The air bag modules are located
both in the centre of the steering
wheel and in the front passenger's
panel above the glove box. When the
SRSCM detects a sufficiently severe
impact to the front of the vehicle, it
will automatically deploy the front air
bags. Upon deployment, tear seams mold-
ed directly into the pad covers will
separate under pressure from the
expansion of the air bags. Further
opening of the covers then allows full
inflation of the air bags.
WARNING
If any of the following conditions
occurs, this indicates a malfunc-
tion of the SRS. In this case,
have the system inspected by a
professional workshop. Kia rec-
ommends to visit an authorised
Kia dealer/service partner.
