WARNING
To obtain maximum benefit from
a pre-tensioner seat belt:
The seat belt must be worn
correctly.
The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position.
CAUTION
When the pre-tensioner seatbelts are activated, a loud noisemay be heard and fine dust,which may appear to be smoke,may be visible in the passengercompartment and are not toxic.
Although, it is harmless, the finedust may cause skin irritationand should not be breathed forprolonged periods. Wash yourhands and face thoroughly afteran accident in which the airbags and/or pre-tensioner seatbelts were activated.
CAUTION
Because the sensor that acti- vates the SRS air bag is con-nected with pre-tensioner seatbelt, the SRS air bag warninglight on the instrument panelwill blink or illuminate forapproximately 6 seconds afterthe ignition key has beenturned to the “ON” position,then the light should go off.
If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, thiswarning light will illuminateeven if there is no malfunctionof SRS air bag system. If theSRS air bag warning lightdoes not illuminate when theignition key is turned to “ON” ,or if it remains illuminatedafter blinking or illuminatingfor approximately 6 seconds,or if it illuminates while thevehicle is being driven, pleasehave an authorized Kia dealerinspect the pre-tensioner seatbelt or SRS air bag system assoon as possible.

Air bag system components The main components of your SRS
are:
To indicate that your vehicle is
equipped with air bags, the corre-
sponding air bag covers are
marked with “SRS AIR BAG”.
- Driver’ s air bag
- Passenger’ s air bag
- Side air bag
- Curtain air bag
A diagnostic system that continual-
ly monitors the 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 dis-
connected in a crash. 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 air bag inflation with
two levels. A first stage level is pro-
vided for moderate-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 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 air bag
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 theinstrument panel will illuminateeven if there is no malfunctionof the SRS air bag system,because the SRS air bag warn-ing light is connected with theseat position sensor. If the SRSair bag warning light does notilluminate when the ignition keyis turned to the "ON" position, ifit remains illuminated afterblinking for approximately 6seconds, or if it illuminateswhile 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.
WARNING
Modification to the seat struc- ture 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 dif-
ferent level than should be
provided.
Do not place any objects underneath the front seats
which 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)
(Continued)
Ignoring the SRS indicatorlight (air bag indicator and
passenger air bag off indica-
tor) can result in serious or
fatal injury if the air bags
occupant classification sys-
tem or pretensioners 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.

Knowing your vehicle
Driver’s air bagThe driver’s air bag is stored in the
center of the steering wheel.
Front passenger’s air bagFront passenger’ s air bag is stored in
the instrument panel on the glove
box.
Since you cannot anticipate which air
bags will deploy or from what direc-
tion, never put any objects or orna-
ments on the instrument panel.
WARNING
You must always sit as far back from the steering wheel
air bag as possible (chest at
least 10 inches (250 mm) away
from the steering wheel), while
still maintaining a comfortable
seating position for good
vehicle control, in order to
reduce the risk of injury or
death in a collision.
Never place objects over the air bag storage compartments
or between the air bags and
yourself. Due to the speed and
force of the air bag inflation,
such objects could hit your
body at high speed and cause
severe bodily injury and even
death.
Do not put stickers or orna- ments on the steering wheel
cover. These may interfere
with the deployment of the air
bag.

Occupant classification systemThe occupant classification system
detects the presence of a passenger
in the front passenger's seat and will
turn off the front passenger's air bag
under certain conditions.
The occupant classification system is
designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated occupant and deter-
mine if the front passenger's air bag
should be enabled (may inflate) or
not.
Only the front passenger airbag is
controlled by the Occupant
Classification System.
Main components of occupant
classification system A detection device located within
the front passenger seat cushion.
Electronic system to determine
whether passenger air bag system
should be activated or deactivated.
A indicator light located on the
instrument panel which illuminates
the words "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicating the frontal passen-
ger air bag system is deactivated.
The instrument panel air bag warn-
ing light is interconnected with the
occupant classification system. If there is no passenger in the front
passenger seat or if the passenger in
the front passenger seat is very light,
(such as a child), the front
PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF indicator may
illuminate.
When this indicator is ON, the front
passenger front air bag will not
deploy.

Knowing your vehicle
Always be sure that you and all vehi-
cle occupants are seated and
restrained properly (sitting upright
with the seat in an upright position,
centered on the seat cushion, with
the person's legs comfortably
extended, feet on the floor, and wear-
ing the safety belt properly) for the
most effective protection by the air
bag and the safety belt.
The OCS may not function proper-
ly if the passenger takes actions
which can defeat the detection sys-
tem. These include:
(1) Failing to sit in an upright posi- tion.
(2) Leaning against the door or cen- ter console.
(3) Sitting towards the sides or the front of the seat.
(4) Putting legs on the dashboard or resting them on other locations
which reduce the passenger
weight on the front seat.
(5) Improperly wearing the safety
belt.
(6) Reclining the seat back.
The “PASSENGER AIR BAG 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's seat is occu-
pied by a very small person or is
occupied by someone who is
improperly seated, the “PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF” indicator will
remain illuminated and the front
passenger air bag will not deploy in
frontal crashes. If the front passen-
ger’ s seat is occupied by an adult
size person seated properly, the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indi-
cator will turn off after approxi-
mately 4 seconds and the front
passenger's air bag will deploy in
frontal collision.
CAUTION
If the occupant classification system is not working properly,the air bag warning light ( ) onthe instrument panel will illumi-nate. If there is a malfunction ofthe occupant classification sys-tem, the "PASSENGER AIR BAGOFF" indicator will not illumi-nate and the front passenger'sair bag will deploy in frontalcrashes even if there is child orno occupant in the front pas-senger’s seat. If the SRS air bagwarning light does not illumi-nate when the ignition key isturned to "ON" position, if itremains illuminated after blink-ing for approximately six sec-onds, or if it illuminates whilethe vehicle is being driven, havean authorized Kia dealer inspectthe occupant classification sys-tem with the SRS air bag systemas soon as possible.

Side air bag (if equipped)Side air bags are stored in the left
side of the driver’ s seat and right side
of the front passenger’ s seat.
If air bag inflation conditions are met
(side collision), they will inflate.
1LDA2056
1LDN2050/1LDN2051
(Continued)
If the driver brakes the vehicle heavily prior to an impact,
unbelted occupants will be
thrown forward. If the front
passenger is not wearing the
safety belts, they will be
directly in front of the air bag
when deployment occurs. In
that situation, serious injury
or death is possible.
Never allow front passenger to put their hands, feet or face
on or close to the instrument
panel. In the event of air bag
deployment, such a misposi-
tioned occupant would be
likely to suffer severe injury or
death.
Never allow children, pregnant women or weak persons to sit
in the front passenger seat.
They may be seriously injured
by the air bag inflation when
air bag deploys.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not use child restraint sys-tems on the front passenger's
seat, as inflation may cause
death or severe personal
injury.
Do not put objects or stickers on the instrument panel. Do
not apply any accessory to the
front windshield. Do not install
aftermarket mirrors or acces-
sories on the factory-installed
rearview mirror. Any of these
could interfere with the
deployment of the air bag or
could hit your body at high
speed and cause severe bodi-
ly injury and even death.
