Safety features of your vehicle
563
(Continued)
• Never install a rearward facing
child seat on the front passen-
ger's seat unless the passenger's
front air bag has been deactivat-
ed. The infant or child could be
severely injured or killed by an air
bag deployment in case of an
accident.
• Even though your vehicle is
equipped with the passenger's
front air bag ON/OFF switch, do
not install a child restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger's seat.
A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front seat.
Children who are too large for
child restraint systems should
always occupy the rear seat and
use the available lap/shoulder
belts. Children are afforded the
most safety in the event of an
accident when they are
restrained by a proper restraint
system in the rear seat.
• As soon as the child seat is no
longer needed on the front pas-
senger's seat, reactivate the front
passenger's air bag.

WARNING
• The driver is responsible for the
proper position of the passen-
ger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch.
• Deactivate the passenger's front
air bag only when the ignition
switch is switched off, or the mal-
function may occur in the SRS
Control Module.
And there may be a danger that
the driver's and/or front passen-
ger’s and/or side and curtain air
bag may fail to trigger, or not trig-
ger correctly during a collision.

(Continued)
• Never place or insert any object
into any small opening near side
airbag labels attached to the
vehicle seats. When the air bag
deploys, the object may affect the
deployment and result in unex-
pected accident or bodily harm.
(Continued)
If this occurs, we recommend that
the system be inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer.
• If the SRS air bag warning light
blinks or does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned
to the ON position, or if it illumi-
nates while the vehicle is being
driven, we recommend that the
system be inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING - No attaching
objects
No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular phone holder, cup
holder, perfume or stickers) should
be placed over or near the air bag
modules on the steering wheel,
instrument panel, windshield glass,
and the front passenger's panel
above the glove box. Such objects
could cause harm if the vehicle is in
a crash severe enough to cause the
air bags to deploy. Do not place any
objects over the air bag or between
the air bag and yourself.
