Pre-Tensioner Seat Belt
Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with driver's
and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts.
The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to make
sure that the seat belts fit tightly against the
occupant's body in certain frontal collisions. The
pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated alone
or, where the frontal collision is severe enough,
together with the airbags.
When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the
occupant tries to lean forward too quickly, the
seat belt retractor will lock into position. In
certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will
activate and pull the seat belt into tighter
contact against the occupant's body.

WARNING:To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-
tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn correctly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the
correct position. mode, the belt will be locked. After installation
of the child restraint system, try to move it in
all directions 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 allow it to retract, the retractor will auto-
matically revert back to its normal seated
passenger emergency locking usage condition.
NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint sys-
tem, read the instructions supplied by the
child restraint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as de-
scribed, have the system checked imme-
diately by your authorized Hyundai dealer.
WARNING:o If the retractor is not in the Automatic
Locking mode, the child restraint system
can move when your vehicle turns or
stops abruptly.
o Do not install any child restraint system
in the front passenger seat. Should an
accident occur and cause the passenger
side airbag to deploy, it could severely
injure or kill an infant or child seated in an
infant or child seat. Therefore, only use a
child restraint system in the rear seat of
your vehicle.

29DUAL-STAGE SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (SRS)
B240A01A-AAT
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Dual-stage
Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System. The
indications of the system's presence are the
letters "SRS AIRBAG" embossed on the airbag
pad cover in the steering wheel and the
passenger's side front panel pad above the
glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed
under the pad covers in the center of the steer-
ing 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/or the front
passenger with additional protection than that
offered by the seat-belt system alone, in case of
a frontal impact of sufficient severity.
B240A03A
Driver's AirbagThe dual-stage SRS uses a collection of sen-
sors to gather information about the driver's
and front passenger's seat position, the
driver's and front passenger's seat belt usage
and impact severity.
The driver's and front passenger's seat posi-
tion sensors determine if the seats are fore or
aft of a reference position. Similarly, the seat
belt usage sensors determine if the driver and
front passenger's seat belts are fastened.
These sensors provide the ability to control
the SRS deployment's pressure based on how
close the driver's seat is to the steering wheel,
how close the passenger's seat is to the
instrument panel and whether or not the seat
belts are fastened.
The dual-stage airbags offer the ability to control
the airbag inflation with two pressure levels. A
lower pressure level is provided for moderate-
severity impacts. A higher-pressure level is pro-
vided for more severe impacts.
NOTE:o Be sure to read information about the
SRS on the labels provided on the back-
side of the sun visor and in the glove box.
WARNING:o As its name implies, the SRS is de-
signed to work with, and be supple-
mental to, the driver's and the
passenger's three point seat belt sys-
tems and is not a substitute for them.
Therefore, your seat belts must be worn
at all times while the vehicle is in mo-
tion. The airbags deploy only in certain
frontal impact conditions severe
enough to cause significant injury to
the vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the
airbags only when an impact is suffi-
ciently severe and when the impact
angle is less than 30° from the forward
longitudinal axis of the vehicle and will
not deploy in side, rear or rollover im-
pacts. Additionally, the airbags will only
deploy once. Thus, seat belts must be
worn at all times.
!
o Dual-stage inflating airbags are com-
bined with pre-tensioner seat belts to
help provided enhanced occupant pro-
tection in frontal crashes. Front airbags
are not intended to deploy in light
collisions in which protection can be
provided by the pre-tensioner seat belt.

!WARNING:o When the SRS is activated, there may
be a loud noise and fine dust will be
released throughout the vehicle. These
conditions are normal and are not haz-
ardous. However, the fine dust gener-
ated during airbag deployment may
cause skin irritation. Wash your hands
and face thoroughly with lukewarm wa-
ter and a mild soap after an accident in
which the airbags were deployed. Passenger's Airbag

WARNING:o The SRS can function only when the
ignition key is in the "ON" position. If
the SRS SRI does not come on, or
continuously remains on, after flash-
ing for about 6 seconds when the igni-
tion key is turned to the "ON" position,
or after the engine is started, comes on
while driving, the SRS is not working
properly. If this occurs, have your vehi-
cle immediately inspected by your
Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or discon-
nect a battery terminal, turn the igni-
tion key to the "LOCK" position or
remove the ignition key. Never remove
or replace the air bag related fuse(s)
when the ignition key is in the "ON"
position. Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS SRI to illuminate.
CAUTION:When installing a container of liquid air
freshener inside the vehicle, do not place it
near the instrument cluster nor on the in-
strument panel surface. If there is any leak-
age from the air freshener onto these areas
(instrument cluster, instrument panel or air
ventilator), it may damage these parts. If the
liquid from the air freshener does leak onto
these areas, wash them with water immedi-
ately.

WARNING:o For best protection from the side im-
pact airbag system and to avoid being
injured by the deploying side impact
airbag, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright position with
the seat belt properly fastened. The
driver's hands should be placed on the
steering wheel at the 9:00 and 3:00
o'clock positions.
The passenger's arms and hands should
be placed on their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat covers.
o Use of seat covers could reduce or pre-
vent the effectiveness of the system.
o Do not install any accessories on the side
or near the side impact airbag.
o Do not use excessive force on the side of
the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag
or between the airbag and yourself.
o Do not place any objects (an umbrella,
bag, etc.) between the front door and the
front seat. Such objects may become dan-
gerous projectiles and cause injury if the
supplemental side impact airbag inflates.

WARNING:o The side impact airbag is supplemental to
the driver's and the passenger's three
point seat belt systems and is not a sub-
stitute for them. Therefore your seat belts
must be worn at all times while the ve-
hicle is in motion. The airbags deploy
only in certain side impact conditions
severe enough to cause significant injury
to the vehicle occupants.
B990B04Y-GAT
Side Impact Airbag (If Installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impact
airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the
airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or
the front passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt alone. The side
impact airbags are designed to deploy only
during certain side impact collisions, depending
on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of
impact. The side impact airbags are not de-
signed to deploy in all side impact situations.
