If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator illuminates or blinks con-
tinuously when a person of adult
size sits in the front passenger's
seat, it could be because that per-
son 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 center
on the seat cushion, with legs com-
fortably 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 occupant classification sys-
tem is not working properly, the air
bag warning light ( BAGAIR ) on the
If the front passenger seat should
be modified for persons with dis-
abilities that may affect the opera-
tion of the occupant classification
system, contact an authorized Kia
dealer.
instrument panel will illuminate. If
there is a malfunction of the occu-
pant classification system, the
"PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indi-
cator will illuminate and the front
passenger's air bag will not deploy
in frontal crashes even if there is an
adult sized occupant in the front
passenger seat. If the SRS air bag
warning light does not illuminate
when the ignition key is turned to
"ON" position, if it remains illumi-
nated after blinking for approxi-
mately six seconds, or if it illumi-
nates while the vehicle is being
driven, have an authorized Kia deal-
er inspect the occupant classifica-
tion system with the SRS air bag
system as soon as possible.
WARNING
• Even though your vehicle is
equipped with the occupant clas-
sification system, children aged
12 and under should be seated in
the rear seats. Do not install a
child restraint system in the front
passenger seat. The child could
be severely injured or killed if the
air bag deploys. Children are
afforded the most protection in
the event of an accident when
they are restrained by the proper
restraint system in the rear seat.
