Safety features of your vehicle
Seat height (for driver’s seat)Pull the front portion of the control switch
up to raise or press down to lower the
front part of the seat cushion. Pull the
rear portion of the control switch up to
raise or press down to lower the rear part
of the seat cushion. Release the switch
once the seat reaches the desired posi-
tion.
Lumbar support (for driver’s seat)The lumbar support can be adjusted by
pressing the button.
C010104AHMHeadrestThe driver's and front passenger's seats
are equipped with a headrest for the
occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides comfort
for the driver and front passenger, but
also helps protect the head and neck in
the event of a rear collision.

Adjusting the height up and down
To raise the headrest, pull it up to the
desired position (1). To lower the head-
rest, push and hold the release button (2)
on the headrest support and lower the
headrest to the desired position (3).Adjusting the angle (if equipped)
The headrest angle may be adjusted by
pulling or pushing the lower part of the
headrest.
Adjust the headrest so that it properly
supports the head and neck.
WARNING
 For maximum effectiveness in
case of an accident, the headrest
should be adjusted so the middle
of the headrest is at the same
height of the center of gravity of
an occupant's head. Generally,
the center of gravity of most peo-
ple's head is similar with the
height of the top of their eyes.
Also, adjust the headrest as close
to your head as possible. For this
reason, the use of a cushion that
holds the body away from the
seatback is not recommended.
 Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed. Severe
injury to the occupants may
occur in the event of an accident.
Headrests may provide protec-
tion against neck injuries when
properly adjusted.
 Do not adjust the headrest posi- tion of the driver’s seat while the
vehicle is in motion.

CAUTION
Excessive pulling or pushing maydamage the headrest.

Removal (except active headrest)
To remove the headrest, raise it as far as
it can go then press the release button
(1) while pulling the headrest up (2).
To reinstall the headrest, put the head-
rest poles (3) into the holes while press-
ing the release button (1). Then adjust it
to the appropriate height.Active headrest (if equipped)
The active headrest is designed to move
forward and upward during a rear impact.
This helps prevent the driver's and front
passenger’s heads from moving backward
and thus helps minimize neck injuries.
For your safety, the active headrest can’t
be removed. If there is any problem with
the active headrest, take your vehicle to
an authorized KIA dealer and have the
system checked.
Seat heater (if equipped)The seat heater is provided to warm the
front seats during cold weather. With the
ignition switch in the ON position, push
either of the switches to warm the driver's
seat or the front passenger's seat.

WARNING
Make sure the headrest locks in
position after adjusting it to proper-
ly protect the occupants.

WARNING
A gap between the seat and the
headrest release button may
appear when seating on the seat or
when you push or pull the seat. Be
careful not to get your finger, etc.

Folding the rear seatThe rear seatbacks can be folded to facil-
itate carrying long items or to increase
the luggage capacity of the vehicle.2nd row seat
1. Insert the rear seat belt buckle in the
pocket (if equipped) between the rear
seatback and cushion, and insert the
rear seat belt webbing into the guide to
prevent the seat belt from being dam-
aged.
2. Set the front seatback to the upright position and if necessary, slide the
front seat forward.
3. Lower the rear headrests to the lowest position.
4. Pull on the seatback folding lever, thenfold the seat toward the front of the
vehicle.
5. When you return the seatback to its upright position, always be sure it has
locked into position by pushing on the
top of the seatback.
WARNING
The purpose of the fold-down rear
seatbacks is to allow you to carry
longer objects that could not be
accommodated in the cargo area.
Never allow passengers sit on top
of the folded down seatback while
the vehicle is moving. This is not a
proper seating position and no seat
belts are available for use.
Ignoring this warning could result
in serious injury or death in case of
an accident or sudden stop.
Objects carried on the folded down
seatback should not extend higher
than the top of the front seatbacks.
Doing this could allow cargo to
slide forward and cause injury or
damage during sudden stops.

position. Double folding
(2nd row right seat, if equipped)
Pull the double folding strap on the right
rear seatback, then pull up the rear of the
portion seat cushion toward the front of
the vehicle. When you return the seat
cushion to its original position, always be
sure it has locked into position by pulling
the rear portion of the seat cushion.
WARNING
When you return the rear seatback
to its upright position after being
folded down:
Be careful not to damage the seat
belt webbing or buckle. Do not
allow the seat belt webbing or
buckle to get caught or pinched in
the rear seat. Ensure that the seat-
back is completely locked into its
upright position by pushing on the
top of the seatback. Otherwise, in
an accident or sudden stop, the
seat could fold down and allow
cargo to enter the passenger com-
partment, which could result in
serious injury or death.
