B990B02MC-AATSide Impact AirbagYour 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 passen-
ger 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 im-
pact airbags are not designed to deploy
in all side impact situations.

!
WARNING:
o If you change the weight on the front
passenger seat just after sit-in or
restart of the engine, the "PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF" indicator may be
turned on or off for a few seconds,
disabling or enabling the passenger
airbags. After the initial stage of about
30 seconds, the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator will not toggle.
o Do not modify or replace the front
passenger seat. Don't place anything
on or attach anything such as a blan-
ket or after market seat heater to the
front passenger seat. This can ad-
versely affect the occupant classifi-
cation system.
o Do not sit on sharp objects such as
tools when occupying the front pas-
senger seat. This can adversely af-
fect the occupant classification sys-
tem.
o Do not use accessory seat covers
on the front seats.
!
WARNING:
o Accident statistics show that chil-
dren are safer if they are restrained
in the rear, as opposed to the front
seat. It is recommended that child
restraints be secured in a rear seat,
including an infant riding in a rear-
facing infant seat, a child riding in a
forward-facing child seat and an older
child riding in a booster seat.
o Airbags can only be used once –
have an authorized Hyundai dealer
replace the airbag immediately after
deployment.
