3. SRS control module WARNING: To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn correctly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position.
The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in a simi-lar same way as an Emergency Locking Re-tractor (ELR) type of seat belt. When the ve-hicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant tries tolean forward too quickly, the seat belt retractorwill lock into position. However, in certain fron-tal collisions, the pre-tensioner will activate andpull the seat belt into tighter contact against theoccupant's body.

1- 24 CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the
SRS airbag is connected with the pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warn-ing light on the instrument panel willblink for approximately 6 seconds afterthe ignition key has been turned to the"ON" position, and then it should turnoff.
o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not work- ing properly, this warning light will illu-minate even if there is no malfunction ofthe SRS airbag system . If the SRS airbagwarning light does not illuminate whenthe ignition key is turned to "ON", or if itremains illuminated after blinking forapproximately 6 seconds, or if it illumi-nates while the vehicle is being driven,please have an authorized Hyundai deal-er inspect the pre-tensioner seat belt orSRS airbag system as soon as possible. WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate
only one time. After activation, pre-tensioner seat belts must be replaced.All seat belts, of any type, should alwaysbe replaced after they have been wornduring a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly mechanisms become hot during activa-tion. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seatbelt assemblies for several minutes afterthey have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or replace the pre-tensioner seat belts yourself. Thismust be done by an authorized Hyundaidealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt system in anymanner.
o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies, and failure to heedthe warnings to not strike, modify, in-spect, replace, service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies may leadto improper operation or inadvertent ac-tivation and serious injury.
o Always wear the seat belts when driving or riding in a motor vehicle.
NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front passenger'spre-tensioner seat belts will be activatedin certain frontal collisions. The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activatedwith the airbags. The pre-tensioners willbe activated under these conditions evenif the seat belts are not being worn at thetime of the collision.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise may be heard andfine dust, which may appear to be smoke,may be visible in the passenger compart-ment. These are normal operating condi-tions and are not hazardous.

Side Impact Rollover
o Front airbags are not intended to de- ploy in side-impact, rear-impact or rollover crashes. In addition, airbagswill not deploy in frontal crashes belowthe deployment threshold speed.
o The driver should sit back as far as pos- sible while still maintaining control ofthe vehicle. If you are sitting too close tothe airbag, it can cause death or seriousinjury when it inflates.
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 deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRSon the labels provided on the backside ofthe sun visor and in the glove box. WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designedto work with, and be supplemental to, thedriver's and the passenger's three pointseat belt systems and is not a substitutefor them. Therefore your seat belts mustbe worn at all times while the vehicle is inmotion. In addition, the airbags deployonly in certain frontal impact conditionssevere enough to cause significant in-jury to the vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags only when an impact is sufficiently se-vere and when the impact angle is lessthan 30° from the forward longitudinalaxis of the vehicle and will not deploy inside, rear or rollover impacts. Addition-ally, the airbags will only deploy once.Thus, seat belts must be worn at alltimes.
Your Hyundai is equipped with a SupplementalRestraint (Airbag) System. The indications ofthe system's presence are the letters "SRS AIRBAG" embossed on the airbag pad cover in thesteering wheel and the passenger's side frontpanel pad above the glove box. The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in the center of thesteering wheel and the passenger's side frontpanel above the glove box. The purpose of the
SRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or thefront passenger with additional protection thanthat offered by the seat belt system alone, incase of a frontal impact of sufficient severity.

o For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occupants includ-ing the driver should always wear their seat belts whether or not an airbag 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 unnecessarily close to the airbag while the vehicle is in motion.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy very rapidly to provide protection in acrash. If an occupant is out of position because of not wearing a seat belt, the airbag may forcefully contact the occu- pant causing serious or fatal injuries.
