CAUTION
A Child Restraint System in a closedvehicle can become very hot. To pre‐vent burns, check the seating sur‐face and buckles before placing yourchild in the Child Restraint System.
ISOFIX anchorage and top-
tether anchorage (ISOFIX
anchorage system) for children
The ISOFIX system holds a Child Re‐
straint System during driving and in an accident. This system is designed to
make installation of the Child Restraint
System easier and reduce the possibili‐ ty of improperly installing your Child
Restraint System. The ISOFIX system
uses anchors in the vehicle and attach‐ ments on the Child Restraint System.
The ISOFIX system eliminates the need
to use seat belts to secure the Child Restraint System to the rear seats.
ISOFIX anchorages are metal bars built
into the vehicle. There are two lower
anchors for each ISOFIX seating posi‐ tion that will accommodate a Child Re‐
straint System with lower attach‐
ments. To use the ISOFIX system in your vehi‐
cle, you must have a Child Restraint
System with ISOFIX attachments.
The Child Restraint System manufac‐
turer will provide you with instructions on how to use the Child Restraint Sys‐
tem with its attachments for the ISO‐
FIX anchorages.
# % / '
ISOFIX anchorages have been provided
in the left and right outboard rear seat‐
ing positions. Their locations are shown in the illustration.
WARNING
Do not attempt to install a Child Re‐straint System using ISOFIX ancho‐rages in the rear center seating po‐sition. There are no ISOFIX anchorag‐es provided for this seat. Using theoutboard seat anchorages, for theCRS installation on the rear centerseating position, can damage the an‐chorages.

ISOFIX anchorages are located between
the seatback and the seat cushion of the rear seat left and right outboard
seating positions, indicated by the

WARNING
•To avoid severe personal injury ordeath caused by deploying air bagsin a collision, the driver should sitas far back from the steeringwheel air bag as possible (at least250 mm (10 inches) away). Thefront passengers should alwaysmove their seats as far back aspossible and sit back in their seat.
•Air bags inflate instantly in theevent of a collision, and passen‐gers may be injured by the air bagexpansion force if they are not in aproper position.
•Air bag inflation may cause injuriesincluding facial or bodily abrasions,injuries from broken glasses orburns.
Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make a
loud noise and they leave smoke and
powder in the air inside of the vehicle. This is normal and is a result of the ig‐
nition of the air bag inflator. After the
air bag inflates, you may feel substan‐ tial discomfort in breathing due to the
contact of your chest with both the
seat belt and the air bag, as well as from breathing the smoke and powder.
Open your doors and/or windows assoon as possible after the impact in or‐der to reduce discomfort and preventprolonged exposure to smoke and pow‐der.
Though the smoke and powder are non-toxic, they may cause irritation to
the skin (eyes, nose and throat, etc). If
this is the case, wash and rinse with cold water immediately and consult a
doctor if the symptom persists.
WARNING
When the air bags deploy, the airbag related parts in the steeringwheel, instrument panel, front seatsand/or in both sides of the roof rails

above the front and rear doors arevery hot. To prevent injury, do nottouch the air bag storage area’s in‐ternal components immediately af‐ter an air bag has inflated.

The passenger’s front air bag OFF indi‐
cator also comes on when the passeng‐ er’s front air bag ON/OFF switch is set
to the OFF position and goes off when
the passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch is set to the ON position.
CAUTION
If the passenger’s front air bagON/OFF switch malfunctions, thepassenger’s front air bag OFF indica‐tor will not illuminate (the passeng‐er's front air bag ON indicator comeson and goes off after approximately60 seconds) and the passenger’sfront air bag will inflate in a frontalimpact even if the passenger’s frontair bag ON/OFF switch is set to theOFF position.If this occurs, we recommend thatthe passenger’s front air bagON/OFF switch and the SRS air bagsystem be inspected by an author‐ized Kia dealer.
SRS components and functions
The SRS consists of the following com‐
ponents: 1. Driver's front air bag module
2. Passenger's front air bag module
3. Side air bag modules
4. Curtain air bag modules
5. Retractor pre-tensioner assem‐

Side impact sensors *
10. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF indicator (front passenger's seat
only) *
11. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch *
12. Side pressure sensors
The SRSCM continually monitors all SRS
components while the Engine Start/
Stop button is ON to determine if a crash impact is severe enough to re‐
quire air bag deployment or pretension‐ er seat belt deployment.
The SRS air bag warning light on the in‐
strument panel will illuminate for about 6 seconds after the Engine Start/Stop
button is set to the ON position, after
which the SRS air bag warning light should go out.
WARNING
If any of the following conditions oc‐curs, this indicates a malfunction ofthe SRS. We recommend that the

A fully inflated air bag, in combination
with a properly worn seat belt, slows the driver's or the passenger's forward
motion, reducing the risk of head and
chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag im‐ mediately starts deflating, enabling the
driver to maintain forward visibility and
the ability to steer or operate other controls.
