CAUTION
If the passenger's front air bag
ON/OFF switch malfunctions,
the passenger's front air bag
OFF indicator will not illuminate
(The passenger's front air bag
ON indicator comes on and goes
off after approximately 60 sec-
onds) and the passenger's front
air bag will inflate in a frontal
impact even if the passenger's
front air bag ON/OFF switch is
set to the OFF position.
If this occurs, we recommend
that the passenger's front air
bag ON/OFF switch and the SRS
air bag system be inspected by
an authorised Kia dealer.

11. Passenger's front air bag

The SRSCM continually monitors all
elements whilst the ignition switch is
ON to determine if a frontal, near-
frontal impact or side impact is
severe enough to require air bag

deployment or pre-tensioner seat belt
deployment.
The SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument panel will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position,
after which the air bag warning light
should go out.
