• Problems may arise if the sensor
installation angles are changed due
to the deformation of the front
bumper, body or B pillar where
side collision sensors are installed.
In this case, have the system serv‐
iced by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an au‐
thorized Kia dealer/ service part‐
ner.
• Your vehicle has been designed to
absorb impact and deploy the air
bag(s) in certain collisions. Instal‐
ling bumper guards or replacing a
bumper with non-genuine parts
may adversely affect your vehicles
collision and air bag deployment
performance.
Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate in
a frontal collision depending on the in‐
tensity, speed or angles of impact of
the front collision.
❈ The actual air bags in the vehicle
may differ from the illustration.
