3) Sub key
Similar to the master key, this key
will only function in the ignition and
the door locks, but it will not operate
the trunk and the glove box.
One side of the key has the Kia logo
and the other side has the “S”
symbol.
IMMOBILIZER SYSTEMYour vehicle is equipped with an
electronic engine immobilizer system to
reduce the risk of unauthorized vehicle
use.
Your immobilizer system is comprised
of a small transponder in the ignition
key, and antenna coil in the key cylinder
and IU (Immobilizer Unit) in the
instrument panel.
With this system, whenever you insert
your ignition key into the ignition switch
and turn it to ON, the antenna coil in the
ignition switch receives a signal from the
transponder in the ignition key and then
sends the signal to the IU (Immobilizer
Unit).
The IU (Immobilizer Unit) checks the
signal and determines whether the
ignition key is valid.
If the key is determined to be valid, the
engine will start.
If the key is determined to be invalid, the
engine will not start.To deactivate the immobilizer system:
Insert the ignition key into the key
cylinder and turn it to the ON position.
To activate the immobilizer system:
Turn the ignition key to the OFF
position. The immobilizer system
activates automatically. Without a valid
ignition key for your vehicle, the engine
will not start.

CAUTION
Don’t lose your ID key or forget the
password.
Always keep your ID key in a place
where you remember and record
your password. If you don’t have
both the password and ID key,
consult your authorized Kia dealer.
✻
NOTICE
When starting the engine, do not
use the key with other immobilizer
keys around. Otherwise the engine
may not start or may stop soon
after it starts. Keep each key
separately not to have any
malfunction after you receive your
new vehicle.

✻
NOTICE
• Both the driver’s and front
passenger’s pre-tensioner seat
belts will be activated in certain
frontal collisions. The pre-
tensioner seat belts can be
activated alone or, where the
frontal collision is severe enough,
with the airbags. The pre-
tensioners will be activated
under these conditions even if
the seat belts are not being worn
at the time of the collision.
• When the pre-tensioner seat
belts are activated, a loud noise
may be heard and fine dust,
which may appear to be smoke,
may be visible in the passenger
compartment. This dust is not
hazardous.
• Although it is harmless, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation
and should not be breathed for
prolonged periods. Wash your
hands and face thoroughly after
an accident in which the
pretensioner seat belts were
activated.
CAUTION
• Because the sensor that activates
the SRS airbag is connected with
pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS
airbag warning light on the
instrument panel will blink for
approximately 6 seconds after
the ignition key has turned to the
“ON” or “ACC” positions. After
the six second period, the air bag
warning light will turn off.
• Please have the SRS airbag
system and the pre-tensioner
system inspected by an
Authorized Kia Dealer if the
following conditions occur:
1. The SRS warning light does
not illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned to
“ON” or “ACC”.
2. When the ignition switch is
turned to “ON” or “ACC” the
SRS warning light stays lit
after blinking for
approximately 6 second.
3. The SRS warning light illum-
inates while the vehicle is being
driven.
AIR
BAG
WARNING
 Pre-tensioners are designed
to operate only one time.
After activation, pretensioner
seat belts must be replaced.
All seat belts, of any type,
should always be replaced
after they have been worn
during a collision.
 The Pre-tensioner seat belt
assembly mechanisms
become hot during
activation. Do not touch the
pre-tensioner seat belt
assemblies for several
minutes after they have been
activated.
 Do not attempt to inspect or
replace the pre-tensioner
seat belts yourself. This
must be done by an
Authorized Kia Dealer.
 Do not strike the pre-
tensioner seat belt
assemblies.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
3-44AIR BAG SYSTEM
COMPONENTSThe main components of your vehicle’s
SRS are:
• One air bag in the steering wheel for
the driver, and another in the
dashboard for the front passenger.
• A diagnostic system that continually
monitors system operation.
• An indicator light to warn you of a
possible problem with the system.
• Emergency power backup in case
your car’s electrical system is
disconnected in a crash.To indicate that your vehicle is equipped
with air bags, the air bag covers on the
steering wheel and on the dashboard are
marked with “SRS AIR BAG.”
HOW THE AIR BAG SYSTEM
WORKSThe driver’s air bag is stored in the
center of the steering wheel. The
passenger side air bag is stored in the
front instrument panel above the glove
box.
If you ever have a severe frontal
collision, your air bags will instantly
inflate to help protect you from serious
physical injury.
There is no single vehicle speed at which
the air bags will inflate. Generally, air
bags are designed to inflate in severe
frontal collisions. The air bag
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
reacts to the severity of a collision and its
direction. These two factors determine
whether the sensors send out an
electronic deployment or inflation signal.
Whether the air bags will inflate depends
on a number of factors including vehicle
speed, angle of impact and the density
and stiffness of the vehicles or objects
that your vehicle hits in the collision.

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTThe 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).
Have the system checked if:
• The light does not illuminate when
you turn the ignition ON.
• The light stays ON after the engine
starts.
• The light comes ON or flashes while
you are driving.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM SERVICEYour Supplemental Restraint System is
virtually maintenance-free. There are no
parts which you can service.
You must have the system serviced
under the following circumstances:
• If an air bag ever inflates, the air bag
must be replaced. Do not try to
remove or discard the air bag by
yourself.
This must be done by an Authorized
Kia Dealer.
• If the air bag warning indicator light
alerts you of a problem, have the air
bag system checked as soon as
possible. Otherwise, your air bag
might not inflate when you need it.
The entire SRS system must be inspected
by an authorized Kia dealer 10 years
after the vehicle manufacture date.
AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT
AIR
BAG
AS2B03035
 Do not use excessive force
on the side of the seat.
 Do not place any objects
over the airbag or between
the airbag and yourself.
 Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag,etc.) between
the front door and the front
seat. Such objects may
become dangerous projectiles
and cause injury if the side air
bag inflates.
 To prevent unexpected
deploy-ment of the side air
bag that may result in
personal injury, avoid impact
to the side airbag sensor
when the ignition key is
“ON”.
