Safety features of your vehicle WARNING Always use seat belts and child restraints – every trip, every time, everyone! Air bags inflate with considerable force and in the blink of an eye. Seat belts help keep occupants in proper position to obtain maximum benefit from the air bag. Even with advanced air bags, improperly and unbelted occupants can be severely injured when the air bag inflates. Always follow the precautions about seat belts, air bags and occupant safety contained in this manual.
Safety features of your vehicle (Continued) • If the SRS air bag warning light remains illuminated while the vehicle is being driven, have an authorized Kia dealer inspect the air bag system as soon as possible. • Air bags can only be used once – have an authorized Kia dealer replace the air bag immediately after deployment.
Safety features of your vehicle (Continued) • For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occupants including the driver should always wear their seat belts whether or not an air bag is also provided at their seating position to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close to the air bag while the vehicle is in motion. • Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious or fatal injury in a crash.
Safety features of your vehicle The purpose of the air bag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that offered by the seat belt alone. • The side impact air bags are designed to deploy during certain side-impact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. • The side impact air bags do not only deploy on the side of the impact but also on the opposite side.
Safety features of your vehicle (Continued) • Do not use any accessory seat covers. • Use of seat covers could reduce or prevent the effectiveness of the system. • Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side impact air bag. • Do not place any objects over the air bag or between the air bag and yourself. • Do not place any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.) between the front door and the front seat.
Safety features of your vehicle C040700AUN Curtain air bag They are designed to help protect occupants in certain side impacts and to help prevent them from ejecting out of the vehicle as a result of a rollover, especially when the seatbelts are also in use. • The curtain air bags are designed to deploy during certain side impact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. • The curtain air bags do not only deploy on the side of the impact but also on the opposite side.
Safety features of your vehicle C040800AAM Why didn’t my air bag go off in a collision? (Inflation and non-inflation conditions of the air bag) There are many types of accidents in which the air bag would not be expected to provide additional protection. These include rear impacts, second or third collisions in multiple impact accidents, as well as low speed impacts.
Safety features of your vehicle WARNING • Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where air bags or sensors are installed. This may cause unexpected air bag deployment, which could result in serious personal injury or death. • If the installation location or angle of the sensors is altered in any way, the air bags may deploy when they should not or they may not deploy when they should, causing severe injury or death.
Safety features of your vehicle OVQ036018N OLM032312N * The actual air bags in the vehicle may differ from the illustration. 3 70 Side impact and/or curtain air bags Side impact and/or curtain air bags are designed to inflate when an impact is detected by side collision sensors depending on the strength, speed or angles of impact resulting from a side impact collision. Also, the side impact and curtain air bags are designed to inflate when a rollover is detected by a rollover sensor.
Safety features of your vehicle 1VQA2086 C040802AUN Air bag non-inflation conditions • In certain low-speed collisions the air bags may not deploy. The air bags are designed not to deploy in such cases because they may not provide benefits beyond the protection of the seat belts in such collisions. OUN036087 OVQ036018N • Air bags are not designed to inflate in rear collisions, because occupants are moved backward by the force of the impact.
Safety features of your vehicle 1VQA2089 1VQA2090 1VQA2091 • In an angled collision, the force of impact may direct the occupants in a direction where the air bags would not be able to provide any additional benefit, and thus the sensors may not deploy any air bags. • Just before impact, drivers often brake heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the front portion of the vehicle causing it to “ride” under a vehicle with a higher ground clearance.
Safety features of your vehicle C041100AUN SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenancefree and so there are no parts you can safely service by yourself. If the SRS air bag warning light does not illuminate, when you furn the ignition on, or continuously remains on, or continuously blinks, have your vehicle immediately inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
Safety features of your vehicle (Continued) • If the air bags inflate, they must be replaced by an authorized Kia dealer. • Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS wiring, or other components of the SRS system. Doing so could result in injury, due to accidental inflation of the air bags or by rendering the SRS inoperative. • If components of the air bag system must be discarded, or if the vehicle must be scrapped, certain safety precautions must be observed.
Safety features of your vehicle • Do not place items under the front seats. Placing items under the front seats could interfere with the operation of the supplemental restraint system sensing components and wiring harnesses. • Never hold an infant or child on your lap. The infant or child could be seriously injured or killed in the event of a crash. All infants and children should be properly restrained in appropriate child safety seats or seat belts in the rear seat.

When you apply your brakes under conditions which may lock the wheels, you may hear a “tik-tik’’ sound from the brakes, or feel a corresponding sensation in the brake pedal. This is normal and it means your ABS is active.
Driving your vehicle CAUTION • When you drive on a road having poor traction, such as an icy road, and have operated your brakes continuously, the ABS will be active continuously and the ABS warning light may illuminate. Pull your car over to a safe place and stop the engine. • Restart the engine. If the ABS warning light goes off, then your ABS system is normal. Otherwise, you may have a problem with the ABS. Contact an authorized Kia dealer as soon as possible.
Driving your vehicle WARNING Never drive too fast according to the road conditions or too quickly when cornering. Electronic stability control (ESC) will not prevent accidents. Excessive speed in turns, abrupt maneuvers and hydroplaning on wet surfaces can still result in serious accidents. Only a safe and attentive driver can prevent accidents by avoiding maneuvers that cause the vehicle to lose traction.
Driving your vehicle When operating When the ESC is in operation, ESC indicator light blinks. • When the Electronic Stability Control is operating properly, you can feel a slight pulsation in the vehicle. This is only the effect of brake control and indicates nothing unusual. • When moving out of the mud or slippery road, pressing the accelerator pedal may not cause the engine rpm (revolutions per minute) to increase.
Driving your vehicle E070504AAM-EU CAUTION Driving with varying tire or wheel sizes may cause the ESC system to malfunction.
