Kia Sorento: Occupant Detection System (ODS)The front passenger seating position of the Kia Sorento features an advanced Occupant Detection System (ODS) designed to enhance restraint efficiency and help prevent unnecessary deployment risks.

The ODS detects whether the front passenger seat is occupied by an adult, a child restraint system, or an object, automatically deciding whether to enable or disengage the passenger-side front airbag module. Note that the ODS strictly manages the front passenger front airbag and does not alter side airbag or seat belt pretensioner operation.
