Installing a child restraint system
by lap/shoulder belt
To install a child restraint system on
the outboard or center rear seats, do
the following:
1. Place the child restraint system in the seat and route the lap/shoul- der belt around or through the
restraint, following the restraint
manufacturer’s instructions. Be
sure the seat belt webbing is nottwisted. 2. Fasten the lap/shoulder belt latch
into the buckle. Listen for the dis-
tinct “click” sound.Position the release button so that it
is easy to access in case of an emer-gency.
3. Buckle the seat belt and allow the seat belt to take up any slack. After
installation of the child restraint
system, try to move it in all direc-
tions to be sure the child restraintsystem is securely installed.
If you need to tighten the belt, pull
more webbing toward the retractor.
When you unbuckle the seat belt and
allow it to retract, the retractor will
automatically revert back to its nor-mal seated passenger emergency
locking usage condition.

Securing a child restraint seat
with “Tether Anchor” system
Child restraint hook holders are
located on the package tray. 1. Route the child restraint seat strap
over the seatback.
For vehicles with adjustable head-
rest, route the tether strap under
the headrest and between the
headrest posts, otherwise route
the tether strap over the top of the
seatback.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the appropriate child restrainthook holder and tighten to secure
the child restraint seat.
OKH032049
OKH032050
WARNING - Tether strap
Never mount more than one
child restraint to a single tether
or to a single lower anchorage
point. The increased load
caused by multiple seats may
cause the tethers or anchorage
points to break, causing serious
injury or death.
WARNING
A child can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if the
child restraint is not properly
anchored to the car and the
child is not properly restrained
in the child restraint. Always fol-
low the child seat manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation
and use.

Securing a child restraint systemwith “ISOFIX” system and “Tether Anchorage” system
ISOFIX is a standardised method of fitting child seats that eliminates theneed to use the standard adult seat
belt to secure the seat in the vehicle.
This enables a much more secure
and positive location with the added
benefit of easier and quicker installa-tion. An ISOFIX-seat can only be installed
if it has vehicle-specific approval inaccordance with the requirements ofECE-R44.
WARNING - Child
restraint check
Check that the child restraint
system is secure by pushing
and pulling it in different direc-
tions. Incorrectly fitted child
restraints may swing, twist, tipor separate causing death or
serious injury.WARNING
- Child restraint anchorage
Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand
only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used
for adult seat belts or har-
nesses or for attaching otheritems or equipment to the
vehicle.
The tether strap may not work properly if attached some-where other than the correct
tether anchor.

There is a child restraint symbol
located on the lower portion of each
side of the rear seatbacks. Thesesymbols indicate the position of the
lower anchors for child restraints soequipped. On each side of the rear seat,
between the cushion and backrest,are located a pair of ISOFIX anchor-age points together with a top tethermounting on the shelf behind the
rear seats. During the installation,the seat has to be engaged at the
anchorage-points in a way you can
hear it clicking (check by pulling!)
and has to be fixed with the Top
Tether-anchor on the belonging point
on the shelf behind rear seats. The installing and the use of a child-seat has to be done according to the
installing-manual, which is added tothe ISOFIX-seat.
WARNING
Install the child restraint seat
fully rearward against the seat-
back with the seatback in a ver-
tical position, not reclined.
WARNING
When using the vehicle's "ISOFIX" system to install a
child restraint system in the
rear seat, all unused vehicle
rear seat belt metal latch
plates or tabs must be latched
securely in their seat belt
buckles and the seat belt web-
bing must be retracted behind
the child restraint to prevent
the child from reaching andtaking hold of unretracted
seat belts. Unlatched metal
latch plates or tabs may allow
the child to reach the unre-
tracted seat belts which mayresult in strangulation and a
serious injury or death to the
child in the child restraint.
Do not place anything around the lower anchors. Also makesure that the seat belt is not
caught in the lower anchors.

