2008 Kia Magentis Owners Manual

Knowing your vehicle
Additionally, your  SRS  is equipped  with
an occupant  classification system in  the
front  passenger’s   seat.  The   occupant
classification  system  detects  the  pres-
ence of a passenger in the front passen-
ger’s seat and  will turn off  the front pas-
senger’s air bag under certain conditions
in order  to protect smaller  front passen-
ger seat occupants. For more detail,  see
“Occupant Classification System” later in
this section.
WARNING - Seat  usage
Modification to the seat  structure
can   damage  the   seat   position
sensor and  cause  the air  bag to
deploy  at  a  different   level  than
should be provided.
Do  not place  any objects  under-
neath  the front  seats  since  they
could  damage  the  seat  position
sensor or interfere with the  occu-
pant classification system.
Do not place any objects that may
cause  magnetic  fields   near  the
front  seat.  These   may  cause  a
malfunction  of the  seat  position
sensor.

WARNING - Seating  sen-
sors malfunction
If  the  seat  position  sensor  is  not
working properly, the  air bag warn-
ing  light  (  BAGAIR )   on  the  instrument
panel will illuminate because the air
bag warning light is connected with
the  seat position  sensor. If  the  air
bag  warning light  does  not  illumi-
nate when the ignition key is turned
to  the "ON"  position,  if it  remains
illuminated   after   illuminating   for
approximately  6  seconds,   or  if  it
illuminates   while   the   vehicle   is
being  driven,  have   an  authorized
Kia  dealer inspect  your  vehicle as
soon as possible.
•  Have  your car  checked  by a  Kia
dealer as  soon as possible  if the
SRS   warning   light   comes   on.
Ignoring  the  indicator  light   can
result in serious or fatal injury.

tion can provide incorrect data  to

tem and  result in serious  or fatal
injury  in  a  crash. All  occupants
should  sit upright  in  their  seats
with their feet on the floor.
