To reduce the chance of serious or
fatal injuries:
•Children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear seat.
A child riding in the front passen
ger seat can be forcefully struck
by an inflating air bag resulting in
serious or fatal injuries.
•Always follow the instructions for
installation and use of the child
restraint maker.
•Always make sure the child seat
is secured properly in the car and
your child is securely
restrained
in the child seat.
•Never hold a child in your arms or
lap when riding in a vehicle. The
violent forces created during a
crash will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against
the car’s interior.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
•Never put a seat belt over yourself
and a child. During a crash, the
belt could press deep into the
child causing serious internal
injuries.
•Never leave children unattended
in a vehicle – not even for a short
time. The car can heat up very
quickly, resulting in serious
injuries to children inside. Even
very young children may inadver
tently cause the vehicle to move,
entangle themselves in the win
dows, or lock themselves or oth
ers inside the vehicle.
•Never allow two children, or any
two persons, to use the same seat
belt.
•Children often squirm and reposi
tion themselves improperly.
Never let a child ride with the
shoulder belt under their arm or
behind their back. Always proper
ly position and secure children in
rear seat.(Continued)
(Continued)
•Never allow a child to standup or
kneel on the seat or floorboard of
a moving vehicle. During a colli
sion or sudden stop, the child can
be violently thrown against the
vehicles interior, resulting in seri
ous injury.
•Never use an infant carrier or a
child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback, it may not pro
vide adequate security in an acci
dent.
•Seat belts can become very hot,
especially when the ca
r is parked
in direct sunlight. Always check
seat belt buckles before fasten
ing them over a child.
•After an accident, we recom
mend that the system be
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
•If there is not enough space to
place the child restraint system
because of the driver's seat,
install the child restraint system
in the rear right seat.

Using a child restraint system
For small children and babies, the
use of a child seat or infant seat is
required. This child seat or infant
seat should be of appropriate size for
the child and should be installed in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. For safety reasons, we recommend
that the child restraint system is used
in the rear seats.

Forwardfacing child restraint system
Rearwardfacing child restraint system
Never place a rearfacing child
restraint in the front passenger
seat, because of the danger that
an inflating passengerside air bag
could impact the rearfacing child
restraint and kill the child.
WARNING
Child seat installation
•A child can be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the child
restraint is not properly
anchored to the car and the
child is not properly restrained in
the child restraint. Before
installing the child restraint sys
tem, read the instructions sup
plied by the child restraint sys
tem manufacturer.
•If the seat belt does not operate
as described in this section, we
recommend that the system be
ch

ecked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
•Failure to observe this manual's
instructions regarding child
restraint system and the instruc
tions provided with the child
restraint system could increase
the risk and\for severity of injury
in an accident.

Installing a child restraint systemby lap\fshoulder belt
To install a child restraint system on
the outboard or center rear seats, do
the following:
1. Place the child restraint system in
the seat and route the lap\fshoul
der belt around or through the
restraint, following the restraintmanufacturer’s instructions. Be
sure the seat belt webbing is not
twisted. 2. Fasten the lap\fshoulder belt latch
into the buckle. Listen for the dis
tinct “click” sound.Position the release button so that it is easy to access in case of an emergency.
3. Buckle the seat belt and allow the seat belt to take up any slack. After
installation of the child restraint
system, try to move it in all direc
tions to be sure the child restraint
system is securely installed.
If you need to tighten the belt, pull
more webbing toward the retractor.
When you unbuckle the seat belt and

How does the air bag system
operate
• Air bags are activated (able to
inflate if necessary) only when the
ignition switch is placed to the ON
or START position.
• Air bags inflate instantly in the event of serious frontal or side col
lision in order to help protect the
occupants from serious physical
injury.
• There is no single speed at which the air bags will inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision and its direction. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce an electronic
deployment\f inflation signal.
• Air bag deployment depends on a number of factors including vehicle
speed, angles of impact and the
density and stiffness of the vehi
cles or objects which your vehicle
hits in the collision. The determin
ing, factors are not limited to those
mentioned above. • The front air bags will completely
inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to
see the air bags inflate during an
accident.
It is much more likely that you will
simply see the deflated air bags
hanging out of their storage com
partments after the collision.
• In order to help provide protection in a severe collision, the air bags
must inflate rapidly. The speed of
air bag inflation is a consequence
of extremely short time in which a
collision occurs and the need to
get the air bag between the occu
pant and the vehicle structures
before the occupant impacts those
structures. This speed of inflation
reduces the risk of serious or life
threatening injuries in a severe col
lision and is thus a necessary part
of air bag design.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include
facial abrasions, bruises and bro
ken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force.•Even in vehicles with air bags,
you and your passengers must
always wear the safety belts pro
vided in order to minimize the risk
and severity of injury in the event
of a collision or rollover.
•SRS and pretensioners contain
explosive chemicals.
If scraping a vehicle without
removing SRS and pretensioners
from a vehicle, it may cause fire.
Before scraping a vehicle, we
recommend that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
•Keep the SRS parts and wirings
away from water or any liquid. If
the SRS components are inoper
ative due to exposure to water or
liquids, it may cause fire or severe
injury.
WARNING


