Side air bag (if equipped)Side air bags are stored in the left side of
the driver’ s seat and right side of the front
passenger’ s seat.
If air bag inflation conditions are met
(side collision), they will inflate.
(Continued)
 Never allow front passengers to put their hands, feet or face on or
close to the instrument panel. In
the event of air bag deployment,
such a mispositioned occupant
would be likely to suffer severe
injury or death.
 Never allow children, pregnant women or weak persons to sit in
the front passenger seat. They
may be seriously injured by the
air bag inflation when air bag
deploys.
 Do not use child restraint sys- tems on the front passenger's
seat, as inflation may cause death
or severe personal injury.
 Do not put objects or stickers on the instrument panel. Do not
apply any accessory on the front
windshield glass and do not
install aftermarket mirrors or
accessories on the factory
installed rearview mirror. Any of
these could interfere with the
deployment of air bag inflation or
could hit your body at high speed
and cause severe bodily injury
and even death.
WARNING
- Seat covers,
damage and modifications
 Do not use any accessory seat
covers for a vehicle equipped
with side air bags.
Use of seat covers could interfere
with side air bag deployment.
If seat is damaged, have the vehi-
cle checked and repaired by an
authorized Kia dealer. Inform
them that your vehicle is
equipped with side air bags and
an occupant detection system.
 Do not make modifications or additions to the seats as they may
cause the air bag system to mal-
function resulting in severe per-
sonal injury or death.

Outside rearview mirror Be sure to adjust mirror angles before
driving.
Your vehicle is equipped with both left-
hand and right-hand outside rearview
mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted
remotely with the control levers or remote
switch, depending on the type of mirror
control installed. The mirror heads can be
folded back to prevent damage during an
automatic car wash or when passing in a
narrow street.
✽ ✽NOTICEDo not scrape ice off the mirror face;
this may damage the surface of the
glass. If ice should restrict movement of
the mirror, do not force the mirror for
adjustment. To remove ice, use a deicer
spray, or a sponge or soft cloth with very
warm water.
Manual remote control
(if equipped)To adjust an outside mirror, move the
control lever located at the forward inside
area of the window frame.
MIRRORS
CAUTION
 The right outside rearview mirror is convex. Objects seen in themirror are closer than they appear.

3Electric type (if equipped)When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror. The sen-
sor mounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and through a
chemical reaction, automatically controls
the headlight glare from vehicles behind
you.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into
reverse (R), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
cle.
When the ignition switch is ON, the auto-
matic- dimming function will turn on auto-
matically.✽ ✽
NOTICEWhen cleaning the mirror, use a paper
towel or similar material dampened
with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly on the mirror as that
may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the
mirror housing.

automatic- dimming function off. The mir-
ror indicator light will turn off.

mirror can compensate for this difference
when it knows the Magnetic Zone in
which it is operating. This is set either by
the dealer or by the user. The operating
Zone Numbers for North America are
shown in the figure to the right. To adjust the Zone setting:

based upon your current location on
the Zone Map.

the current Zone Number will appear
on the display.

Driving your vehicle
There are some conditions that can
cause changes to the vehicle magnets.
Items such as installing a ski rack or a
CB antenna or even some body repair
work on the vehicle can cause changes
to the vehicle's magnetic field. In these
situations, the compass will need to be
re-calibrated to quickly correct for these
changes. To re-calibrate the compass:
1. Press and hold the button formore than 6 seconds. When the com-
pass memory is cleared a "C" will
appear in the display.
2. To calibrate the compass, drive the vehicle in 2 complete circles at less
than 8 Km/h (5 mph). The back warning system assists the
driver during backward movement of the
vehicle by sounding a tone of variable
duration if any object is sensed within the
distance of 120 cm (47.2 in.) behind the
vehicle. This system is a supplemental
system and it is not intended to nor does
it replace the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The sensing range
and objects detectable by the back sen-
sors are limited. Whenever backing-up,
pay as much attention to what is behind
you as you would in a vehicle without a
back warning system.
WARNING
- Supplemental
back warning
Back warning system is only a sup-
plementary function. The driver
must turn and look behind the vehi-
cle before backing and then cau-
tiously checks all these rear view
mirrors while backing. The respon-
sibility of backing up rests always
with the driver.
