What to expect after an air bag inflates After a frontal or side impact air bag
inflates, it will deflate very quickly. Air bag
inflation will not prevent the driver from see-
ing out of the windshield or being able to
steer. Curtain air bags may remain partially
inflated for some time after they deploy.Noise and smoke from inflating airbag
When the air bags inflate, they make a
loud noise and they leave smoke and
powder in the air inside of the vehicle.
This is normal and is a result of the igni-
tion of the air bag inflator. After the air
bag inflates, you may feel substantial dis-
comfort in breathing because of the con-
tact of your chest with both the seat belt
and the air bag, as well as from breathing
the smoke and powder. The powder may
aggravate asthma for some people. If you
experience breathing problems after an
air bag deployment, seek medical atten-
tion immediately.
Though the smoke and powder are non-
toxic, they may cause irritation to the
skin, eyes, nose, throat, etc. If this is the
case, wash and rinse with cold waterimmediately and seek medical attentionif the symptoms persist.
Passenger’s front air bag
ON/OFF switch (if equipped)
The purpose of the switch is to disable
the passenger’s front air bag in order to
transport occupants who are at
increased risk for air bag-related injury
due to age, size, or medical condition.
WARNING
After an air bag inflates, take the
following precautions:
Open your windows and doors as soon as possible after impact to
reduce prolonged exposure to
the smoke and powder released
by the inflating air bag.
Do not touch the air bag storage area’s internal components
immediately after an air bag has
inflated. The parts that come into
contact with an inflating air bag
may be very hot.
thoroughly with lukewarm waterand mild soap.
We recommend that an author- ized HYUNDAI dealer replace the
air bag immediately after deploy-
ment. Air bags are designed to be
used only once.
