WARNING
The side air bag is supplemental to
the driver's and the passenger's
seat belt systems and is not a
substitute for them. Therefore
your seat belts must be worn at all
times while the vehicle is in mo‐
tion. The air bags deploy only in
certain side impact conditions se‐
vere enough to cause significant
injury to the vehicle occupants.
For best protection from the side
air bag system and to avoid being
injured by the deploying side air
bag, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright position
with the seat belt properly fas‐
tened. The driver's hands should
be placed on the steering wheel at
the 9:00 and 3:00 positions.
The passenger's arms and hands
should be placed on their laps.
Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
Use of seat covers could reduce or
prevent the effectiveness of the
system.

To prevent unexpected deploy‐
ment
of the side air bag that may
result in personal injury, avoid im‐
pact to the side impact sensor
when the ignition switch is on.
If the seat or seat cover is dam‐
aged,
have the system serviced by
a professional workshop. Kia rec‐
ommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
