Battery replacementTransmitter uses a 3 volt lithium bat-
tery which will normally last for sever-
al years. When replacement is neces-
sary, use the following procedure.1. Insert a slim tool into the slot and
gently pry open the transmitter
center cover (
➀).
2. Replace the battery with new one. When replacing the battery, make
sure the battery positive “+” sym-
bol faces up (type A) or faces
down (type B) as indicated in the
illustration.
3. Install the battery in the reverse order of removal.
✽ ✽NOTICEThe keyless entry system transmit-
ter is designed to give you years of
troublefree use, however it can mal-
function if exposed to moisture or
static electricity. If you are unsure
how to use your transmitter or
replace the battery, contact an
authorized Kia dealer. For replacement transmitters, see an
Authorized Kia Dealer for reprogram-
ming.

CAUTION
• Using the wrong battery can
cause the transmitter to mal-
function. Be sure to use the
correct battery.
 To avoid damaging the trans- mitter, don't drop it, get it wet,
or expose it to heat or sun-
light.

Power windows (if equipped)
The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to oper-
ate. Each door has a power window
switch that controls that door’s win-
dow. However, the driver has a power
window lock switch which can block
the operation of passenger windows.
If you notice buffeting and pulsation
(wind shock) with either side window
open, you should open the opposite
window slightly to reduce the condi-
tion.✽ ✽
NOTICETo prevent the power window sys-
tem from the possibility of damage,
do not open or close two windows at
the same time. This will also ensure
the longevity of the fuse.
Manual windows (if equipped)Use the window crank to open and
close each window.
CAUTION
 Make sure heads and hands
are safely out of the way
before closing a window.
 Do not allow children to play with the power windows. Keep
the driver’s door power win-
dow lock switch in the LOCK
position (depressed). Serious
injury can result from uninten-
tional window operation by
the child.
 Do not extend face or arms outside through the window
opening while driving.
 Always double check to make sure all arms, hands and other
obstructions are safely out of
the way before closing a win-
dow.

To recline the seatback:
1. Lean forward slightly and lift up on
the seatback recline lever located
on the outside of the seat, at the
rear.
2. Carefully lean back on the seat and adjust the seatback to the
position you desire. 3. Release the lever and make sure

1LDA2029
WARNING
Driving or riding in a vehicle
with a front seatback reclined
could lead to serious or fatal
injury in an accident. If a front
seat is reclined during an acci-
dent, the occupant’s hips may
slide under the lap portion of
the safety belt applying great
force to the unprotected
abdomen or neck. Serious or
fatal internal injuries could
result. Keep the seatbacks in a
comfortably upright position
whenever the vehicle is in
motion.

Adjusting the height up and down
The headrest not only provides com-
fort for the driver and passengers,
but also helps to protect the head
and neck in the event of a collision.
To raise the headrest, pull it up to the
desired position (
➀). To lower the
headrest, push and hold the release
button (
➁) on the headrest support
and lower the headrest to the desired
position (➂). For best protection,
adjust the headrest so its center is as
high as your ears. Also adjust the
headrest so its distance from the
head is as wide as your fist.
WARNING
Riding in a vehicle with a front
seatback reclined could lead to
serious or fatal injury in an acci-
dent. If a front seat is reclined,
the occupant’s hips may slide
under the lap portion of the
safety belt applying great force
to the unprotected abdomen or
neck. Serious or fatal internal
injuries could result. Keep the
seatbacks in a comfortably
upright position whenever the
vehicle is in motion.

Pre-tensioner seat beltYour vehicle is equipped with driver’s
and front passenger’s pre-tensioner
seat belts. The purpose of the pre-
tensioner is to make sure that the
seat belts fit tightly against the occu-
pant’s body in certain frontal colli-
sions. The pre-tensioner seat belts
will activate together with the
airbags, where the frontal collision is
severe enough.The seat belt pre-tensioner system
consists mainly of the following com-
ponents. Their locations are shown in
the illustration.
➀
SRS airbag warning light
➁
Seatbelt pre-tensioner assembly
➂
SRS airbag control module
SAFETY BELTS
2GHB3002
CAUTION
The pre-tensioner seat belt is
installed at the front seats, and
the sensor is equipped inside
the buckle, where presence of
passenger is sensed by the fas-
tening of the seat belts.
Therefore, pre-tensioner will not
activate if the passenger is not
fastened with the seat belts.
Likewise, it will activate if buck-
led even without a passenger in
the seat. Pre-tensioner seat belt
is designed to activate when the
seatbelt is in use. To ensure the
pretensioner seatbelts activate
in event of a possible seatbelt
buckle switch malfunction, the
system is designed to activate
regardless of whether a seat
belt is in use or if no seat belt
use is detected within 6 sec-
onds of turning the ignition
switch ON.

WARNING
To obtain maximum benefit from
a pre-tensioner seat belt:
 The seat belt must be worn
correctly.
 The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position.
CAUTION
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 and are not toxic.
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 airbags
and/or pre-tensioner seat belts
were activated.
CAUTION
 Because the sensor that acti-vates the SRS airbag is con-
nected with pre-tensioner seat
belt, the SRS airbag warning
light on the instrument panel
will blink or illuminate for
approximately 6 seconds after
the ignition key has been
turned to the “ON” position,
then the light should go off.
 If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, this
warning light will illuminate
even if there is no malfunction
of SRS airbag system. If the
SRS airbag warning light does
not illuminate when the igni-
tion key is turned to “ON” , or
if it remains illuminated after
blinking or illuminating for
approximately 6 seconds, or if
it illuminates while the vehicle
is being driven, please have
an authorized Kia dealer
inspect the pre-tensioner seat
belt or SRS airbag system as
soon as possible.
