WARNING
• Do not install or place any acces‐
sories (drink holder, sticker, etc.)
on the front passenger's panel
above the glove box in a vehicle
with a passenger's air bag. Such
objects may become dangerous
projectiles and cause injury if the
passenger's air bag inflates.

• When installing a container of liq‐
uid air freshener inside the vehicle,
do not place it near the instrument
cluster nor on the instrument pan‐
el surface.
It may become a dangerous pro‐
jectile and cause injury if the pas‐
senger's air bag inflates.
WARNING
• If an air bag deploys, there may be
a loud noise followed by a fine
dust released in the vehicle. These
conditions are normal and are not
hazardous - the air bags are
packed in this fine powder. The
dust generated during air bag de‐
ployment may cause skin or eye
irritation as well as aggravate
asthma for some persons. Always
wash all exposed skin areas thor‐
oughly with cold water and a mild
soap after an accident in which the
air bags were deployed.

• The SRS can function only when
the ignition switch is in the ON po‐
sition. If the SRS " " warning light
does not illuminate, or continuous‐
ly remains on after illuminating for
about 6 seconds when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON posi‐
tion, or after the engine is started,
comes on while driving, the SRS is
not working properly. In this case,
have the system inspected by a
professional workshop. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
• Before you replace a fuse or dis‐
connect a battery terminal, turn
the ignition switch to the LOCK po‐
sition and remove the ignition key.
Never remove or replace the air
bag related fuse (s) when the igni‐
tion switch is in the ON position.
Failure to heed this warning will
cause the SRS “ ” warning light
to illuminate.
