Kia Optima DL3: Safety features of your vehicle / Seat belts

The rear seatbacks may be folded to facilitate carrying long items or to increase the luggage capacity of the vehicle. WARNING - Folded Seatback The purpose of the fold-down rear seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer objects that could not otherwise be accommodated.

For maximum restraint system protection, the seat belts must always be used whenever the vehicle is moving. A properly positioned shoulder belt should be positioned midway over your shoulder across your collarbone.
