•Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehi
cle causing it to “ride” under a vehi
cle with a higher ground clearance.
Air bags may not inflate in this
"underride" situation because
deceleration forces that are detect
ed by sensors may be significantly
reduced by such “underride” colli
sions. • Air bags do not inflate in rollover
accidents because vehicle can not
detect rollover accident. • Air bags may not inflate if the vehi
cle collides with objects such as
utility poles or trees, where the
point of impact is concentrated and
the collision energy is absorbed by
the vehicle structure.

SRS Care
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 remains
on, we recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
We recommend that the any work on
the SRS system, such as removing,
installing, repairing, or any work on
the steering wheel, the front passen
ger's panel, front seats and roof rails
be performed by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Improper handling
of the SRS system may result in seri
ous personal injury.
(Continued)
•If the air bags inflate, we recom
mend that the system be replaced
by an authorized HYUNDAI deal
er.
•Do not tamper with or discon
nect SRS wiring, or other com
ponents of the SRS system.Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental inflation of the
air bags or by rendering the
SRS inoperative.
•If components of the air bag sys
tem must be discarded, or if the
vehicle must be scrapped, certainsafety precautions must be
observed. An authorized
HYUNDAI dealer knows these
precautions and can give you
the necessary information.Failure to follow these precau
tions and procedures could
increase the risk of personal
injury.
•If your car was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or water on
the flooring, you shouldn't try tostart the engine; we recommend
that you contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
•Modification to SRS compo
nents or wiring, including the
addition of any kind of badges to
the pad covers or modifications
to the body structure, can
adversely affect SRS perform
ance and lead to possible injury.
•For cleaning the air bag pad
covers, use only a soft, dry cloth
or one which has been mois
tened with plain water. Solvents
or cleaners could adversely
affect the air bag covers and
proper deployment of the sys
tem.
•No objects should be placed
over or near the air bag modules
on the steering wheel, instru
ment panel, and the front pas
senger's panel above the glove
box, because any such object
could cause harm if the vehicle
is in a crash severe enough to
cause the air bags to inflate.

Additional safety precautions
•
Never let passengers ride in the
cargo area or on top of a folded
down back seat. All o ccupants
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 vehi
cle 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 repo
sition 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 them
selves 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 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. •
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 compo
nents and wiring harnesses.
•
Never hold an infant or child on your
lap. The infant or child could be seri
ously 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.
•Sitting improperly or out of posi
tion can cause occupants to be
shifted too close to a deploying
air bag, strike the interior struc
ture or be thrown from the vehi
cle resulting in serious injury or
death.
•Always sit upright with the seat
back in an upright position, cen
tered on the seat cushion with
your seat belt on, legs comfort
ably extended and your feet on
the floor.
