OHI038158
NEVER lean on the door or center console or sit on
one side of the front passenger seat.
OJX1039069
Do not sit on the passenger seat wearing heavily
padded clothes such as ski wear and hip protector.
OJX1039070
Do not use car seat accessories such as thick blankets
and cushions which cover up the car seat surface.
OJX1039071
Do not place electronic devices such as laptops, DVD
player, or conductive materials such as water bottles
on the passenger seat.
Do not use electronic devices such as laptops and
satellite radios which use inverter chargers.
OJX1039072
If large quantity of liquid has been spilled on the
passenger seat, the air bag warning light may
illuminate or malfunction.
Therefore, make sure the seat has been completely
dried before driving the vehicle.
Do not place sharp objects on the front passenger seat. These may damage the
occupant detection system, if they puncture the seat cushion.
Do not place any items under the front passenger seat.
When changing or replacing the seat or seat cover, use original items only.
The OCS has been developed based on using original HYUNDAI car seats only.
Altering or changing the authentic parts may result in system malfunction and
increase risk of injury when in collision. Any of the above could interfere with the
proper operation of the OCS sensor thereby increasing the risk of an injury in an
accident.

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 illuminate when
the Engine Start/Stop button is in the
ON position, or continuously remains on,
have the system 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 passenger’s panel, front
seats and roof rails be performed by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Improper
handling of the SRS system may result in
serious personal injury.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death take the following precautions:
Do not attempt to modify or
disconnect the SRS components or
wiring, including the addition of any
kind of badges to the pad covers or
modifications to the body structure.
Do not place objects over or near
the air bag modules on the steering
wheel, instrument panel, and the
front passenger’s panel above the
glove box.
Clean the air bag pad covers with
a soft cloth moistened with plain
water. Solvents or cleaners could
adversely affect the air bag covers
and proper deployment of the
system.
We recommend that inflated air
bags be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
If components of the air bag system
must be discarded, or if the vehicle
must be scrapped, certain safety
precautions must be observed.
Consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer for the necessary information.
Failure to follow these precautions
could increase the risk of personal
injury.

seconds and then goes off.
When there is a malfunction with the
SRS.
In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Parking brake & Brake fluid
warning light

indicates the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the engine stopped, check the
brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required (For more details,
refer to “Brake Fluid” section in
chapter 9). After adding brake fluid,

Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking system. This means you
still have braking on two wheels even if
one of the dual systems should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal travel
and greater pedal pressure is required to
stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working.
If the brakes fail while you are driving,
shift to a lower gear for additional engine
braking and stop the vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so.
WARNING
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid warning
light
Driving the vehicle with a warning light
ON is dangerous. If the Parking Brake
& Brake Fluid warning light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level is
low.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
warning light
When you set the ignition switch or
the Engine Start/Stop button to the
ON position.
- The ABS warning light illuminates
for about 3 seconds and then goes
off.
Whenever there is a malfunction with
the ABS.
Note that the hydraulic braking
system will still be operational even if
there is a malfunction with the ABS.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Electronic Brake Force
Distribution (EBD) system
warning light
When the ABS warning and
Parking Brake warning lights are on
simultaneously, it may indicate a
problem with the Electronic Brake Force
Distribution system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

WARNING
Electronic Brake Force Distribution
(EBD) system warning light
When both ABS and Parking Brake &
Brake Fluid warning lights are on, the
brake system will not work normally
and you may experience an unexpected
and dangerous situation during sudden
braking.
If this occurs, avoid high speed driving
and abrupt braking.
Have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
