Air bag warning light
The purpose of the air bag warning
light in your instrument panel is to
alert you of a potential problem with
your air bag - Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS).
When the Engine Start/Stop button
is turned ON, the indicator light
should illuminate for approximately 6
seconds, then go off.
Have the system checked by an
authorized K900 Kia dealer if:
The light does not turn on brieflywhen you turn the Engine
Start/Stop button to the ON posi-
tion. The light stays on after illuminating
for approximately 6 seconds.
The light comes on while the vehi- cle is in motion.

Air bag deployment
When children are seated inthe rear outboard seats of a
vehicle equipped with side
and/or curtain air bags, install
the child restraint system as
far away from the door side as
possible. Inflation of the side
and/or curtain air bags could
impact the child.
Do not install or place any accessories near air bag
deployment areas, such as
the instrument panel, win-
dows, pillars, and roof rails.
Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles if the
air bag deploys.

Seat and safety features of your vehicle
Condition and operation in the front passenger occupant detection system
*1: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system mayrecognize him/her as a child depending on his/her physique and posture.
*
2: Do not allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. When a smaller child than the same age sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as an infant depending on his/her physique or posture.
*
3: Never install a child restraint system on the front passenger seat.
*
4: The PASSENGER AIR BAG "OFF" indicator may turn on or off when a child above 12 months to 12 years old (with or without child restraint system) sits in the front passenger seat. This is a normal condition.
✽ NOTICE
Do not modify or replace the front passenger seat. Don't place anything on or attach anything such as a blanket,
front seat cover or after market seat heater to the front passenger seat. This can adversely affect the occupant detec-
tion system.

✽NOTICE
Air bags can only be used once –
have an authorized K900 Kia dealer
replace the air bag immediately
after deployment.
Any child age 12 and under should ride
in the rear seat. Children too large for
child restraints should use the avail-
able lap/shoulder belts. No matter what
type of crash, children of all ages are
safer when restrained in the rear seat.
✽NOTICE
Do not modify or replace the front
passenger seat. Don't place anything
on or attach anything such as a blan-
ket, front seat covers or after market
seat heater to the front passenger
seat. This can adversely affect the
occupant detection system.
If the occupant detection system is
not working properly, the SRS air bag
warning light on the instrument
panel will illuminate because the pas-
senger's front air bag is connected
with the occupant detection system. If
there is a malfunction of the occupant
detection system, the PASSENGER
AIR BAG “OFF” indicator will not illu-
minate and the passenger's front air
bag will inflate in frontal impact crash-
es even if there is no occupant in the
front passenger's seat.
ODS Interference
Do not put a heavy load an
electronic device (ex. laptop
computer, after market DMB,
navigation, satellite audio,
video game machine, MP3, AC
inverter and etc.) or sitting mat
in the front passenger seat-
back pocket or on the front
passenger seat.
Do not hang onto the front passenger seat.
Do not hang any items such as seatback table on the front
passenger seatback.
Do not place feet on the front passenger seatback.
Do not place any items under the front passenger seat.
Do not place sharp objects on the front passenger seat.
These may damage the occu-
pant detection system, if they
puncture the seat cushion.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not spill any liquids on theseat. Any of the above could
interfere with the proper oper-
ation of the ODS sensor there-
by increasing the risk of an
injury in an accident. WARNING
Seat Track Sensor
Do not place any objects under-
neath the front seats as they
could damage the seat track
position sensor or interfere with
the occupant detection system.

Seat and safety features of your vehicle
Driver's and passenger's front
air bag
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Advanced Supplemental Restraint
(Air Bag) System and lap/shoulder
belts at both the driver and passen-
ger seating position. The indications of the system's pres-
ence are the letters "AIR BAG"
embossed on the air bag pad cover
in the steering wheel and the pas-
senger's side front panel pad above
the glove box.
The SRS consists of air bags
installed under the pad covers in the
center of the steering wheel and the
passenger's side front panel above
the glove box.
The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the vehicle's driver and/or the front
passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt sys-
tem alone in case of a frontal impact
of sufficient severity. The SRS uses
sensors to gather information about
the driver's seat position, the driver's
and front passenger's seat belt
usage and impact severity.
The advanced SRS offers the ability
to control the air bag inflation with
two levels. A first stage level is pro-
vided for moderate-severity impacts.
A second stage level is provided for
more severe impacts.
The passenger’s front air bag is
designed to help reduce the injury of
children sitting close to the instru-
ment panel in low speed collisions.
However, children are safer if they
are restraint in the rear seat.
According to the impact severity,
seating position and seat belt usage,
the SRSCM (SRS Control Module)
controls the air bag inflation. Failure
to properly wear seat belts can
increase the risk or severity of injury
in an accident.
