Side airbag (if equipped) Side airbags are stored in the left
side of the driver’s seat and right side
of the front passenger’s seat. If airbag inflation conditions are met
(side collision), they will inflate. Curtain airbag (if equipped)
Curtain airbags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.

equipped with side airbags.
Use of seat covers could inter-
fere with side airbag deploy-ment.

aged, have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized Kia dealer. Inform
them that your vehicle is
equipped with side airbags.

Installing a child restraint on a
front passenger seat is forbid-den.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger seat.
If the airbag deploys, it would impact
the rear-facing child restraint, caus-
ing serious or fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraint in the front passenger
seat either. If the front passenger
airbag inflates, it would cause seri-
ous or fatal injuries to the improperly
positioned or improperly restrainedchild.
WARNING
 Never put child restraint in the front passenger seat. If the
front passenger airbag
inflates, it would cause seri-ous or fatal injuries.
 When children are seated in the rear outboard seats in
which curtain airbags are
equipped, be sure to put the
child restraint system as far
away from the door side as
possible, and secure the child
restraint system to be lockedin position.
Inflation of side or curtain
airbag (if equipped) could
cause serious injury or death
due to the expansion impact.WARNING
When the airbags deploy, the
airbag related parts in steeringwheel 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 airbag
storage areas internal compo-
nents immediately after an

by an authorized Kia dealer.
 When leaving the vehicle at an authorized Kia dealer, inform that

WARNING
 Do not modify your steering wheel, seat or any other part of the Supplemental Restraint

make the system inoperable.
 Do not work on the system’s components or wiring. This
could cause the airbags to
inflate inadvertently, possibly
seriously injuring someone.
