Knowing Your Vehicle3-8WindowsManual Windows (If Equipped)Use the window crank to open and close each window.
Power Windows (If Equipped)The ignition switch must be in the ON position for
power windows to operate. Each door has a power
window switch that controls that door’s window.
However, the driver has a power window lock switch
which can cancel the operation of the three passenger
window switches.
✻ ✻
NOTICE
To prevent the power window fuse from malfunc-
tioning and the power window system from being
damaged, do not open or close more than two
windows at the same time.

NOTICEIf you notice buffeting and pulsation (wind shock)
with either side window open, you should open
the opposite window slightly to reduce the condi-
tion.

Knowing Your Vehicle3-10 Power Window Lock Switch FeatureThe driver can disable the power window switches on
all passenger doors by depressing the power window
lock switch located on the driver’s door to ON. When
the power window lock switch is ON, only the driver’s
master control can operate the windows.

WARNING - Passengers
• Keep the power window lock switch on the
driver’s door in the ON (depressed) position
except when someone is operating a passen-
ger door window. Serious injury can result
from unintentional window operation, espe-
cially to children.
 Always double check to make sure all arms,
hands, and other obstructions are safely out
of the way before closing a window.✻ ✻
NOTICE
If you experience buffeting and pulsation (wind
shock) with either side window open, you should
open the opposite window slightly to reduce the
condition.

Adjusting the Front Seatback Recliner
To recline the seatback;
1. Lean forward slightly and lift up on the seatback
recline lever located on the outside of the seat,
toward the rear.
2. Lean back on the seat and adjust the back of the seat
to the position you desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seatback is
located in place. (The lever MUST return to its orig-
inal position for the seatback to lock.)
WARNING - Passengers
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap por-
tion of the lap/shoulder belt, and potentially
suffering serious personal injury or death in
the event of a collision, do not use the front
seatback in a reclined position while the vehi-
cle is in motion. If a seat is reclined, the occu-
pant’s hip could slide under or out of the lap
portion of the lap/shoulder belt during a colli-
sion. If that occurs, the occupant may no
longer be properly restrained, and the safety
belt could apply restraint forces to the unpro-
tected abdomen resulting in serious personal
injury or death. Therefore, keep the seatbacks
in a comfortably upright position whenever the
vehicle is in motion.

Knowing Your Vehicle3-20Safety BeltsPretensioner Seat Belt (If Equipped)Your vehicle is equipped with driver’s and front pas-
senger’s pretensioner seat belts. The purpose of the
pre-tensioner is to make sure that the seat belts fit
tightly against the occupant’s body in certain frontal
collisions.
The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated together
with the airbags, where the frontal collision is severe
enough.
The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as
an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) type of seat
belt. When the ignition switch is in the "ON" position
and if the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant
tries to lean forward too quickly, the seat belt retractor
will lock into position. However, in certain frontal col-
lisions, the pretensioner will activate and pull the seat
belt into tighter contact against the occupant's body.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists mainly of
the following components.
Their locations are shown in the illustration.
1. SRS airbag warning light

2. Seatbelt pre-tensioner assembly
3. SRS control module.
WARNING
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-ten-
sioner seat belt :
 The seat belt must be worn correctly.
 The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct
position.✻ ✻
NOTICE
 Both the driver's and front passenger's pre-ten-
sioner seat belts will be activated in certain
frontal collisions. The pre-tnesioner seat belts
can be activated, where the frontal collision is
severe enough, together with the airbag. The
pretensioners will be activated under these con-
ditions even if there is no one on the seat at the
time of the collision.
 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 compartments and they are not haz-
ardous. (Continued)
(Continued)
 Although it is harmless, the fine dust may
cause skin irritation and should not be breathed
for prolonged periods. Wash your hands and
face thoroughly after an accident in which the
pretensioner seat belts were activated.
CAUTION
• Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag
is connected with pre-tensioner seat blet, the SRS
airbag warning light on the instrument panel
will illuminate for approximately 6 seconds after
the ignition key has been turned to the “ON”
positions, and then it should be turned off.
 If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not working
properly, this warning light will illuminate even
of there is no malfunction of SRS airbag system.
If the SRS airbag warning light does not illumi-
nate when the ignition key is turned to “ON”, or
if it remains illuminated after illuminating for
approximately 6 seconds, or if it illuminates
while the vehicle is being driven, please have an
Authorized Kia Dealer inspect the pre-tension-
er seat belt or SRS airbag system as soon as
possible.
