WARNING
•To avoid severe personal injury ordeath caused by deploying air bagsin a collision, the driver should sitas far back from the steeringwheel air bag as possible (at least250 mm (10 inches) away). Thefront passengers should alwaysmove their seats as far back aspossible and sit back in their seat.
•Air bags inflate instantly in theevent of a collision, and passen‐gers may be injured by the air bagexpansion force if they are not in aproper position.
•Air bag inflation may cause injuriesincluding facial or bodily abrasions,injuries from broken glasses orburns.
Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make a
loud noise and they leave smoke and
powder in the air inside of the vehicle. This is normal and is a result of the ig‐
nition of the air bag inflator. After the
air bag inflates, you may feel substan‐ tial discomfort in breathing due to the
contact of your chest with both the
seat belt and the air bag, as well as from breathing the smoke and powder.
Open your doors and/or windows assoon as possible after impact in orderto reduce discomfort and prevent pro‐longed exposure to the smoke andpowder.
Though the smoke and powder are non-toxic, they may cause irritation to
the skin (eyes, nose and throat, etc). If
this is the case, wash and rinse with cold water immediately and consult a
doctor if the symptom persists.
WARNING
When the air bags deploy, the airbag related parts in the steeringwheel and/or instrument paneland/or in both sides of the roof rails

above the front and rear doors arevery hot. To prevent injury, do nottouch the air bag storage area’s in‐ternal components immediately af‐ter an air bag has inflated.Do not install or place any accesso‐ries near air bag deployment areas,such as the instrument panel, win‐dows, pillars, and roof rails.

CAUTION
If the passenger’s front air bagON/OFF switch malfunctions, thepassenger’s front air bag OFF indica‐tor will not illuminate (The passeng‐er's front air bag ON indicator comeson and goes off after approximately60 seconds) and the passenger’sfront air bag will inflate in a frontalimpact even if the passenger’s frontair bag ON/OFF switch is set to theOFF position.In this case, have the passenger'sfront air bag ON/OFF switch and theSRS air bag system inspected by aprofessional workshop.Kia recommends to visit an author‐ized Kia dealer/service partner.
SRS components and functions
The SRS consists of the following com‐
ponents: 1. Driver's front air bag module *
2. Passenger's front air bag module *
3. Side air bag modules *
4. Curtain air bag modules *
5. Retractor pre-tensioner assem‐ blies *
6. Air bag warning light
7. SRS control module (SRSCM) / Roll‐ over sensor *
* if equipped 8.
Side impact sensors *
9. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch *
10. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF indicator *
The SRSCM continually monitors all SRS components while the ignition switch is
ON to determine if a crash impact is se‐
vere enough to require air bag deploy‐ ment or pre-tensioner seat belt de‐
ployment.
The SRS air bag warning light "
" on
the instrument panel will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position, af‐ ter which the SRS air bag warning light
"
" should go out.
WARNING
If any of the following conditions oc‐curs, this indicates a malfunction ofthe SRS. In this case, have the sys‐tem inspected by a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends to visitan authorized Kia dealer/servicepartner.

A fully inflated air bag, in combination
with a properly worn seat belt, slows the driver's or the passenger's forward
motion, reducing the risk of head and
chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag im‐ mediately starts deflating, enabling the
driver to maintain forward visibility and
the ability to steer or operate other controls.

WARNING
Always use seat belts and child re‐straints – every trip, every time, ev‐eryone! Air bags inflate with consid‐erable force and in the blink of aneye. Seat belts help keep occupantsin proper position to obtain maxi‐mum benefit from the air bag. Evenwith air bags, improperly belted andunbelted occupants can be severelyinjured when the air bag inflates. Al‐ways follow the precautions aboutseat belts, air bags and occupantsafety contained in this manual.To reduce the chance of serious orfatal injuries and receive the maxi‐mum safety benefit from your re‐straint system:•Never place a child in any child orbooster seat in the front seat.
•ABC – Always Buckle Children inthe back seat. It is the safest placefor children of any age to ride.
•Front and side air bags can injureoccupants improperly positioned inthe front seats.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Move your seat as far back aspractical from the front air bags,while still maintaining control ofthe vehicle.
•You and your passengers shouldnever sit or lean unnecessarilyclose to the air bags. Improperlypositioned drivers and passengerscan be severely injured by inflatingair bags.
•Never lean against the door orcenter console – always sit in anupright position.
•Do not allow a passenger to ride inthe front seat when the passeng‐er’s front air bag OFF indicator isilluminated, because the air bagwill not deploy in the event of amoderate or severe frontal crash.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•No objects should be placed overor near the air bag modules on thesteering wheel, instrument paneland the front passenger's panelabove the glove box, because anysuch object could cause harm ifthe vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the air bags todeploy.
•Do not tamper with or disconnectSRS wiring or other components ofthe SRS system. Doing so could re‐sult in injury, due to accidental de‐ployment of the air bags or byrendering the SRS inoperative.
•If the SRS air bag warning light re‐mains illuminated while the vehicleis being driven, have the systeminspected by a professional work‐shop. Kia recommends to visit anauthorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.

•Air bags can only be used once -have the system replaced by aprofessional workshop.Kia recommends to visit an au‐thorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.
•The SRS is designed to deploy thefront air bags only when an impactis sufficiently severe and when theimpact angle is less than 30° fromthe forward longitudinal axis ofthe vehicle. Additionally, the airbags will only deploy once. Seatbelts must be worn at all times.
•Front air bags are not intended todeploy in side-impact, rear-impactor rollover crashes. In addition,front air bags will not deploy infrontal crashes below the deploy‐ment threshold.
•A child restraint system must nev‐er be placed in the front seat. Theinfant or child could be severely in‐jured or killed by an air bag deploy‐ment in case of an accident.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Children age 12 and under must al‐ways be properly restrained in therear seat. Never allow children toride in the front passenger seat. Ifa child over 12 must be seated inthe front seat, he or she must beproperly belted and the seatshould be moved as far back aspossible.
•For maximum safety protection inall types of crashes, all occupantsincluding the driver should alwayswear their seat belts whether ornot an air bag is also provided attheir seating position to minimizethe risk of severe injury or death inthe event of a crash. Do not sit orlean unnecessarily close to the airbag while the vehicle is in motion.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Sitting improperly or out of posi‐tion can result in serious or fatalinjury in a crash. All occupantsshould sit upright with the seatback in an upright position, cen‐tered on the seat cushion withtheir seat belt on, legs comforta‐bly extended and their feet on thefloor until the vehicle is parked andthe ignition key is removed.
•The SRS air bag system must de‐ploy very rapidly to provide pro‐tection in a crash. If an occupant isout of position because of notwearing a seat belt, the air bagmay forcefully contact the occu‐pant causing serious or fatal inju‐ries.
