The passenger’s front air bag OFF indicator also comes on when the passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch is set to the OFF position and goes off when the passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch is set to the ON position.

If this occurs, we recommend that the passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch and the SRS air bag system be inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
