The SRSCM continually monitors all
elements whilst the ignition switch is
ON to determine if a frontal, near-
OPS036065R
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.
WARNING

occurs, this indicates a malfunc-
tion of the SRS. In this case,
have the system inspected by a
professional workshop. Kia rec-
ommends to visit an authorised
Kia dealer/service partner.

nating for approximately 6
