C040600AAM-EU
Side impact air bag
Your vehicle is equipped with a side
impact air bag in each front seat.
(Continued)
The SRS air bag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If an
occupant is out of position
because of not wearing a seat
belt, the air bag may forcefully
contact the occupant causing
serious or fatal injuries.
OSL030039
OLM032310N
(Continued)
For maximum safety protec-tion in all types of crashes, all
occupants including the driv-
er should always wear their
seat belts whether or not an
air bag is also provided at
their seating position to mini-
mize the risk of severe injury
or death in the event of a
crash. Do not sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the air
bag while the vehicle is in
motion.
Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. All
occupants should sit upright
with the seat back in an
upright position, centered on
the seat cushion with their
seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and their feet on the
floor until the vehicle is
parked and the ignition key is
removed or the engine is shut
off.

Immobilizer system
(if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with
an electronic engine immobilizer sys-
tem to reduce the risk of unautho-
rized vehicle use.
Your immobilizer system is com-
prised of a small transponder in the
ignition key and electronic devices
inside the vehicle.
With the immobilizer system, when-
ever you insert your ignition key into
the ignition switch and turn it to ON,
it checks and determines and verifies
that the ignition key is valid.
If the key is determined to be valid,
the engine will start.
If the key is determined to be invalid,
the engine will not start.
WARNING - Ignition key(smart key)
Leaving children unattended in
a vehicle with the Ignition key
(smart key) is dangerous even if
the key is not in the ignition
switch or start button is ACC or
ON position. Children copy
adults and they could place the
key in the ignition switch or
press the start button. The
Ignition key (smart key) would
enable children to operate
power windows or other con-
trols, or even make the vehicle
move, which could result in
serious bodily injury or even
death. Never leave the keys in
your vehicle with unsupervised
children, when the engine is
running.
WARNING
Use only Kia original parts for
the ignition key in your vehicle.
If an aftermarket key is used,
the ignition switch may not
return to ON after START. If this
happens, the starter will contin-
ue to operate causing damage
to the starter motor and possi-
ble fire due to excessive current
in the wiring.

Features of your vehicle
To activate the immobilizer sys-tem:
Turn the ignition key to the OFF posi-
tion. The immobilizer system acti-
vates automatically. Without a valid
ignition key for your vehicle, the
engine will not start.
To deactivate the immobilizersystem:
Insert the ignition key into the key
cylinder and turn it to the ON posi-
tion.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
When starting the engine, do not use
the key with other immobilizer keys
around. Otherwise the engine may
not start or may stop soon after it
starts. Keep each key separately in
order to avoid a starting malfunc-
tion.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If you need additional keys or lose
your keys, consult an authorized Kia
dealer.
CAUTION
The transponder in your ignition
key is an important part of theimmobilizer system. It isdesigned to give years of trou-ble-free service, however youshould avoid exposure to mois-ture, static electricity and roughhandling. Immobilizer systemmalfunction could occur.
CAUTION
Do not change, alter or adjust theimmobilizer system because itcould cause the immobilizer sys-tem to malfunction and shouldonly be serviced by an author-ized Kia dealer.
Malfunctions caused by improp-er alterations, adjustments ormodifications to the immobilizersystem are not covered by yourvehicle manufacturer warranty.
CAUTION
Do not put metal accessories
near the ignition switch.
Metal accessories may interruptthe transponder signal and mayprevent the engine from beingstarted.
WARNING
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
or your key number anywhere in
the vehicle. The ignition key and
key number are unique to your
vehicle, and therefore, should
