WARNING
僅 Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where air bag or sensors are
installed.
This may cause unexpected air bag deployment, which could result in serious personal
injury or death.
僅 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, causing severe
injury or death.
Therefore, do not try to perform maintenance on or around the air bag sensors. Have
the system serviced by a professional workshop. Kia recommends visiting an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
僅 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 serviced by a professional workshop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
僅 Your vehicle has been designed to absorb impact and deploy the air bag(s) in certain
collisions
Use only Kia Genuine Parts or those of an equivalent standard to install bumper guards
or replace a bumper. If not, it may adversely affect your vehicle's collision and air bag
deployment performance.
僅 If equipped with rollover sensor
If your vehicle is equipped with side and curtain air bag, press EV button to OFF position
and wait for 3 minutes when the vehicle is being towed.
The side and curtain air bag may deploy when the EV button is in ON or OFF position
within 3 minutes, and the rollover sensor detects the situation as a rollover.
