The side air bags and front center side
air bag are designed to deploy during
certain side impact collisions, depending
on the crash severity.
For vehicles equipped with a rollover
sensor the front center side air bag,
side and/or curtain air bags and pre-
tensioners on both sides of the vehicle
may deploy if a rollover or possible
rollover is detected.
The side air bags and front center side air
bag are not designed to deploy in all side
impact or rollover situations.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating side air bag
and front center side air bag, take the
following precautions:

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

[Do not allow passengers to lean their
heads or bodies onto doors, put their
arms on the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place objects
between the doors and seats.

[Hold the steering wheel at the 9
o’clock and 3 o’clock positions, to
minimize the risk of injuries to your
hands and arms.

[Do not use any accessory seat
covers. This could reduce or prevent
the effectiveness of the system.

[Do not hang objects over the airbags.
In an accident it may cause vehicle
damage or personal injury especially
when air bag is inflated.
[Do not place any objects over the
air bag or between the air bag and
yourself. Also, do not attach any
objects around the area the air bag
inflates such as the door, side door
glass, front and rear pillar.

[Do not place any objects between
the door and the seat. They may
become dangerous projectiles if the
side air bag inflates.

[Do not install any accessories on the
side or near the side air bags.

[Do not cause impact to the doors
when the Start/Stop button is in the
ON or START position as this may
cause the side air bags to inflate.

[If the seat or seat cover is damaged,
have the system be serviced by
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

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
During a moderate to severe frontal
collision, sensors will detect the
vehicle’s rapid deceleration. If the rate of
deceleration is high enough, the control
unit will inflate the front air bags, at the
time and with the force needed.
The front air bags help protect the driver
and front passenger by responding to
frontal impacts in which seat belts alone
cannot provide adequate restraint. The
side air bags help provide protection in
certain side impacts or rollover accidents
by supporting the side upper body area.

[Air bags are activated (able to inflate
if necessary) only when the Start/Stop
button is in the ON or START position,
and it can be activated within about 3
minutes after the vehicle is turned off.

[Air bags inflate in the event of certain
frontal or side collisions to help
protect the occupants from serious
physical injury.

[Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision, its direction, or etc. These
two factors determine whether
the sensors produce an electronic
deployment/inflation signal.

[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 compartments after
the collision.
[In addition to inflating in serious side
collisions, vehicles equipped with a
rollover sensor, side and/or curtain air
bags will inflate if the sensing system
detects a rollover.
When a rollover is detected, curtain
air bags will remain inflated longer to
help provide protection from ejection,
especially when used in conjunction
with the seat belts (if equipped with a
rollover sensor).

[To help provide protection, the air
bags must inflate rapidly. The speed
of air bag inflation is a consequence
of extremely short time in which
to inflate the air bag between the
occupant and the vehicle structures
before the occupant impacts those
structures. This speed of inflation
reduces the risk of serious or life-
threatening injuries and is thus a
necessary part of air bag design.
However, the rapid air bag inflation
can also cause injuries which can
include facial abrasions, bruises and
broken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force.

[There are even circumstances under
which contact with the air bag can
cause fatal injuries, especially if the
occupant is positioned excessively
close to the air bag.
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air bag.
The greatest risk is sitting too close to
the air bag. An air bag needs about 10
in. (25 cm) of space to inflate. NHTSA
recommends that drivers allow at least
10 in. (25 cm) between the center of the
steering wheel and the chest.

Seats and Safety System
OHI038118
Proper seated position for OCS
If the “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF”
indicator is on when an adult is seated
in the front passenger seat, place the
Start/Stop button in the OFF position and
ask the passenger to sit properly (sitting
upright with the seat back in an upright
position, centered on the seat cushion
with their seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and their feet on the floor).
Restart the vehicle and have the person
remain in that position. This will allow
the system to detect the person and
to enable the passenger air bag. If the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator is
still on, ask the passenger to move to the
rear seat.
WARNING
NEVER allow an adult passenger to ride
in the front passenger seat when the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator
is illuminated. During a collision, the
air bag will not inflate if the indicator
is illuminated. Have your passenger
reposition themselves in the seat. If the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator
remains illuminated after the passenger
repositions themselves properly
and the vehicle is restarted, have
the passenger move to the rear seat
because the air bag will not inflate.
NOTICE
The “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF”
indicator generally illuminates for
approximately 4 seconds after the
Start/Stop button is in the ON or START
position. But, if the START/STOP button
is pressed to the ON or START position
within 3 minutes after the vehicle is
turned OFF, the indicator does not
illuminate. If the front passenger seat
is occupied, the OCS will then classify
the front passenger after several more
seconds.

Do not install a Child Restraint
System on the Front Passenger’s
Seat
OHI039193N
Even though your vehicle is equipped
with the OCS, never install a child
restraint in the front passenger’s seat.
An inflating air bag can forcefully strike a
child or child restraint resulting in serious
or fatal injury.
WARNING

[NEVER place a rear-facing or front-
facing child restraint in the front
passenger’s seat of the vehicle.

[An inflating frontal air bag could
forcefully strike a child resulting in
serious injury or death.

[Always properly restrain children in
an appropriate child restraint in the
rear seat of the vehicle.
Why didn’t my air bag go off in a
collision?
There are certain types of accidents in
which the air bag would not be expected
to provide additional protection. These
include rear impacts, second or third
collisions in multiple impact accidents,
as well as low speed impacts. Damage to
the vehicle indicates a collision energy
absorption, and is not an indicator of
whether or not an air bag should have
inflated.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag
deploying unexpectedly and causing
serious injury or death:

[Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where air bags
or sensors are installed.

[Do not perform maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors. If the
location or angle of the sensors is
altered, the air bags may deploy
when they should not or may not
deploy when they should.

[Do not install bumper guards or
replace the bumper with a non-
genuine Genesis part. This may
adversely affect the collision and air
bag deployment performance.

[Press the Start/Stop button to the
OFF or ACC position and wait for 3
minutes when the vehicle is being
towed to prevent inadvertent air bag
deployment.

[Have all air bag repairs conducted
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

Seats and Safety System
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 Start/Stop button is in the
ON position, or continuously remains
on, have the system be immediately
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
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 an
authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products. Improper handling of the SRS
system may result in serious personal
Injuries. 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.

[Always have inflated air bags be
replaced by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.

[If components of the air bag system
must be discarded, or if the vehicle
must be scrapped, certain safety
precautions must be observed.
Consult an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products for the
necessary information. Failure to
follow these precautions could
increase the risk of personal injury.

Additional Safety Precautions
Passengers should not move out of
or change seats while 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 Start/Stop
button is in the ON or START position
may cause the air bags to inflate.
Modifications to accommodate
disabilities. If you require modification
to your vehicle to accommodate a
disability, contact Genesis Customer
Care at 844 340-9741.
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.
