Information
• Both the driver's and front passen-ger's pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in certain frontal or side
collisions or rollovers.
• When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise may be
heard and fine dust, which may
appear to be smoke, may be visible
in the passenger compartment.
These are normal operating condi-
tions and are not hazardous.
• Although it is non-toxic, the fine dust may cause skin irritation and
should not be breathed for pro-
longed periods. Wash all exposed
skin areas thoroughly after an acci-
dent in which the pre-tensioner seat
belts were activated.
• The pre-tensioner seat belt system may get adversely affected by
installing an audio system to the
center console or welding/painting
the frontal vehicle body.
In this case, consult an authorized
Dealer of Genesis Brand Products.
The air bag warning light illumi-
nates, if there is a malfunction with
the pre-tensioner seat belt system.

tensioner seat belt system checked
by an authorized Dealer of Genesis
Brand Products.
- The air bag warning light does notilluminate at all after turning ON
the engine.
- The air bag warning light remains ON over 6 seconds after turning

Pre-Active Seat Belt (PSB)
(if equipped)
The purpose of the pre-active seat
belt is to tighten the seat belt when a
collision is sensed, during emer-
gency braking, or when a loss of
control is sensed.
The pre-active seat belt is a sup-
plementary system. The pre-active
seat belt activates only when the
passenger is wearing his/her seat
belt.
The pre-active seat belt warning will
turn on if there is a problem with your
pre-active seat belt.Have the system checked by an
authorized Dealer of Genesis Brand
Products if the warning message
comes on while the vehicle is in
motion. When the PSB warning mes-
sage disappears, the master warning
light ( ) will illuminate.
In order to maximize the safety of the
passenger, the pre-active seat belt
system operates as below.
Full retraction
The seat belt is tightened when:
- Emergency braking situation occurs
- Losing control of the vehicle
- The vehicle senses a collision
- Driving on a slippery frozen road
Slack removal Tightens a loose seat belt if vehicle
speed is over 9.3 mph (15 km/h).
Belt parking Tightens a loose seat belt when
the seat belt is unfastened.

Small children are best protected
from injury in an accident when prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat by a
child restraint system that meets the
requirements of the Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards. Before
buying any child restraint system,
make sure that it has a label certify-
ing that it meets Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard FMVSS
213. The restraint must be appropri-
ate for your child’s height and weight.
Check the label on the child restraint
for this information. Refer to the
"Child Restraint Systems" section in
this chapter.
Larger children
Children under age 13 and who are
too large for a booster seat must
always occupy the rear seat and use
the available lap/shoulder belts. A
seat belt should lie across the upper
thighs and be snug across the shoul-
der and chest to restrain the child
safely. Check belt fit periodically.
Children are afforded the most safe-
ty in the event of an accident when
they are restrained by a proper
restraint system and/or seat belts in
the rear seat. Always have the
LATCH system inspected by your
authorized Dealer of Genesis Brand
Products after an accident. An acci-
dent can damage the LATCH system
and may not properly secure the
child restraint.
If a larger child over age 13 must be
seated in the front seat, the child
must be securely restrained by the
available lap/shoulder belt and the
seat should be placed in the rear-
most position.If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child's neck or face, try
placing the child closer to the center
of the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck they need
to be returned to an appropriate
booster seat in the rear seat.
Transporting an injured person
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
Consult a physician for specific rec-
ommendations.
Always make sure children
are wearing their seat belts
and that they are properly
adjusted before driving.
NEVER allow the shoulder belt to contact the child’s
neck or face.
Do not allow more than one child to use a single seat belt.

Safety system of your vehicle
The SRSCM (Supplemental Restraint
System Control Module) continually
monitors all SRS components while
the Engine Start/Stop button is in the
ON position 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 (Supplement 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 elec-
trical system for malfunctions. The
light indicates that there is a potential
malfunction with your air bag system,
which could include your side and
curtain air bags used for rollover pro-
tection.
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 condi-
tions occur, your SRS is mal-
functioning:
The light does not turn on for approximately six seconds
when the engine Start/Stop
button is in the ON position.
The light stays on after illumi- nating for approximately six
seconds.
The light comes on while the vehicle is in motion.
The light blinks when the engine is running.
Have an authorized Dealer of
Genesis Brand Products
inspect the SRS as soon as
possible if any of these condi-
tions occur.

Main components of theOccupant Classification System
A detection device located within
the front passenger seat cushion.
Electronic system to determine whether the passenger air bag sys-
tems should be activated or deacti-
vated.
An indicator light located on the instrument panel which illuminates
the words "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicating the front passen-
ger air bag system is deactivated.
The instrument panel air bag indi- cator light is interconnected with
the OCS. The purpose is to help reduce the
risk of injury or death from an inflat-
ing air bag to certain front passenger
seat occupants, such as children, by
requiring the air bag to be automati-
cally turned OFF.
For example, if a child restraint of the
type specified in the regulations is on
the seat, the occupant classification
sensor can detect it and cause the
air bag to turn OFF.
Always be sure that you and all vehi-
cle occupants are seated properly
and wearing the seat belt properly for
the most effective protection by the
air bag and the seat belt.

*1The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller adult sits in the front
passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as a child depending on his/her physique
and posture.
*
2Do not allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. When a larger child who has out- grown a child restraint system sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize
him/her as an adult depending upon his/her physique or sitting position.
*
3Never install a child restraint system on the front passenger seat.
*4The PASSENGER AIR BAG "OFF" indicator may turn on or off when a child above 12 months
to 12 years old (with or without child restraint system) sits in the front passenger seat. This is
a normal condition.
You will find the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator on the center facia
panel. This system detects the conditions 1-4 in the following table and acti-
vates or deactivates the front passenger air bag based on these conditions.
When the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator illuminates with an
adult occupied on the front passenger's seat, the air bag may not
deploy in an accident. On the other hand, when the PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator does not illuminate with a child restraint system
installed on the front passenger's seat, the air bag may deploy in an
accident. In those cases, you should immediately move the occupant
or the child restraint system to a rear seat. In addition, have the sys-
tem inspected by an authorized Dealer of Genesis Brand Products.
WARNING
When the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator does not illuminate
with a child restraint system installed on the front passenger's seat,
you should immediately move the child restraint system to a rear
seat. It implies that the air bag for the front passenger's seat may
deploy in an accident.
