WARNING:
o No objects should be placed over or
near the airbag modules on the steer-
ing wheel, instrument panel, and the
front passenger's panel above the glove
box, because any such object could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a crash
severe enough to cause the airbags to
deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must be
replaced by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the SRS
system. Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental firing of the airbags
or by rendering the SRS inoperative.
o Do not install a child restraint system in
the front passenger seat position. A
child restraint system must never be
placed in the front seat. The infant or
child could be severely injured or killed
by an airbag deployment in case of an
accident.
o Do not allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat. If older children (teen-
agers and older) must ride in the front
seat, make sure they are always prop-
erly belted and that the seat is moved
back as far as possible.
WARNING:
o For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, all occupants includ-
ing the driver should always wear their
seat belts whether or not an airbag is
also provided at their seating position
to minimize the risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a crash. Do not sit
or lean unnecessarily close to the airbag
while the vehicle is in motion.
o Sitting improperly or out of position
can result in serious or fatal injury in a
crash. All occupants should sit upright
in their seats with their feet on the floor
until the vehicle is parked and the igni-
tion key is removed.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy
very rapidly to provide protection in a
crash. If an occupant is out of position
because of not wearing a seat belt, the
airbag may forcefully contact the occu-
pant causing serious or fatal injuries.
!
!
o Front airbags are not intended to de-
ploy in side-impact, rear-impact or
rollover crashes. In addition, airbags
will not deploy in frontal crashes below
the deployment threshold speed.
o The driver should sit back as far as
possible while still maintaining control
of the vehicle. If you are sitting too
close to the airbag, it can cause death
or serious injury when it inflates.

1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI32
The SRSCM continually monitors all elements
while the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontal
or near-frontal impact is severe enough to re-
quire airbag deployment.
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on
the instrument panel will blink for about 6
seconds after the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position or after the engine is started,
after which the SRI should go out.
The airbag modules are located both in the
center of the steering wheel and in the front
passenger's panel above the glove box. When
the SRSCM detects a considerable impact to
the front of the vehicle, it will automatically
deploy the airbags.
A fully inflated airbag in combination with a
properly worn seat belt slows the driver's or
the passenger's forward motion, thus reduc-
ing the risk of head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the airbag immediately
starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain
forward visibility.

SRS Components and FunctionsThe SRS consists of the following compo-
nents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- Knee Bolster
- Pre-tensioner seat belt
- Front impact sensors
- Driver's and front passenger's seat belt usage
sensors
- Driver's and front passenger's seat position
sensors
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
B240B01L
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly
into the pad covers will separate under pres-
sure from the expansion of the airbags. Fur-
ther opening of the covers then allows full
inflation of the airbags.

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 illuminate, or
continuously remains on, after flashing
for about 6 seconds when the ignition
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 disconnect
a battery terminal, turn the ignition 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.

Side airbag
sensor
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-GATSide 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.

WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint system in
the front passenger seat position.
A child restraint system must never be
placed in the front seat. The infant or
baby could be severely injured by an
airbag deployment in case of an acci-
dent.
o Modification to SRS components or
wir-ing, including the addition of any
kind of badges to the pad covers or
modifications to the body structure,
can adversely affect SRS performance
and lead to possible injury.
B240C03A-AATSRS Careo The SRS is virtually maintenance free and there
are no parts you can safely service by yourself.
The entire SRS system must be inspected by
an authorized Hyundai dealer in 10 years after
the date that the vehicle was manufactured.
o Any work on the SRS system, such as remov-
ing, installing, repairing, or any work on the
steering wheel must be performed by a qualified
Hyundai technician. Improper handling of the
airbag system may result in serious personal
injury.
B240C01HP
o To prevent unexpected deployment of
the side impact air bag that may result
in personal injury, avoid impact to the
side impact airbag sensor when the
ignition key is on.
WARNING:
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use
only a soft, dry cloth or one which has
been moistened with plain water. Sol-
vents or cleaners could adversely affect
the airbag covers and proper deployment
of the system.
o No objects should be placed over or
near the airbag modules on the steer-
ing wheel, instrument panel, and the
front passenger's panel above the glove
box, because any such object could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a crash
severe enough to cause the airbags to
inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must be
replaced by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the SRS
system. Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental inflation of the airbags
or by rendering the SRS inoperative.
o If components of the airbag system
must be discarded, or if the vehicle
must be scrapped, certain safety pre-
cautions must be observed. Your
Hyundai dealer knows these precau-
tions and can give you the necessary
information. Failure to follow these
precautions and procedures could in-
crease the risk of personal injury.

oEach seat belt is designed to restrain
one occupant. If more than one person
uses the same seat belt, they could be
seriously injured or killed in a collision.
oDo not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiming to improve occu-
pant 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.
oPassengers should not place hard or
sharp objects between themselves and
the airbags. Carrying hard or sharp ob-
jects on your lap or in your mouth can result
in injuries if an airbag inflates.
oKeep occupants away from the airbag
covers. All occupants should sit upright,
fully back in their seats with their seat belts
on and their feet on the floor. If occupants
are too close to the airbag covers, they
could be injured if the airbags inflate.
oDo not attach or place objects on or
near the airbag covers. Any object at-
tached to or placed on the front or side
impact airbag covers could interfere with
the proper operation of the airbags.
oDo not modify the front seats. Modifica-
tion of the front seats could interfere with
the operation of the supplemental restraint
system sensing components or side im-
pact airbags.
B240D01JM-AATAdditional Safety PrecautionsoNever let passengers ride in the cargo
area (trunk) or on top of a folded-down
back seat. All occupants should sit upright,
fully back in their seats with their seat belts
on and their feet on the floor.
oPassengers should not move out of or
change seats while the vehicle is mov-
ing. 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 out of the
vehicle. o If you sell your vehicle, be sure to
inform the new owner of these impor-
tant points and make certain that this
manual is transferred to the new owner.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked
carpeting or water on the floor, you
shouldn't try to start the engine; have
the car towed to an authorized Hyundai
dealer.oDo 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.
oNever hold an infant or child on your
lap. The infant or child could be seriously
injured or killed in the event of a crash. All
infants and children should be properly
restrained in appropriate child safety seats
or seat belts in the rear seat.
WARNING:
o Sitting improperly or out of position
can result in serious injury or death in
a crash.
o Always sit upright, fully back in the
seat, with your seat belt on, and your
feet on the floor.Adding Equipment to or Modifying Your
Airbag-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 airbag system.
