Airbag warning light
The purpose of airbag warning light
in your instrument panel is to alert
you of a potential problem with your

onds, then go off.
Have the system checked if:
 The light does not turn on briefly
when you turn the ignition ON.
 The light stays on after the engine starts.
 The light comes on while the vehi- cle is in motion. Airbag (Supplemental
Restraint System) service
Your 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 airbag ever inflates, the airbag
must be replaced. Do not try to
remove or discard the airbag by
yourself. This must be done by an
authorized Kia dealer.
 If the airbag warning indicator light alerts you to a problem, have the
airbag system checked as soon as
possible. Otherwise, your airbag
system may be ineffective.
