CAUTION:
When installing a container of liquid air freshener inside the vehicle, do not place it near the instrument cluster
nor on the instrument panel surface. If there is any leakage from the air freshener onto these areas
(Instrument cluster, instrument panel or air ventilator), it may damage these parts. If the liquid from the air
freshener does leak onto these areas, wash them with water immediately.

B090A02TG-AATFront Power SeatsThe front seats can be adjusted appropri-
ately by using the control knob on the seat.
Before driving, adjust the seat to the proper
position so as to easily control the steering
wheel, pedals and switches on the instru-
ment panel.
CAUTION:
Do not operate two knobs at the same
time.
WARNING:
o Never adjust a driver’s seat while the
vehicle is moving. Any sudden or
unexpected movement of the seat
could cause you to lose control of the
vehicle resulting in an accident. Only
adjust the driver’s seat when the ve-
hicle is stationary.
o Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close
to the air bag. Position the seat so that
you can sit as far back as possible
from the air bag and still comfortably
reach all controls.

The SRS uses a collection of sensors to
gather information about the driver's and
front passenger's seat position, the driver's
and front passenger's seat belt usage and
impact severity.
The driver's seat position sensors, which
are installed on the seat track, determine
if the seats are fore or aft of a reference
position. Similarly, the seat belt usage
sensors determine if the driver and front
passenger's seat belts are fastened. These
sensors provide the ability to control the
SRS deployment based on how close the
driver's seat is to the steering wheel,
whether or not the seat belts are fastened,
and how severe the impact is.
The advanced SRS offers the ability to
control the air bag inflation with two levels.
A first stage level is provided for moderate-
severity impacts. A second stage level is
provided for more severe impacts.According to the impact severity, driver's
seating position, the SRSCM(SRS Con-
trol Module) controls the air bag inflation.
Failure to properly wear seat belts can
increase the risk or severity of injury in an
accident.
Additionally, your Hyundai is equipped
with an occupant classification system in
the front passenger's seat. The occupant
classification system detects the presence
of a passenger in the front passenger's
seat and will turn off the front passenger's
air bag under certain conditions. For more
detail, see "Occupant Classification Sys-
tem" later in this section.
DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S FRONT AIR BAGB240A01CM-AATYour Hyundai is equipped with an ad-
vanced Supplemental Restraint (Air bag)
System. The indications of the system's
presence are the letters "SRS AIR BAG"
embossed on the air bag pad cover in the
steering wheel and the passenger's side
front panel pad above the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of air bags
installed under the pad covers in the cen-
ter of the steering wheel and the
passenger's side front panel above the
glove box. The purpose of the SRS is to
provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front
passenger with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt system alone,
in case of a frontal impact of sufficient
severity.

Driver's Air bag
Page 62 of 355
1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI50
A fully inflated air bag, in combination with
a properly worn seat belt, slows the driver's
or the passenger's forward motion, reduc-
ing the risk of head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag imme-
diately starts deflating, enabling the driver
to maintain forward visibility, and the abil-
ity to steer or operate other controls.
B240B03L
Upon deployment, tear seams molded
directly into the pad covers will separate
under pressure from the expansion of the
air bags. Further opening of the covers
then allows full inflation of the air bags.
B240B02L
The air bag modules are located both in
the center of the steering wheel and in the
front passenger's panel above the glove
box. When the SRSCM detects a suffi-
ciently severe impact to the front of the
vehicle, it will automatically deploy the
front air bags.

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.

B240C01CM-AATSRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance free and
there are no parts you can safely service by
yourself. If the SRS SRI (Service Reminder
Indicator) does not illuminate, or continu-
ously remains on, have your vehicle im-
mediately inspected by your Hyundai
dealer.
Any work on the SRS system, such as
removing, installing, repairing, or any work
on the steering wheel must be performed
by a qualified Hyundai technician. Improper
handling of the air bag system may result
in serious personal injury.

WARNING:
o The built in coat hooks should only be
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.
