Kia Cee'd: Air bag - supplemental restraint system / Additional safety precautions
- Never let passengers ride in the
cargo area or on top of a foldeddown
back seat. All occupants should
sit upright, fully back in their seats with
their seat belts on and their feet on the
floor.
- Passengers should not move out of
or change seats while the vehicle is
moving. A passenger who is not wearing
a seat belt during a crash or emergency
stop can be thrown against the
inside of the vehicle, against other
occupants, or out of the vehicle.
- Each seat belt is designed to
restrain one occupant. If more than
one person uses the same seat belt,
they could be seriously injured or killed
in a collision.
- Do not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiming to improve
occupant comfort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provided
by the seat belt and increase the
chance of serious injury in a crash.
- Passengers should not place hard
or sharp objects between themselves
and the air bags. Carrying
hard or sharp objects on your lap or in
your mouth can result in injuries if an
air bag inflates.
- Keep occupants away from the air
bag covers. All occupants should sit
upright, fully back in their seats with
their seat belts on and their feet on the
floor. If occupants are too close to the
air bag covers, they could be injured if
the air bags inflate.
- Do not attach or place objects on or
near the air bag covers. Any object
attached to or placed on the front or
side impact air bag covers could interfere
with the proper operation of the air
bags.
- Do not modify the front seats.
Modification of the front seats could
interfere with the operation of the supplemental
restraint system sensing
components or side air bags.
- Do not place items under the front
seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the operation
of the supplemental restraint system
sensing components and wiring harnesses.
- Never hold an infant or child on your
lap. The infant or child could be seriously
injured or killed in the event of a
crash. All infants and children should
be properly restrained in appropriate
child safety seats or seat belts in the
rear seat.
WARNING
- Sitting improperly or out of position
can cause occupants to be
shifted too close to a deploying
air bag, strike the interior structure
or be thrown from the vehicle
resulting in serious injury or
death.
- Always sit upright with the seatback
in an upright position, centered
on the seat cushion with
your seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and your feet on
the floor.
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

If you modify your vehicle by changing
your vehicle's frame, bumper system,

your vehicle's air bag system. ...
