Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before
starting any trip. At all times, passengers
should sit upright and be properly
restrained. Infants and small children
must be restrained in appropriate Child
Restraint Systems. Children who have
outgrown a booster seat and adults must
be restrained using the seat belts.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
adjusting your seat belt:

[NEVER use one seat belt for more
than one occupant.

[Always position the seatback upright
with the lap portion of the seat belt
snug and low across the hips.

[NEVER allow children or small infants
to ride on a passenger’s lap.

[Do not route the seat belt across your
neck, across sharp edges, or reroute
the shoulder strap away from your
body.

[Do not allow the seat belt to become
caught or jammed.
Front Seats
The front seat can be adjusted by using
the control switches located on the
outside of the seat cushion. Before
driving, adjust the seat to the proper
position so that you can easily control
the steering wheel, foot pedals and
controls on the instrument panel.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
adjusting your seat:

[NEVER attempt to adjust the seat
while the vehicle is moving. The seat
could respond with unexpected
movement and may cause loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.

[Do not place anything under the
front seats. Loose objects in the
driver’s foot area could interfere
with the operation of the foot pedals,
causing an accident.

[Do not allow anything to interfere
with the normal position and proper
locking of the seatback.

[Do not place a cigarette lighter on
the floor or seat. When you operate
the seat, gas may exit out of the
lighter causing a fire.

[Use extreme caution when picking
up small objects trapped under the
seats or between the seat and the
center console. Your hands might be
cut or injured by the sharp edges of
the seat mechanism.

[If there are occupants in the rear
seats, be careful while adjusting the
front seat position.

[Make sure that the seat is locked in
place after the adjustment. If not,
the seat might move unexpectedly
resulting in an accident.

Seats and Safety System
The vehicles are equipped with a Supplemental Air Bag System for the driver’s seat and
front passenger’s seats.
The front air bags are designed to supplement the three-point seat belts. For these air
bags to provide protection, the seat belts must be worn at all times when driving.
You can be severely injured or killed in an accident if you are not wearing a seat belt.
Air bags are designed to supplement seat belts, but do not replace them. Also, air bags
are not designed to deploy in every collision. In some accidents, the seat belts are the
only restraint protecting you.
WARNING
AIR BAG SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS use seat belts and Child Restraint Systems - every trip, every time,
everyone! Even with air bags, you can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if
you are improperly belted or not wearing your seat belt when the air bag inflates.
NEVER place a child in any Child Restraint System or booster seat in the front
passenger seat, unless the air bag is deactivated.
An inflating air bag could forcefully strike the infant or child causing serious or fatal
injuries.
ABC - Always Buckle Children under age 13 in the back seat. It is the safest place
for children of any age to ride. If a child age 13 or older must be seated in the front
seat, he or she must be properly belted and the seat should be moved as far back as
possible.
All occupants should sit upright with the seatback in an upright position, centered
on the seat cushion with their seat belt on, legs comfortably extended and their feet
on the floor until the vehicle is parked and the vehicle is turned off. If an occupant
is out of position during an accident, the rapidly deploying air bag may forcefully
contact the occupant causing serious or fatal injuries.
You and your passengers should never sit or lean unnecessarily close to the air bags
or lean against the door or center console.
Move your seat as far back as possible from front air bags, while still maintaining
control of the vehicle. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) recommends that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the
center of the steering wheel and the chest.

Seats and Safety System
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from inflating front air bags, take
the following precautions:

[Seat belts must be worn at all times
to help keep occupants positioned
properly.

[Move your seat as far back as
possible from front air bags, while
still maintaining control of the
vehicle.

[Never lean against the door or center
console.

[Do not allow the front passenger
to place their feet or legs on the
dashboard.

[No objects (such as crash pad
cover, mobile phone holder, cup
holder, perfume or stickers) should
be placed over or near the air bag
modules on the steering wheel,
instrument panel, windshield glass,
and the front passenger’s panel
above the glove box. Such objects
could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause the air
bags to deploy.

[Do not attach any objects on the
front windshield and inside mirror.

Your vehicle is equipped with a side air
bag in each front and outboard second
row seat. Additionally, a front center
side air bag is provided in the inboard
side of the driver seatback. The purpose
of the air bag is to provide the vehicle’s
additional protection than that offered by
the seat belt alone.

