How does the air bag system
operate
Air bags are activated (able toinflate if necessary) only when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON
or START position.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of a serious frontal collision
or side collision in order to help
protect the occupants from serious
physical injury.
Also, the side and/or curtain air
bags inflate instantly in the event of
a rollover in order to help protect
the occupants from serious physi-
cal injury.
There is no single speed at which the air bags will inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision and its direction. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce an electronic
deployment/ inflation signal. Air bag deployment depends on a
number of factors including vehicle
speed, angles of impact and the
density and stiffness of the vehi-
cles or objects which your vehicle
hits in the collision. The determin-
ing factors are not limited to those
mentioned above.
The front air bags will completely inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to
see the air bags inflate during an
accident.
It is much more likely that you will
simply see the deflated air bags
hanging out of their storage com-
partments after the collision.
In order to help provide protection in a severe collision, the air bags
must inflate rapidly. The speed of
the air bag inflation is a conse-
quence of extremely short time in
which a collision occurs and the
need to inflate the air bag between
the occupant and the vehicle struc-
tures before the occupant impacts
those structures. This speed of inflation reduces the
risk of serious or life-threatening
injuries in a severe collision and is
thus a necessary part of the air
bag design.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include
facial abrasions, bruises and bro-
ken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force.
There are even circumstances under which contact with the
steering wheel or passenger air
bag can cause fatal injuries,
especially if the occupant is
positioned excessively close to
the steering wheel or passenger
air bag.

Features of your vehicle
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.
To deactivate the immobilizersystem:
Insert the ignition key into the key
cylinder and turn it to the ON posi-
tion.
In order to prevent theft of your vehi-
cle, do not leave spare keys or your
key number anywhere in the vehicle.
The ignition key and key number are
unique to your vehicle, and therefore,
should be kept confidential.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
When 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 in
order to avoid a starting malfunc-
tion.
Do not put metal accessories near
the ignition switch.
Metal accessories may interrupt the
transponder signal and may prevent
the engine from being started.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If you need additional keys or lose
your keys, consult an authorized Kia
dealer.
CAUTION- Immobilizer
damage
Do not expose your immobilizer
system to moisture, static elec-tricity and rough handling. Thismay damage your immobilizer.
CAUTION- Immobilizer alterations
Do not change, alter or adjust
the immobilizer system becauseit could cause the immobilizersystem to malfunction.

Transmitter precautions
The transmitter will not work if any of
the following occurs:
The ignition key is in the ignitionswitch.
You exceed the operating distance limit (10 m [about 30 feet]).
The battery in the transmitter is weak.
Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
The weather is extremely cold.
The transmitter is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio station
or an airport which can interfere
with normal operation of the trans-
mitter. When the transmitter does not work
properly, open and close the door
with the ignition key. If you have a
problem with the transmitter, contact
an authorized Kia dealer.
If the transmitter is in close proxim-
ity to your cell phone or smart
phone, the signal from the trans-
mitter could be blocked by normal
operation of your cell phone or
smart phone. This is especially
important when the phone is active
such as making call, receiving
calls, text messaging, and/or send-
ing/receiving emails. Avoid placing
the transmitter and your cell phone
or smart phone in the same pants
or jacket pocket and maintain ade-
quate distance between the two
devices.
CAUTION
Keep the smart key away fromwater or any liquid as it canbecome damaged and not func-tion properly.

phone, the signal from the smart
key could be blocked by normal
operation of your cell phone or
