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 heed the warnings to not strike, modify, inspect, re- place, service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt assembliesmay lead to improper operationor inadvertent activation and se-rious injury.

WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed to work with, and besupplemental to, the driver's andthe passenger's three point seatbelt systems and is not a substi-tute for them.

Rear impact
Side Impact Rollover
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear-im- pact or rollover crashes. In addi-tion, airbags will not deploy infrontal crashes below the deploy- ment threshold speed.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the
airbags only when an impact is sufficiently severe and when theimpact angle is less than 30° fromthe forward longitudinal axis ofthe vehicle and will not deploy in side, rear or rollover impacts. Ad- ditionally, the airbags will onlydeploy once. Thus, seat beltsmust be worn at all times.
o The driver should sit back as far as
possible while still maintaining control of the vehicle. If you aresitting too close to the airbag, itcan cause death or serious injurywhen it inflates.
o No objects should be placed over
or near the airbag modules onthe steering wheel, instrumentpanel, and the front passenger'spanel above the glove box,because any such object could cause harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to causethe airbags to deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must be replaced by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring, or other com- ponents of the SRS system. Do-ing so could result in injury, dueto accidental firing of the airbags or by rendering the SRS inopera- tive.
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passengerseat position. A child restraintsystem must never be placed in the front seat. The infant or childcould be severely injured or killed by an airbag deployment in caseof an accident.
o Do not allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat. If olderchildren (teenagers and older) must ride in the front seat, make sure they are always properlybelted and that the seat is movedback as far as possible.
o For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occu- pants including the driver should always wear their seat beltswhether or not an airbag is alsoprovided at their seating posi-tion to minimize the risk of se- vere injury or death in the event of a crash. Do not sit or leanunnecessarily close to the airbagwhile the vehicle is in motion.
o The SRS airbag system must de- ploy very rapidly to provide pro- tection in a crash. If an occupant is out of position because of notwearing a seat belt, the airbagmay forcefully contact the occu-pant causing serious or fatal in-juries.

The SRS consists of the following com- ponents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors allelements while the ignition is "ON" todetermine if a frontal or near-frontalimpact is severe enough to requireairbag deployment.

B240B01L
B240B02L
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blinkfor about 6 seconds after the ignitionkey is turned to the "ON" position orafter the engine is started, after which the SRI should go out. The airbag modules are located both in the center of the steering wheel and inthe front passenger's panel above theglove box. When the SRSCM detects aconsiderable impact to the front of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy the airbags.

B990B03Y-GAT Side Impact Airbag (If Installed) Your Hyundai is equipped with a side airbag in each front seat. The purposeof the airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that offeredby the seatbelt alone. The side impactairbags are designed to deploy onlyduring certain side impact collisions,depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. The air bags are not designed to deploy in allside impact situations.o The SRS can function only when
the ignition key is in the "ON" position. If the SRS SRI does notcome on, or continuously re- mains on, after flashing for about 6 seconds when the ignition keyis turned to the "ON" position, orafter the engine is started, orcomes on while driving, the SRSis not working properly. If this occurs, have your vehicle imme- diately inspected by yourHyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or dis- connect a battery terminal, turn the ignition key to the "LOCK" position or remove the ignitionkey. Never remove or replace theair bag related fuse(s) when theignition key is in the "ON" posi-tion. Failure to heed this warning will cause the SRS SRI to illumi- nate.

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 adverselyaffect SRS performance and leadto possible injury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad cov- ers, use only a soft, dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plain water. Solvents orcleaners could adversely affectthe airbag covers and properdeployment of the system.
o No objects should be placed over
or near the airbag modules onthe steering wheel, instrumentpanel, and the front passenger'spanel above the glove box, be-cause any such object could cause harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to causethe airbags to inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must be replaced by an authorizedHyundai dealer. o Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring, or other componentsof the SRS system. Doing so could result in injury, due to accidental firing of the airbags or by render-ing the SRS inoperative.
o If components of the airbag sys- tem must be discarded, or if thevehicle must be scrapped, cer- tain safety precautions must be observed. Your Hyundai dealerknows these precautions and cangive you the necessary informa-tion. Failure to follow these pre- cautions and procedures could increase the risk of personal in-jury.
o If you sell your vehicle, be sure to
inform the new owner of theseimportant points and make cer- tain that this manual is trans- ferred to the new owner.
