o Before you replace a fuse or discon-
nect a battery terminal, turn the igni-
tion key to the "LOCK" position and
remove the ignition key. Never re-
move or replace the airbag related
fuse(s) when the ignition key is in the
"ON" position. Failure to heed this
warning will cause the SRS "AIR
BAG" warning light to illuminate.
WARNING:
The occupant classification system cre-
ates a field which is designed to detect
the presence of a properly-seated front
passenger and determine if the
passenger's front air bag should be en-
abled (may inflate) or not. The driver's
front air bag is not affected or controlled
by the occupant classification system.Main components of occupant clas-
sification system• An Electronic Capacity measurement
system in the front passenger seat
which detects major characteristics of
a person or object on the seat.
Electronic system to determine whether
the passenger air bag systems (both
front and side) should be activated or
deactivated.
A warning light located on the instru-
ment panel which illuminates the words
"PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicat-
ing the front passenger air bag system
is deactivated.
The instrument panel air bag warning
light is interconnected with the occu-
pant classification system.

Occupant classification systemYour vehicle is equipped with an occu-
pant classification system in the front
passenger's seat.If the front passenger seat is occupied by
a person that the system determines to be
of an appropriate size, and he/she sits
properly, the "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicator will be turned off and the
front passenger's air bag will be able to
inflate, if necessary, in frontal crashes
(sitting properly means sitting upright with
the seatback in an upright position, cen-
tered on the seat cushion with their seat
belt on, legs comfortably extended and
their feet on the floor).
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 activates or deac-
tivates the front passenger air bag based
on these conditions.

WARNING:
If the occupant classification system is
not working properly, the SRS air bag
warning light on the instrument panel
will illuminate because the passenger's
front air bag is connected with the occu-
pant classification system. If there is a
malfunction of the occupant classifica-
tion system, the "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicator will not illuminate and the
passenger's front air bag will inflate in
frontal impact crashes even if there is no
occupant in the front passenger's seat.
If the SRS air bag warning light does not
illuminate when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, remains illu-
minated after approximately 6 seconds
when the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position, or if it illuminates while the
vehicle is being driven, have an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer inspect the occu-
pant classification system and the SRS
air bag system as soon as possible.
!
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 Air bags can only be used once –
have an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
replace the air bag immediately after
deployment.
o The occupant classification system
may not work properly if water, cof-
fee or any other liquid including rain
gets on the seat. Keep the front seat
dry at all times.
o Do not place an electronic device
such as a laptop computer on the
front passenger seat. Its electronic
field may cause the OCS to switch to
the "on" condition and thus allow the
passenger airbag to deploy need-
lessly in a collision, increasing your
repair costs.
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.

B240D02NF-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
moving. A passenger who is not wear-
ing a seat belt during a crash or emer-
gency stop can be thrown against the
inside of the vehicle, against other
occupants, or out of the vehicle.
oEach seat belt is designed to re-
strain 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 oc-
cupant comfort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection pro-
vided 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 objects on your lap or in your
mouth can result in injuries if an airbag
inflates.
!
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 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 re-
sult in injury, due to accidental infla-
tion 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
precautions must be observed. Your
Hyundai dealer knows these precau-
tions and can give you the neces-
sary information. Failure to follow
these precautions and procedures
could increase the risk of personal
injury.
!
WARNING:
o If your car was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or there is water
on the floor, do not start the engine;
have the car towed to an authorized
Hyundai dealer.

WARNING:
o Pay particular attention to the driv-
ing conditions whenever using the
cruise control system.
o Be careful when driving downhill
using the cruise control system,
which may increase the vehicle
speed.
!
CAUTION:
During cruise-speed driving of a manual
transaxle vehicle, do not shift into neu-
tral without depressing the clutch pedal,
since the engine will be overrevved. If
this happens, depress the clutch pedal
or release the cruise control ON/OFF
switch.NOTE:During normal cruise control operation,
when the -/SET switch is activated or
reactivated after applying the brakes,
the cruise control will energize after ap-
proximately 3 seconds. This delay is
normal.
E090100AMCTo set cruise control speed:1. Push the CRUISE ON-OFF button on
the steering wheel to turn the system
on. The CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster will illuminate.
2. Accelerate to the desired speed, which
must be more than 25 mph (40 km/h).
OMC039300
CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEME090000AMC(If Installed)The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con-
stant speed without resting your foot on
the accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function above
approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
!
WARNING:
o If the cruise control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster illuminated) the cruise
control can be switched on acciden-
tally. Keep the cruise control sys-
tem off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in use,
to avoid inadvertently setting a
speed.
o Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
o Do not use the cruise control when it
may not be safe to keep the car at a
constant speed, for instance, driving
in heavy or varying traffic, or on
slippery (rainy, icy or snow-covered)
or winding roads or over 6% up-hill
or down-hill roads.
