WARNING
If an air bag deploys, there may be a loud noise followed by a fine dust released in the vehi-
cle. These conditions are nor-
mal and are not hazardous - the
air bags are packed in this fine
powder. The dust generated
during air bag deployment may
cause skin or eye irritation as
well as aggravate asthma for
some persons. Always wash all
exposed skin areas thoroughlywith cold water and a mild
soap after an accident in which
the air bags were deployed.

The SRS can function onlywhen 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 whilst driving, the
SRS is not working properly. If
this occurs, we recommendthat the system be inspected
by an authorised Kia dealer.
Before you replace a fuse or disconnect a battery terminal,
turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK position and remove
the ignition key. Never remove
or replace the air bag relatedfuse(s) when the ignition

Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF
switch (if equipped)
The passenger’s front air bag can be
deactivated by the passenger’s front
air bag ON/OFF switch if a child
restraint is installed on the front pas-senger's seat or if the front passen-
ger's seat is unoccupied by a person.
To ensure the safety of your child,
the passenger’s front air bag must be
deactivated when it should be neces-
sary to install a rearward facing childseat on the front passenger seat in
exceptional circumstances.
(Continued)
Children age 12 and under must always be properly restrained in the rear seat.
Never allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat. If a
child over 12 must be seated
in the front seat, he or she
must be properly belted and
the seat should be moved as
far back as possible.
For maximum safety protec- tion in all types of crashes, all
occupants including the driver
should always wear their seat
belts whether or not an air bag
is also provided at their seat-ing position to minimise the
risk of severe injury or death
in the event of a crash. Do not
sit or lean unnecessarily close
to the air bag whilst the vehi-
cle is in motion.
(Continued)(Continued)
Sitting improperly or out ofposition can result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. Alloccupants should sit upright
with the seat back in an upright
position, centred on the seatcushion with their seat belt on,
legs comfortably extended and
their feet on the floor until the
vehicle is parked and the igni-
tion key is removed.
The SRS air bag system must deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If anoccupant is out of positionbecause of not wearing a seat
belt, the air bag may forcefullycontact the occupant causingserious or fatal injuries.

The purpose of the air bag is to pro-
vide the vehicle's driver and/or thefront passenger with additional pro-
tection than that offered by the seat
belt alone. The side air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side-
impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed and
point of impact. The side air bags are
not designed to deploy in all side
impact situations.
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-
senger's seat belt systems and
is not a substitute for them.
Therefore your seat belts must
be worn at all times whilst 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 seat occupants should sitin an upright position with the
seat belt properly fastened. Thedriver's hands should beplaced on the steering wheel at
the 9:00 and 3:00 positions. The
passenger's arms and handsshould be placed on their laps.
(Continued)(Continued)
Do not use any accessory seatcovers.
Use of seat covers could reduce or prevent the effec- tiveness of the system.
To prevent unexpected deploy- ment of the side air bag that
may result in personal injury,
avoid impact to the side impact
sensor when the ignition key ison.
If the seat or seat cover is dam- aged, we recommend that the
system be serviced by an
authorised Kia dealer.
