WARNING:
o Move your seat as far back as prac-
tical from the front airbags, while still
maintaining control of the vehicle.
o Never sit or lean unnecessarily close
to the front or side airbags.
o Never lean against the door or center
console – always sit in an upright
position.
o Do not allow an adult passenger to
ride in the front seat when the “Pas-
senger Airbag OFF” indicator is illu-
minated, because the airbag will not
deploy in the event of a moderate or
severe frontal crash.
o Never place objects over or near any
airbag module (front or side impact
airbags), because these objects can
injure passengers in a crash.
o Never place covers, blankets or after-
market seat warmers on the passen-
ger seat as these may interfere with
the occupant classification system.
o Do not tamper or disconnect SRS
wiring or other components. Injuries
could result from inadvertent deploy-
ment or failure of the airbag to deploy
in a crash.
!
WARNING:
Always use seat belts and child restraints
– every trip, every time, everyone!
Airbags inflate with considerable force
and in the blink of an eye. Seat belts help
keep occupants in proper position to
obtain maximum benefit from the airbag.
Even with advanced airbags, improp-
erly and unbelted occupants can be se-
verely injured when the airbag inflates.
Always follow the precautions about seat
belts, airbags and occupant safety con-
tained in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious or fatal
injuries and receive the maximum safety
benefit from your restraint system:
o Never place a child in any child or
booster seat in the front seat (see
child restraints 1-34).
o ABC – Always Buckle Children in the
back seat. It is the safest place for
children of any age to ride.
o Front and side impact airbags can
injure occupants improperly posi-
tioned in the front seats.o If the SRS airbag warning light (see pg
1-70) remains illuminated while the
vehicle is being driven, have an autho-
rized Hyundai dealer inspect the
airbag system as soon as possible.
o Airbags can only be used once – have
an authorized Hyundai dealer replace
the airbag immediately after deploy-
ment.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the
front airbags only when an impact is
sufficiently severe and when the im-
pact angle is within a range as mea-
sured from the forward longitudinal
axis of the vehicle. The front airbags
will not deploy in side, rear or rollover
impacts. Additionally, the airbags will
only deploy once. Seat belts must be
worn at all times.

WARNING:
o Move your seat as far back as prac-
tical from the front airbags, while still
maintaining control of the vehicle. You
and your passengers should never
sit or lean unnecessarily close to the
airbags. Improperly positioned driv-
ers and passengers can be severely
injured by inflating airbags.
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. Deployed airbags WILL NOT
inflate again and will provide no pro-
tection in subsequent collisions.
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 deployment
of the airbags or by rendering the SRS
inoperative.
o Even though your vehicle is equipped
with the occupant classification sys-
tem, 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 deploy-
ment in case of an accident.
o Children younger than 13 years must
always be properly restrained in the
rear seat. Never allow children to ride
in the front passenger seat. If a child
over 13 must be seated in the front
seat, he or she must be properly belted
and the seat should be moved as far
back as possible.
o For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, all occupants in-
cluding the driver should always wear
their seat belts whether or not an
airbag is also provided at their seat-
ing position to minimize the risk of
severe injury or death in the event of
a crash. Do not sit or lean unneces-
sarily close to the airbag while the
vehicle is in motion.

o Front airbags are not intended to de-
ploy in side-impact, rear-impact or
rollover crashes. In addition, front
airbags will not deploy in frontal
crashes below the deployment thresh-
old.

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 child could be severely injured by
an airbag deployment in case of an
accident.
o Modification to SRS components or
wiring, including the addition of any
kind of badges to the pad covers or
modifications to the body structure,
can adversely affect SRS perfor-
mance and lead to possible injury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers,
use only a soft, dry cloth or one which
has been moistened with plain water.
Solvents 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.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked
carpeting or water on flooring, you
shouldn't try to start the engine; have
the car towed to an authorized Hyundai
dealer.

