Knowing Your Vehicle

Windows

Manual Windows

AS2B03007

Use the window crank to open and close each window.

Power Windows (if equipped)

The ignition switch must be in the ON position for power windows to operate. Each door has a power window switch that controls that door's window. However, the driver has a power window lock switch which can cancel the operation of the three passenger window switches.

* NOTICE

To prevent the power window fuse from malfunctioning and the power window system from being damaged, do not open or close more than two windows at the same time.

Driver's Door Power Window Controls

AS2B03008A

All windows can be opened or closed using the power window master control on the driver's door. To open a window, press down on the corresponding power window switch. To close a window, pull up on the corresponding power window switch.

Driver's Window Automatic-Down Window Switch

Seats

WARNING - Drivers

• Never adjust the driver's seat or seatback when the vehicle is moving. Doing so could cause loss of control, and serious personal injury or death.
• Do not allow packages or other objects to interfere with the normal position of a seat back. These objects may prevent the seat back from locking, which could result in serious injury or death in the event of a sudden stop or collision.

• Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap portion of the safety belt snug and low across the hips.

- If a child is riding in the front passenger seat, they should always ride with the seatback in the fully upright position.

Knowing Your Vehicle

Front Seat Adjustment

Moving the Front Seat Forward and Backward (Both seats)

AS2B03011

To move the seat forward or backward;

1. Pull the seat slide adjustment lever under the front edge of the seat cushion up and hold it.
2. Slide the seat to the position you desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seat is locked in place.

ZCAUTION

Do not place anything under the front seats. Loose objects might interfere with the seat slide mechanism or possibly roll out from under the seat and interfere with the operation of the brake, clutch or accelerator foot pedals.

Adjusting the Front Seatback Recliner (Both seats)

AS2B03012

To recline the seatback;

1. Lean forward slightly and lift up on the seatback recline lever located on the outside of the seat, toward the rear.
2. Lean back on the seat and adjust the back of the seat to the position you desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seatback is located in place. (The lever MUST return to its original position for the seatback to lock.)

WARNING - Passengers

To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap portion of the lap/shoulder belt, and potentially suffering serious personal injury or death in the event of a collision, do not use the front seatback in a reclined position while the vehicle is in motion. If a seat is reclined, the occupant's hip could slide under or out of the lap portion of the lap/shoulder belt during a collision. If that occurs, the occupant may no longer be properly restrained, and the safety belt could apply restraint forces to the unprotected abdomen resulting in serious personal injury or death. Therefore, keep the seatbacks in a comfortably upright position whenever the vehicle is in motion.

Knowing Your Vehicle

Adjusting the Height of Driver's Seat Cushion (Driver's side-If equipped)

AS2B03013

To change the height (front portion) of the seat cushion, rotate the knob located on the outside of the seat cushion.

• To lower the seat cushion, rotate the knob toward the front of the vehicle.
  • To raise the seat cushion, rotate the knob toward the rear of the vehicle.

WARNING

To drive properly, adjust the driver's seat and its headrest before starting. After doing so, you should adjust the day/night rearview mirror and the outside rearview mirror.

Adjustable Headrest

To raise the headrest, simply pull it up to the desired position. To lower the headrest, press the release lever on the left side grommet, while pushing the headrest down to the desired position. To remove the headrest, raise it as far as it can go then press the release lever while pulling upward.

WARNING - Headrests

• To reduce the risk of head and neck injuries, do not operate the vehicle with the headrest removed or improperly positioned.
• Do not attempt to adjust the driver's headrest while driving.
• Adjust the top of the headrest so that it is even with the top of your ears in order to reduce the chance of injury in the event of a collision.

Knowing Your Vehicle

Split Folding Rear Seat (If equipped)

AS2B03015

The rear seatbacks fold forward to provide additional cargo space and to provide a access to the trunk area.

• To fold the rear seatback(s) down, press the unlock button located in the top of the seatbacks, then fold the seatback forward and down.
• To raise the seatback, lift and push it firmly until it clicks into place.
• When you return the seatback to its upright position, reposition the rear safety belts so that they can be used by rear seat passengers.

WARNING -Cargo

Cargo should always be secured to prevent it from shifting and causing injury to the vehicle occupants.