To secure the child restraint seat
1. To engage the child restraint seatto the ISOFIX anchor, insert the
child restraint seat latch into the
ISOFIX anchor. Listen for the audi-
ble “click” sound.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the child restraint hook holder and
tighten to secure the seat. (Refer
to the previous page.)
WARNING
Do not install a child restraint seat at the center of the rear
seat using the vehicle's ISOFIX
anchors. The ISOFIX anchors
are only provided for the left
and right outboard rear seating
positions. Do not misuse the
ISOFIX anchors by attempting
to attach a child restraint seat
in the middle of the rear seat to
the ISOFIX anchors. In a crash,
the child restraint seat ISOFIX
attachments may not be strong
enough to secure the child
restraint seat properly in the
center of the rear seat and may
break, causing serious injuryor death.
Do not mount more than one child restraint to a child
restraint lower anchorage
point. The improper increased
load may cause the anchorage
points or tether anchor to
break, causing serious injuryor death.
(Continued)(Continued)
Attach the ISOFIX or ISOFIX-compatible child restraint seat
only to the appropriate loca-
tions shown in the illustration.
Always follow the installation and use instructions provided
by the manufacturer of the
child restraint.
CAUTION
Do not allow the rear seat belt
webbing to get scratched orpinched by the ISOFIX-seat latch and ISOFIX anchor duringthe installation.

AIR BAG - SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
OKH032079
❈
The actual air bags in the vehicle may differ from the illustration.
WARNING
Even in vehicles with air bags, you and your passengers
must always wear the safety
belts provided in order to min-
imize the risk and severity of
injury in the event of a colli-
sion or rollover.
SRS and pretensioners con- tain explosive chemicals.
If scraping a vehicle without
removing SRS and preten-
sioners from a vehicle, it may
cause fire. Before scraping a
vehicle, we recommend that
you contact an authorized Kia
dealer.
Keep the SRS parts and wirings away from water or any
liquid. If the SRS components
are inoperative due to expo-
sure to water or liquids, it may
cause fire or severe injury.

How does the air bag system operate
Air bags are activated (able to
inflate if necessary) only when the
engine start/stop button is turned
to the ON or START position.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of a serious frontal collisionor side collision 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 thesensors produce an electronic
deployment/ inflation signal.
Air bag deployment depends on a number of factors including vehiclespeed, angles of impact and the
density and stiffness of the vehi-
cles or objects which your vehicle
hits in the collision. The determin-
ing 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 anaccident.
It is much more likely that you will simply see the deflated air bags
hanging out of their storage com-
partments after the collision.
In order to help provide protection in a severe collision, the air bags
must inflate rapidly. The speed ofair bag inflation is a consequence
of the extremely short time inwhich a collision occurs and the
need to inflate the air bag between
the occupant and the vehicle struc-
tures before the occupant impacts
those structures. This speed of
inflation reduces the risk of serious
or life-threatening injuries in a
severe collision and is thus a nec-
essary 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 inflationspeed 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.
WARNING
To avoid severe personal injury or death caused by
deploying air bags in a colli-
sion, the driver should sit as
far back from the steering
wheel air bag as possible (at
least 250 mm (10 inches)
away). The front passengers
should always move their
seats as far back as possible
and sit back in their seat.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of collision, and passen-
gers may be injured by the air
bag expansion force if they are
not in a proper position.
Air bag inflation may cause injuries including facial or
bodily abrasions, injuries
from broken glasses or burns.

Safety features of your vehicle
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 ignition of the air bag inflator.
After the air bag inflates, you may
feel substantial discomfort in breath-
ing due to the contact of your chestwith both the seat belt and the air
bag, as well as from breathing the
smoke and powder.Open your
doors and/or windows as soon as
possible after impact in order to
reduce discomfort and prevent
prolonged exposure to the smoke
and powder.
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 immediatelyand consult a doctor if the symptom
persists.
Do not install a child restraint on
the front passenger’s seat.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat. If the air bag deploys, it would
impact the rear-facing child restraint,
causing serious or fatal injury.
WARNING
When the air bags deploy, the
air bag related parts in thesteering wheel and/or instru-ment 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
air bag storage area’s internal
components immediately after
an air bag has inflated.
