Safety features of your vehicle
above the glove box, because any
such object could cause harm if
the vehicle is in a crash severe
enough to cause the air bags to
deploy.
• Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring or other components
of the SRS system. Doing so could
result in injury, due to accidental
deployment of the air bags or by
rendering the SRS inoperative.
• If the SRS air bag warning light
remains illuminated while the
vehicle is being driven, have
the system inspected by a
professional workshop. Kia
recommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
• Air bags can only be used once
- have the system replaced by
a professional workshop. Kia
recommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
• The SRS is designed to deploy
the front air bags only when an
impact is sufficiently severe and
when the impact angle is less than
30° from the forward longitudinal
axis of the vehicle. Additionally,
the air bags will only deploy once.
Seat belts must be worn at all
times.
• Front air bags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-impact
or rollover crashes. In addition,
front air bags will not deploy
in frontal crashes below the
deployment threshold.

Air bag - supplemental restraint system
• A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front
seat. The infant or child could be
severely injured or killed by an
air bag deployment in case of an
accident.
• Children age 13 and under must
always be properly restrained in
the rear seat. Never allow children
to ride in the front passenger
seat. If a child over 13 must be
seated in the front seat, he or she
must be properly belted and the
seat should be moved as far back
as possible.
• For maximum safety protection in
all types of crashes, all occupants
including the driver should always
wear their seat belts whether or
not an air bag is also provided at
their seating position to minimize
the risk of severe injury or death
in the event of a crash. Do not
sit or lean unnecessarily close to
the air bag while the vehicle is in
motion.
• Sitting improperly or out of
position can result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. All
occupants should sit upright
with the seat back in an upright
position, centered on the seat
cushion with their seat belt on,
legs comfortably extended and
their feet on the floor until the
vehicle is parked and the ignition
key is removed.
