•Extreme hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child restraint
on a seat protected by an air
bag in front of it!
•NEVER use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat pro-
tected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG
in front of it, DEATH or SERI-
OUS INJURY to the CHILD can
occur.
•Never put a child restraint in
the front passenger’s seat. If
the front passenger air bag
inflates, it would cause seri-
ous or fatal injuries.
WARNING
If the passenger’s front air bag
ON/OFF switch malfunctions,
the following conditions may
occur:
•The air bag warning light ( )
on the instrument panel will
illuminate.
•The passenger air bag OFF
indicator ( ) will not illumi-
nate and the ON indicator ( )
will come on and go off after
approximately 60 seconds.
The passenger’s front air bag
will inflate in a frontal impact
even though the passenger’s
front air bag ON/OFF switch is
set to the OFF position.
•We recommend that an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer inspect
the passenger’s front air bag
ON/OFF switch and the SRS air
bag system as soon as possi-
ble.

To reduce the risk of an air bag
deploying unexpectedly and
causing serious injury or death:
•Do not hit or allow any objects
to impact the locations where
air bags or sensors are
installed.
•Do not perform maintenance
on or around the air bag sen-
sors. If the location or angle of
the sensors is altered, the air
bags may deploy when they
should not or may not deploy
when they should.
•Do not install bumper guards
or replace the bumper with a
non-genuine part. This may
adversely affect the collision
and air bag deployment per-
formance.
(Continued)
WARNING
Why didn’t my air bag go off in
a collision? (Air bags are not
designed to inflate in every
collision.)
There are certain types of accidents
in which the air bag would not be
expected to provide additional protec-
tion. These include rear impacts, sec-
ond or third collisions in multiple
impact accidents, as well as low
speed impacts. Damage to the vehicle
indicates a collision energy absorp-
tion, and is not an indicator of whether
or not an air bag should have inflated.
Air bag collision sensors
(if equipped) (Continued)
•Press the Engine Start/Stop
button to the OFF or ACC
position, when the vehicle is
being towed to prevent inad-
vertent air bag deployment.
•We recommend that all air bag
repairs are conducted by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Safety system of your vehicle
✽NOTICE- without rollover
sensor
Air bags do not inflate in rollover
accidents because vehicle cannot
detect rollover accident. However,
side impact and/or curtain air bags
may inflate when the vehicle is rolled
over following(after) side impact col-
lision.
Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle
collides with objects such as utility
poles or trees, where the point of
impact is concentrated and the colli-
sion energy is absorbed by the vehi-
cle 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 illumi-
nate when the Engine Start/Stop but-
ton is in the ON position, or continu-
ously remains on, we recommend
that the system be immediately
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
We recommend any work on the
SRS system, such as removing,
installing, repairing, or any work on
the steering wheel, the front passen-
ger's panel, front seats and roof rails
be performed by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Improper handling
of the SRS system may result in seri-
ous personal injury.

The active hood lift system can
reduce a risk of injury to pedestrians
by raising the hood in certain accident
situations. The active hood lift system
has the additional deformation space
under the hood, which is made avail-
able for the subsequent head impact.
When the active hood lift system is
activated ;
• The Engine Start/Stop button is in
the ON position and the vehicle
speed is between about 25 km/h
(15.5 MPH) and 50 km/h (31 MPH).
• The active hood lift system is
designed to work in a frontal colli-
sion depending on the intensity,
speed or angles of impact of the
front collision.
✽NOTICE - Active hood lift
system repair
• If the active hood lift system has
been activated, do not place the
hood back by yourself. We recom-
mend that the system be repaired by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• If you change or repair the front
bumper, we recommend that the
system be checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
Active hood lift system activa-
tion situation
• If the vehicle falls in the gutter or
from a high place.
• The active hood lift system may be
activated when an impact is detect-
ed by frontal collision without
pedestrians. If an animal, trash can
or other things are struck by your
vehicle.• In certain high-speed frontal or
angled collisions, with car or barri-
er, the active hood lift system may
work.

Active hood lift system mal-
function
If there is a problem with the system
a message will appear in the cluster
LCD display.
This warning message means that
the protection of pedestrians by the
active hood lift system does not
works correctly.
If the warning message displayed,
we recommend that the system be
checked as soon as possible by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
✽NOTICE
• Do not remove or change the com-
ponents and the wiring of the
active hood system.
• Do not change the front bumper
or the body structure.
• Do not install or assemble any
aftermarket accessory on the front
bumper or cover.
• When replacing tires, make sure
they are the same size as your
original tires. If you drive with dif-
ferent tire or wheel sizes, the
active hood lift system may not
work normally.
The above situations may cause a
malfunction of the active hood lift
system.
