System
plain water. Solvents or cleaners
could adversely affect the air bag
covers and proper deployment of
the system.
If components of the air bag system
must be discarded, or if the vehicle
must be scrapped, certain safety
precautions must be observed. An
authorized Kia dealer knows these
precautions and can give you the
necessary information. Failure to
follow these precautions and proce
-
dures could increase the risk of
bodily injury.
Tampering with SRS
Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring or other components of
the SRS system. Doing so could
result in the accidental inflation of
the air bag or render the SRS inop
-
erative.
Towing vehicle
Always have the ignition off when
your vehicle is being towed. The side
air bags may inflate if the vehicle is
tilted such as when being towed
because of the rollover sensors in
the vehicle.
Additional safety precautions
䳜 Never let passengers ride in the
cargo area or on top of a folded-
down back seat. All occupants
should sit upright, fully back in
their seats with their seat belts
on and their feet on the floor.
䳜 Passengers should not move out
of or change seats while the vehi
-
cle is moving. A passenger who is
not wearing a seat belt during a
crash or emergency stop can be
thrown against the inside of the
vehicle, against other occupants,
or out of the vehicle.
䳜 Each seat belt is designed to
restrain one occupant. If more
than one person uses the same
seat belt, they could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision.
䳜 Do not use any accessories on
seat belts. Devices claiming to
improve occupant comfort or
reposition the seat belt can
reduce the protection provided by
the seat belt and increase the
chance of serious injury in a crash.
䳜 Passengers should not place hard
or sharp objects between them
-
selves and the air bags. Carrying
hard or sharp objects on your lap
or in your mouth can result in
injuries if an air bag inflates.
