Air bags can only be used
once – we recommend that
the system be replaced by an
authorized Kia dealer.
The SRS is designed to deploy the front air bags only
when an impact is sufficiently
severe. Additionally, the air
bags will only deploy once.
Seat belts must be worn at alltimes.
Front air bags are not intend- ed to deploy in side-impact,
rear-impact or rollover crash-
es. In addition, front air bags
will not deploy in frontal
crashes below the deploy-ment threshold.
A child restraint system must never be placed in the front
seat. The infant or child could
be severely injured or killed
by an air bag deployment incase of an accident.
(Continued)(Continued)
Children age 12 and undermust always be properly restrained in the rear seat.
Never allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat. If a
child over 12 must be seated
in the front seat, he or she
must be properly belted and
the seat should be moved as
far back as possible.
For maximum safety protec- tion in all types of crashes, all
occupants including the driv-
er should always wear theirseat belts whether or not an
air bag is also provided attheir seating position to mini-
mize the risk of severe injury
or death in the event of acrash. Do not sit or lean unnecessar-
ily close to the air bag while
the vehicle is in motion.
(Continued)(Continued)
Sitting improperly or out ofposition can result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. Alloccupants should sit upright
with the seat back in an
upright position, centered onthe seat cushion with their
seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and their feet on the
floor until the vehicle is parked
and the Engine Start/Stop but-ton is in the OFF position.
The SRS air bag system must deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If anoccupant is out of positionbecause of not wearing a seat
belt, the air bag may forcefullycontact the occupant causingserious or fatal injuries.

WARNING
Do not hang heavy items on the coat hooks for safety rea- sons.
In order for side and curtain air bags to provide the best
protection, front seat occu-
pants and outboard rear occu-pants should sit in an uprightposition with the seat belts
properly fastened. Importantly,
children should sit in a proper
child restraint system in therear seat.
When children are seated in the rear outboard seats, they
must be seated in the proper
child restraint system. Make
sure to position the child
restraint system as far away
from the door side as possi-
ble, and secure the child
restraint system in a lockedposition.

Do not allow the passengersto lean their heads or bodies
onto doors, put their arms on
the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place
objects between the doors
and passengers when theyare seated on seats equipped
with side and/or curtain air
bags.

Never try to open or repair anycomponents of the side curtain

Additional safety precautions
All occupants should sit upright,fully back in their seats with their
seat belts on and their feet on the
floor.
Passengers should not move
out of or change seats while the
vehicle is moving. A passenger
who is not wearing a seat belt dur-
ing a crash or emergency stop can
be thrown against the inside of the
vehicle, against other occupants,
or out of the vehicle.
Each seat belt is designed torestrain one occupant. If more
than one person uses the same
seat belt, they could be seriouslyinjured or killed in a collision.
Do not use any accessories onseat belts. Devices claiming to
improve occupant comfort or repo-sition the seat belt can reduce the
protection provided by the seat belt
and increase the chance of serious
injury in a crash.
Passengers should not place
hard or sharp objects between
themselves and the air bags.
Carrying hard or sharp objects on
your lap or in your mouth can result
in injuries if an air bag inflates.
Keep occupants away from the
air bag covers. All occupants
should sit upright, fully back in theirseats with their seat belts on and
their feet on the floor. If occupants
are too close to the air bag covers,
they could be injured if the air bags
inflate.
Do not attach or place objects
on or near the air bag covers.
Any object attached to or placed
on the front or side air bag covers
could interfere with the proper
operation of the air bags.
Do not modify the front seats.Modification of the front seats
could interfere with the operation of
the supplemental restraint systemsensing components or side air
bags.
Do not place items under the
front seats. Placing items under
the front seats could interfere with
the operation of the supplemental
restraint system sensing compo-
nents and wiring harnesses.
Never hold an infant or child on
your lap. The infant or child could
be seriously injured or killed in the
event of a crash. All infants and
children should be properly
restrained in appropriate child
safety seats or seat belts in therear seat.
