1- 26 parts. If the liquid from the air freshener does leak onto these areas, wash them withwater immediately. WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be
a loud noise and fine dust will be re-leased throughout the vehicle. These con-ditions are normal and are not hazard-ous. However, the fine dust generatedduring airbag deployment may causeskin irritation. Wash your hands and facethoroughly with lukewarm water and amild soap after an accident in which theairbags were deployed.
o The SRS can function only when the ignition key is in the "ON" position. If theSRS SRI does not come on, or continu-ously remains on, after flashing for about6 seconds when the ignition key is turnedto the "ON" position, or after the engineis started, comes on while driving, theSRS is not working properly. If this oc-curs, have your vehicle immediately in-spected by your Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or disconnect a battery terminal, turn the ignition key tothe "LOCK" position or remove the igni-tion key. Never remove or replace the airbag related fuse(s) when the ignition keyis in the "ON" position. Failure to heedthis warning will cause the SRS SRI toilluminate.
Passenger's Airbag
YR10353A
After complete inflation, the airbag immediately starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintainforward visibility. CAUTION: When installing a container of liquid airfreshener inside a vehicle, do not place itnear the instrument cluster nor on the in-strument panel pad surface. If there is anyleakage from the air freshener onto theseareas (instrument cluster, instrument panelpad or air ventilator), it may damage these
CAUTION:Do not install or place any accessories (drinkholder, cassette holder, sticker, etc) on thefront passenger's panel above the glovebox in a vehicle with passenger's air bag.Such objects may become dangerous pro-jectiles and cause injury if the passenger'sair bag inflates.
Passenger's Airbag
The airbag modules are located both in the center of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box. Whenthe SRSCM detects a considerable impact tothe front of the vehicle, it will automaticallydeploy the airbags.
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directlyinto the pad covers will separate under pres-sure from the expansion of the airbags. Furtheropening of the covers then allows full inflationof the airbags. A fully inflated airbag in combination with a properly worn seat belt slows the driver's or thepassenger's forward motion, thus reducing therisk of head or chest injury.

1- 28 o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use
only a soft, dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plain water. Sol-vents or cleaners could adversely affectthe airbag covers and proper deploy-ment of the system.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steering wheel,instrument panel, and the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box,because any such object could causeharm if the vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the airbags to inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS wiring, or other components of the SRSsystem. Doing so could result in injury,due to accidental firing of the airbags orby rendering the SRS inoperative.
o If components of the airbag system must be discarded, or if the vehicle must bescrapped, certain safety precautionsmust be observed. Your Hyundai dealerknows these precautions and can giveyou the necessary information. Failureto follow these precautions and proce-dures could increase the risk of personalinjury. o If you sell your vehicle, make certain that
this manual is transferred to the newowner.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked carpeting or water on flooring, youshouldn't try to start engine; have the cartowed to authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not replace the bumper or the bumper guard with the one other than the Hyundaigenuine parts. Otherwise, it can adverselyaffect SRS performance and lead to un-expected injury.

WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position.
A child restraint system must never beplaced in the front seat. The infant orchild could be severely injured by anairbag deployment in case of an acci-dent.
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protectedby an airbag in front of it!
o Modification to SRS components or wir- ing, including the addition of any kind ofbadges to the pad covers or modifica-tions to the body structure, can adverselyaffect SRS performance and lead to pos-sible injury.
