Driver's Airbag
B240A01GK-GAT SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (SRS)(Not all models) Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of thesystem's presence are the letters "SRS AIRBAG" embossed on the ornament in the steeringwheel and the passenger's side front panel padabove the glove box. The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in the center of the steeringwheel and the passenger's side front panel abovethe glove box. The purpose of the SRS is toprovide the vehicle's driver and/or the front pas-senger with additional protection than that of-fered by the seat belt system alone, in case of afrontal impact of sufficient severity.
NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front passenger's
pre-tensioner seat belts will be activatedin certain frontal collisions. The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated aloneor, where the frontal collision is severeenough, together with the airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are ac- tivated, a loud noise may be heard and finedust, which may appear to be smoke, maybe visible in the passenger compartment.These are normal operating conditionsand are not hazardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust may cause skin irritation and should not bebreathed for prolonged periods. Wash yourhands and face thoroughly after an acci-dent in which the pre-tensioner seat beltswere activated.
CAUTION:
o The control module that activates the SRS airbag controls the pre-tensioner seat beltalso.
o If there is some function in the pre- tensioner seat belt circuit, the warninglight will illuminate even if there is nomalfunction in the SRS airbag system. Ifthe SRS airbag warning light does notilluminate or illuminates continuouslywhen the ignition key is turned to "ON", orif it remains illuminated after blinking forapproximately 6 seconds, or if it illumi-nates while the vehicle is being driven, please have an authorized Hyundai dealerinspect the pre-tensioner seat belts and orSRS airbag system as soon as possible.
WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate only one time. After activation, pre-tensioner seat belts must be replaced. Allseat belts, of any type, should always bereplaced after they have been worn duringa collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly mechanisms become hot during activa-tion. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seatbelt assemblies for several minutes afterthey have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or replace the pre-tensioner seat belts yourself. Thismust be done by an authorized Hyundaidealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or repair the pre- tensioner seat belt system in any manner.
o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies, and failure to heedthe warnings to not strike, modify, in-spect, replace, service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies may leadto improper operation or inadvertent acti-vation and serious injury.
o Always wear seat belts when driving or riding in a motor vehicle.

o The driver should sit back as far as pos- sible while still maintaining control of the vehicle. If you are sitting too close to theairbag, it can cause death or serious injurywhen it inflates.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steering wheel,instrument panel, and the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box,because any such object could causeharm if the vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the airbags to inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS wiring, or other components of the SRSsystem. Doing so could result in injury,due to accidental firing of the airbags orby rendering the SRS inoperative.

Rear impact
Side Impact Rollover
NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS onthe labels provided on the backside of thesun visor and in the glove box. WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed
to work with, and be supplemental to, thedriver's and the passenger's three pointseat belt systems and is not a substitutefor them. Therefore your seat belts mustbe worn at all times while the vehicle is inmotion. In addition, the airbags deployonly in certain frontal impact conditionssevere enough to cause significant injuryto the vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags only when an impact is sufficiently severeand when the impact angle is less than 30°from the forward longitudinal axis of thevehicle and will not deploy in side, rear orrollover impacts. Additionally, the airbagswill only deploy once. Thus, seat beltsmust be worn at all times.
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in light collisions in which protection canbe provided by the seat belt alone.
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear-impact or rollovercrashes. In addition, airbags will not de-ploy in frontal crashes below the deploy-ment threshold speed. o Do not install a child restraint system in the
front passenger seat position. A childrestraint system must never be placed inthe front seat. The infant or child could beseverely injured or killed by an airbagdeployment in case of an accident.
o Do not allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. If older children (teenagesand older) must ride in the front seat,make sure they are always properly beltedand that the seat is moved back as far aspossible.
o For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occupants including thedriver should always wear their seat beltswhether or not an airbag is also providedat their seating position to minimize therisk of severe injury or death in the eventof a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarilyclose to the airbag while the vehicle is inmotion.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy very rapidly to provide protection in a crash. Ifan occupant is out of position because ofnot wearing a seat belt, the airbag mayforcefully contact the occupant causingserious or fatal injuries.

OIL PRESSURE WARNING LAMP
CAUTION: If the oil pressure lamp illuminates when the engine is running, an insufficient oil pressurelevel for continued safe operation of the en-gine exists. Continued operation of the en-gine in this condition may result in seriousengine damage. Under normal circumstances, the lamp will illu- minate when the ignition is turned "on" and will beextinguished when the engine is started.If the oil pressure warning lamp illuminates whilstthe engine is running, stop the engine immedi-ately and check the engine oil level. If the level isinsufficient, add the required amount of oil asindicated by the engine oil dipstick. If the lampfails to extinguish when the engine is restarted,do not continue to operate the vehicle.If the oil pressure lamp illuminates during normaloperation and the cause is not an insufficient oillevel, or the lamp fails to illuminate when theignition is turned "on", contact the nearest Hyundaidealer before further operating the vehicle.
