2008 Kia Sedona Owners Manual

Features of your vehicle
The  "PASSENGER   AIR  BAG   OFF"
indicator  illuminates  after  the  ignition
key  is  turned  to  the  "ON"  position  or
after the engine is started.   If the front
passenger  seat  is   unoccupied  or  is
occupied  by  very  small  person,  or  is
occupied by someone who is improp-
erly  seated,   the  "PASSENGER   AIR
BAG OFF" indicator will remain illumi-
nated.  If  the  front  passenger  seat  is
occupied by someone of adult size and
body  shape,  the  "PASSENGER   AIR
BAG OFF" indicator will turn    off after
approximately 4 seconds.
If the front passenger's seat is unoccu-
pied,   the   “PASSENGER  AIR   BAG
OFF”  indicator  will  turn  on,  and  the
front   passenger's   air   bag   will   not
deploy in frontal crashes.
If  the  “PASSENGER  AIR  BAG  OFF”
indicator illuminates, the front passen-
ger’s air bag will not deploy in frontal
crashes.

The system  detects a person  who is  generally adult size  as an adult,  thus allowing  the pas-
senger air  bag to  deploy. When a  smaller adult  sits in the  front passenger  seat, the  system
may detect their  body shape as that  of a child, thus preventing  air bag deployment.
*
When a larger child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits in the front passenger seat,
the system  may recognize  him/her as an  adult depending  on his/her  body shape  or seating
position, thus permitting  air bag deployment.
CAUTION  
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator illuminates or blinks continuous-
ly when a person of adult size sits in the front passenger's seat,   it could be
because that person isn't sitting properly in the seat. If this happens, turn the
vehicle off, make sure the seat back is not reclined, have the passenger cen-
ter on the seat cushion,   with legs comfortably extended,  and the safety belt
properly positioned.  Restart the vehicle and have the person remain in this
position long enough to allow the system to detect the person and activate the
passenger air bag.
If  the  front  passenger’s  seat  is  occu-
pied  by  a  person  of   adult  size,  the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF”   indica-
tor is not illuminated and the front pas-
senger’s  air  bag  will  deploy  in  frontal
crashes.
