SRS Care

The SRS requires virtually no maintenance, and there are no parts that you can safely service yourself. If the SRS warning light does not illuminate, or stays illuminated, have your vehicle inspected immediately by an authorized Kia dealer.

Any work on the SRS, such as removal, installation, repair, or any work on the steering wheel, front passenger panel, front seats and roof rails, must be performed by an authorized Kia dealer. Improper handling of the SRS may result in serious injury.

To clean the airbag trim covers, use only a soft dry cloth or a cloth dampened with plain water. Solvents or cleaning agents may adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deployment of the system.

If SRS components must be disposed of, or if the vehicle must be scrapped, certain safety precautions must be observed. An authorized Kia dealer is familiar with these precautions and can provide you with the necessary information. Failure to observe these precautions and procedures may increase the risk of personal injury.

WARNING - Tampering with the SRS

Do not tamper with or disconnect the SRS wiring or other SRS components.

This may cause accidental airbag deployment or render the SRS inoperative.

WARNING - Towing the vehicle

Always keep the engine Start/Stop button in the OFF position when your vehicle is being towed. Side airbags may deploy if the vehicle is tilted, for example when towing, due to the rollover sensors in the vehicle.