"&t%'s%st&'!"'%!'&&

• There are even circumstancesunder which contact with the steer
ing wheel air bag can cause fatal
injuries, especially if the occupant is
positioned excessively close to the
steering wheel.Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make
a loud noise and they leave smoke
and powder in the air inside of the
vehicle. This is normal and is a result
of the ignition of the air bag inflator.
After the air bag inflates, you may
feel substantial discomfort in breath
ing due to the contact of your chest
with both the seat belt and the air
bag, as well as from breathing the
smoke and powder. Open your doors
and\for windows as soon as possible
after impact in order to reduce dis
comfort and prevent prolonged expo
sure to the smoke and powder.
Though smoke and powder are non
toxic, it may cause irritation to the
skin (eyes, nose and throat, etc.). If
this is the case, wash and rinse with
cold water immediately and consult
with the doctor if the symptom per
sists.
•To avoid severe personal injury
or death caused by deploying air
bags in a collision, the driver
should sit as far back from the
steering wheel air bag as possi
ble. The front passenger should
always move their seat as far
back as possible and sit back in
their seat.
•Air bag inflates instantly in an
event of a collision, passengers
may be injured by the air bag
expansion force if they are not in
a proper position.
•Air bag inflation may cause
injuries including facial or bodily
abrasions, injuries from broken
glasses or burns.
When the air bags deploy, the air
bag related parts in the steering
wheel and\for instrument panel
and\for in both sides of the roof
rails above the front and rear
doors are very hot. To prevent
injury, do not touch the air bag
storage areas internal compo
nents immediately after an air bag
has inflated.

WARNING


"&t%'s%st&'!"'%!'&&

When the ignition switch is turned
ON, the warning light should illumi
nate for approximately 6 seconds,
then go off.
Have the system checked if:
• The light does not turn on brieflywhen you turn the ignition ON.
• The light stays on after illuminating for approximately 6 seconds.
• The light comes on while the vehi cle is in motion.
• The light blinks when the ignition switch is in ON position.SRS components and functions
The SRS consists of the following
components:
(1) Driver's front air bag module*
(2) Passenger's front air bag module*
(3) Pretensioner seatbelt system*
(4) Air bag warning light*
(5) SRS control module (SRSCM)*
(6) Front impact sensors*
(7) Side impact air bag modules*
(8) Curtain air bag modules *
(9) Side impact sensors *
* : if equipped The SRSCM continuously monitors
all SRS components while the igni
tion switch is ON to determine if a
crash impact is severe enough to
require air bag deployment or pre
tensioner seat belt deployment.
The SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument panel will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position,
after which the air bag warning light
should go out.

A fully inflated air bag, in combina
tion with a properly worn seat belt,
slows the driver's or the passenger's
forward motion, reducing the risk of
head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag
immediately star ts deflating,
enabling the driver to maintain for
ward visibility and the ability to steer
or operate other controls.

•Do not install or place any acces
sories (drink holder, cassette
holder, sticker, etc.) on the front
passenger's panel above the
glove box in a vehicle with a pas
senger's air bag. Such objects
may become dangerous projec
tiles and cause injury if the pas
senger's air bag inflates.

WARNING
(Continued)
•When installing a container of
liquid air freshener inside the
vehicle, do not place it near the
instrument cluster nor on the
instrument panel surface.
It may become a dangerous projectile and cause injury if the pas
senger's air bag inflates.
•If an air bag deploys, there may
be a loud noise followed by a
fine dust released in the vehicle.
These conditions are normal and
are not hazardous the air bags
are packed in this fine powder.
The dust generated during air
bag deployment may cause skin
or eye irritation as well as aggra
vate asthma for some persons.
Always wash all exposed skin
areas thoroughly with cold water
and a mild soap after an acci
dent in which

the air bags were
deployed.

Driver's and passenger's front air
bag (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag)
System and lap\fshoulder belts at
both the driver and passenger seat
ing positions. The indications of the system's pres
ence are the letters "AIR BAG"
engraved on the air bag pad cover in
the steering wheel and the passen
ger's side front panel pad above the
glove box.
The SRS consists of air bags
installed under the pad covers in the
center of the steering wheel and the
passenger's side front panel above
the glove box.
The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the vehicle's driver and\for the front
passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt sys
tem alone in case of a frontal impact
of sufficient severity.
(Continued)
•The SRS can function only
when the ignition switch is in the
ON position.
•Before you replace a fuse or dis
connect a battery terminal, turn
the ignition switch to the LOCK
position and remove the ignition
key. Never remove or replace
the air bag related fuse(s) when
the ignition switch is in the ON
position. Failure to heed this
warning will cause the SRS air
bag warning light to illuminate.

•Front and side impact air bags
can injure occupants improperly
positioned in the front seats.
•Move your seat as far back as
practical from the front air bags,
while still maintaining control of
the vehicle.
•You and your passengers
should never sit or lean unnec
essarily close to the air bags.
Improperly positioned drivers
and passengers can be severe
ly injured by inflating air bags.
•Never lean against the door or
center console – always sit in an
upright position.
(Continued)
Always use seat belts and child
restraints – every trip, every time,
everyone! Air bags inflate with
considerable force and in the blink
of an eye. Seat belts help keep
occupants in proper position to
obtain maximum benefit from the
air bag. Even with air bags,
improperly and unbelted occu
pants can be severely injured
when the air bag inflates. Always
follow the precautions about seat
belts, air bags and occupant safe
t

y contained in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious
or fatal injuries and receive the
maximum safety benefit from your
restraint system:
•Never place a child in any child
or booster seat in the front seat.
•ABC – Always Buckle Children in
the back seat. It is the safest
place for children of any age to
ride. (Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
•No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular 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 mir
r
or.
•Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring or other components
of the SRS system. Doing so
could result in injury, due to acci
dental deployment of the air
bags or by rendering the SRS
inoperative.
•If the SRS air bag warning light
remains illuminated while the
vehicle is being driven, we rec
ommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
