Driver's and passenger's front
air bag
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag)System and the lap/shoulder belts at
both the driver and passenger seat-
ing positions.

The SRS can function only
when the ignition key is in the
ON position. If the SRS air bagwarning light does not illumi-
nate, or continuously remains
on after illuminating for about 6
seconds when the ignition key
is turned to the ON position, or
after the engine is started,
comes on while driving, the
SRS is not working properly.
If this occurs, we recommend that the system be inspected
by an authorized Kia dealer.
Before you replace a fuse or disconnect a battery terminal,
turn the engine start/stop but-
ton to the OFF position. Never
remove or replace the air bagrelated fuse(s) when the
engine start/stop button is in
the ON position. Failure toheed this warning will cause
the SRS “ ” warning light to
illuminate.WARNING
If an air bag deploys, there may be a loud noise followed
by a fine dust released in the
vehicle. These conditions are
normal and are not hazardous
- the air bags are packed in
this fine powder. The dust gen-
erated during air bag deploy-
ment may cause skin or eye
irritation as well as aggravate
asthma for some persons.
Always wash all exposed skin
areas thoroughly with luke-warm water and a mild soap
after an accident in which the
air bags were deployed.

Side air bag Your vehicle is equipped with a side air bag in each front and outboard rear
seat. The purpose of the air bag is to
provide the vehicle's driver and/or thefront and outboard rear passengerswith additional protection than that
offered by the seat belt alone.
The side air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side-impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity, angle, speed and point ofimpact.
The side air bags are not designed to deploy in all side impact.
WARNING
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 passen-
gers when they are seated onseats equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.
WARNING
The side air bag is supplemen- tal to the driver’s and the pas-
sengers seat belt systems and
is not a substitute for them.
Therefore your seat belts must
be worn at all times while the
vehicle is in motion. The air
bags deploy only in certain
side impact conditions severeenough to cause significant
injury to the vehicle occupants.
For best protection from the side air bag system and to
avoid being injured by the
deploying side air bag, both
front and all rear (if equipped)seat occupants should sit in anupright position with the seat
belt properly fastened. The dri-ver's hands should be placedon the steering wheel at the
9:00 and 3:00 positions. The
passenger’ arms and handsshould be placed on their laps.

Why didn’t my air bag go off in a collision? (Inflation and non-infla-
tion conditions of the air bag)
There are many types of accidents
in which the air bag would not be
expected to provide additional
protection.
These include rear impacts, sec-
ond or third collisions in multiple
impact accidents, as well as lowspeed impacts.

Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate in a frontal collision depending on
the intensity, speed or angles ofimpact of the front collision.
OKH032083
(Continued)
Problems may arise if the sen-
sor installation angles are
changed due to the deforma-
tion of the front bumper, body,
front door or C pillar where
the collision sensors are
installed. We recommend that
the system be serviced by an
authorized Kia dealer.
Your vehicle has been designed to absorb impact
and deploy the air bag(s) in
certain collisions. Installing
aftermarket bumper guards or
replacing a bumper with non-
genuine parts may adversely
affect your vehicles collision
and air bag deployment per-
formance.WARNING
Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where
air bags or sensors areinstalled.
This may cause unexpected
air bag deployment, whichcould result in serious per-
sonal injury or death.
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 per-
form maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors.
We recommend that the sys-
tem be serviced by an author-
ized Kia dealer.

❈The actual air bags in the vehicle may dif-
fer from the illustration. Side and curtain air bags
Side and curtain air bags are designed to inflate when an impact is
detected by side collision sensorsdepending on the strength, speed orangles of impact resulting from aside impact collision.
Although the front air bags (driver’s
and front passenger’s air bags) aredesigned to inflate only in frontal col-
lisions, they also may inflate in othertypes of collisions if the front impactsensors detect a sufficient impact.
Side and curtain air bags aredesigned to inflate only in side
impact collisions, but they may inflatein other collisions if the side impactsensors detect a sufficient impact.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by
bumps or objects on unimproved
roads, the air bags may deploy. Drive
carefully on unimproved roads or on
surfaces not designed for vehicle
traffic to prevent unintended air bag
deployment.
Air bag non-inflation conditions
In certain low-speed collisions the
air bags may not deploy. The air
bags are designed not to deploy in
such cases because they may not
provide benefits beyond the pro-tection of the seat belts in such col-
lisions.

Features of your vehicle
Inside rearview mirror
Adjust the rearview mirror to center
on the view through the rear window.
Make this adjustment before you
start driving.Electric chromic mirror (ECM)
The electric chromic mirror automati- cally controls the glare from the head-
lights of the car behind you in night-
time or low light driving conditions. Thesensor mounted in the mirror senses
the light level around the vehicle, andautomatically controls the headlight
glare from vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the
glare is automatically controlled by
the sensor mounted in the rearview
mirror.Whenever the shift lever is shifted
into R (Reverse), the mirror will auto-
matically go to the brightest setting in
order to improve the drivers view
behind the vehicle.
MIRRORS
CAUTION
When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or similar materialdampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleanerdirectly on the mirror as thatmay cause the liquid cleaner toenter the mirror housing.WARNING - Rear visibility
Do not place objects in the rear
seat or cargo area which would
interfere with your vision
through the rear window.
WARNING
Do not modify the inside mirror
and don’t install a wide mirror. It
could result in injury, during an
accident or deployment of the
air bag.

Non-operational conditions of parking assist system
Parking assist system may notoperate normally when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally when mois-
ture melts.)
2. Sensor is covered with foreign matter, such as snow or water, or
the sensor cover is blocked. (It will
operate normally when the materi-
al is removed or the sensor is no
longer blocked.)
3. Sensor is stained with foreign mat- ter such as snow or water.
(Sensing range will return to nor-
mal when removed.)
4.The parking assist button is off.
There is a possibility of parking assist system malfunction when:
1. Driving on uneven road surfaces such as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
2. Objects generating excessive noise such as vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
can interfere with the sensor.
3. Heavy rain or water spray.
4. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones present near the sensor.
5. Sensor is covered with snow.
Detecting range may decrease when:
1. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
2. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m and narrower than 14 cm in
diameter.
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects, which tend to absorb sen- sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
