- You exceed the operating distance limit
(10 m).
- The battery in the transmitter is weak.
- Other vehicles or objects may be block-
ing the signal.
- The weather is extremely cold.
- The transmitter is close to a radio trans-
mitter such as a radio station or an

rectly, open and close the door with the
ignition key. If you have a problem with the
transmitter, contact an authorized Hyundai
Dealer.NOTE:Keep the transmitter away from water or

B990A02NF-AATOCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMYour vehicle is equipped with an occupant
classification system in the front passenger's
seat.
The Occupant Classification system is de-
signed to detect the presence of a properly-
seated front passenger and determine if the
passenger's front airbag should be enabled
(may inflate) or not. The driver's front airbag is
not affected or controlled by the Occupant
Classification system.
If the front passenger seat is occupied by a
person that the system determines to be of adult
size, and he/she sits properly (sitting upright
with the seatback in an upright position, cen-
tered on the seat cushion with their seat belt on,

ignition key is in the "ON" position. If the
SRS "AIRBAG" warning light does not
illuminate, or continuously remains on
after illuminating for about 6 seconds
when the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position, or after the engine is
started, comes on while driving, the SRS
is not working properly. If this occurs,
have your vehicle immediately inspect-
ed by your Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or disconnect
a battery terminal, turn the ignition key
to the "LOCK" position and remove the
ignition key. Never remove or replace the
airbag related fuse(s) when the ignition
key is in the "ON" position. Failure to

wash them with water immediately.
WARNING:
o If an airbag deploys, there may be a loud
noise followed by a fine dust released in
the vehicle. These conditions are nor-
mal and are not hazardous - the airbags
are packed in this fine powder. The dust
generated during airbag deployment
may cause skin or eye irritation as well as
aggravate asthma for some persons.

Integrated HomeLink
® Wireless Control
System
The HomeLink
® Wireless Control System pro-
vides a convenient way to replace up to three
hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters
with a single built-in device. This innovative
feature will learn the radio frequency codes of
most current transmitters to operate devices
such as gate operators, garage door openers,
entry door locks, security systems, even home
lighting. Both standard and rolling code-equipped
transmitters can be programmed by following
the outlined procedures. Additional HomeLink
®
information can be found at: www.homelink.com
or by calling 1-800-355-3515.
CAUTION:
Before programming HomeLink
® to a ga-
rage door opener or gate operator, make
sure that people and objects are out of the
way of the device to prevent potential harm
or damage. Do not use HomeLink® with any
garage door opener that lacks the safety
stop and reverse features as required by
U.S. federal safety standards (this includes
any garage door opener model manufac-
tured before April 1, 1982). A garage door
that cannot detect an object - signaling the
door to stop and reverse - does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. Using
a garage door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious injury or
death.Programming HomeLink
®
NOTE:o When programming a garage door
opener, it is advised to park the vehicle
outside of the garage.
o It is recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of
the device being programmed to
HomeLink
® for quicker training and ac-
curate transmission of the radio-fre-
quency signal.
o Some vehicles may require the ignition
switch to be turned to the second (or
"accessories") position for program-
ming and/or operation of HomeLink.
o In the event that there are still program-
ming difficulties or questions after fol-
lowing the programming steps listed
below, contact HomeLink
® at:
www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-3515.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device
you are programming for use in other vehicles
as well as for future HomeLink
® programming.
It is also suggested that upon the sale of the
vehicle, the programmed HomeLink
® buttons
be erased for security purposes.
