Do not install or place any accessories (drink holder, cas-
sette holder, sticker, etc.) on the
front passenger's panel above
the glove box in a vehicle with a
passenger's air bag. Such

Passenger’s front air bag (if equipped)(Continued)It may become a dangerous
projectile and cause injury if
the passenger's air baginflates.
WARNING
If an air bag deploys, there may be a loud noise followed
by a fine dust released in the
vehicle. These conditions are
normal 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 thorough-
ly with cold water and mildsoap after an accident in
which the air bags were
deployed.

(Continued)
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 while driving, the
SRS is not working properly. If
this occurs, we recommendthat the system be inspected
by an authorized 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
switch is in the ON position.
Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS air bag
warning light to illuminate.

The transmitter is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio station or
an airport which can interfere with
normal operation of the transmitter.
If the transmitter is in close proximi- ty to your cell phone or smart phone,
the signal from the transmitter could
be blocked by normal operation of
your cell phone or smart phone. This
is especially important when the
phone is active such as making call,
receiving calls, text messaging,
and/or sending/ receiving emails. Avoid placing the transmitter and
your cell phone or smart phone in
the same pants or jacket pocket andmaintain adequate distance
between the two devices.
