Additionally, your vehicle is equipped
with an occupant detection system in the
front passenger's seat. The occupant
detection system detects the presence of
a passenger in the front passenger's seat
and will turn off the front passenger's air
bag under certain conditions. For more
detail, see "Occupant detection system"
in this section.

bag warning light
on the instru-
ment panel will illuminate because
the SRS air bag warning light is
connected with the occupant
detection system. If the SRS air bag
warning light does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned
to the ON position, remains illumi-
nated after approximately 6 sec-
onds when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, or if it
illuminates while the vehicle is
being driven, have an authorized
KIA dealer inspect the advanced
SRS air bag system as soon as
possible.
The advanced SRS offers the ability to
control the air bag inflation with two lev-
els. A first stage level is provided for mod-
erate-severity impacts. A second stage
level is provided for more severe impacts.
WARNING
The passenger’s front air bag is designed
to help reduce the injury of children sitting
close to the instrument panel in low speed
collisions. However, children are safer if
they are restrained in the rear seat.
• Modification to the seat structure
can cause the air bag to deploy at
a different level than should be
provided.
• Do not place any objects under-
neath the front seats as they
could damage interfere with the
occupant detection system.
According to the impact severity and seat
belt usage, the SRSCM (SRS Control
Module) controls the air bag inflation.
Failure to properly wear seat belts can
increase the risk or severity of injury in
an accident.
The seat belt buckle sensors determine if
the driver and front passenger's seat
belts are fastened.
