CAUTION
If the seat position sensor is not
working properly, the SRS air
bag warning light ( ) on the
instrument panel will illuminate
even if there is no malfunction
of the SRS air bag system,
because the SRS air bag warn-
ing light is connected with the
seat position sensor. If the SRS
air bag warning light does not
illuminate when the ignition key
is turned to the "ON" position, if
it remains illuminated after
blinking for approximately 6
seconds, or if it illuminates
while the vehicle is being driv-
en, have an authorized Kia deal-
er inspect the seat position sen-
sor and the advanced SRS air
bag 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)
• Ignoring the SRS indicator
light (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

Knowing your vehicle
Always be sure that you and all vehi-
cle occupants are seated and
restrained properly (sitting upright
with the seat in an upright position,
centered on the seat cushion, with
the person's legs comfortably
extended, feet on the floor, and wear-
ing the safety belt properly) for the
most effective protection by the air
bag and the safety belt.
• The OCS may not function proper-
ly if the passenger takes actions
which can defeat the detection sys-
tem. These include:
(1) Failing to sit in an upright posi-
tion.
(2) Leaning against the door or cen-
ter console.
(3) Sitting towards the sides or the
front of the seat.
(4) Putting legs on the dashboard or
resting them on other locations
which reduce the passenger
weight on the front seat.
(5) Improperly wearing the safety
belt.
(6) Reclining the seat back.• The “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF”
indicator illuminates after the igni-
tion key is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion or after the engine is started. If
the front passenger's seat is occu-
pied by a very small person or is
occupied by someone who is
improperly seated, the “PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF” indicator will
remain illuminated and the front
passenger air bag will not deploy in
frontal crashes. If the front passen-
ger’s seat is occupied by an adult
size person seated properly, the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indi-
cator will turn off after approxi-
mately 4 seconds and the front
passenger's air bag will deploy in
frontal collision.
CAUTION
If the occupant classification
system is not working properly,
the air bag warning light ( ) on
the instrument panel will illumi-
nate. If there is a malfunction of
the occupant classification sys-
tem, the "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicator will not illumi-
nate and the front passenger's
air bag will deploy in frontal
crashes even if there is child or
no occupant in the front pas-
senger’s seat. If the SRS air bag
warning light does not illumi-
nate when the ignition key is
turned to "ON" position, if it
remains illuminated after blink-
ing for approximately six sec-
onds, or if it illuminates while
the vehicle is being driven, have
an authorized Kia dealer inspect
the occupant classification sys-
tem with the SRS air bag system
as soon as possible.
