• To prevent unexpected deploy‐
ment of the side air bag that may
result in personal injury, avoid im‐
pact to the side impact sensor
when the ignition switch is on.
• If the seat or seat cover is dam‐
aged, we recommend that the
system be serviced by an author‐
ized Kia dealer.
Curtain air bag (if equipped)
❈ The actual air bags may differ from
the illustration.
Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front
and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear outboard seat occupants in
certain side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact colli‐
sions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and point of impact. How‐
ever, when side deployment threshold
is satisfied at front impact, side air
bags may deploy.
The curtain air bags may deploy on the
side of the impact or on both side.
The curtain air bags are not designed
to deploy in all side impacts or rollover
situations.
NOTICE
n
if equipped with rollover sen‐
sor
• Also, both sides of the curtain air
bags deploy in certain rollover sit‐
uations.
