WARNING
Do not modify or replace the front
passenger seat.  Don't place any-
thing on  or attach anything such
as a  blanket or after  market seat
heater   to  the   front   passenger
seat.This can adversely affect the
occupant classification system.
Do not sit  on sharp objects such
as   tools   when  occupying    the
front  passenger   seat.  This  can
adversely   affect   the   occupant
classification system.
•  Air bags can only be used once –
have  an   authorized  KIA   dealer
replace  the  air  bag  immediately
after deployment.
Even   though    your   vehicle   is
equipped with the occupant clas-
sification system,  never install  a
child restraint system in the front
passenger's seat. A deploying air
bag  can forcefully  strike  a  child
resulting  in   serious  injuries  or
death.   Any   child   age   12  and
under should ride in the rear seat.
•  A smaller-stature adult who is not
seated   correctly   (for  example:
seat excessively reclined, leaning
on  the  center   console,  or  hips
shifted  forward  in the  seat)  can
cause   a   condition   where    the
advanced frontal  air  bag system
senses  less  weight   than  if  the
occupant  were   seated  properly
(sitting upright with  the seatback
in  an  upright  position, centered
on  the  seat   cushion  with  their
seat  belt   on,   legs  comfortably
extended  and  their   feet  on  the
floor).
Children
too    large   for    child
restraints  should  use  the  avail-
able lap/shoulder belts. No matter
what type of crash, children of all
ages are safer when restrained in
the rear seat.
If   the  "PASSENGER   AIR   BAG
OFF"   indicator    is   illuminated
when the  front  passenger's seat
is   occupied   by   an   adult   and
Do  not use  accessory  seat cov-
ers on the front seats.
•  Accident    statistics   show   that
children   are   safer   if  they   are
restrained in the rear, as opposed
to  the   front  seat.   It  is   recom-
mended  that  child  restraints  be
secured in  a rear  seat, including
an  infant  riding  in a  rear-facing
infant seat, a child riding in a  for-
ward-facing   child  seat   and   an
older  child   riding  in  a   booster
seat.
This  condition  can  result  in  an
adult potentially being  misclassi-
fied and illumination of the "PAS-
SENGER  AIR  BAG  OFF" indica-
tor.
he/she
sits
properly
(sitting
upright  with  the  seatback in  an
upright position, centered  on the
seat cushion  with their  seat belt
on,  legs   comfortably   extended
and their  feet on  the floor), have
that person sit in the rear seat.
