Air bag (Supplemental Restraint
System) service
Your Supplemental Restraint System is
virtually maintenance-free. There are no
parts which you can service.
You must have the system serviced
under the following circumstances:
• If an air bag ever inflates, the air bag
must be replaced.Do not try to remove
or discard the air bag by yourself.This
must be done by an authorized Kia
dealer.
• If the air bag warning indicator light
alerts you to a problem, have the air
bag system checked as soon as possi-
ble. Otherwise, your air bag system
may be ineffective.
When repairing or scrapping the
vehicles
• Repairing steering wheel, instrument
panel, center console or roofs, or
installing car audio around center con-
sole or painting front metal sheet could
disable the air bag system. Have them
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
• When leaving the vehicle at an author-
ized Kia dealer, inform the facility that
the vehicle is equipped with an air bag
system, and leave the owner’s manual
in the vehicle.
• Since the air bag system contains
explosive chemical substances, con-
tact an authorized Kia dealer when
scrapping the vehicle.
WARNING - No mainte-
nance or repair
• Do not modify your steering
wheel, seat or any other part of
the Supplemental Restraint
System. Modification could make
the system inoperable.
• Do not work on the system’s com-
ponents or wiring. This could
cause the air bags to inflate inad-
vertently, possibly seriously injur-
ing someone.Working on the sys-
tem could also disable the sys-
tem so that the air bags would not
deploy in a collision.
• Any work on the SRS system,
such as removing, installing,
repairing, or any work on the
steering wheel must be per-
formed by a qualified Kia techni-
cian. Improper handling of the air
bag system may result in serious
personal injury or death.
CAUTION - No modifica-
tion
Do not modify any part of the air
bag system. Modification could
make the air bag system ineffective
