CAUTION
If the seat position sensor is not
working properly, the SRS air
bag warning light ( ) on the
instrument panel will illuminate
even if there is no malfunction
of the SRS air bag system,
because the SRS air bag warn-
ing light is connected with the
seat position sensor. If the SRS
air bag 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 air
bag 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.

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
