CAUTION
If the passenger’s front air bag
ON/OFF switch malfunctions, the
passenger’s front air bag OFF indica‐
tor will not illuminate (The passeng‐
er's front air bag ON indicator comes
on and goes off after approximately
60 seconds) and the passenger’s
front air bag will inflate in a frontal
impact even if the passenger’s front
air bag ON/OFF switch is set to the
OFF position.
In this case, have the passenger's
front air bag ON/OFF switch and the
SRS air bag system inspected by a
professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an author‐
ized Kia dealer/service partner.
SRS components and functions
The SRS consists of the following com‐
ponents:
1. Driver's front air bag module
2. Passenger's front air bag module
3. Side air bag modules
4. Curtain air bag modules
5. Retractor pre-tensioner assem‐
blies

8. Side impact sensors
*
*
if equipped
9. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF
switch
*
10. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF
indicator

The SRSCM continually monitors all SRS
components while the ignition switch is
ON to determine if a crash impact is se‐
vere enough to require air bag deploy‐
ment or pre-tensioner seat belt de‐
ployment.
The SRS air bag warning light " " on
the instrument panel will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position, af‐
ter which the SRS air bag warning light
" " should go out.
WARNING
If any of the following conditions oc‐
curs, this indicates a malfunction of
the SRS. In this case, have the sys‐
tem inspected by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit
an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
