Knowing your vehicle

Air bag warning light

The purpose of air bag warning light
in your instrument panel is to alert
you of a potential problem with your
air bag - 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.

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
possible. Otherwise, your air bag
system may be ineffective.
