Knowing your vehicle
The SRS uses a collection of sen-
sors to gather information about the
driver’s and front passenger’ s seat
position, the driver’ s and front pas-
senger’ s safety belt usage and
impact severity.
The driver’ s and front passenger’ s
seat position sensors, which are
installed on the seat track, determine
if the seats are fore or aft of a refer-
ence position. Similarly, the safety
belt usage sensors determine if the
driver and front passenger’ s safety
belts are fastened. These sensors
provide the ability to control the SRS
deployment based on how close the
driver’ s seat is to the steering wheel,
how close the passenger’ s seat is to
the instrument panel, whether or not
the safety belts are fastened, and
how severe is the impact. The advanced SRS offers the ability
to control the airbag inflation with two
levels. A first stage level is provided
for moderate-severity impacts. A sec-
ond stage level is provided for more
severe impacts.
The SRSCM (SRS Control Module)
controls the airbag inflation in accor-
dance with impact severity, seating
position and safety belt usage.
Additionally, your SRS is equipped
with an occupant classification sys-
tem in the front passenger’
s seat.
The occupant classification system
detects the presence of a passenger
in the front passenger’ s seat and will
turn off the front passenger ’s airbag
under certain conditions. For more
detail, see “Occupant Classification
System” later in this section.
CAUTION
If the seat position sensor is not
working properly, the SRS
airbag warning light ( ) on the
instrument panel will illuminate
even if there is no malfunction
of the SRS airbag system,
because the SRS airbag warn-
ing light is connected with the
seat position sensor. If the SRS
airbag warning light does not
illuminate when the ignition key
is turned to the "ON" position, if
it remains illuminated after
blinking for approximately 6
seconds, or if it illuminates
while the vehicle is being driv-
en, have an authorized Kia deal-
er inspect the seat position sen-
sor and the advanced SRS
airbag system as soon as possi-
ble.

Driver’s airbagThe driver’ s airbag is stored in the
center of the steering wheel.
WARNING
 Modification to the seat struc- ture can adversely affect the
seat position sensor and
cause the airbag to deploy at a
different level than should be
provided.
 Do not place any objects underneath the front seats
that could damage the seat
position sensor or interfere
with the occupant classifica-
tion 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.

(Continued)
 Ignoring the SRS indictor light(airbag indicator and passen-
ger airbag off indicator) can
result in serious or fatal injury
if the airbags occupant classi-
fication system or pretension-
ers do not work properly. Have
your car checked by a dealer
as soon as possible if the SRS
warning light alerts you to a
potential problem.
 Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. All
occupants should sit upright
in their seats with their feet on
the floor until the vehicle is
parked and the ignition key is
removed.

The "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF"
indicator illuminates after the igni-
tion key is turned to the "ON" posi-
tion or after the engine is started. If
the front passenger seat is unoc-
cupied or is occupied by very small
person, or is occupied by someone
who is improperly seated, the
"PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" indi-
cator will remain illuminated. If the
front passenger seat is occupied
by someone of adult size and body
shape, the "PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF" indicator will turn off after 6
seconds.
 If the "PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF" indicator illuminates, neither
the front passenger front airbag
nor front passenger side airbag will
deploy in either a side or frontal
collision.
 If the "PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF" indicator is not illuminated,
the front passenger front airbag
and front passenger side airbag
may deploy in either a side or
frontal collision.

Devices
*1The system detects a person who is generally adult size as an adult, thus allowing the pas-
senger airbag to deploy. When a smaller adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may
detect their body shape as that of a child, thus preventing airbag deployment.
*2When a larger child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as an adult depending on his/her body shape or seating
position, thus permitting airbag deployment.
CAUTION
If the "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" indicator illuminates or blinks con-
tinuously when a person of adult size sits in the front passenger's
seat , it could be because that person isn't sitting properly in the
seat.If this happens, turn the vehicle off, make sure the seat back is
not reclined, have the passenger center on the seat cushion, with legs
comfortably extended, and the safety belt properly positioned. Restart
the vehicle and have the person remain in this position long enough
to allow the system to detect the person and activate the passenger
airbag.

(Continued)
 If the "PASSENGER AIRBAG
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 "PASSEN-
GER AIRBAG OFF" indicator"
is not illuminated when the
front passenger's seat is
unoccupied or occupied by a
very small person, the occu-
pant classification system is
not working properly. Have
your vehicle immediately
inspected by your Kia dealer if
the occupant classification
system is not working proper-
ly.
(Continued)
CAUTION
If the occupant classification
system is not working properly,
the airbag warning light ( ) on
the instrument panel will illumi-
nate. If there is a malfunction of
the occupant classification sys-
tem, the "PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF" indicator will not illumi-
nate and the front passenger's
airbag will deploy in frontal
crashes even if there is an adult
sized occupant in the front pas-
senger seat. If the SRS airbag
warning light does not illumi-
nate when the ignition key is
turned to "ON" position, if it
remains illuminated after blink-
ing for approximately six sec-
onds, or if it illuminates while
the vehicle is being driven, have
an authorized Kia dealer inspect
the occupant classification sys-
tem with the SRS airbag system
as soon as possible.
WARNING
If the front passenger seat
should be modified for persons
with disabilities that may affect
the operation of the occupant
classification system, contact
an authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING
 Even though your vehicle isequipped with the occupant
classification system, do not
install a child restraint system
in the front passenger seat.
The child could be severely
injured or killed if the airbag
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.

Trunk lid knob lock
(if equipped)The trunk lid lock knob (located near
the latch) is in the “LOCK ( )”posi-
tion when the trunk lid is closed, it
will not be possible to open the trunk
lid by using the remote release. In
this instance, use the master key to
unlock and open the trunk lid. To
allow the trunk lid to be opened with
the remote release, push the trunk
lid lock knob down, then to the oppo-
site direction of the “LOCK ( )”
position.
WARNING
No one should be allowed to
occupy the trunk of the vehicle
at any time. If the trunk is par-
tially or totally latched and the
person is unable to get out,
severe injury or death could
occur due to lack of ventilation,
exhaust fumes and rapid heat
build-up, or because of expo-
sure to cold weather conditions.
The trunk is also a highly dan-
gerous location in the event of a
crash because it is not a pro-
tected occupant space but
merely a part of the vehicle’s
crush zone.
CAUTION
 If a person is locked in the trunk, they can pull the emer-
gency release to open the
trunk lid.
 We recommend that cars be kept locked and keys be kept
out of the reach of children,
and that parents teach their
children about the dangers of
playing in trunks.
