WARNING - Cargo Area
WARNING - Twisted Belts
•
Passengers should never be
allowed to ride in the cargo area
of a vehicle. No safety belts are
provided for the cargo area.
Persons riding in the vehicle
without a fastened safety belt
are much more likely to suffer
serious bodily injury or death
during an accident.
A twisted or jammed safety belt
cannot restrain you properly. If
you cannot untwist or unjam
the safety belt, see your Kia
dealer immediately. Never drive
or ride with a twisted or jammed
safety belt.

Never wear the shoulder por-
tion of the safety belt across
the neck or face.
