Knowing your vehicle
When repairing or scrapping the
vehicle
• Repairing the steering wheel,
instrument panel, center console
or roofs, or installing a car audio
system around the center console
or painting the front metal sheet
could disable the airbag system.
Have such repairs and mainte-
nance performed by an authorized
Kia dealer.
• Special care must be taken in
scrapping or junking an airbag-
equipped vehicle. Always refer
such activities to a qualified profes-
sional.
Airbag warning label
Airbag warning labels which are now
required by the Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS)
are attached to alert driver and pas-
sengers of potential risk of airbag

Note that these government warn-
ings focus on the risk to children, Kia
also wants you to be aware of the
risks which adults are exposed to.

ous pages.
