replace the pre-tensioner seat
belts yourself. This must be
done by an authorized Kia
dealer.

seat belt assemblies.

tensioner seat belt
blies, and failure to heed the
warnings not to strike, modify,

repair the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies may lead to
improper operation or inad-
vertent activation causing
