Curtain air bagCurtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
It is designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants
and the rear outboard seat occu-
pants in certain side impact colli-
sions.
If the curtain air bag deploys, it
remains inflated for approximately
3 seconds. The curtain air bag
deployment occurs only on the
side of the vehicle affected by the
impact.
 The side air bags (side and curtain
air bags) are not designed to
deploy during collisions from the
front or rear of the vehicle or in
most rollover situations.
 The curtain air bags are designed
to deploy only during certain side-
impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed and
impact. The curtain air bags are
not designed to deploy in all side
impact situations.
WARNING
In order for side air bags (side
and curtain air bags) to pro-
vide its best protection, both
front seat occupants and both
outboard rear occupants
should sit in an upright posi-
tion with the seat belts proper-
ly fastened. Importantly, chil-
dren should sit in a proper
child restraint system in the
rear seat.
(Continued)
(Continued)
When children are seated in
the rear outboard seats, they
must be seated in the proper
child restraint system. Make
sure to put the child restraint
system as far away from the
door side as possible, and
secure the child restraint sys-
tem in a locked position.
 Do not allow the passengers
to lean their heads or bodies
onto doors, put their arms on
the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place
objects between the doors
and passengers when they are
seated on seats equipped with
side air bags.
 Never try to open or repair any
components of the side cur-
tain air bag system. This
should only be done by an
authorized Kia dealer.
Failure to follow the above men-
tioned instructions can result in
injury or death to the vehicle
occupants in an accident.

Noise and smokeWhen the air bags inflate, they make
a loud noise and they leave smoke
and powder in the air inside of the
vehicle. This is normal and is a result
of the ignition of the air bag inflator.
After the air bag inflates, you may
feel substantial discomfort in breath-
ing due to the contact of your chest
to both the safety belt and the air
bag, as well as from breathing the
smoke and powder. We strongly
urge you to open your doors
and/or windows as soon as possi-
ble after impact in order to reduce
discomfort and prevent prolonged
exposure to the smoke and pow-
der.
Though smoke and powder are non-
toxic, it may cause irritation to the
skin (eyes, nose and throat etc). If
this is the case, wash and rinse with
the cold water immediately and con-
sult the doctor if the symptom per-
sists.
WARNING -
Seated
positioning
 Driver should sit as far back
(at least 10 inches (250 mm)
away) from the steering wheel
air bag as possible to reduce
the risk of injury or death in a
collision. The front passenger
should always move their seat
as far back as possible and sit
back in their seat.
 Air bag inflates instantly in an
event of collision, passengers
may be injured by the air bag
expansion force if they are not
in proper position.
 Air bag inflation may cause
injuries which normally include
facial or bodily abrasions,
injuries by the broken glasses
or burns by the explosives.
WARNING
When the air bags deploy, the
air bag related parts in steering
wheel and/or instrument panel
and/or in both sides of the roof
rails above the front and rear
doors are very hot. To prevent
injury, do not touch the air bag
storage areas internal compo-
nents immediately after an air
bag has inflated.

Air bag (Supplemental
Restraint System) service Your Supplemental Restraint System
is virtually maintenance-free. There
are no parts which you can service.
You must have the system serviced
under the following circumstances:
 If an air bag ever inflates, the air
bag must be replaced. Do not try to
remove or discard the air bag by
yourself. This must be done by an
authorized Kia dealer.
 If the air bag warning indicator light
alerts you to a problem, have the
air bag system checked as soon as
possible. Otherwise, your air bag
system may be ineffective.
When repairing or scrapping the
vehicles  Repairing steering wheel, instru-
ment panel, center console or
roofs, or installing car audio around
center console or painting front
metal sheet could disable the air
bag system. Have them checked
by an authorized Kia dealer.
 When leaving the vehicle at an
authorized Kia dealer, inform the
facility that the vehicle is equipped
with air bag system, and leave the
owner’ s manual in the vehicle.
 Since air bag system contains
explosive chemical substances,
contact an authorized Kia dealer
when scrapping the vehicle.
WARNING
- No mainte-
nance or repair
 Do not modify your steering
wheel, seat or any other part
of the Supplemental Restraint
System. Modification could
make the system inoperable.
 Do not work on the system ’s
components or wiring. This
could cause the air bags to
inflate inadvertently, possibly
seriously injuring someone.
Working on the system could
also disable the system so
that the air bags would not
deploy in a collision.
 Any work on the SRS system,
such as removing, installing,
repairing, or any work on the
steering wheel must be per-
formed by a qualified Kia tech-
nician. Improper handling of
the air bag system may result
in serious personal injury or
death.
CAUTION

tion
Do not modify any part of the airbag system. Modification couldmake the air bag system ineffec-tive or could cause unneces-sary deployment.
