Air bag inflation conditions
OBC3030027
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate
in a frontal collision depending on the
severity of impact of the front collision.
OBC3030028R
OAC3039029R
Side and curtain air bags
Side and curtain air bags are designed
to inflate when an impact is detected
by side collision sensors depending on
the severity of impact resulting from
a side impact collision. Although the
driver’s and front passenger’s air bags
are designed to inflate only in frontal
collisions, they also may inflate in other
types of collisions if the front impact
sensors detect a sufficient impact. Side
and curtain air bags are designed to
inflate only in side impact collisions, but
they may inflate in other collisions if the
side impact sensors detect a sufficient
impact. If the vehicle chassis is impacted
by bumps or objects on unimproved
roads, the air bags may deploy. Drive
carefully on unimproved roads or on
surfaces not designed for vehicle traffic to
prevent unintended air bag deployment.

03
Air bag non-inflation conditions
OBC3030029
In certain low-speed collisions the air
bags may not deploy. The air bags are
designed not to deploy in such cases
because they may not provide benefits
beyond the protection of the seat belts.
OBC3030030
Front air bags are not designed to inflate
in rear collisions, because occupants
are moved backward by the force of
the impact. In this case, inflated air
bags would not provide any additional
benefit.
OBC3030028R
Front air bags may not inflate in side
impact collisions, because occupants
move in the direction of the collision,
and thus in side impacts, front air
bag deployment would not provide
additional occupant protection.
However, side and curtain air bags may
inflate depending on the severity of
impact.
OGB034038
In an angled collision, the force of
impact may direct the occupants in a
direction where the air bags would not
be able to provide any additional benefit,
and thus the sensors may not deploy any
air bags.

3-56
Safety system
OBC3030032
Just before impact, drivers often brake
heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the
front portion of the vehicle causing it
to “ride” under a vehicle with a higher
ground clearance. Air bags may not
inflate in this “under-ride” situation
because deceleration forces that are
detected by sensors may be significantly
reduced by such “underride” collisions.
OHI038166
Front air bags may not inflate in
rollover accidents because front air
bag deployment would not provide
additional occupant protection.

inflate when the vehicle is rolled over
by a side impact collision, if the vehicle
is equipped with side and/or curtain air
bags.
OBC3030033
Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle
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.

3-57
03
SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and there are no parts you can safely
service by yourself. If the SRS air bag
warning light does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position, or continuously remains on,
we recommend that the system be
immediately inspected by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
We recommend any work on the SRS
system, such as removing, installing,
repairing, or any work on the steering
wheel, the front passenger’s panel, front
seats and roof rails be performed by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer. Improper
handling of the SRS system may result in
serious personal injury.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death take the following precautions:

[Do not attempt to modify or
disconnect the SRS components or
wiring, including the addition of any
kind of badges to the pad covers or
modifications to the body structure.

[Do not place objects over or near
the air bag modules on the steering
wheel, instrument panel, and the
front passenger’s panel above the
glove box.

[Clean the air bag pad covers with
a soft cloth moistened with plain
water. Solvents or cleaners could
adversely affect the air bag covers
and proper deployment of the
system.

[We recommend that inflated air bags
be replaced by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.

[If components of the air bag system
must be discarded, or if the vehicle
must be scrapped, certain safety
precautions must be observed.
We recommend that you consult a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer for
the necessary information. Failure
to follow these precautions could
increase the risk of personal injury.

Safety system
Additional safety precautions
Passengers should not move out of
or change seats whilst the vehicle 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
be ejected from the vehicle.
Do not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiming to improve
occupant comfort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provided
by the seat belt and increase the chance
of serious injury in a crash
Do not modify the front seats.
Modification of the front seats could
interfere with the operation of the
supplemental restraint system sensing
components or side air bags.
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 components and wiring
harnesses.
Do not cause impact to the doors.
Impact to the doors when the ignition
switch is in the ON position may cause
the air bags to inflate.
Adding equipment to or modifying
your air bag equipped vehicle
If you modify your vehicle by changing
your vehicle’s frame, bumper system,
front end or side sheet metal or ride
height, this may affect the operation of
your vehicle’s air bag system.
Air bag warning labels
(if equipped)
OAC3039035R
Air bag warning labels are attached to
alert the passengers of potential risks of
the air bag system.
Be sure to read all of the information
about the air bags that are installed on
your vehicle in this Owner’s Manual.

Instrument cluster control
You can adjust the brightness of the
instrument panel illumination form the
User Settings Mode on the LCD display
when the ignition switch is on ('Lights
J Illumination’). When the vehicle’s
parking lights or headlamps are on,
interior switch illumination intensity and
mood lamps are also adjusted.
If your vehicle is equipped with
additional navigation, please refer
to the infotainment system manual
separately supplied.
WARNING
Never adjust the instrument cluster
whilst driving. This could result in loss
of control and lead to an accident that
may cause death, serious injury, or
vehicle damage.
