How does the air bag system
operate
• Air bags are activated (able to inflateif necessary) only when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON or START position.
• Air bags inflate instantly in the event of a serious frontal collision or side
collision (if equipped with a side air
bag or curtain air bag) in order to
help protect the occupants from seri‐ ous physical injury.
NOTICE
nIf equipped with rollover sen‐
sor
(Continued)
(Continued)
Also, the air bags inflate instantly in
the event of a rollover (if equipped
with a side air bag or curtain air bag)
in order to help protect the occu‐
pants from serious physical injury.
• In normal conditions, the airbag is de‐ signed to deploy based on certain an‐
gle and intensity of the collision. These two factors are crucial ele‐
ments for deciding whether to trans‐
mit airbag deployment signal or start
the electrical operation or not.
• The airbag will deploy based on angle and intensity of the collision. It willnot deploy in every crash or collision
situations.
• The front air bags will completely in‐ flate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to
see the air bags inflate during an ac‐
cident.
It is much more likely that you will simply see the deflated air bags
hanging out of their storage com‐
partments after the collision. • In order to help provide protection in
a severe collision, the air bags mustinflate rapidly. The speed of the air
bag inflation is a consequence of ex‐
tremely short time in which a collision
occurs and the need to inflate the air
bag between the occupant and the vehicle structures before the occu‐
pant impacts those structures.
This speed of inflation reduces the
risk of serious or life-threatening in‐
juries in a severe collision and is thus
a necessary part of the air bag de‐ sign.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include facial
abrasions, bruises and broken bones
because the inflation speed also cau‐ ses the air bags to expand with a
great deal of force.
•
There are even circumstances underwhich contact with the steeringwheel air bag can cause fatal injuries,especially if the occupant is posi‐tioned excessively close to the steer‐ing wheel.

The purpose of the air bag warning
light in your instrument panel is to alert
you of a potential problem with your air bag - Supplemental Restraint Sys‐
tem (SRS).
When the ignition switch is turned ON,
the warning light should illuminate for approximately 6 seconds, then go off.
Have the system checked if: • The light does not turn on briefly when you turn the ignition ON.
• The light stays on after illuminating for approximately 6 seconds.
• The light comes on while the vehicle is in motion. • The light blinks when the ignition
switch is in ON position.

CAUTION
If the passenger’s front air bagON/OFF switch malfunctions, thepassenger’s front air bag OFF indica‐tor will not illuminate (The passeng‐er's front air bag ON indicator comeson and goes off after approximately60 seconds) and the passenger’sfront air bag will inflate in a frontalimpact even if the passenger’s frontair bag ON/OFF switch is set to theOFF position.In this case, have the passenger'sfront air bag ON/OFF switch and theSRS air bag system inspected by aprofessional workshop.Kia recommends to visit an author‐ized Kia dealer/service partner.
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
If any of the following conditions oc‐curs, this indicates a malfunction ofthe SRS. In this case, have the sys‐tem inspected by a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends to visitan authorized Kia dealer/servicepartner.

The air bag modules are located both in
the center of the steering wheel and in the front passenger's panel above the
glove box. When the SRSCM detects a
sufficiently severe impact to the front of the vehicle, it will automatically de‐
ploy the front air bags.

Upon deployment, tear seams molded
directly into the pad covers will sepa‐ rate under pressure from the expan‐
sion of the air bags. Further opening of
the covers then allows full inflation of the air bags.

•Air bags can only be used once -have the system replaced by aprofessional workshop.Kia recommends to visit an au‐thorized Kia dealer/service part‐ner.
•The SRS is designed to deploy thefront air bags only when an impactis sufficiently severe and when theimpact angle is less than 30° fromthe forward longitudinal axis ofthe vehicle. Additionally, the airbags will only deploy once. Seatbelts must be worn at all times.
•Front air bags are not intended todeploy in side-impact, rear-impactor rollover crashes. In addition,front air bags will not deploy infrontal crashes below the deploy‐ment threshold.
•A child restraint system must nev‐er be placed in the front seat. Theinfant or child could be severely in‐jured or killed by an air bag deploy‐ment in case of an accident.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Children age 12 and under must al‐ways be properly restrained in therear seat. Never allow children toride in the front passenger seat. Ifa child over 12 must be seated inthe front seat, he or she must beproperly belted and the seatshould be moved as far back aspossible.
•For maximum safety protection inall types of crashes, all occupantsincluding the driver should alwayswear their seat belts whether ornot an air bag is also provided attheir seating position to minimizethe risk of severe injury or death inthe event of a crash. Do not sit orlean unnecessarily close to the airbag while the vehicle is in motion.

•Sitting improperly or out of posi‐tion can result in serious or fatalinjury in a crash. All occupantsshould sit upright with the seatback in an upright position, cen‐tered on the seat cushion withtheir seat belt on, legs comforta‐bly extended and their feet on thefloor until the vehicle is parked andthe ignition key is removed.
•The SRS air bag system must de‐ploy very rapidly to provide pro‐tection in a crash. If an occupant isout of position because of notwearing a seat belt, the air bagmay forcefully contact the occu‐pant causing serious or fatal inju‐ries.
