Knowing your vehicle
To unfasten:

Proper use and care of the
seat belt system
To ensure that the seat belts provide
the maximum protection, please fol-
low these instructions:
• Use the belts at all times - even on
short trips.
• If the seat belt is twisted, straighten
it prior to use.
• Keep sharp edges and damaging
objects away from the belts.
• Periodically inspect belt webbing,
anchors, buckles and all other
parts for signs of wear and dam-
age. Replace damaged, excessive-
ly worn or questionable parts
immediately.
(Continued)
• Never drive or ride with a
twisted or jammed seat belt. If
you cannot untwist or unjam
the seat belt, see the nearest
Kia dealer immediately.
• Never use a single belt to
restrain more than one person
at a time.
Failure to follow these warnings
will increase the risk and sever-
ity of injury in an accident.
WARNING
• Never wear the shoulder por-
tion of the seat belt under the
outside arm or behind the
back.
• Never wear the shoulder por-
tion of the seat belt across the
neck or face.
• Wear the lap portion of the
seat belt as low as possible.
Be sure the lap belt fits snug-
ly around the hips. Never wear
the lap belt over your waist.
