Safety features of your vehicle Air bag - advanced supplemental restraint system
Kia parts designed for this vehicle and
model. Any other such replacement or
modification could adversely affect the
operation of the occupant detection sys
-
tem and your advanced air bags.
Modification
Modification to the seat structure can
cause the air bag to deploy at a different
level than should be provided.
Advanced air bags are combined with
pre-tensioner seat belts to help provide
enhanced occupant protection in frontal
crashes. Front air bags are not intended
to deploy in collisions in which sufficient
protection can be provided by the seat
belt.
Air bags can only be used once – have
an authorized Kia dealer replace the air
bag immediately after deployment.
Front air bags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-impact or
rollover crashes. However, when frontal
deployment threshold is satisfied at
side-impact, front air bags may deploy.
In addition, front air bags will not deploy
in frontal crashes below the deployment
threshold.
SRS Wiring
Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring or other components of the SRS
system. Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental deployment of the air
bags or by rendering the SRS inopera
-
tive.
No Attaching Objects
No objects (such as crash pad cover, cel
-
lular 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.
Side air bag
Your vehicle is equipped with a side air
bag in each front seat.
* The actual air bags in the vehicle may
differ from the illustration.
The purpose of the air bag is to provide
the vehicle's driver and/or the front pas
-
senger with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt alone.
僅 The side air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side-impact col
-
lisions, depending on the crash sever
-
ity of impact.
