Kia Seltos: Seat belts / Care of seat belts

Seat belt systems in the Kia Seltos should never be disassembled, modified, or repaired by the owner. Always make sure the belt webbing, buckles, latches, anchors, and related hardware are not damaged by seat hinges, doors, sharp objects, or improper use.

Kia Seltos warning about rear seat belt webbing or buckle being pinched

Kia Seltos warning that seat belts may become hot in sunny weather

WARNING

Seat belts can become very hot inside a closed vehicle parked in direct sunlight. Handle them carefully, especially before placing infants or children in the Kia Seltos, because hot buckles or belt hardware may cause burns.

Periodic inspection

All seat belts should be inspected periodically for wear, cuts, fraying, stiffness, contamination, damaged buckles, or other visible defects. Any damaged parts should be replaced as soon as possible to keep the Kia Seltos restraint system reliable.

Keep belts clean and dry

Seat belts should be kept clean and dry. If cleaning is required, use a mild soap solution and warm water. Do not use bleach, dye, strong detergents, chemical cleaners, or abrasive products, because they may weaken or damage the belt fabric.

When to replace seat belts

The seat belt assembly should be replaced if the Kia Seltos has been involved in an accident, even if no damage is visible. Collision forces can weaken internal components or webbing. Additional questions about seat belt operation should be directed to an authorized Kia dealer.
