seat belts were activated. it illuminates whilst the vehicle is
being driven, please have an au-
thorized Hyundai dealer inspect
the pre-tensioner seat belt or SRS
airbag system as soon as pos-
sible.
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected with
the pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS
airbag warning light on the
instrument panel will blink for
approximately 6 seconds after the
ignition key has been turned to the
"ON" position and then it should
turn off.
o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, this warning
light will illuminate even if there is
no function of the SRS airbag sys-
tem.
If the SRS airbag warning light
does not illuminate when the igni-
tion key is turned to "ON", or if it
remains illuminated after blinking

o Pre-tensioners are designed to op- erate only one time. After activa-
tion, pre-tensioner seat belts must
be replaced. All seat belts, of any
type, should always be replaced
after they have been worn during a
collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assem-
bly mechanisms become hot dur-
ing activation. Do not touch the
pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies
for several minutes after they have
been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or re-
place the pre-tensioner seat belts
yourself. This must be done by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies.

!WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a
pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn cor- rectly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position.
NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat
belts will be activated in certain
frontal collisions. The pre-
tensioner seat belts can be acti-
vated with the airbags. The pre-
tensioners will be activated under
these conditions even if the seat
belts are not being worn at the
time of the collision.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts
are activated, a loud noise may be
heard and fine dust, which may
appear to be smoke, may be vis-
ible in the passenger compart-
ment. These are normal operating
conditions and are not hazard-
ous.

Driver's Airbag
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supple-
mental Restraint (Airbag) System. The
indications of the system's presence
are the letters "SRS AIR BAG" em-
bossed on the airbag pad cover in the
steering wheel and printed on the
passenger's side front panel pad above
the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags
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 protec- B240A01TB-EAT

tion than that offered by the seat belt
system alone, in case of a frontal im-
pact of sufficient severity.
NOTE:
Be sure to read information about
the SRS on the labels provided on
the back of the sun visor and in the
glove box.
WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed to work with, and be
supplemental to, the driver's and
the passenger's three point seat
belt systems and is not a substi-
tute for them. Therefore your seat
belts must be worn at all times
while the vehicle is in motion. In
addition, the airbags deploy only
in certain frontal impact condi-
tions severe enough to likely cause
significant injury to the vehicle
occupants.
o Do not attempt to service or repairthe 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, replace,
service or repair the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies may lead to
improper operation or inadvertent
activation and serious injury.
o Always wear the seat belts when driving or travelling in a motor
vehicle.

CAUTION:
When installing a container of liquid
air freshener inside a vehicle, do not
place it near the instrument cluster
nor on the instrument panel pad
surface. If there is any leakage from
the air freshener onto these areas
(instrument cluster, instrument panel
pad or air ventilator), it may damage
these parts. If the liquid from the air
freshener does leak onto these ar-
eas, wash them with water immedi-
ately.
WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dust
will be released throughout the
vehicle. These conditions are nor-
mal and are not hazardous. How-
ever, the fine dust generated dur-
ing airbag deployment may cause
skin irritation. Be sure to wash
your hands and face thoroughly
with lukewarm water and a mild
soap after an accident in which
the airbags were deployed. o The SRS can function only when
the ignition key is in the "ON"
position. If the SRS SRI does not
come on, or continuously remains
on, after flashing for about 6 sec-
onds when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, or
after the engine is started, or comes
on while driving, the SRS is not
working properly. If this occurs,
have your vehicle immediately
inspected by your Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turn
the ignition key to the "LOCK"
position or remove the ignition
key. Never remove or replace the
air bag related fuse(s) when the
ignition key is in the "ON" posi-
tion. Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS SRI to illumi-
nate.

Passenger's Airbag
!
CAUTION:
Do not install or place any accesso-
ries (drink holder, cassette holder,
sticker, etc) on the front passenger's
panel above the glove box in a ve-
hicle with passenger's side air bag.
Such objects may become danger-
ous projectiles and cause injury if
the passenger's side air bag inflates.
After complete inflation, the airbag im-
mediately starts deflating, enabling the
driver to maintain forward visibility.

