WARNING
 No modifications or additions should be made by the user
which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from oper-
ating 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 dan-
gerous and you may not be pro-
tected by the seat belt properly.
 Do not unfasten the seat belt and do not fasten and unfasten the
seat belt repeatedly whilst driv-
ing. 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.

approximately 6 seconds each time you
turn the ignition switch to the ON posi-tion. This light also comes on when the

warning light does not come on, or con-
tinuously remains on after operating for
about 6 seconds when you turned the
ignition switch to the ON position or start-
ed the engine, or if it comes on whilst
driving, we recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorised Kia deal-
er.
