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.
The power windows can be operated
for approximately 30 seconds after
the ignition key is removed or turned
to the ACC or LOCK position.
However, if the front doors are
opened, the power windows cannot
be operated even within the 30 sec-
onds after the ignition key removal.✽ ✽NOTICE
While driving with the rear windows
down or with the sunroof (if
equipped) in an open (or partially
open) position, your vehicle may
demonstrate a wind buffeting or
pulsation noise. This noise is a nor-
mal occurrence and can be reduced
or eliminated by taking the follow-
ing actions. If the noise occurs with
one or both of the rear windows
down, partially lower both front
windows approximately one inch. If
you experience the noise with the
sunroof open, slightly reduce the
size of the sunroof opening.
✽ ✽NOTICE
• To prevent the power window sys-
tem from the possibility of dam-
age, do not open or close two win-
dows at the same time. This will
also ensure the longevity of the
fuse. (Continued)(Continued)
• Never try to operate the main
switch on the driver's door and the
individual door window switch in
opposing directions at the same
time. If this is done, the window
will stop and cannot be opened or
closed.
CAUTION - Windows
Always double check to make
sure all arms, hands, head andother obstructions are safelyout of the way before closing awindow.
Do not allow children to play with the power windows. Keepthe driver’s door power win-dow lock switch in the LOCKposition (depressed). Seriousinjury can result from uninten-tional window operation bythe child.
Do not extend face or arms outside through the windowopening while driving.

Side airbag (if equipped)
Side airbags are stored in the left
side of the driver’s seat, right side of
the front passenger’s seat.
If airbag inflation conditions are met
(side collision), they will inflate.
Curtain airbag (if equipped)
Curtain airbags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect
the heads of the front seat occupants
and the rear outboard seat occu-
pants in certain side impact colli-
sions.
WARNING- Seat covers,
damage and modifications
Do not use any accessory seat covers for a vehicle
equipped with side airbags.
Use of seat covers could inter-
fere with side airbag deploy-
ment.
If seat is damaged, have the
vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized Kia dealer. Inform them
that your vehicle is equipped
with side airbags.
Do not make modifications or additions to the seats since
injury may result in due to the
malfunction of the airbag sys-
tem.

Noise and smoke
When the airbags inflate, they make
a loud noise and they leave smoke
and powder in the air inside of the
vehicle. This is normal. After the
airbag inflates, you may feel sub-
stantial discomfort in breathing due
to the contact of your chest to both
the safety belt and the airbag, as well
as from breathing the smoke and
powder. We strongly urge you to
open your doors and/or windows
as soon as possible after impact
in order to reduce discomfort and
prevent prolonged exposure to
the smoke and powder.
Though the smoke and powder are
non-toxic, they may cause irritation
(eyes, nose and throat etc). Wash
and rinse with cold water immediate-
ly and consult the doctor if the symp-
tom persists.WARNING - Seated posi-
tioning
Driver should sit as far back from the steering wheel airbag
as possible to reduce the risk
of injury or death in a collision
(at least 250 mm (10 inches)
away). The front passenger
should always move their seat
as far back as possible and sit
back in their seat.
Airbags inflate instantly in an event of collision and passen-
gers may be injured by the
airbag expansion force if they
are too close to the dash-
board.
Airbag inflation may cause injuries which normally
include facial or bodily abra-
sions, injuries from broken
eyeglasses or burns from the
airbag gases.WARNING- Hot airbag
parts
When the airbags deploy, the
airbag related parts in steering
wheel and/or instrument panel
and/or in both sides of the roof
rails above the front and rear
doors are very hot. To prevent
injury, do not touch the airbag
storage area’s internal compo-
nents immediately after an
airbag has inflated.

or roofs, or installing a car audio

nance performed by an authorized

equipped vehicle. Always refer
such activities to a qualified profes-
sional.

required by the Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS)
are attached to alert driver and pas-
sengers of potential risk of airbag
system. Note that these government warn-
ings focus on the risk to children, Kia
also wants you to be aware of the
risks which adults are exposed to.
Those have been described in previ-

ROOF RACK (IF EQUIPPED)
1KMA2177
CAUTION
When carrying cargo on the
roof rack, take the necessaryprecautions to make sure thecargo does not damage theroof of the vehicle.
When carrying large objects on the roof rack, make surethey do not exceed the overallroof length or width.
WARNING
The following specification is the maximum weight that can
be loaded onto the roof rack.
Distribute the load as evenly as
possible across the roof rack
and secure the load firmly.
Loading cargo or luggage
above specification on the roof
rack may damage your vehicle.
(Continued)
(Continued)
The vehicle center of gravitywill be higher when items are
loaded onto the roof rack.
Avoid sudden starts, braking,
sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers
or high speeds that may result
in loss of vehicle control or
rollover causing an accident.
Always drive slowly and turn corners carefully when carrying
items on the roof rack. Severe
wind updrafts, caused by pass-
ing vehicles or natural causes,
can cause sudden upward
pressure on items loaded on
the roof rack. This is especially
true when carrying large, flat
items such as wood panels or
mattresses. This could cause
the items to fall off the roof rack
and cause damage to your vehi-
cle or others around you.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo while driving, check fre-
quently before or while driving
to make sure the items on the
roof rack are securely fastened.
