SRS Care

The SRS requires virtually no maintenance, so there are no parts that can be safely serviced by the owner. If the SRS airbag warning light does not come on or stays on, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer immediately.

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 pads, use only a soft, dry cloth or a cloth dampened with plain water. Solvents or cleaning agents may adversely affect the airbag covers and the correct operation of the system.

If SRS components must be disposed of, or if the vehicle is to be scrapped, certain 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 injury.

WARNING! SRS Interference

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. The side airbags may deploy if the vehicle is tilted, for example when being towed, due to the rollover sensors in the vehicle.
