WARNING
Always use seat belts and child
restraints – every trip, every
time, everyone! Air bags inflate
with considerable force and in
the blink of an eye. Seat belts
help keep occupants in proper
position to obtain maximum
benefit from the air bag. Even
with air bags, improperly and
unbelted occupants can be
severely injured when the air
bag inflates. Always follow the
precautions about seat belts, air
bags and occupant safety con-
tained in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious
or fatal injuries and receive the
maximum safety benefit from
your restraint system:
• Never place a child in any
child or booster seat in the
front seat. NB See section -
Passenger's front air bag
ON/OFF switch (if equipped).
(Continued)
(Continued)
• ABC – Always Buckle
Children in the back seat. It is
the safest place for children of
any age to ride.
• Front and side air bags can
injure occupants improperly
positioned in the front seats.
• Move your seat as far back as
practical from the front air
bags, whilst still maintaining
control of the vehicle.
• You and your passengers
should never sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the air
bags. Improperly positioned
drivers and passengers can
be severely injured by inflat-
ing air bags.
• Never lean against the door or
centre console – always sit in
an upright position.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• Do not allow a passenger to
ride in the front seat when the
passenger’s front air bag OFF
indicator is illuminated,
because the air bag will not
deploy in the event of a mod-
erate or severe frontal crash.
• No objects should be placed
over or near the air bag mod-
ules on the steering 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 deploy.
• Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring or other com-
ponents of the SRS system.
Doing so could result in
injury, due to accidental
deployment of the air bags or
by rendering the SRS inopera-
tive.

Side impact air bag
(if equipped)
❈The actual air bags in the vehicle may dif-
fer from the illustration.
Your vehicle is equipped with a side
impact air bag in each front seat.The purpose of the air bag is to pro-
vide the vehicle's driver and/or the
front passenger with additional pro-
tection than that offered by the seat
belt alone.
The side impact air bags are
designed to deploy only during cer-
tain side-impact collisions, depend-
ing on the crash severity, angle,
speed and point of impact. The side
air bags are not designed to deploy
in all side impact situations.
The side impact air bags do not only
deploy on the side of the impact but
also on the opposite side.
WARNING
• The side impact air bag is
supplemental 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 whilst the vehicle is in
motion. The air bags deploy
only in certain side impact or
rollover* conditions severe
enough to cause significant
injury to the vehicle occu-
pants.
• For best protection from the
side impact air bag system
and to avoid being injured by
the deploying side impact air
bag, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright posi-
tion with the seat belt properly
fastened. The driver's hands
should be placed on the steer-
ing wheel at the 9:00 and 3:00
positions. The passenger's
arms and hands should be
placed on their laps.
(Continued)
WARNING
Do not allow the passengers to
lean their heads or bodies onto
doors, put their arms on the
doors, stretch their arms out of
the window, or place objects
between the doors and passen-
gers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.

SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-
free and so there are no parts you
can safely service by yourself. If the
SRS air bag warning light does not
illuminate, or continuously remains
on, we recommend that the system
be inspected by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
WARNING
• Modification to SRS compo-
nents or wiring, including the
addition of any kind of badges
to the pad covers or modifica-
tions to the body structure,
can adversely affect SRS per-
formance and lead to possible
injury.
• 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 deploy-
ment of the system.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• No objects should be placed
over or near the air bag mod-
ules on the steering 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.
• If the air bags inflate, we rec-
ommend that the system be
replaced by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
• Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring, or other com-
ponents of the SRS system.
Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental inflation of
the air bags or by rendering the
SRS inoperative.
(Continued)(Continued)
• If components of the air bag
system must be discarded, or if
the vehicle must be scrapped,
certain safety precautions must
be observed. A HYUNDAI
authorised repairer knows
these precautions and can give
you the necessary information.
Failure to follow these precau-
tions and procedures could
increase the risk of personal
injury.
• If your car was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or water on
flooring, you shouldn't try to
start the engine; we recom-
mend that you contact a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.

Electronic power steering
(if equipped)
Power steering uses the motor to
assist you in steering the vehicle. If
the engine is off or if the power steer-
ing system becomes inoperative, the
vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
The motor driven power steering is
controlled by the power steering con-
trol unit which senses the steering
wheel torque and vehicle speed to
command the motor.
The steering wheel becomes heavier
as the vehicle’s speed increases and
becomes lighter as the vehicle’s
speed decreases for better control of
the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
✽NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The EPS warning light does not
illuminate.
• The steering effort is high immedi-
ately after turning the ignition
switch on. This happens as the sys-
tem performs the EPS system
diagnostics. When the diagnostics
is completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from
the EPS relay after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON or
LOCK/OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when
the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.
• The steering effort increases if the
steering wheel is rotated continu-
ously when the vehicle is not in
motion. However, after a few min-
utes, it will return to its normal
conditions.
(Continued)(Continued)
• If the Electronic Power Steering
System does not operate normally,
the warning light will illuminate on
the instrument cluster. The steer-
ing wheel may become difficult to
control or operate abnormally. We
recommend that you contact a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
• When you operate the steering
wheel in low temperature, abnor-
mal noise could occur. If tempera-
ture rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.

Features of your vehicle
Power steering (if equipped)
Power steering uses energy from the
engine to assist you in steering the
vehicle. If the engine is off or if the
power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
✽NOTICE
If the power steering drive belt
breaks or if the power steering
pump malfunctions, the steering
effort will greatly increase.
✽NOTICE
If the vehicle is parked for extended
periods outside in cold weather
(below -10°C/14°F), the power steer-
ing may require increased effort
when the engine is first started. This
is caused by increased fluid viscosity
due to the cold weather and does not
indicate a malfunction.
When this happens, increase the
engine RPM by depressing accelera-
tor until the RPM reaches 1,500 rpm
then release or let the engine idle for
two or three minutes to warm up the
fluid.
Tilt steering
A tilt steering wheel allows you to
adjust the steering wheel before you
drive. You can also raise it to give
your legs more room when you exit
and enter the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be posi-
tioned so that it is comfortable for
you to drive, whilst permitting you to
see the instrument panel warning
lights and gauges.
CAUTION
Never hold the steering wheel
against a stop (extreme right or
left turn) for more than 5 sec-
onds with the engine running.
Holding the steering wheel for
more than 5 seconds in either
position may cause damage to
the power steering pump.
WARNING
• Never adjust the angle and
height of steering wheel
whilst driving. You may lose
your steering control and
cause severe personal injury
or accidents.
• After adjusting, push the
steering wheel both up and
down to be certain it is locked
in position.

To change the steering wheel angle,
pull down the lock release lever (1),
adjust the steering wheel to the
desired angle (2) and height (3), then
pull up the lock-release lever to lock
the steering wheel in place. Be sure
to adjust the steering wheel to the
desired position before driving.
Heated steering wheel
(if equipped)
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, pressing the heated steer-
ing wheel button warms the steering
wheel. The indicator on the button
will illuminate and notify you on the
LCD display.
To turn the heated steering wheel off,
press the button once again. The
indicator on the button will turn off
and notify you on the LCD display.
✽NOTICE
The heated steering wheel will turn
off automatically approximately 30
minutes after the heated steering
wheel is turned on.

CAUTION
Do not install any grip to oper-
ate the steering wheel. This
causes damage to the heated
steering wheel system.
