Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate
in a frontal collision depending on
the intensity, speed or angles of
impact of the front collision.
1VQA2084
WARNING
Do not hit or allow any objects
to impact the locations where
air bags or sensors are
installed.
This may cause unexpected
air bag deployment, which
could result in serious per-
sonal injury or death.
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 per-
form maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors.
Have the vehicle checked and
repaired by an authorized Kia
dealer.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Problems may arise if the sen-
sor installation angles are
changed due to the deforma-
tion of the front bumper, front
end module, body or front
doors and/or C pillar where
side collision sensors are
installed. Have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized Kia dealer.
Installing bumper guards (or
side step or running board) or
replacing a bumper (or front
door module) with non-gen-
uine parts may adversely
affect your vehicle’s collision
and air bag deployment per-
formance.
