WARNING
Even though your vehicle is
equipped with the occupant clas-
sification system, do not install a
child restraint system in the front
passenger seat. The child could
be severely injured or killed if the
air bag deploys. Children are
afforded the most protection in
the event of an accident when
they are restrained by the proper
restraint system in the rear seat.
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator is illuminated
when the front passenger's seat
is occupied by a person of adult
size who is seated properly, or if
the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator" is not illuminated when
the front passenger's seat is
unoccupied or occupied by a very
small person, the occupant clas-
sification system is not working
properly. Have your vehicle imme-
diately inspected by your Kia
dealer if the occupant classifica-
tion system is not working prop-
erly.

(Continued)
If a very low weight adult is seat-ed in the front passenger seat, the
occupant classification system
may or may not turn off the right
front passenger air bag, depend-
ing upon the person's seating
position and body type. Everyone
in your vehicle should wear a
safety belt properly -- whether or
not there is an air bag for that per-
son.
If the front seat passenger changes their seating position
(for example, by not sitting
upright, by sitting on the edge of
the seat, or by otherwise being
out of position), the "PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF" indicator may
be turned on, and the passenger
air bag may not deploy in a colli-
sion. Always be sure to sit prop-
erly in the front passenger seat
and wear the safety belt properly
and do not do any of the follow-
ing.
(Continued)CAUTION
If the occupant classification sys-tem is not working properly, the airbag warning light on the instrumentpanel will illuminate because thepassenger’s air bag is connectedwith the occupant classification system. If there is a malfunction ofthe occupant classification system,the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"indicator will not illuminate and thefront passenger's air bag will deployin either a side or frontal crasheseven if there is child or no occupantin the front passenger's seat.
Have an authorized Kia dealerinspect the occupant classificationsystem with the SRS air bag system as soon as possible if any of follow-ing occur;
The SRS air bag warning light does not illuminate when the igni-tion key is turned to "ON" posi-tion.
The SRS air bag warning light remains illuminated after illumi-nating or blinking for approxi-mately 6 seconds.
The SRS air bag warning light illu- minates while the vehicle is beingdriven.

The advanced SRS offers the ability to
control the air bag inflation with two lev-
els. A first stage level is provided for mod-
erate-severity impacts. A second stage
level is provided for more severe impacts.
According to the impact severity, seating
position and safety belt usage, the
SRSCM (SRS Control Module) controls
the air bag inflation. Failure to properly
wear safety belts can increase the risk
or severity of injury in an accident.
Additionally, your SRS is equipped with
an occupant classification system in the
front passenger’s seat. The occupant
classification system detects the pres-
ence of a passenger in the front passen-
ger’s seat and will turn off the front pas-
senger’s air bag under certain conditions.
For more detail, see “Occupant
Classification System” in this section.CAUTION
If the seat position sensor is not working properly, the SRS air bagwarning light on the instrumentpanel will illuminate even if there isno malfunction of the SRS air bag system, because the SRS air bagwarning light is connected with theseat position sensor. If the SRS airbag warning light does not illumi-nate when the ignition key is turnedto the "ON" position, if it remainsilluminated after illuminating orblinking for approximately 6 sec-onds, or if it illuminates while the vehicle is being driven, have anauthorized Kia dealer inspect theseat position sensor and theadvanced SRS air bag system assoon as possible.WARNING
Modification to the seat structure can adversely affect the seat
position sensor and cause the air
bag to deploy at a different level
than should be provided.
Failure to properly wear safety belts can increase the risk or
severity of injury by causing the
air bags to deploy at a different
level than should be provided.
Do not place any objects under- neath the front seats which could
damage the seat position sensor
or interfere with the occupant
classification system.
Do not place any objects that may cause magnetic fields near the
front seat. These may cause a
malfunction of the seat position
sensor.