How does the Air Bag System
Operate?
ORG3EV031084
The SRS consists of the following
components:
(1) Driver’s front air bag module
(2) Passenger’s front air bag module
(3) Front center side air bag module
(4) Side air bag modules
(5) Curtain air bag modules
(6) Front retractor pre-tensioner
(7) Air bag warning light
(8) SRS control module (SRSCM) /
Rollover sensor
(9) Front impact sensors
(10) Side impact sensors
(11) Side pressure sensors
(12) Driver’s knee air bag module
(13) Occupant classification system
(14) Driver’s and front passenger’s seat
belt buckle sensors
ÃFront passenger’s air bag OFF lamp is
located on the overhead console.The SRSCM (Supplemental Restraint
System Control Module) continually
monitors all SRS components while the
Start/Stop button is ON to determine if a
crash impact is severe enough to require
air bag deployment or pre-tensioner seat
belt deployment.
SRS warning light
The SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
air bag warning light on the instrument
panel displays the air bag symbol
depicted in the illustration. The system
checks the air bag electrical system for
malfunctions. The light indicates that
there is a potential problem with your
air bag system, which could include
your side and/or curtain air bags used
for rollover protection (if equipped with
rollover sensor).
WARNING
If your SRS malfunctions, the air bag
may not inflate properly during an
accident increasing the risk of serious
injury or death.
If any of the following conditions occur,
your SRS is malfunctioning:

[The light does not turn on for
approximately three to six seconds
when the Start/Stop button is in the
ON position.

[The light stays on after illuminating
for approximately three to six
seconds.

[The light comes on while the vehicle
is in motion.

[The light blinks when the vehicle is
running.
Have an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products inspect the SRS
as soon as possible if any of these
conditions occur.

Seats and Safety System
Main components of the Occupant
Classification System

[A detection device located within the
front passenger seat cushion.

[Electronic system to help determine
whether the passenger air bag
systems should be activated or
deactivated.

[An indicator light located on the
instrument panel which illuminates
the words “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF”
indicating the front passenger air bag
system is deactivated.

[The instrument panel air bag indicator
light is interconnected with the OCS.
The OCS is designed to help detect
the presence of a properly-seated
front passenger and determine if the
passenger’s front air bag should be
enabled (may inflate) or not.
The purpose is to help reduce the risk
of injury or death from an inflating air
bag to certain front passenger seat
occupants, such as children, by requiring
the air bag to be automatically turned
OFF.
For example, if a child restraint of the
type specified in the regulations is on the
seat, the occupant classification sensor
can detect it and cause the air bag to
turn OFF.
Front passenger seat adult occupants
who are properly seated and wearing the
seat belt properly, should not cause the
passenger air bag to be automatically
turned OFF. For smaller adults it may turn
OFF, however, if the occupant does not
sit in the seat properly (for example, by
not sitting upright, by sitting on the edge
of the seat, or by otherwise being out of
position), this could cause the sensor to
turn the air bag OFF.You will find the “PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF” indicator on the overhead console
panel. This system detects the conditions
1-4 in the following table and activates or
deactivates the front passenger air bag
based on these conditions.
Always be sure that you and all vehicle
occupants are seated properly and
wearing the seat belt properly for the
most effective protection by the air bag
and the seat belt.
The OCS may not function properly if the
passenger takes actions which can affect
the classification system. These include:

[Failing to sit in an upright position.

[Leaning against the door or center
console.

[Sitting towards the sides of the front
of the seat.

[Putting their legs on the dashboard or
resting them on other locations which
reduce the passenger weight on the
front seat.

[Wearing the seat belt improperly.

[Reclining the seatback.

[Wearing thick clothes like ski wear or
hip protection wear.

[Putting an additional thick cushion on
the seat.

[Putting electrical devices (for
example, notebook, satellite radio) on
the seat with inverter charging.

ORG3EV031050

[NEVER lean on the door or center console or sit on
one side of the front passenger seat.
OJWEV031031

[Do not sit on the passenger seat wearing heavily
padded clothes such as ski wear and hip protector.
OJWEV031034

[Do not use car seat accessories such as thick blankets
and cushions which cover up the car seat surface.
OJWEV031032

[Do not place electronic devices such as laptops, DVD
player, or conductive materials such as water bottles
on the passenger seat.

[Do not use electronic devices such as laptops and
satellite radios which use inverter chargers.
OJWEV031033

[If a large quantity of liquid has been spilled on
the passenger seat, the air bag warning light may
illuminate or malfunction.
Therefore, make sure the seat has been completely
dried before driving the vehicle.

[Do not place sharp objects on the front passenger seat. These may damage the
occupant detection system, if they puncture the seat cushion.

[Do not place any items under the front passenger seat.

[When changing or replacing the seat or seat cover, use original retailer of Genesis
Branded products. The OCS has been developed using original Genesis parts car
seats. Altering or changing the authentic parts may result in system malfunction
and increase risk of injury when in a collision. Any of the above could interfere
with the proper operation of the OCS sensor thereby increasing the risk of an
injury in an accident.
