Curtain air bag (if equipped)
Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the center pillar. They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear outboard seat occupants in certain side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash se‐ verity, angle, speed and impact. The
curtain air bags are not designed to de‐
ploy in all side impact situations, colli‐ sions from the front or rear of the ve‐
hicle or in most rollover situations.

❈The actual air bag collision sensors
in the vehicle may differ from the
illustration.
Why didn’t my air bag go off in a colli‐sion? (Inflation and non-inflation condi‐tions of the air bag)There are many types of accidents inwhich the air bag would not be expec‐ted to provide additional protection.These include rear impacts, second orthird collisions in multiple impact acci‐dents, as well as low speed impacts.
1. SRS control module / Rollover sen‐ sor (if equipped)
2. Front impact sensor
3. Side impact sensor (if equipped)
4. Side impact sensor (if equipped)
WARNING
•Do not hit or allow any objects toimpact the locations where airbags or sensors are installed.This may cause unexpected airbag deployment, which could re‐sult in serious personal injury ordeath.

SRS care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and so there are no parts you can safe‐
ly service by yourself. If the SRS air bag warning light does not illuminate, or
continuously remains on, have the sys‐
tem inspected by a professional work‐ shop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
•Modification to SRS components orwiring, including the addition ofany kind of badges to the pad cov‐ers or modifications to the bodystructure, can adversely affectSRS performance and lead to pos‐sible injury.
•For cleaning the air bag pad cov‐ers, use only a soft, dry cloth orone which has been moistenedwith plain water. Solvents or clean‐ers could adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deploymentof the system.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•No objects should be placed overor near the air bag modules on thesteering wheel, instrument panel,and 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 to in‐flate.
•If the air bags inflate, have thesystem replaced by a professionalworkshop.Kia recommends to visit an au‐thorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.
•Do not tamper with or disconnectSRS wiring, or other componentsof the SRS system. Doing so couldresult in injury, due to accidentalinflation of the air bags or by ren‐dering the SRS inoperative.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•If components of the air bag sys‐tem must be discarded, or if thevehicle must be scrapped, certainsafety precautions must be ob‐served. An authorized Kia dealerknows these precautions and cangive you the necessary informa‐tion. Failure to follow these pre‐cautions and procedures could in‐crease the risk of personal injury.
•If your car was flooded and hassoaked carpeting or water onflooring, you shouldn't try to startthe engine; in this case, have yourvehicle inspected by a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends tocontact an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Additional safety precautions
•Never let passengers ride in the cargoarea or on top of a folded-down backseat. All occupants should sit upright,
fully back in their seats with their
seat belts on and their feet on the
floor.

•Passengers should not move out ofor change seats while the vehicle ismoving. A passenger who is not
wearing a seat belt during a crash or
emergency stop can be thrown
against the inside of the vehicle,
against other occupants, or out of
the vehicle.
•
Each seat belt is designed to restrainone occupant. If more than one per‐
son uses the same seat belt, they
could be seriously injured or killed in a
collision.
•
Do not use any accessories on seatbelts. Devices claiming to improve oc‐
cupant comfort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provi‐
ded by the seat belt and increase the
chance of serious injury in a crash.
•
Passengers should not place hard orsharp objects between themselvesand the air bags. Carrying hard or
sharp objects on your lap or in your
mouth can result in injuries if an air
bag inflates. •
Keep occupants away from the airbag covers.
All occupants should sit
upright, fully back in their seats with
their seat belts on and their feet on
the floor. If occupants are too close
to the air bag covers, they could be injured if the air bags inflate.
•
Do not attach or place objects on ornear the air bag covers. Any object
attached to or placed on the front or
side air bag covers could interfere with the proper operation of the air
bags.
•
Do not modify the front seats. Modi‐
fication of the front seats could in‐
terfere with the operation of the
supplemental restraint system sens‐ ing components or side air bags.
•
Do not place items under the frontseats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the opera‐
tion of the supplemental restraint
system sensing components and wir‐ ing harnesses.
•
Never hold an infant or child on yourlap. The infant or child could be seri‐
ously injured or killed in the event of
a crash. All infants and children should be properly restrained in ap‐
propriate child safety seats or seat
belts in the rear seat.
WARNING
•Sitting improperly or out of posi‐tion can cause occupants to beshifted too close to a deploying airbag, strike the interior structureor be thrown from the vehicle re‐sulting in serious injury or death.
•Always sit upright with the seat‐back in an upright position, cen‐tered on the seat cushion withyour seat belt on, legs comfortablyextended and your feet on thefloor.
Adding equipment to or
modifying your air bag-
equipped vehicle
If you modify your vehicle by changing
your vehicle's frame, bumper system, front end or side sheet metal or ride
height, this may affect the operation of
your vehicle's air bag system.
