2007 Kia Rio Owners Manual

Knowing your vehicle
Safety belt restraintsystem
WARNING - Safety  belts
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.
WARNING - Child  restraint
in frontseat
Never  install  a  child  restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger position,
as an inflating air bag could cause
serious or fatal injury to a child in
that position.
To  minimize  the  risk  of serious or
fatal injury in an accident,  the driv-
er  and  all  passengers should  use
the appropriate safety restraints for
their age and size.  The presence of
air bags does not change the need
to be properly restrained by a safe-
ty  belt   or  size-appropriate   child
restraint.     In   fact,   air   bags  are
designed  to  work   the  best  when
passengers are correctly restrained
in the vehicle.
All seats have lap/shoulder belts. Inertial
locks in the safety belt retractors allow all
of the lap/shoulder safety belts to remain
unlocked  during  normal  vehicle  opera-
tion.  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 automatical-
ly lock the safety belts.
The rear safety belts use a special auto-
lock  feature  designed  to  allow  a  child
restraint  to  be  used  in  these  positions
without an added locking clip.  They nor-
mally lock only under extreme or emer-
gency    conditions     (emergency    lock
mode). However they can be adjusted so
that they remain fixed and locked when a
child restraint system is placed in these
positions. (Use this auto-lock mode only
to secure a child restraint, never for pas-
sengers  restrained  by  the  safety  belts.)
Page 3-42 gives instructions on placing
the safety belt in the auto lock mode.
Be sure you are familiar with the
information     in    this  section,
including    the   information     on
infant and child restraints.
Read the safety warnings  on the
sun visors of your vehicle also.
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 cor-
ners.
The drivers safety belt can only operate
in the emergency lock mode.
Always  use  the  rear  seat  position(s)  to
install your child restraint(s).
