Kia Cadenza: Air bag - advanced supplemental restraint
system / Curtain air bag
Curtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect
occupants in certain side impacts
and to help prevent them from ejecting
out of the vehicle as a result of a
rollover, especially when the seatbelts
are also in use.
- The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity, angle, speed and point of
impact. However, when side deployment
threshold is satisfied at frontimpact,
side air bags may deploy.
- The curtain air bags may deploy on
the side of the impact or on both
sides.
- Also, the curtain air bags on both
sides of the vehicle will deploy in
certain rollover situations.
- The curtain air bags are not
designed to deploy in all side
impact or rollover situations.
Do not allow the passengers to lean
their heads or bodies against the
doors, put their arms on the doors,
stretch their arms out of the window
or place objects between the doors
and passengers when they are seated
on seats equipped with side
impact and/or curtain air bags.
✽ NOTICE
Never try to open or repair any components
of the side and curtain air
bag system. This should only be
done by an authorized Kia dealer.
