SRS components and functions
The SRS consists of the following com‐
ponents: 1. Driver's front air bag module *
2. Passenger's front air bag module *
3. Side air bag modules *
4. Curtain air bag modules *
5. Retractor pre-tensioner assem‐ blies *
6. Air bag warning light
7. SRS control module (SRSCM) / Roll‐ over sensor *
* if equipped 8.
Side impact sensors *
9. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch *
10. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF indicator *
The SRSCM continually monitors all SRS components while the ignition switch is
ON to determine if a crash impact is se‐
vere enough to require air bag deploy‐ ment or pre-tensioner seat belt de‐
ployment.
The SRS air bag warning light "
" on
the instrument panel will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position, af‐ ter which the SRS air bag warning light
"
" should go out.

WARNING
Always use seat belts and child re‐straints – every trip, every time, ev‐eryone! Air bags inflate with consid‐erable force and in the blink of aneye. Seat belts help keep occupantsin proper position to obtain maxi‐mum benefit from the air bag. Evenwith air bags, improperly belted andunbelted occupants can be severelyinjured when the air bag inflates. Al‐ways follow the precautions aboutseat belts, air bags and occupantsafety contained in this manual.To reduce the chance of serious orfatal injuries and receive the maxi‐mum safety benefit from your re‐straint system:•Never place a child in any child orbooster seat in the front seat.
•ABC – Always Buckle Children inthe back seat. It is the safest placefor children of any age to ride.
•Front and side air bags can injureoccupants improperly positioned inthe front seats.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Move your seat as far back aspractical from the front air bags,while still maintaining control ofthe vehicle.
•You and your passengers shouldnever sit or lean unnecessarilyclose to the air bags. Improperlypositioned drivers and passengerscan be severely injured by inflatingair bags.
•Never lean against the door orcenter console – always sit in anupright position.
•Do not allow a passenger to ride inthe front seat when the passeng‐er’s front air bag OFF indicator isilluminated, because the air bagwill not deploy in the event of amoderate or severe frontal crash.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•No objects should be placed overor near the air bag modules on thesteering wheel, instrument paneland the front passenger's panelabove the glove box, because anysuch object could cause harm ifthe vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the air bags todeploy.
•Do not tamper with or disconnectSRS wiring or other components ofthe SRS system. Doing so could re‐sult in injury, due to accidental de‐ployment of the air bags or byrendering the SRS inoperative.
•If the SRS air bag warning light re‐mains illuminated while the vehicleis being driven, have the systeminspected by a professional work‐shop. Kia recommends to visit anauthorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.

•Never install a rearward facingchild seat on the front passenger'sseat unless the passenger's frontair bag has been deactivated. Theinfant or child could be severely in‐jured or killed by an air bag deploy‐ment in case of an accident.
•Even though your vehicle is equip‐ped with the passenger's front airbag ON/OFF switch, do not install achild restraint system in the frontpassenger's seat. A child restraintsystem must never be placed inthe front seat. Children who aretoo large for child restraint sys‐tems should always occupy therear seat and use the available lap/shoulder belts.

SRS care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and so there are no parts you can safe‐
ly service by yourself. If the SRS air bag warning light does not illuminate, or
continuously remains on, have the sys‐
tem inspected by a professional work‐ shop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
•Modification to SRS components orwiring, including the addition ofany kind of badges to the pad cov‐ers or modifications to the bodystructure, can adversely affectSRS performance and lead to pos‐sible injury.
•For cleaning the air bag pad cov‐ers, use only a soft, dry cloth orone which has been moistenedwith plain water. Solvents or clean‐ers could adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deploymentof the system.

•No objects should be placed overor near the air bag modules on thesteering wheel, instrument panel,and the front passenger's panelabove the glove box, because anysuch object could cause harm ifthe vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the air bags to in‐flate.
•If the air bags inflate, have thesystem replaced by a professionalworkshop.Kia recommends to visit an au‐thorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.
•Do not tamper with or disconnectSRS wiring, or other componentsof the SRS system. Doing so couldresult in injury, due to accidentalinflation of the air bags or by ren‐dering the SRS inoperative.
