ON/OFF switch is not working
properly, the air bag warning light
( )on the instrument panel will il‐
luminate.
And, the passenger's front air bag
OFF indicator ( ) will not illumi‐
nate (The passenger's front air
bag ON indicator comes on and
goes off after approximately 60
seconds), the SRS Control Module
reactivates the passenger’s front
air bag and the passenger’s front
air bag will inflate in frontal impact
crashes even if the passenger’s
front air bag ON/OFF switch is set
to the OFF position.
In this case, have the system in‐
spected by a professional work‐
shop. Kia recommends to visit an

If the SRS air bag warning light
blinks
or does not illuminate when
the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position, or if it illuminates
while the vehicle is being driven,
have the system inspected by a
professional workshop. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
WARNING
The driver is responsible for the
proper
position of the passenger’s
front air bag ON/OFF switch.
Deactivate the passenger's front
air
bag only when the ignition
switch is switched off, or the mal‐
function may occur in the SRS
Control Module.
And there may be a danger that
the driver's and/or front passeng‐
er’s and/or side and curtain air bag
may fail to trigger, or not trigger
correctly during a collision.

Never install a rearward facing
child
seat on the front passenger's
seat unless the passenger's front
air bag has been deactivated. The
infant or child could be severely in‐
jured or killed by an air bag deploy‐
ment in case of an accident.
Children who are too large for child
r
estraint systems should always
occupy the rear seat and use the
available lap/shoulder belts. Chil‐
dren are afforded the most safety
in the event of an accident when
they are restrained by a proper re‐
straint system in the rear seat.
As soon as the child seat is no lon‐
ger needed on the front passeng‐
er's seat, reactivate the front pas‐
senger's air bag.
