• If the installation location or angle
of the sensors is altered in any
way, the air bags may deploy
when they should not or they may
not deploy when they should,
causing severe injury or death.
Therefore, do not try to perform
maintenance on or around the air
bag sensors. Have the system
serviced by a professional work‐
shop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service part‐
ner.
• Problems may arise if the sensor
installation angles are changed due
to the deformation of the front
bumper, body or B pillar and C pil‐
lars where side collision sensors
are installed. In this case, have the
system serviced by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit
an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
