If the front passenger seat is occupied by
a person that the system determines to be
of adult size, and he/she sits properly (sit-
ting upright with the seatback in an upright
position, centered on the seat cushion with
their seat belt on, legs comfortably ex-
tended and their feet on the floor), the
passenger air bag off indicator will be
turned off (The "OFF" will not illuminate)
and the front passenger's air bag will be
able to inflate, if necessary, in frontal
crashes.
You will find the passenger air bag off
indicator on the center facia panel. When
this indicator is ON, (The "OFF" will illumi-
nate) the front passenger's air bag will not
deploy. The side air bag will not deploy if
the front passenger seat is unoccupied.
The side air bag may deploy if the front seat
is occupied by a small occupant. The fol-
lowing table summarizes the functioning
of the system depending on the front pas-
senger seat occupant.*1) The system judges a person of adult
size as an adult. When a smaller adult
sits in the front passenger seat, the
system may recognize him/her as a
child depending on his/her physique
and posture.
*2) Do not allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat. When a larger child
who has outgrown a child restraint
system sits in the front passenger seat,
the system may recognize him/her as
an adult depending on his/her phy-
sique or posture, or objects in the lap of
the child.
*3) Never install a child restraint system on
the front passenger seat. Condition and operation in the front pas-

B990A01CM-AATOccupant Classification SystemYour vehicle is equipped with an occupant
classification system in the front
passenger's seat. The Occupant Classifi-
cation system is designed to detect the
presence of a properly-seated front pas-
senger and determine if the passenger's
front air bag should be enabled (may in-
flate or not). The driver's front air bag is not
affected or controlled by the Occupant
Classification System.

When an adult is seated in the front pas-
senger seat, if the passenger air bag off
indicator is on, turn the ignition key to
"LOCK" and ask the passenger to sit prop-
erly (sitting upright with the seat back in an
upright position, centered on the seat cush-
ion with their seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and their feet on the floor). Re-
start the engine and have the person re-
main in that position for about 40 seconds.
This will allow the system to detect the
person and to enable the passenger air
bag. If the passenger air bag off indicator
is still on, turn the ignition key to "LOCK"
and ask the passenger to sit properly and
restart the engine again. If the "PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF" indicator is still on, ask
the passenger to move to the rear seat.Proper seating position
B990A01O
WARNING:
Riding in an improper position or placing
weight on the front passenger's seat
when it is unoccupied by a passenger
adversely affects the occupant classifi-
cation system (OCS).
- NEVER put a heavy load in the front
passenger seat.
B990A08O
!
WARNING:
o Do not do any of the following. Placing
weight on the front passenger's seat
or sitting incorrectly adversely af-
fects occupant classification system
operation.

!
NOTE:The passenger air bag off indicator illu-
minates for about 4 seconds after the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" posi-
tion or after the engine is started. If the
front passenger seat is occupied, the
occupant classification sensor will then
classify the front passenger within ap-
proximately 10 seconds after the igni-
tion is turned on.
!
WARNING:
o A smaller-stature adult who is not
seated correctly (for example: seat
excessively reclined, leaning on the
center console, or hips shifted for-
ward in the seat) can cause a condi-
tion where the advanced frontal air
bag system senses less weight than
if the occupant were seated properly
(sitting upright with the seatback in an
upright position, centered on the seat
cushion with their seat belt on, legs
comfortably extended and their feet
on the floor).
o This condition can result in an adult
potentially being misclassified and
illumination of the passenger air bag
off indicator.
WARNING:
Do not allow an adult passenger to ride
in the front seat when the passenger air
bag off indicator is illuminated, because
the air bag will not deploy in the event of
a crash. If the passenger air bag off
indicator remains illuminated after the
passenger repositions themselves prop-
erly and the car is restarted, Hyundai
recommends that passenger move to
the rear seat because the passenger's
front air bag will not deploy.
!
CAUTION:
If the occupant classification system is
not working properly, the SRS air bag
warning light on the instrument panel
will illuminate because the passenger's
front air bags are connected with the
occupant classification system. If there
is a malfunction of the occupant classi-
fication system, the passenger air bag
off indicator will illuminate and the
passenger's front air bags will not inflate
in frontal impact crashes even if there is
adult occupant in the front passenger's
seat. If the SRS air bag warning light does
not illuminate when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, remains
illuminated after approximately 6 sec-
onds when the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position, or if it illuminates
while the vehicle is being driven, have an
authorized Hyundai dealer inspect the
occupant classification system and the
SRS air bag system as soon as possible.

