children should never
be left unattended in the vehicle.
WARNING
Seat adjustment
Do not adjust the seat whilewearing seat belts. Moving the
seat forward will cause strong
pressure on the abdomen.
Do not place your hand near the seat when adjusting the
seat. Your hand could get
caught in the seat mecha-
nism.
WARNING
Do not operate the rear power
seat while the child seat is
installed. Operation of the rear
power seats affect the proper
car seat installation and thereby
increase the risk of injury to the
child seat occupant.
WARNING
Power seat adjustments
The power seating controls
function by electronic motor.
Excessive operation may cause
damage to the electrical equip-
ment.
CAUTION
Power Seating
Do not operate two or more
power seat control switches at
the same time. Doing so may
damage the power seat motor
or electrical components.

To obtain maximum benefit from a
pre-tensioner seat belt:
1.The seat belt must be worn cor-rectly and adjusted to the proper
position. Please read and follow all
of the important information and
precautions about your vehicle’s
occupant safety features – includ-
ing seat belts and air bags – that
are provided in this manual.
2.Be sure you and your passengers always wear seat belts properly.✽ NOTICE
• Both the driver's and front pas-
senger's seat belt pre-tensioner
system may be activated not only
in certain frontal collision but also
in certain side collision or rollover,
if the vehicle is equipped with a
side or curtain air bag.
• When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise may be
heard and fine dust, which may
appear to be smoke, may be visible
in the passenger compartment.
These are normal operating condi-
tions and are not hazardous.
• Because the sensor that activates the SRS air bag is connected with
the pre-tensioner seat belt, the
SRS air bag warning light on
the instrument panel will illumi-
nate for approximately 6 seconds
after the Engine Start/Stop button
has been turned to the ON posi-
tion, and then it should turn off.
If the pre-tensioner seat belt system
are not working properly, this warn-
ing light will illuminate even if there is
no malfunction of the SRS air bag. If
the SRS air bag warning light does
not illuminate when the Engine
Start/Stop button is turned ON, or if it
remains illuminated after illuminating
for approximately 6 seconds, or if it
illuminates while the vehicle is being
driven, have an authorized author-
ized K900 Kia dealer inspect the pre-
tensioner seat belt and SRS air bag
system as soon as possible.
Skin Irritation
Wash all exposed skin areas
thoroughly after an accident in
which the pre-tensioner seat
belts were activated. The fine
dust from the pre-tensioner
activation may cause skin irrita-
tion and should not be breathed
for prolonged periods.

The pre-safe seat belt warning light
will illuminate if there is a problem
with your pre-safe seat belt.
Have the system checked if:
The light does not turn on brieflywhen you turn the engine
start/stop button to the ON posi-
tion.
The light stays on after illumination for approximately 3 seconds.
The light comes on while the vehi- cle is in motion. The pre-safe seat belt system oper-
ates as below
The seat belt is tightened when:
- The vehicle senses a collision
- Emergency braking situation occurs
- Loss of vehicle control
The seat belt vibrates when: - The vehicle detects and object too close to the vehicle
Other function is winding a loose
seat belt after unfastening seatbelt.
Seat belt precautions
Infant or small child
All 50 states have child restraint
laws. You should be aware of the
specific requirements in your state.
Child and/or infant seats must be
properly placed and installed in the
rear seat. For more information
about the use of these restraints,
refer to “Child restraint system” in this
chapter.

■ Type A■Type B
Do not be surprised when the
seat belt vibrates. It’s not a mal-
function but a warning for your
safety.

How does the air bag system
operate
Air bags are activated (able toinflate if necessary) only when the
Engine Start/Stop button is turned
to the ON or engine is running.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of serious frontal or side col-
lision (if equipped with side air bag
or curtain air bag) in order to help
protect the occupants from serious
physical injury.
There is no single speed at which the air bags will inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision and its direction. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce an electronic
deployment/ inflation signal.
Air bag deployment depends on a number of complex factors includ-
ing vehicle speed, angles of impact
and the density and stiffness of the
vehicles or objects which your
vehicle hits in the collision. Though,
factors are not limited to those
mentioned above. The front air bags will completely
inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to
see the air bags inflate during an
accident. It is much more likely that
you will simply see the deflated air
bags hanging out of their storage
compartments after the collision.
In order to help provide protection in a severe collision, the air bags
must inflate rapidly. The speed of
air bag inflation is a consequence
of extremely short time in which a
collision occurs and the need to
get the air bag between the occu-
pant and the vehicle structures
before the occupant impacts those
structures. This speed of inflation
reduces the risk of serious or life-
threatening injuries in a severe col-
lision and is thus a necessary part
of air bag design.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include
facial abrasions, bruises and bro-
ken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force. There are even circumstances
under which contact with the
steering wheel air bag can cause
fatal injuries, especially if the
occupant is positioned exces-
sively close to the steering
wheel.
Airbag inflation
Sit as far back as possible from
the steering wheel while still
maintaining comfortable con-
trol of the your vehicle. A dis-
tance of at least 10" from your
chest to the steering wheel is
recommended. Failure to do so
can result in airbag inflation
injuries to the driver.