Side airbag
sensor
WARNING:
o The side impact airbag is supple- mental to the driver's and the
passenger's three point seat belt
systems and is not a substitute for
them. Therefore your seat belts
must be worn at all times whilst
the vehicle is in motion. The
airbags deploy only in certain side
impact conditions severe enough
to cause significant injury to the
vehicle occupants. HTB072-D
o For best protection from the side
airbag system and to avoid being
injured is by the deploying side
impact airbag, both front seat oc-
cupants should sit in an upright
position with the seat belt prop-
erly fastened. The driver's hands
should be placed on the steering
wheel at the 9:00 and 3:00 o'clock
positions. The passenger's arms
and hands should be placed in
their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat covers.
o Use of seat covers could reduce or
prevent the effectiveness of the
system.
o Do not install any accessories on
the side or near the side impact
airbag.
o Do not use excessive force on the
side of the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag and
yourself.
B990B04Y-EAT
Side Impact Airbag
Your Hyundai is equipped with a side
impact airbag in each front seat. The
purpose of the airbag is to provide the
vehicle's driver and/or the front passen-
ger with additional protection than that
offered by the seat belt alone. The side
impact airbags are designed to deploy
only during certain side impact colli-
sions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and point of impact. The
air bags are not designed to deploy in all
side impact situations.

B240C02L WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger
seat position.
A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front seat.
The infant or child could be se-
verely injured by an airbag de-
ployment in case of an accident.
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rear-
ward facing restraint on a seat
protected by an airbag in front of
it!
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 adversely
affect SRS performance and lead
to 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 or
cleaners could adversely affect the
airbag covers and proper deploy-
ment of the system.
B240C02Y-GAT
SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and there are no parts you can safely
service by yourself. The entire SRS
system must be inspected by an au-
thorized Hyundai dealer in 10 years
after the date that the vehicle was
manufactured.
Any work on the SRS system, such as
removing, installing, repairing, or any
work on the steering wheel must be
performed by a qualified Hyundai tech-
nician. Improper handling of the SRS
system may result in serious personal
injury.
o Do not place any objects (an um-
brella, bag, etc.) between the front
door and the front seat. Such ob-
jects may become dangerous pro-
jectiles and cause injury if the
supplemental side impact air bag
inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deploy- ment of the side air impact bag
that may result in personal injury,
avoid impact to the side airbag
sensor when the ignition key is
on.

REMINDER INDICATOR
The SRS service reminder indicator
(SRI) comes on and flashes for about 6
seconds after the ignition key is turned
to the "ON" position or after the engine
is started, after which it will go out.
This light also comes on when the SRS
is not working properly.
If the SRI does not come on, or continu-
ously remains on after flashing for about
6 seconds when you turned the ignition
key to the "ON" position or started the
engine, or if it comes on while driving,
have the SRS inspected by an autho-
rized Hyundai Dealer. B260P02Y-EAT
ABS SERVICE
REMINDER INDICATOR
(SRI) (Not all models)
When the key is turned to the "ON"
position, the Anti-Lock Brake System
SRI will come on and then go off in a few
seconds. If the ABS SRI remains on,
comes on while driving, or does not
come on when the key is turned to the
"ON" position, this indicates that there
may be a problem with the ABS.
If this occurs, have your vehicle
checked by your Hyundai dealer as
soon as possible. The normal braking
system will still be operational, but
without the assistance of the anti-lock
brake system. SB210E1-E

!CAUTION:
If the oil pressure light illuminates
when the engine is running, an in-
sufficient oil pressure level for con-
tinued safe operation of the engine
exists. Continued operation of the
engine in this condition may result
in serious engine damage.
Under normal circumstances, the
light will illuminate when the igni-
tion is turned "on" and will be extin-
guished when the engine is started.
If the oil pressure warning light illu-
minates whilst the engine is run-
ning, stop the engine immediately
and check the engine oil level. If the
level is insufficient, add the required amount of oil as indicated by the
engine oil dipstick. If the light fails to
extinguish when the engine is re-
started, do not continue to operate
the vehicle.
If the oil pressure light illuminates
during normal operation and the
cause is not an insufficient oil level,
or the light fails to illuminate when
the ignition is turned "on", contact
the nearest Hyundai dealer before
further operating the vehicle.

The parking brake/brake fluid level warn-
ing light will be illuminated whenever
the ignition switch is turned to the "ON"
position irrespective of whether or not
the parking brake is applied and must
be extinguished when the engine starts
and the parking brake released.
If the warning light fails to extinguish or
illuminates at any other time, the ve-
hicle must be brought to rest in a safe
location and the level of brake fluid in
the reservoir checked. If the fluid level
is incorrect, fluid conforming to DOT 3
or DOT 4 specifications should be added.
If, after correcting the brake fluid level,
the warning light continues to be illumi-
nated, the advice of the nearest Hyundai
dealer must be sought before the ve-
hicle is driven again.
Your Hyundai is equipped with a diago-
nally split dual braking system which
will ensure that in the event of one of the