WARNING:
o Accident statistics show that children
are safer if they are restrained in the
rear, as opposed to the front seat. It is
recommended that child restraints
be secured in a rear seat, including an
infant riding in a rear-facing infant
seat, a child riding in a forward-facing
child seat and an older child riding in
a booster seat.
o Air bags can only be used once – have
an authorized Hyundai dealer replace
the air bag immediately after deploy-
ment.
!
WARNING:
o If you change the weight on the front
passenger seat just after sit-in or re-
start of the engine, the "PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF" indicator may be
turned on or off for a few seconds,
disabling or enabling the passenger
air bags. After the initial stage of about
30 seconds, the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator will not toggle on
and off.
o Do not modify or replace the front
passenger seat. Don't place anything
on or attach anything such as a blan-
ket or after market seat heater to the
front passenger seat. This can ad-
versely affect the occupant classifi-
cation system.
o Do not sit on sharp objects such as
tools when occupying the front pas-
senger seat. This can adversely af-
fect the occupant classification sys-
tem.
o Do not use accessory seat covers on
the front seats.
!
WARNING:
o Even though your vehicle is equipped
with the occupation classification
system, never install a child restraint
system in the front passenger's seat.
A deploying air bag can forcefully
strike a child resulting in serious inju-
ries or death. Any child under 13
years of age should ride in the rear
seat. Children too large for child re-
straints should use the available lap/
shoulder belts. No matter what type
of crash, children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear seat.
o If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator is illuminated when the front
passenger's seat is occupied by an
adult and he/she sits properly (sitting
upright with the seatback in an upright
position, centered on the seat cush-
ion with their seat belt on, legs com-
fortably extended and their feet on the
floor), have that person sit in the rear
seat.

B990B03MC-AATSide Impact Air bagYour Hyundai is equipped with a side
impact air bag in each front seat. The
purpose of the air bag is to provide the
vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger
with additional protection than that offered
by the seat belt alone. The side impact air
bags are designed to deploy only during
certain side-impact collisions, depending
on the crash severity, angle, speed and
point of impact. The side impact air bags
are not designed to deploy in all side
impact situations.

Important Safety Notes on the Side
Impact Air bag SystemFollowing are a number of safety points
concerning this system which should al-
ways be observed to ensure risk of injury
is reduced in an accident.
WARNING:
o The side impact air bag is supplemen-
tal to the driver's and the passenger's
seat belt systems and is not a substi-
tute for them. Therefore your seat
belts must be worn at all times while
the vehicle is in motion. The air bags
deploy only in certain side impact
conditions severe enough to cause
significant injury to the vehicle occu-
pants.
o For best protection from the side im-
pact air bag system and to avoid be-
ing injured by the deploying side im-
pact air bag, both front seat occu-
pants should sit in an upright position
with the seat belt properly fastened.
The driver's hands should be placed
on the steering wheel at the 9:00 and
3:00 positions. The passenger's arms
and hands should be placed on their
laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat cov-
ers.
Use of seat covers could reduce or
prevent the effectiveness of the airbag
system.

B990C02JM-AATCurtain Air bagCurtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and the
rear outboard seat occupants in certain
side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to de-
ploy only during certain side impact colli-
sions, 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.
OCM052213
Curtain Air bag
!
o Do not install any accessories on the
side or near the side impact air bag.
o Do not place any objects over the air
bag or between the air bag and your-
self.
o Do not place any objects (an umbrella,
bag, etc.) between the front door and
the front seat. Such objects may be-
come dangerous projectiles and
cause injury if the supplemental side
impact air bag inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deployment
of the side impact air bag that may
result in personal injury, avoid impact
to the side impact sensor when the
ignition key is on.
WARNING:
!
WARNING:
o Before installing child restraints, al-
ways refer to the "Child Restraint
System" section to ensure correct
installation and occupant protection
is maximized.
o Make sure that the occupant does not
have any body parts (head, arms &
legs) protruding outside the restrain-
ing system. If an inflating air bag was
to strike an infant child on the head, it
may cause serious injury.
o Ensure the opening for the Curtain Air
Bag System remains unobstructed
at all times, so that the air bags can
inflate properly if needed.Important Safety Notes for Curtain
Air Bag SystemsFollowing are a number of safety points
concerning this system which should al-
ways be observed to ensure risk of injury
is reduced in an accident.

