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

exposed skin areas thoroughlywith cold water and a mild
soap after an accident in which
the air bags were deployed.

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, have the system
inspected by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends tovisit an authorised Kia deal-
er/service partner.

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
