Your vehicle is equipped with an
electronic engine immobilizer system
to reduce the risk of unauthorized
vehicle use.
Your immobilizer system is com-
prised of a small transponder in the
ignition key, and antenna coil in the
key cylinder and Immobilizer unit in
the instrument panel.
With this system, whenever you
insert your ignition key into the igni-
tion switch and turn it to ON, the
antenna coil in the ignition switch
receives a signal from the transpon-
der in the ignition key and then sends
the signal to the Immobilizer unit.The Immobilizer unit checks the sig-
nal and determines whether the igni-
tion key is valid.
If the key is determined to be valid,
the engine will start.
If the key is determined to be invalid,
the engine will not start.
To deactivate the immobilizer sys-
tem:
Insert the ignition key into the key
cylinder and turn it to the ON posi-
tion.
To activate the immobilizer sys-
tem:
Turn the ignition key to the OFF posi-
tion. The immobilizer system acti-
vates automatically. Without a valid
ignition key for your vehicle, the
engine will not start.
✽ ✽
NOTICEWhen starting the engine, do not use
the key with other immobilizer keys
around. Otherwise the engine may
not start or may stop soon after it
starts. Keep each key separately not
to have any malfunction after you
receive your new vehicle.This device complies with
Industry Canada Standard RSS-
210. Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions:
1. This device may not cause inter- ference, and
2. This device must accept any inter- ference, including interference that
may cause undesired operation of
the device.

WARNING
To obtain maximum benefit from
a pre-tensioner seat belt:
 The seat belt must be worn
correctly.
 The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position.
CAUTION
When the pre-tensioner seatbelts are activated, a loud noisemay be heard and fine dust,which may appear to be smoke,may be visible in the passengercompartment and are not toxic.
Although, it is harmless, the finedust may cause skin irritationand should not be breathed forprolonged periods. Wash yourhands and face thoroughly afteran accident in which the airbags and/or pre-tensioner seatbelts were activated.
CAUTION
 Because the sensor that acti- vates the SRS air bag is con-nected with pre-tensioner seatbelt, the SRS air bag warninglight on the instrument panelwill blink or illuminate forapproximately 6 seconds afterthe ignition key has beenturned to the “ON” position,then the light should go off.
 If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, thiswarning light will illuminateeven if there is no malfunctionof SRS air bag system. If theSRS air bag warning lightdoes not illuminate when theignition key is turned to “ON”,or if it remains illuminatedafter blinking or illuminatingfor approximately 6 seconds,or if it illuminates while thevehicle is being driven, pleasehave an authorized Kia dealerinspect the pre-tensioner seatbelt or SRS air bag system assoon as possible.

Knowing your vehicle
Air bag system components The main components of your SRS
are:
To indicate that your vehicle is
equipped with air bags, the corre-
sponding air bag covers are
marked with “SRS AIR BAG”.
- Driver’ s air bag
- Passenger’ s air bag
- Side air bag
- Curtain air bag
 A diagnostic system that continual-
ly monitors the system operation.
 An indicator light to warn you of a
possible problem with the system.
 Emergency power backup in case
your car’ s electrical system is dis-
connected in a crash. The SRS uses a collection of sen-
sors to gather information about the
driver’
s and front passenger’ s seat
position, the driver’ s and front pas-
senger’ s safety belt usage and
impact severity.
The driver’ s and front passenger’ s
seat position sensors, which are
installed on the seat track, determine
if the seats are fore or aft of a refer-
ence position. Similarly, the safety
belt usage sensors determine if the
driver and front passenger’ s safety
belts are fastened. These sensors
provide the ability to control the SRS
deployment based on how close the
driver’ s seat is to the steering wheel,
how close the passenger’ s seat is to
the instrument panel, whether or not
the safety belts are fastened, and
how severe is the impact. The advanced SRS offers the ability
to control the air bag inflation with
two levels. A first stage level is pro-
vided for moderate-severity impacts.
A second stage level is provided for
more severe impacts.
The SRSCM (SRS Control Module)
controls the air bag inflation in accor-
dance with impact severity, seating
position and safety belt usage.
Additionally, your SRS is equipped
with an occupant classification sys-
tem in the front passenger’
s seat.
The occupant classification system
detects the presence of a passenger
in the front passenger’ s seat and will
turn off the front passenger ’s air bag
under certain conditions. For more
detail, see “Occupant Classification
System” later in this section.

CAUTION
If the seat position sensor is not
working properly, the SRS airbag warning light ( ) on theinstrument panel will illuminateeven if there is no malfunctionof the SRS air bag system,because the SRS air bag warn-ing light is connected with theseat position sensor. If the SRSair bag warning light does notilluminate when the ignition keyis turned to the "ON" position, ifit remains illuminated afterblinking for approximately 6seconds, or if it illuminateswhile the vehicle is being driv-en, have an authorized Kia deal-er inspect the seat position sen-sor and the advanced SRS airbag system as soon as possi-ble.
WARNING
 Modification to the seat struc- ture can adversely affect the
seat position sensor and
cause the air bag to deploy at
a different level than should
be provided.
 Failure to properly wear safety belts can increase the risk or
severity of injury by causing
the air bags to deploy at a dif-
ferent level than should be
provided.
 Do not place any objects underneath the front seats
which could damage the seat
position sensor or interfere
with the occupant classifica-
tion system.
 Do not place any objects that may cause magnetic fields
near the front seat. These may
cause a malfunction of the
seat position sensor.
(Continued)
(Continued)
 Ignoring the SRS indicatorlight (air bag indicator and
passenger air bag off indica-
tor) can result in serious or
fatal injury if the air bags
occupant classification sys-
tem or pretensioners do not
work properly. Have your car
checked by a dealer as soon
as possible if the SRS warning
light alerts you to a potential
problem.
 Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. All
occupants should sit upright
in their seats with their feet on
the floor until the vehicle is
parked and the ignition key is
removed.

Driver’s air bagThe driver’s air bag is stored in the
center of the steering wheel.
Front passenger’s air bagFront passenger’ s air bag is stored in
the instrument panel on the glove
box.
Since you cannot anticipate which air
bags will deploy or from what direc-
tion, never put any objects or orna-
ments on the instrument panel.
WARNING
 You must always sit as far back from the steering wheel
air bag as possible (chest at
least 250 mm (10 inches) away
from the steering wheel), while
still maintaining a comfortable
seating position for good
vehicle control, in order to
reduce the risk of injury or
death in a collision.
 Never place objects over the air bag storage compartments
or between the air bags and
yourself. Due to the speed and
force of the air bag inflation,
such objects could hit your
body at high speed and cause
severe bodily injury and even
death.
 Do not put stickers or orna- ments on the steering wheel
cover. These may interfere
with the deployment of the air
bag.
