Safety features of your vehicle Air bag - supplemental restraint system
䳜 For cleaning the air bag pad cov
-
ers, use only a soft, dry cloth or
one which has been moistened
with plain water. Solvents or
cleaners could adversely affect
the air bag covers and proper
deployment of the system.
䳜 No objects should be placed over
or near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, and the front passenger's
panel above the glove box,
because any such object could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause the
air bags to inflate.
䳜 If the air bags inflate, have the
system replaced by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to
visit an authorised Kia dealer/ser
-
vice partner.
䳜 Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring, or other components
of the SRS system. Doing so could
result in injury, due to accidental
inflation of the air bags or by ren
-
dering the SRS inoperative.
䳜 If components of the air bag sys
-
tem must be discarded, or if the
vehicle must be scrapped, certain
safety precautions must be
observed. An authorised 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
personal injury.
䳜 If your car was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or water on
flooring, you shouldn't try to start
the engine; in this case, have your
vehicle inspected by a profes
-
sional workshop. Kia recom
-
mends to contact an authorised
Kia dealer/service partner.
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 whilst the
vehicle 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 occu
-
pants, 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.
