•Front and side impact air bags
can injure occupants improperly
positioned in the front seats.
•Move your seat as far back as
practical from the front air bags,
while still maintaining control of
the vehicle.
•You and your passengers
should never sit or lean unnec
essarily close to the air bags.
Improperly positioned drivers
and passengers can be severe
ly injured by inflating air bags.
•Never lean against the door or
center console – always sit in an
upright position.
(Continued)
Always use seat belts and child
restraints – every trip, every time,
everyone! Air bags inflate with
considerable force and in the blink
of an eye. Seat belts help keep
occupants in proper position to
obtain maximum benefit from the
air bag. Even with air bags,
improperly and unbelted occu
pants can be severely injured
when the air bag inflates. Always
follow the precautions about seat
belts, air bags and occupant safe
t

y contained in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious
or fatal injuries and receive the
maximum safety benefit from your
restraint system:
•Never place a child in any child
or booster seat in the front seat.
•ABC – Always Buckle Children in
the back seat. It is the safest
place for children of any age to
ride. (Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
•No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular phone holder, cup
holder, perfume or stickers)
should be placed over or near
the air bag modules on the
steering wheel, instrument
panel, windshield glass, and the
front passenger's panel above
the glove box. Such objects
could cause harm if the vehicle
is in a crash severe enough to
cause the air bags to deploy.
•Do not attach any objects on the
front windshield and inside mir
r
or.
•Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring or other components
of the SRS system. Doing so
could result in injury, due to acci
dental deployment of the air
bags or by rendering the SRS
inoperative.
•If the SRS air bag warning light
remains illuminated while the
vehicle is being driven, we rec
ommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

•Children age 12 and under must
always be properly restrained in
the rear seat. Never allow chil
dren to ride in the front passen
ger seat. If a child over 12 must
be seated in the front seat, he or
she must be properly belted and
the seat should be moved as far
back as possible.
•For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, all occu
pants including the driver should
always wear their seat belts
w

hether or not an air bag is also
provided at their seating position
to minimize the risk of severe
injury or death in the event of a
crash. Do not sit or lean unnec
essarily close to the air bag while
the vehicle is in motion.

•Air bags can only be used once
– we recommend that the sys
tem be replaced by an author
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
•The SRS is designed to deploy
the front air bags only when an
impact is sufficiently severe and
when the impact angle is less
than 30° from the forward longi
tudinal axis of the vehicle.
Additionally, the air bags will only
deploy once. Seat belts must be
worn at all times.
•Front air bags are not intended to
d
eploy in sideimpact, rear
impact or rollover crashes. In
addition, front air bags will not
deploy in frontal crashes below
the deployment threshold.
•A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front
seat. The infant or child could be
severely injured or killed by an
air bag deployment in case of an
accident.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Sitting improperly or out of posi
tion can result in serious or fatal
injury in a crash. All occupants
should sit upright with the seat
back in an upright position, cen
tered on the seat cushion with
their seat belt on, legs comfort
ably extended and their feet on
the floor until the vehicle is
parked and the ignition key is
removed.
•The SRS air bag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If an occu
p

ant is out of position because
of not wearing a seat belt, the air
bag may forcefully contact the
occupant causing serious or
fatal injuries.

They are designed to help protect
the heads of the front seat occupants
and the rear outboard seat occu
pants in certain side impact colli
sions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only during cer tain side
impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed and
impact. The curtain air bags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact
situations, collisions from the front or
rear of the vehicle or in most rollover
situations.
•In order for side impact and cur
tain air bags to provide the best
protection, both front seat occu
pants and both outboard rear
occupants should sit in an upright
position with the seat belts prop
erly fastened.
Importantly, children should sit in
a proper child restraint system in
the rear seat.
(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
•When children are seated in the
rear outboard seats, they must
be seated in the proper child
restraint system. Make sure to
put the child restraint system as
far away from the door side as
possible, and secure the child
restraint system in a locked posi
tion.
•Do not place any objects over the
air bag. Also, do not attach any
objects around the area the air
bag inflates such as the door,
side door glass, front and rear pil
l

ar, roof side rail.
•Do not hang other objects except
clothes, especially hard or break
able objects. In an accident, it
may cause vehicle damage or
personal injury.

•Do not allow the passengers to
lean their heads or bodies onto
doors, put their arms on the
doors, stretch their arms out of
the window, or place objects
between the doors and passen
gers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side and\for
curtain air bags.
•Do not open or repair the side
curtain air bags.
•Never try to open or repair any
components of the side curtain
air bag system. We recommend
that the syst

em be serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Failure to follow the above men
tioned instructions can result in
injury or death to the vehicle occu
pants in an accident.

Additional safety precautions
• Never let passengers ride in the
cargo area or on top of a folded
down back seat.
All occupants
should sit upright, fully back in their
seats with their seat belts on and
their feet on the floor.
• Passengers should not move out
of or change seats while the vehi
cle is moving.
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 out of the vehicle.
• Each seat belt is designed to
restrain one occupant.
If more than
one person uses the same seat
belt, they could be seriously injured
or killed in a collision.
• Do not use any accessories on
seat belts.
Devices claiming to
improve occupant comfort or repo
sition the seat belt can reduce the
protection provided by the seat belt
and increase the chance of serious
injury in a crash. •
Passengers should not place hard
or sharp objects between them
selves and the air bags.
Carrying
hard or sharp objects on your lap
or in your mouth can result in
injuries if an air bag inflates.
• Keep occupants away from the air
bag
covers.
All
occupants should
sit upright, fully back in their seats
with their seat belts on and their
feet on the floor. If occupants are
too close to the air bag covers,
they could be injured if the air bags
inflate.
• Do not attach or place objects on
or near the air bag covers.
Any
object attached to or placed on the
front or side impact air bag covers
could interfere with the proper
operation of the air bags.
• Do not modify the front seats.
Modification of the front seats
could interfere with the operation of
the supplemental restraint system
sensing components or side impact 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 sensing compo
nents and wiring harnesses.
• Never hold an infant or child on your
lap.
The infant or child could be seri
ously injured or killed in the event of
a crash. All infants and children
should be properly restrained in
appropriate child safety seats or
seat belts in the rear seat.
•Sitting improperly or out of posi
tion can cause occupants to be
shifted too close to a deploying
air bag, strike the interior struc
ture or be thrown from the vehi
cle resulting in serious injury or
death.
•Always sit upright with the seat
back in an upright position, cen
tered on the seat cushion with
your seat belt on, legs comfort
ably extended and your feet on
the floor.
