Kia Cee'd: Air bag - supplemental restraint system / SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and so there are no parts you can safely
service by yourself. If the SRS air bag
warning light does not illuminate, or continuously
remains on, we recommend
that the system be inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING
- Modification to SRS components
or wiring, including the addition
of any kind of badges to the pad
covers or modifications to the
body structure, can adversely
affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
- For cleaning the air bag pad covers,
use only a soft, dry cloth or
one which has been moistened
with plain water. Solvents or
cleaners could adversely affect
the air bag covers and proper
deployment of the system.
- No objects should be placed over
or near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, and the front passenger's
panel above the glove box,
because any such object could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause
the air bags to inflate.
- If the air bags inflate, we recommend
that the system be replaced
by an authorized Kia dealer.
- Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring, or other components
of the SRS system. Doing so
could result in injury, due to accidental
inflation of the air bags or
by rendering the SRS inoperative.
- If components of the air bag system
must be discarded, or if the
vehicle must be scrapped, certain
safety precautions must be
observed. An authorized Kia
dealer knows these precautions
and can give you the necessary
information. Failure to follow
these precautions and procedures
could increase the risk of
personal injury.
- If your car was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or water on flooring,
you shouldn't try to start the
engine; we recommend that you
contact an authorized Kia dealer.