WARNING:
B240C02NF-AATSRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-free and
so there are no parts you can safely service
by yourself. If the SRS "AIRBAG" warning
light does not illuminate, or continuously
remains on, have your vehicle immedi-
ately inspected by your Hyundai dealer.
Any work on the SRS system, such as
removing, installing, repairing, or any work
on the steering wheel must be performed
by a qualified Hyundai technician. Improper
handling of the SRS system may result in
serious personal injury.

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 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.
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 oc-
cupant 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
objects 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 up-
right, 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
attached 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. Modifi-
cation of the front seats could interfere
with the operation of the supplemental
restraint system sensing components
or side impact airbags.
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 har-
nesses.
oNever hold an infant or child on your
lap. The infant or child could be seri-
ously 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 cause occupants to be shifted too
close to a deploying airbag, strike the
interior structure or be thrown from
the vehicle resulting in serious injury
or death.
o Always sit upright with the seatback
in an upright position, centered on the
seat cushion with your seat belt on,
legs comfortably extended 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.

C160D01A-AATCheck Battery and CablesWinter puts additional burdens on the
battery system. Visually inspect the battery
and cables as described in Section 6. The
level of charge in your battery can be
checked by your Hyundai dealer or a ser-
vice station.C160C01A-AATUse High Quality Ethylene Glycol
CoolantYour Hyundai is delivered with high qual-
ity ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling
system. It is the only type of coolant that
should be used because it helps prevent
corrosion in the cooling system, lubricates
the water pump and prevents freezing. Be
sure to replace or replenish your coolant in
accordance with the maintenance sched-
ule in Section 5. Before winter, have your
coolant tested to assure that its freezing
point is sufficient for the temperatures an-
ticipated during the winter.
C160B01A-AATSnowy or Icy ConditionsTo drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may
be necessary to use snow tires or to install
tire chains on your tires. If snow tires are
needed, it is necessary to select tires
equivalent in size and type of the original
equipment tires. Failure to do so may ad-
versely affect the safety and handling of
your car. Furthermore, speeding, rapid
acceleration, sudden brake applications,
and sharp turns are potentially very haz-
ardous practices.
During deceleration, use engine braking
to the fullest extent. Sudden brake applica-
tions on snowy or icy roads may cause
skids to occur. You need to keep sufficient
distance between the vehicle in operation
in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the
brake gently. It should be noted that install-
ing tire chains on the tire will provide a
greater driving force, but will not prevent
side skids.NOTE:Tire chains are not legal in all states.
Check state laws before fitting tire
chains.
C160F02A-AATCheck Spark Plugs and Ignition
SystemInspect your spark plugs and replace them
if necessary. Also check all ignition wiring
and components to be sure they are not
cracked, worn or damaged in any way.C160E01A-AATChange to "Winter Weight" Oil if
NecessaryIn some climates it is recommended that a
lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used
during cold weather. See Section 9 for
recommendations. If you aren't sure what
weight oil you should use, consult your
Hyundai dealer.

ANY QUESTIONS?
E040D01A-AATCleaning the Seat BeltsTo clean the seat belts, use a cloth or
sponge with mild soap or detergent and
warm water. Do not use strong detergents,
dye, bleach or abrasive materials on the
seat belts as this may weaken the fabric.
While cleaning the belts, inspect them for
excessive wear, cuts, fraying or other signs
of damage and replace them if necessary.E040C01A-AATCleaning the CarpetsUse a foam-type carpet cleaner. Cleaners
of this type are available in aerosol cans in
liquid form or powder. Read the instruc-
tions and follow them exactly. Using a
vacuum cleaner with the appropriate at-
tachment, remove as much dirt from the
carpets as possible. Apply the foam follow-
ing the manufacturer's directions, then rub
in overlapping circles. Do not add water.
These cleaners work best when the carpet
is kept as dry as possible.
E050A01A-AATIf you have any questions about the care of
your car, consult your Hyundai dealer.
E040E01A-AATCleaning the WindowsYou may use any household window
cleaner on the windows. However, when
cleaning the inside of the rear window be
careful not to damage the rear window
defroster wiring.
