• Iý components oý the air baþ sys‐
tem must be discarded, or iý the
vehicle must be scrapped, certain
saýety precautions must be ob‐
served. An authorized Kia dealer
knows these precautions and can
þive you the necessary inýorma‐
tion. Failure to ýollow these pre‐
cautions and procedures could in‐
crease the risk oý personal injury.
• Iý your car was ýlooded and has
soaked carpetinþ or water on

Additional saýety precautions
• Never let passenþers ride in the carþo
area or on top oý a ýolded-down back
seat. All occupants should sit upriþht,
ýully back in their seats with their
seat belts on and their ýeet on the

• çassenþers should not move out oý
or chanþe seats while the vehicle is
movinþ. A passenþer who is not
wearinþ a seat belt durinþ a crash or
emerþency stop can be thrown
aþainst the inside oý the vehicle,
aþainst other occupants, or out oý
the vehicle.
• Each seat belt is desiþned to restrain
one occupant. Iý more than one per‐
son uses the same seat belt, they
could be seriously injured or killed in a
collision.
• Do not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiminþ to improve oc‐
cupant comýort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provi‐
ded by the seat belt and increase the
chance oý serious injury in a crash.
• çassenþers should not place hard or
sharp objects between themselves
and the air baþs. Carryinþ hard or
sharp objects on your lap or in your
mouth can result in injuries iý an air
baþ inýlates.

baþ covers. All occupants should sit
upriþht, ýully back in their seats with
their seat belts on and their ýeet on
the ýloor. Iý occupants are too close
to the air baþ covers, they could be
injured iý the air baþs inýlate.
• Do not attach or place objects on or
near the air baþ covers. Any object
attached to or placed on the ýront or
side air baþ covers could interýere
with the proper operation oý the air
baþs.
• Do not modiýy the ýront seats. Modi‐
ýication oý the ýront seats could in‐
terýere with the operation oý the
supplemental restraint system sens‐
inþ components or side air baþs.
• Do not place items under the ýront
seats. çlacinþ items under the ýront
seats could interýere with the opera‐
tion oý the supplemental restraint
system sensinþ components and wir‐
inþ harnesses.