CAUTION

Do not remove the floor carpet in your vehicle, emission controls cause high exhaust temperatures under the floor.

* NOTICE

When returning the rear seatbacks to the upright position, remember to return the rear shoulder belts to their proper position. Routing the safety belt webbing through the rear safety belt guides will help keep the belts from being trapped behind or under the seats.

Safety Belts

Pre-tensioner Seat Belt (If equipped)

AS2B03105

Your 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 occupant's body in certain frontal collisions.

The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated alone or, where the frontal collision is severe enough, together with the airbags.

AS2B030015B

The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) type of seat belt. When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant tries to lean forward too quickly, the seat belt retractor will lock into position. However, in certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will activate and pull the seat belt into tighter contact against the occupant's body.

The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists mainly of the following components.

Their locations are shown in the illustration.

1. SRS airbag warning light
2. Seat belt pre-tensioner assembly
3. SRS control module

Knowing Your Vehicle

WARNING

To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-tensioner seat belt:

1. The seat belt must be worn correctly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position.

* NOTICE

• Both the driver's and front passenger's pretensioner seat belt will be activated in certain frontal collisions. When the frontal collision is severe enough, the pre-tensioners will be activated together with the airbags. The pretensioners will be activated under these conditions even if the seat belts are not being worn at the time of the collision.
• When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise may be heard and fine dust that may appear to be smoke, may be visible in the passenger compartment. These are normal operating conditions and are not hazardous.
• 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 pretensioner seat belts were activated.

CAUTION

• Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected with pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warning light AIR BAG on the instrument panel will blink for approximately 6 seconds after the ignition key has been turned to the "ON" positions, and then it should turn 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 ignition key is turned to "ON" or if it remains illuminated after blinking 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.

WARNING

• Pre-tensioners are designed to operate only one time. After activation, pre-tensioner seat belts must be replaced. All seat belts, of any type, should always be replaced after they have been worn during a collision.
• The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly mechanisms become hot during activation. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies for several minutes after they have been activated.
• Do not attempt to inspect or replace the pretensioner seat belts yourself. This must be done by an authorized Kia dealer.
• Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies.
• Do not attempt to service or repair the pretensioner seat belt system in any manner.
• Improper handling of the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies, and failure to heed the warnings to not strike, modify, inspect, replace, service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies may lead to improper operation or inadvertent activation and serious injury.
  • Always wear the seat belts when driving or riding in a motor vehicle.

Safety Belt Restraint System

WARNING

The driver and all passengers should always use the safety belts provided in order to minimize the risk of severe bodily injury.

We strongly recommend that the driver and all passengers be properly restrained at all times by using the safety belts provided with the vehicle. Proper use of the safety belts decreases the risk of severe injury or death in accidents or sudden stops. In most states and in Canada, the law requires their use.

Safety belts provide the best restraint when:

• the seatback is upright
• the occupant is sitting upright (not slouched)
- the lap belt portion of the safety belt is snug and low on the hips
- the shoulder belt portion of the safety belt is snug against the chest
• the knees are straight forward

Knowing Your Vehicle

To help you remember to fasten your safety belt, a warning light may come on and a chime may sound. See Safety Belt Warning on page 4-30.

All seats, except the center rear seat, have lap/shoulder belts. The center rear seat has a lap belt.

Inertial locks in the safety belt retractors allow all of the lap/shoulder safety belts to remain unlocked during normal vehicle operation. This allows the occupants some freedom of movement and increased comfort while using the safety belts. If a force is applied to the vehicle, such as a strong stop, a sharp turn, or a collision, the safety belt retractors will automatically lock the safety belts.

Since the inertial locks do not require a collision in order to lock up, you may become aware of the safety belts locking while braking or going around sharp corners.

The center rear seat safety belt does not have an inertial lock so it is always in a locked condition. Whenever possible, use the center rear seat position to install your child restraint. The center rear seat is the best position to install your child restraint. However, if the center seat is unavailable, a child restraint may be installed in the front passenger seat or in the rear outboard seats using the special auto lock mode feature provided with those safety belt.

The front passenger safety belt and rear outboard safety belts have been designed to allow a child restraint to be used in these positions without an added locking clip. These safety belts normally lock only under extreme or emergency conditions (this is the emergency lock mode which uses the locking retractor). However, they can be adjusted so that they remain fixed and locked when a child restraint is placed in those positions (this auto lock mode should only be used to secure a child restraint).

