Safety features of your vehicle
WARNING
Air bag sensors
Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where air
bags or sensors are installed.
This may cause unexpected air
bag deployment, which could
result in serious personal injury or
death.
If the installation location or angle
of the sensors is altered in any
way, the air bags may deploy
when they should not or they
may not deploy when they
should.
Therefore, do not try to perform
maintenance on or around the air
bag sensors. Have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized Kia dealer.
Do not arbitrarily touch the front
impact sensor. When the angle of
the sensor is changed, the air bag
system may malfunction.
WARNING
If equipped with rollover sensor
If your vehicle is equipped with side
and curtain air bag, set the ignition
switch or ENGINE START/STOP but -
ton to OFF or ACC position and wait
for 3 minutes when the vehicle is
being towed.
The side and curtain air bag may
deploy when the ignitions is ON or
3 78
Air bag - Advanced Supplemental Restraint
the ignition is OFF within 3 minutes,
and the rollover sensor detects the
situation as a rollover.
Problems may arise if the sensor
installation angles are changed due
to the deformation of the front
bumper, front end module, body or
front doors where side collision sen -
sors are installed. Have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an autho -
rized Kia dealer.
Installing bumper guards (or side
step or running board) or replacing a
bumper (or front door module) with
non-genuine parts may adversely
affect your vehicle's collision and air
bag deployment performance.
Why didn't my air bag go off in a
collision? (Inflation and non-infla -
tion conditions of the air bag)
There are many types of accidents
in which the air bag would not be
expected to provide additional pro -
tection.
These include rear impacts, second
or third collisions in multiple impact
accidents, as well as low speed
impacts.
