B990B01MC-AAT 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 thevehicle's driver and/or the front passen- ger with additional protection than that offered by the seat belt alone. The sideimpact airbags are designed to deploy only during certain side impact colli- sions, depending on the crash severity,angle, speed and point of impact. The side impact airbags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations.

Chil- dren are afforded the most safetyin the event of an accident when they are restrained by a proper restraint system in the rear seat.
o As soon as deactivation is no longer needed, reactivate the frontpassenger's airbag.!WARNING:
o The driver is responsible for the proper position of the passenger's front airbag ON/OFF switch.
o Deactivate the front passenger's
airbag only when the ignitionswitch is switched off, or the mal- function may occur in the SRSCM (SRS Control Module). And theremay be a danger that the driver's and/or passenger's front and/or side and curtain airbag may fail totrigger, or not trigger correctly during a collision.

child seat on the front passenger'sseat. The infant or child could be severely injured or killed by anairbag deployment in case of an accident.

If the light comes on at any other time,you should slow the vehicle and bring itto a complete stop in a safe location off the roadway. The brake fluid level warn- ing light indicates that the brake fluidlevel in the brake master cylinder is low and hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications shouldbe added. After adding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the car should be immediately and carefully driven to aHyundai dealer for inspection. If further trouble is experienced, the vehicle should not be driven at all but taken toa dealer by a professional towing ser- vice or some other safe method. Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal braking systems. This means you still have braking on two wheels even if one of the dual systems shouldfail. With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal pressure are requiredto stop the car. Also, the car will not stop in as short a distance with only half of the brake system working. If thebrakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional engine brak- ing and stop the car as soon as it is safeto do so.
