SRS components and func-
tions
The SRS consists of the following
components:
1. Driver's front air bag module
2. Passenger's front air bag module
3. Side impact air bag modules
4. Curtain air bag modules
5. Retractor pre-tensioner assem-
blies
6. Air bag warning light
7. SRS control module (SRSCM)
8. Front impact sensors
9. Side impact sensorsThe SRSCM continuously monitors
all SRS components whilst the igni-
tion switch is ON to determine if a
crash impact is severe enough to
require air bag deployment or pre-
tensioner seat belt deployment.
The SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument cluster will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position,
after which the air bag warning light
should go out.

tions occur, this indicates a
malfunction of the SRS. We rec-
ommend that the system be
inspected by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
• The light does not turn on
briefly when you turn the igni-
tion ON.
• The light stays on after illumi-
nating for approximately 6
seconds.

Safety features of your vehicle
Driver's and passenger's front air
bag (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag)
System and lap/shoulder belts at
both the driver and passenger seat-
ing positions.The indications of the system's pres-
ence are the letters "AIR BAG"
engraved on the air bag pad cover in
the steering wheel and the passen-
ger's side front panel pad above the
glove box.
The SRS consists of air bags
installed under the pad covers in the
centre of the steering wheel and the
passenger's side front panel above
the glove box.
The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the vehicle's driver and/or the front
passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt sys-
tem alone in case of a frontal impact
of sufficient severity.

• The SRS can function only
when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
• Before you replace a fuse or
disconnect 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 position.
Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS air bag
warning light to illuminate.

Safety features of your vehicle
(Continued)
• Sitting improperly or out of
position can result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. All
occupants should sit upright
with the seat back in an
upright position, centred on
the seat cushion with their
seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and their feet on the
floor until the vehicle is
parked and the ignition key is
removed.
• The SRS air bag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If an
occupant is out of position
due to not wearing a seat belt,
the air bag may forcefully con-
tact the occupant causing
serious or fatal injuries.(Continued)
• Children age 12 and under
must always be properly
restrained in the rear seat.
Never allow children to travel
in the front passenger seat. If
a child over 12 must be seated
in the front seat, he or she
must be properly restrained
and the seat should be moved
as far back as possible.
• For maximum safety protec-
tion in all types of crashes, all
occupants including the driv-
er should always wear their
seat belts whether or not an
air bag is also provided at
their seating position to min-
imise the risk of severe injury
or death in the event of a
crash. Do not sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the air
bag whilst the vehicle is in
motion.
(Continued)(Continued)
• Air bags can only be used
once – we recommend that
the system be replaced by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
• The SRS is designed to deploy
the front air bags only when an
impact is sufficiently severe
and when the impact angle is
less than 30° from the forward
longitudinal axis of the vehi-
cle. Additionally, the air bags
will only deploy once. Seat
belts must be worn at all times.
• Front air bags are not intend-
ed to deploy in side-impacts,
rear-impacts or rollover
crashes. In addition, front air
bags will not deploy in frontal
crashes below the deploy-
ment threshold.
• A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front
seat. The infant or child could
be severely injured or killed
by an air bag deployment in
case of an accident.

Curtain air bag (if equipped)
The actual air bags in the vehicle may differ
from the illustration.
Curtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
(Continued)
• If the seat or seat cover is
damaged, we recommend that
the system be serviced by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
Inform the dealer that your
vehicle is equipped with side
impact air bags.

• Do not use any accessory
seat covers.
• Use of seat covers could
reduce or prevent the effec-
tiveness of the system.
• Do not install any accessories
on the side or near the side
impact air bag.
• Do not place any objects over
the air bag or between the air
bag and yourself.
• Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag, etc.) between
the front door and the front
seat. Such objects may
become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if the
supplemental side impact air
bag inflates.
• To prevent unexpected
deployment of the side impact
air bag that may result in per-
sonal injury, avoid impact to
the side impact sensor when
the ignition switch is on.

To unfold the key, press the release
button then the key will unfold auto-
matically.
To fold the key, fold the key manually
whilst pressing the release button.Remote key precautions
The remote key will not work if any of
the following occur:
• The key is in the ignition switch.
• You exceed the operating distance
limit (about 30 m [90 feet]).
• The remote key battery is weak.
• Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
• The weather is extremely cold.
• The remote key is close to a radio
transmitter such as a radio station
or an airport which can interfere
with normal operation of the
remote key.
When the remote key does not work
correctly, open and close the door
with the mechanical key. If you have
a problem with the remote key, it is
recommanded that you contact an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)(Continued)
If the remote key is in close proximi-
ty to your mobile phone, the signal
could be blocked by your mobile
phones normal operational signals.
This is especially important when the
phone is active such as making and
receiving calls, text messaging,
and/or sending/receiving emails.
Avoid placing the remote key and
your mobile phone in the same loca-
tions and always try to maintain an
adequate distance between the two
devices.
CAUTION
Do not fold the key without
pressing the release button.
This may damage the key.

If you suspect your smart key might
have sustained some damage, or
you feel your smart key is not work-
ing correctly, it is recommanded that
you contact an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.
✽NOTICE
An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to
the environment and human
health. Dispose the battery
according to your local
law(s) and regulation.
Immobiliser System
The immobiliser system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly
coded key (or other device) is used,
the engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the immobiliser sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognise
the coding of the key.
Place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position, then place the
ignition switch to the ON position
again.
The system may not recognise your
key’s coding if another immobiliser
key or other metal object (i.e., key
chain) is near the key. The engine
may not start because the metal may
interrupt the transponder signal from
transmitting normally.
If the system repeatedly does not
recognise the coding of the key, it is
recommended that you contact your
HYUNDAI dealer.Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it. Electrical
problems could result that may make
your vehicle inoperable.
WARNING
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle.
CAUTION
The transponder in your key is
an important part of the immo-
biliser system. It is designed to
give years of trouble-free serv-
ice, however you should avoid
exposure to moisture, static
electricity and rough handling.
Immobiliser system malfunction
could occur.
