Load limiter

When the pre-tentioner activates, if

the system senses excessive seat

belt tension on the driver or passen-

ger’s seat belt, the load limiter inside

the pre-tensioner will release some

of the pressure on the affected seat

belt.

CAUTION - Airbag/Pre-

tensioner dust

When the airbags and pre-ten-

sioners are activated, a loud

noise may be heard and fine

dust, which may appear to be

smoke, may be visible in the

passenger compartment. This

dust is not toxic. The dust may

cause skin irritation and should

not be breathed for prolonged

periods. Ventilate the vehicle

after impact and wash your

hands and face thoroughly after

an accident.

WARNING - Airbag/pre-

tensioner warning light

If the SRS airbag warning light

does not illuminate when the

ignition key is turned to “ON”,or

if it remains illuminated after

approximately 6 seconds, or if it

illuminates while the vehicle is

being driven, please have an

authorized Kia dealer inspect

the pre-tensioner and airbag

system as soon as po

ssible.

WARNING - Safety belt

adjustment

To obtain maximum benefit from

a pre-tensioner seat belt:

• The safety belt must be worn

correctly.

• The safety belt must be

adjusted to the correct posi-

tion.
