䳜 You and your passengers should
never sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the air bags. Improperly

tor is illuminated, because the air
bag will not deploy in the event of
a moderate or severe frontal
crash.
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 deploy.
䳜 %o not tamper with or disconnect
S3S wiring or other components
of the S3S system. %oing so could
result in injury, due to accidental
deployment of the air bags or by
rendering the S3S inoperative.
䳜 If the S3S air bag warning light
remains illuminated whilst the
vehicle is being driven, have the
system inspected by a profes

Kia recommends to visit an

䳜 The S3S is designed to deploy the
front air bags only when an
impact is sufficiently severe and
when the impact angle is less
than 30󳚛 from the forward longi
-
tudinal axis of the vehicle. Addi
-
tionally, the air bags will only
deploy once. Seat belts must be
worn at all times.
䳜 'ront air bags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-
impact or rollover crashes. In
addition, front air bags will not
deploy in frontal crashes below
the deployment threshold.
䳜 A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front seat.
The infant or child could be
severely injured or killed by an air
bag deployment in case of an
accident.
䳜 Children age 13 and under must
always be properly restrained in
the rear seat. Never allow children
to ride in the front passenger
seat. If a child over 13 must be
seated in the front seat, he or she
must be properly belted and the
seat should be moved as far back
as possible.
