Headrest (for front seat)The driver's and front passenger's
seats are equipped with a headrest
for the occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides com-
fort for the driver and front passenger,
but also helps protect the head and
neck in the event of a rear collision.
OHM038048N
WARNING
 For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the head-
rest 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 people'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 cush-
ion that holds the body away
from the seatback is not rec-
ommended.
 Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed.
Severe injury to the occu-
pants may occur in the event
of an accident. Headrests may
provide protection against
neck injuries when properly
adjusted.
 Do not adjust the headrest position of the driver’s seat
while the vehicle is in motion.

3Active headrest
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 warmer (if equipped)The seat warmer 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
A gap between the seat and the
headrest release button may
appear when sitting on the seat
or when you push or pull the
seat. Be careful not to get your
finger, etc. caught in the gap.

Seat belt warning (for driver’s seat)The driver's seat belt warning light
and chime will activate pursuant to
the following table when the ignition
switch is in "ON" position.
1GQA2083
(Continued)
It is essential to replace the
entire assembly after it has been
worn in a severe impact even if
damage to the assembly is not
obvious.
Belts should not be worn with
straps twisted. Each belt assem-
bly must only be used by one
occupant; it is dangerous to put
a belt around a child being car-
ried on the occupant's lap.
WARNING
 No modifications or additions
should be made by the user
which will either prevent the
seat belt adjusting devices
from operating to remove
slack, or prevent the seat belt
assembly from being adjusted
to remove slack.
 When you fasten the seat belt, be careful not to latch the seat
belt in buckles of other seat. It's
very dangerous and you may
not be protected by the seat
belt properly.
 Do not unfasten the seat belt and do not fasten and unfasten
the seat belt repeatedly while
driving. This could result in
loss of control, and an accident
causing death, serious injury,
or property damage.
 When fastening the seat belt, make sure that the seat belt
does not pass over objects that
are hard or can break easily.
 Make sure there is nothing in the buckle. The seat belt may
not be fastened securely.

proper position. Please read
and follow all of the important
information and precautions
about your vehicle’s occupant
safety features – including
seat belts and air bags – that
are provided in this manual.
2. Be sure you and your passen- gers always wear seat belts
properly.
✽ ✽NOTICE• Both the driver's and front pas-
senger's seat belt pre-tensioner
system may be activated not only
in certain frontal collision but also
in certain side collision or rollover,
if the vehicle is equipped with a

• 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 compartment.
These are normal operating condi-
tions and are not hazardous.
• Although it is harmless, the fine dust may cause skin irritation and
should not be breathed for pro-
longed periods. Wash all exposed
skin areas thoroughly after an
accident in which the pre-tension-
er seat belts were activated.
• Because the sensor that activates the SRS air bag is connected with
the pre-tensioner seat belt, the
SRS air bag warning light on
the instrument panel will illumi-
nate for approximately 6 seconds
after the ignition switch has been
turned to the ON position, and
then it should turn off.
