Safety features of your vehicle
Additionally, your vehicle is equipped
with an occupant detection system in the
front passenger's seat. The occupant
detection system detects the presence of
a passenger in the front passenger's seat
and will turn off the front passenger's air
bag under certain conditions. For more
detail, see "Occupant detection system"
in this section.
WARNING
• Manufacturers are required by
government regulations to pro-
vide a contact point concerning
modifications to the vehicle for
persons with disabilities, which
modifications may affect the
vehicle’s advanced air bag sys-
tem. However, KIA does not
endorse nor will it support any
changes to any part or structure
of the vehicle that could affect
the advanced air bag system,
including the occupant detection
system.

Specifically, the front passenger
seat, dashboard or door should
not be replaced except by an
authorized KIA dealer using orig-
inal KIA parts designed for this
vehicle and model. Any other
such replacement or modification
could adversely affect the opera-
tion of the occupant detection
system and your advanced air
bags. For the same reason, do
not attach anything to the seat,
dashboard or door, even tem-
porarily. If the system is adverse-
ly affected, it could cause severe
personal injuries or death in a
collision.
