3. GENERAL WARNINGS
Do not diagnose the circuit with a circuit tester or attempt to modify any air bag components
including the steering wheel, air bag mounting area and harness.
Incorrect inspection could cause a problem with an air bag and seat belt pretensioner, and
they cannot protect occupants properly. Inspection and repair service should be done only by
a qualified technician.
An infant or a child should not be seated on the front seat alone or on an adult's lap. An infant
or a child could be severely injured by air bag deployed.
A child restraint system should be placed on the rear seat which has the 3-point type seat belt.
Never install a child restraint system on the front seat. Impact by the air bag inflation might
cause severe injury or even death.
When an occupant fastens the seat belt with unstable or inclined posture, the air bag cannot
protect the occupant properly. Moreover, the occupant may be injured by the air bag.
Do not incline toward the steering wheel while driving. If you hit the air bag before it is fully
inflated, brain or neck injury, or even death can occur.
Be careful not to strike the steering wheel, air bag mounting area, any air bag related
component (including wiring) and seat belt pretensioner. You might get severely injured by
sudden deployment of the air bag.
The air bag contains explosive materials, so handle it carefully when disposing or replacing it.
The air bag components will be very hot immediately after deployment. Do not touch them until
they cool down.
Once the air bag/seat belt pretentioner is triggered, it will not deploy again even if an additional
impact is applied to it. Once triggered air bag/seat belt pretensioner related components
cannot be reused, so they should be removed from the vehicle and the whole system should
be replaced with a new one.
Do not place any object or sticker on the air bag mounting area for correct and safe activation
of the air bag.
Do not bang the door. Otherwise, an air bag might operate erroneously.
Hold the outer rim of the steering so that the air bag can inflate without any hindrance.
Do not incline toward the steering wheel or hold the steering wheel with your hands crossed. It
will cause a problem with the air bag activation or severe injury when the air bag inflates.
Never put your hands or feet on the dash board. You can severely injured when the air bag
inflates.
It is normal that a loud noise, dust and smoke occur when the air bag and seat belt
pretensioner operate.
The gas come out of air bag/seat belt pretensioner activation is non-toxic nitrogen gas.
However, if this gas occurs irritation to your skin, eyes, nose, and so on, wash it out with clean
water. Seek medical help if symptoms develop. -

5. AIR BAG WARNING LAMP OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS
The air bag warning lamp on the instrument panel has a few operational conditions. The following
are the conditions:
When Turning the Ignition Switch to ON Position Initially ▶
The air bag unit performs a turn-on test when the ignition is turned on initially. The air bag unit
flashes the air bag warning lamp 6 times at 1 Hz interval. After that, the air bag warning lamp will
go off if no malfunction have been detected.
When the Air Bag Unit Detects Any Malfunctions in Unit ▶
When the Air Bag Unit Detects Any Intermittent Failure ▶ When it is recorded as a system failure in the air bag unit, the air bag warning lamp on the
instrument panel comes on for about 6 seconds and goes off for 1 second. Then the waning
lamp stays on.
When, due to an error from outside the system, the intermittent failure signal is received 5 times or
less, the air bag warning lamp comes on for about 6 seconds and then, goes off.
