Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags and the driver’s knee air
bag are designed to inflate in a frontal
collision depending on the the severity of
impact of the front collision.
Side and curtain air bags
Side and curtain air bags are designed to
inflate when an impact is detected by
side collision sensors depending on the
severity of impact resulting from a side
impact collision.Although the driver’s and front passen-
ger’s air bags are designed to inflate only
in frontal collisions, they also may inflate
in other types of collisions if the front
impact sensors detect a sufficient
impact. Side and curtain air bags are
designed to inflate only in side impact
collisions or rollover situations, but they
may inflate in other collisions if the side
impact sensors detect a sufficient
impact.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by
bumps or objects on unimproved roads,
the air bags may deploy. Drive carefully
on unimproved roads or on surfaces not
designed for vehicle traffic to prevent
unintended air bag deployment.

Air bag non-inflation conditions
In certain low-speed collisions the air
bags may not deploy. The air bags are
designed not to deploy in such cases
because they may not provide benefits
beyond the protection of the seat belts.Front air bags are not designed to inflate
in rear collisions, because occupants are
moved backward by the force of the
impact. In this case, inflated air bags
would not provide any additional benefit.
Front air bags may not inflate in side
impact collisions, because occupants
move in the direction of the collision, and
thus in side impacts, front air bag deploy-
ment would not provide additional occu-
pant protection.
However, side and curtain air bags may
inflate depending on the severity of
impact.

In an angled collision, the force of impact
may direct the occupants in a direction
where the air bags would not be able to
provide any additional benefit, and thus
the sensors may not deploy any air bags.Just before impact, drivers often brake
heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the
front portion of the vehicle causing it to
"ride" under a vehicle with a higher
ground clearance. Air bags may not
inflate in this "under-ride" situation
because deceleration forces that are
detected by sensors may be significantly
reduced by such "underride" collisions.Front air bags may not inflate in rollover
accidents because air bag deployment
could not provide protection to the occu-
pants.
However, side and curtain air bags may
inflate when the vehicle is rolled over by
a side impact collision.

Safety system of your vehicle
Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle col-
lides with objects such as utility poles or
trees, where the point of impact is con-
centrated and the collision energy is
absorbed by the vehicle structure.
SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and there are no parts you can safely
service by yourself. If the SRS air bag
warning light does not illuminate when
the ignition switch is in the ON position,
or continuously remains on, have your
vehicle immediately inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Any work on the SRS system, such as
removing, installing, repairing, or any
work on the steering wheel, the front
passenger's panel, front seats and roof
rails must be performed by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Improper handling of
the SRS system may result in serious
personal injury.To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death, take the following precau-
tions:
Do not attempt to modify or dis-
connect the SRS components or
wiring, including the addition of
any kind of badges to the pad
covers or modifications to the
body structure.
Do not place objects over or near
the air bag modules on the steer-
ing wheel, instrument panel, or
the front passenger’s panel
above the glove box.
Clean the air bag pad covers with
a soft cloth moistened with plain
water. Solvents or cleaners could
adversely affect the air bag cov-
ers and proper deployment of the
system.
Always have inflated air bags
replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Additional Safety Precautions
Passengers 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
be ejected from the vehicle.
Do not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiming to improve occu-
pant 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
Do not modify the front seats.
Modification of the front seats could inter-
fere with the operation of the supplemen-
tal restraint system sensing components
or side air bags.
Do not place items under the front
seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the operation of
the supplemental restraint system sens-
ing components and wiring harnesses.
Do not cause impact to the doors.
Impact to the doors when the Engine
Start/Stop button is in the ON position
may cause the air bags to inflate. Modifications to accommodate dis-
abilities.
If you require modification to
your vehicle to accommodate a disability,
contact the HYUNDAI Customer
Connect Center at 1-877-378-8727.
Adding equipment to or modify- ing your air bag 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 air bag system.
(Continued)
If components of the air bag sys-
tem must be discarded, or if the
vehicle must be scrapped, certain
safety precautions must be
observed. Consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for the neces-
sary information. Failure to follow
these precautions could increase
the risk of personal injury.

Air Bag Warning Labels
OAD035052N/OAD035053N/OAD035054
Air bag warning labels, required by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), are attached to alert the driv-
er and passengers of potential risks of the air bag system. Be sure to read all of the information about the air bags that are i nstalled
on your vehicle in this Owners Manual.

Unattended children could place
the key in the ignition switch and
may operate power windows or
other controls, or even make the
vehicle move, which could result in
serious injury or death.
