Safety features of your vehicle
Occupant detection system
Your vehicle is equipped with an occu-
pant detection system in the front pas-
senger's seat.
The occupant detection system is
designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated front passenger and
determine if the passenger's front air bag
should be enabled (may inflate) or not.
The driver's front air bag is not affected
or controlled by the occupant detection
system.
WARNING
If an air bag deploys, there maybe a loud noise followed by a fine
dust released in the vehicle.
These conditions are normal and
are not hazardous - the air bags
are packed in this fine powder.
The dust generated during air
bag deployment may cause skin
or eye irritation as well as aggra-
vate asthma for some persons.
Always wash all exposed skin
areas thoroughly with cold water
and a mild soap after an accident
in which the air bags were
deployed.
The SRS can function only when the ignition switch is in the ON
position. If the SRS air bag warn-
ing light " " does not illumi-
nate, or continuously remains on
after illuminating for about 6 sec-
onds when the ignition switch 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 vehicle immediately
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Before you replace a fuse or dis-connect a battery terminal, turn
the ignition switch to the LOCK
position and remove the ignition
key. Never remove or replace the
air bag related fuse(s) when the
ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion. Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS air bag warn-
ing light to illuminate.

WARNING
Do not put anything in front of the
passenger air bag off indicator.

Safety features of your vehicle
When an adult is seated in the front pas-
senger seat, if the PASSENGER AIR
BAG "OFF" indicator is on, turn the igni-
tion switch to the LOCK or OFF position
and ask the passenger to sit properly
(sitting upright with the seat back in an
upright position, centered on the seat
cushion with their seat belt on, legs com-
fortably extended and their feet on the
floor). Restart the engine and have the
person remain in that position. This will
allow the system to detect the person
and to enable the passenger air bag.
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG "OFF" indi-
cator is still on, ask the passenger to
move to the rear seat.
✽ ✽NOTICE
The PASSENGER AIR BAG "OFF"
indicator illuminates for about 4 sec-
onds after the ignition switch is turned
to the ON position or after the engine is
started. If the front passenger seat is
occupied, the occupant detection sensor
will then classify the front passenger
after several more seconds.

Proper position
WARNING
Do not allow an adult passenger to
ride in the front seat when the PAS-
SENGER AIR BAG "OFF" indicator
is illuminated because the air bag
will not deploy in the event of a
crash. If the PASSENGER AIR BAG
"OFF" indicator remains illuminat-
ed after the adult passenger reposi-
tions themselves properly and the
car is restarted, it is recommended
that passenger move to the rear
seat because the passenger's front
air bag will not deploy.
Front seat passengers must stay
properly seated to avoid serious
injury from a deploying air bag.
WARNING
Do not put a heavy load in the front
passenger seatback pocket or on the
front passenger seat. Do not hang
onto the front passenger seat. Do not
hang any items, such as a seatback
table, on the front passenger seat-
back. Do not place feet on the front
passenger seatback. Do not place
any items under the front passenger
seat. Any of these could interfere
with proper sensor operation.
WARNING
Even though your vehicle is
equipped with the occupant
detection system, never install a
child restraint system in the front
passenger's seat. A deploying air
bag can forcefully strike a child
resulting in serious injuries or
death. Any child age 12 and
under should ride in the rear seat.
Children too large for child
restraints should use the avail-
able lap/shoulder belts. No matter
what type of crash, children of all
ages are safer when restrained in
the rear seat.

Safety features of your vehicle
WARNING
In order for side and curtain airbags to provide the best protec-
tion, front seat occupants and
outboard rear occupants should
sit in an upright position with the
seat belts properly fastened.
Importantly, children should sit in
a proper child restraint system in
the rear seat.
When children are seated in the rear outboard seats, they must be
seated in the proper child
restraint system. Make sure to
put the child restraint system as
far away from the door side as
possible, and secure the child
restraint system in a locked posi-
tion.
Do not place any objects over the air bag. Also, do not attach any
objects around the area the air
bag inflates such as the door,
side door glass, front and rear pil-
lar, roof side rail.
Do not hang hard or breakable objects on the clothes hanger.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not allow the passengers tolean their heads or bodies onto
doors, put their arms on the
doors, stretch their arms out of
the window, or place objects
between the doors and passen-
gers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.
Never try to open or repair any components of the side curtain
air bag system. This should only
be done by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not open or repair the side curtain air bags.
Do not hang other objects except clothes. In an accident it may
cause vehicle damage or person-
al injury especially when air bag
is inflated.
Failure to follow the above instruc-
tions can result in injury or death to
the vehicle occupants in an acci-
dent.

KEYS
WARNING- Ignition key
Leaving children unattended in a
vehicle with the ignition key is dan-
gerous even if the key is not in the
ignition switch. Children copy
adults and they could place the key
in the ignition switch. The ignition
key would enable children to oper-
ate power windows or other con-
trols, or even make the vehicle
move, which could result in serious
bodily injury or even death. Never
leave the keys in your vehicle with
unsupervised children, when the
Engine is running.
WARNING
Use only HYUNDAI original parts
for the ignition key in your vehicle.
If an aftermarket key is used, the
ignition switch may not return to
ON after START. If this happens, the
starter will continue to operate
causing damage to the starter
motor and possible fire due to
excessive current in the wiring.

If the transmitter is in close proximity to
your cell phone or smart phone, the sig-
nal from the transmitter could be
blocked by normal operation of your
cell phone or smart phone. This is espe-
cially important when the phone is
active such as making call, receiving
calls, text messaging, and/or sending/
receiving emails.
Avoid placing the transmitter and your
cell phone or smart phone in the same
pants or jacket pocket and maintain
adequate distance between the two
devices. This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmfulinterference, and
2. This device must accept any interfer- ence received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Battery replacement

tery which will normally last for several
years. When replacement is necessary,
use the following procedure.
1. Insert a slim tool into the slot and gen-tly pry open the transmitter center
cover.
2. Replace the battery with a new battery (CR2032). When replacing the battery,
make sure the battery is positioned
correctly.
3. Install the battery in the reverse order of removal.
For replacement transmitters, see an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for transmit-
ter reprogramming.
