Airbag warning light

The purpose of airbag warning light
in your instrument panel is to alert
you of a potential problem with your
airbag - Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS).

When the ignition switch is turned
ON, the indicator light should blink or
illuminate for approximately 6 sec-
onds, then go off.
Have the system checked if:
• The light does not turn on briefly

when you turn the ignition ON.

• The light stays on after the engine

starts.

• The light comes on while the vehi-

cle is in motion.

Airbag (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 airbag ever inflates, the airbag

must be replaced. Do not try to
remove or discard the airbag by
yourself. This must be done by an
authorized Kia dealer or service
representative

• If the airbag warning indicator light

alerts you to a problem, have the
airbag system checked as soon as
possible. Otherwise, your airbag
system may be ineffective.

The entire SRS system must be
inspected by an authorized Kia deal-
er in 10 years after the vehicle man-
ufacture date.
