Knowing your vehicle
563
(Continued)
• If your vehicle has been sub-
jected to flood conditions (e.g.
soaked carpeting/standing
water on the floor of the vehi-
cle, etc.) or if your vehicle has
become flood damaged in any
way, do not attempt to start
the vehicle or put the key in
the ignition before discon-
necting the battery. This may
cause air bag deployment,
which could result in serious
personal injury or death. If
flooded conditions are sub-
jected to your vehicle, before
starting the vehicle, have the
vehicle towed to an autho-
rised Kia dealer for inspection
and necessary repairs.

• Driver’s and front passenger’s
air bag are designed to inflate
only in certain frontal colli-
sions, and side and curtain air
bags are designed to inflate in
certain side impacts. They will
generally not provide protec-
tion in rear impacts, rollovers,
less severe frontal collisions.
They will not provide protec-
tion from later impacts in a
multi-impact collision.

WARNING
- Air bags &
seat belts
• Even in vehicles with air bags,
you and your passengers
must always wear the seat
belts provided in order to min-
imize the risk and severity of
injury in the event of a colli-
sion or rollover.
• Always wear your seat belt. It
can help keep you away from
the air bags during heavy
braking just before a collision.
• If occupants are not fastened
or correctly seated, they can-
not be protected, and thus
face serious injury or death.