The driver's safety belt can only operate in the emergency lock mode.

⚠ WARNING -Twisted Safety Belts

Never drive or ride with a twisted or jammed safety belt. If you cannot untwist or unjam the safety belt, see your Kia dealer or the nearest qualified technician immediately.

⚠ WARNING -Safety Belt Usage

Each seating position in your vehicle has a specific safety belt assembly which includes a buckle and tongue that are designed to be used together. 1) Use the shoulder belt on the outside shoulder only. Never wear the shoulder belt under the arm. 2) Never swing the safety belt around your neck to fit over the inside shoulder. 3) Never use a single belt for more than one person.

⚠ WARNING - After a Collision

- Lap/shoulder belt assemblies may be stretched or damaged when subjected to the stress and forces of a collision.

A safety belt must be replaced if any part of the "Replace Belt" label is visible. You won't see this label unless your restraint system has been heavily loaded in a collision. This "Replace Belt" label shown in the picture in the next column, is located on the front belts near the door opening.

The entire restraint system should be inspected following any collision. All belts, retractors, anchors and hardware damaged by a collision should be replaced before the vehicle is operated again.

Knowing Your Vehicle

AS2B03054

⚠ WARNING - Safety Belt Care

- Safety belts should be inspected periodically for excessive wear or damage. Pull out each belt fully and look for excessive fraying, cuts, burns or other damage. Make sure that the lap/shoulder belts return smoothly and easily into the retractor. Check the latches to make sure they latch and release without interference or delay. Any belt not in good condition or in good working order should be promptly replaced.

CAUTION - Damage to Safety Belts

Never close the doors on any part of the lap or shoulder belt. It can damage the safety belt or buckle which could increase the risk of injury in case of an accident.

Restraint of Pregnant Women

Pregnant women should wear lap/shoulder belt assemblies whenever possible according to specific recommendations by their doctors. The lap portion of the belt should be worn AS SNUGLY AND AS LOW AS POSSIBLE.

⚠ WARNING - Pregnant Women

Pregnant women must never place the lap portion of the safety belt over the area of the abdomen where the fetus is located or above the abdomen.

Restraint of Infants and Small Children

Small children and infants should be restrained by an approved child restraint system to help protect them while riding in a vehicle.

Never allow a child to stand or kneel on the seat of a moving vehicle. Never allow a safety belt to be placed around both a child and an adult or around two children at the same time.

⚠ WARNING - Children on Laps

Never hold a child on your lap or in your arms in a moving vehicle. Even a very strong person cannot hold onto a child in the event of even a minor collision.

Knowing Your Vehicle

Many companies manufacture child restraint systems (often called child seats) for infants and small children. An acceptable child restraint system must always satisfy Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

Make sure that any child restraint system you use in your vehicle is labeled as complying with those safety standards.

The child restraint system should be chosen to fit both the size of the child and the size of the vehicle seat. Be sure to follow any instructions provided by the child restraint system manufacturer when installing the child restraint system.

CAUTION - Hot Metal Parts

Safety belts and seats can become hot in a vehicle that has been closed during warm/hot weather; they could burn a child. Check seat covers and buckles before you place a child anywhere near them.

Restraint of Large Children

As children grow, they may need to use new child restraint systems, including larger child seats or booster seats, which are appropriate for their increased size.

A child who has outgrown available child restraint systems should use the belts provided in the vehicle. When seated in the rear outboard seats, the child should be restrained by the lap/shoulder belt.

If the shoulder belt portion touches the child's neck or face, you can use some after-market devices made by independent manufacturers which help pull the shoulder belt down and away from the child's face or neck.

⚠ WARNING - Shoulder Belts on Small Children

- Never allow a shoulder belt to be in contact with a child's neck or face while the vehicle is in motion.

- If safety belts are not properly worn and adjusted, the risk of death or serious injury to such a child is high.

WARNING - Child Restraints

• Children will be endangered in a crash if their child restraint systems are not properly secured by the safety belts in the vehicle.
• According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions rather than the front seating positions.
• When a child restraint system is not secured by a safety belt, store it in the trunk so that it will not be thrown forward in the event of a sudden stop or accident.