used for light weight clothing. Ensure
that clothing pockets are free of any
heavy or sharp objects. When using
coat hooks, do not hang clothes on
coat hangers.
o The space between the occupant and
the curtain air bag must never be
occupied by children, passengers or
pets. Occupants should never lean
out or have any parts of their body
protruding from the window while the
engine is running.
o Do not move the sun visor out to cover
the side window if there is an item
attached to it such as garage door
remote control, pens, compact disc
pocket, air fresheners or the like.
These objects may cause injury if the
Curtain Air Bag is deployed.
o Where sun blinds are fitted to the rear
doors, these must not obstruct or
impair the air bag in any way.o Do not install any accessories or
children’s toys in the Curtain Air Bag
deployment zones, as this may im-
pair the operation of the system or
throw parts of them into the vehicle
cabin causing injury to occupants if
the system is deployed.
o To maintain the integrity of the Cur-
tain Air Bag system, any work, re-
moval or installation of the air bag and
associated components (such as roof
lining and side trims) should always
be performed by an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
WARNING:
WARNING:
Never tamper with or disconnect the air
bag system sensors & wiring. You could
cause the air bag to inflate or the system
may fail to operate which may result in
fatal personal injury.

o For cleaning the air bag pad covers,
use only a soft, dry cloth or one which
has been moistened with plain water.
Solvents or cleaners could adversely
affect the air bag covers and proper
deployment of the system.
o No objects should be placed over or
near the air bag modules on the steer-
ing wheel, instrument panel, and the
front passenger's panel above the
glove box, because any such object
could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause the air
bags to inflate.
o If the air bags inflate, they must be
replaced by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the
SRS system. Doing so could result in
injury, due to accidental inflation of
the air bags or by rendering the SRS
inoperative.

WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint system
in the front passenger seat position.
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.
o Modification to SRS components or
wiring, including the addition of any
kind of badges to the pad covers or
modifications to the body structure,
can adversely affect SRS perfor-
mance and lead to possible injury.

!
o If components of the air bag system
must be discarded, or if the vehicle
must be scrapped, certain safety pre-
cautions must be observed. Your
Hyundai dealer knows these precau-
tions and can give you the necessary
information. Failure to follow these
precautions and procedures could
increase the risk of personal injury.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked
carpeting or water on the floor, don't
try to start the engine; have the car
towed to an authorized Hyundai dealer.

WARNING:
o Sitting improperly or out of position
can cause occupants to be shifted too
close to a deploying air bag, strike the
interior structure or be thrown from
the vehicle resulting in serious injury
or death.
o Always sit upright with the seatback
in an upright position, centered on the
seat cushion with your seat belt on,
legs comfortably extended and your
feet on the floor.
B240D02JM-AATAdditional Safety PrecautionsoNever let passengers ride in the cargo
area (trunk) 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.
oPassengers should not move out of or
change seats while the vehicle is mov-
ing. 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.
oEach 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.
oDo not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiming to improve oc-
cupant comfort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provided
by the seat belt and increase the chance
of serious injury in a crash.
oPassengers should not place hard or
sharp objects between themselves
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.oKeep 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.
oDo 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.
oDo not modify the front seats. Modifi-
cation of the front seats could interfere
with the operation of the supplemental
restraint system sensing components
or side impact air bags.
oDo not place items under the front
seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the operation
of the supplemental restraint system
sensing components and wiring har-
nesses.
oNever 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.
Adding Equipment to or Modifying
Your Air bag-Equipped Vehicle.If you modify your vehicle by changing
your vehicle's frame, bumper system, front
end or side sheet metal or ride height, this
may affect the operation of your vehicle's
air bag system.
