Curtain air bags
Curtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
Do not allow 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 seats.
Hold the steering wheel at the
9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi-
tions, to minimize the risk of
injuries to your hands and
arms.
Do not use any accessory
seat covers. This could reduce
or prevent the effectiveness
of the system.
Do not place any objects over
the air bag or between the air
bag and yourself. Also, do not
attach any objects around the
area the air bag inflates such
as the door, side door glass,
front and rear pillar.
Do not place any objects
between the door and the
seat. They may become dan-
gerous projectiles if the side
air bag inflates.
Do not install any accessories
on the side or near the side air
bags.
Do not put any objects
between the side airbag label
and seat cushion. It could
cause harm if the vehicle is in
a crash severe enough to
cause the air bags to deploy.
Do not cause impact to the
doors when the ignition
switch button is in the ON
position as this may cause the
side air bags to inflate.
If the seat or seat cover is
damaged, have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Safe Exit Assist (SEA) System
(if equipped)
1. The Safe Exit Assist system is pro-vided to help prevent the passen-
gers from opening a door by warning
the passengers when an approach-
ing vehicle from the rear area is
detected after the vehicle stops.
2. When an approaching vehicle from the rear area is detected
after the vehicle stops, the rear
door does not unlock even when
the driver tries to unlock the rear
door using the Electronic child
safety lock button. The "Check
surroundings then try again"
warning message appears on the
cluster and a warning sounds. However if you press the switch
within 10 seconds after the warn-
ing message appears (the indica-
tor on the switch will turn off), the
system judges that the driver
unlocked the door acknowledging
the rear status and released
regardless of the rear status.
3. When an approaching vehicle from the rear is detected the
moment the door is opened, the
"Watch for traffic" warning mes-
sage appears on the cluster and a
warning sounds.
The above 2 and 3 functions are activated when you select ‘Driver
Assistance →Blind-Spot Safety →
Safe Exit Assistance (SEA)’ from
the User Settings mode in the clus-
ter LCD display. The Electronic child safety lock
system will operate for approxi-
mately 10 minutes after the ignition
key is removed or turned to the
LOCK (or OFF) position. After
about 10 minutes, the indicator on
the switch turns off and you cannot
deactivate the Electronic child
safety lock system. To deactivate
the Electronic child safety lock sys-
tem, press the Electronic child safe-
ty lock switch again with the ignition
switch in the ON position or after
starting the engine.
When the power is supplied again after removing the battery or bat-
tery discharge while the child safe-
ty lock is in the lock position, press
the child safety lock switch once
again to match the state of the indi-
cator on the child safety lock switch
and actual status of the Electronic
child safety lock system.
If the airbag is activated while the child safety lock switch is ON (the
indicator on the switch illuminates)
it automatically switches OFF and
the rear door is unlocked.
