Front
Rear
Your vehicle is equipped with a side air bag in each front and rear outboard seat.
The purpose of the air bag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or front and rear outboard passenger with additional protection than that offered by the seat belt alone.
The side air bags are designed to deploy only during certain sideimpact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. The side air bags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations.
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 operation.
WARNING
Unexpected deployment
Avoid impact to the side air bag sensor when the ignition switch is ON to prevent unexpected deployment of the side air bag.
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 fastened.
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.
WARNING
Deployment
Do not install any accessories including seat covers, on the side or near the side air bag as this may affect the deployment of the side air bags.
If seat or seat cover is damaged, have the vehicle checked and repaired by an authorized K900 Kia dealer. Inform that your vehicle is equipped with side air bags and an occupant detection system.
WARNING
Flying objects
Do not place any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.) between the front door and the front seat. Such objects may become dangerous projectiles if the side air bag inflates.
