B240A03F-AAT SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (If installed)
AS10356A
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of thesystem's presence are the letters "SRS AIRBAG"embossed on the airbag pad cover in the steeringwheel and the passenger's side front panel padabove the glove box. The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in the center of the steeringwheel and the passenger's side front panel abovethe glove box. The purpose of the SRS is toprovide the vehicle's driver and the front passen-ger with additional protection when used to-gether with the seat belt, in case of a frontalimpact. NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS onthe labels provided on the backside of thesun visor and in the glove box.
B180B01X-GAT Pre-tensioner Seat Belt (If installed)Ordinarily the pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as E.L.R (Emergency LockingRetractor) type (When vehicles stop suddenly,
the belt will lock into the position. It will alsolock if you try to lean forward too quickly.) .
However, when vehicles crash, the retractorrewinds the belt webbing. This will restrain thepassenger movement quickly and also reducethe slack between passenger and belt webbing. NOTE:
o When the pre-tensioner seat belt is acti- vated, there may be an explosion noise.This noise is normal and is not hazardous.
o Pre-tensioner seat belt is designed to op- erate only when a sufficiently severe im-pact occurs and it will be only operatedonce.
WARNING:If the pre-tensioner seat belt was activated,never attempt to replace it by yourself. It mustbe replaced by an authorized Hyundai Dealer.

1- 14 B240B03A-AAT SRS Components and Functions
o For maximum safety protection in all types
of crashes, all occupants including the driver should always wear their seat beltswhether or not an airbag is also providedat their seating position to minimize therisk of severe injury or death in the eventof a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarilyclose to the airbag while the vehicle is inmotion.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy very rapidly to provide protection in a crash. Ifan occupant is out of position because ofnot wearing a seat belt, the airbag mayforcefully contact the occupant causingserious or fatal injuries.
B240C01X
WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed
to work with, and be supplemental to, thedriver's and the passenger's three pointseat belt systems and is not a substitutefor them. Therefore, your seat belts mustbe worn at all times while the vehicle is inmotion. The airbags deploy only in certainfrontal impact conditions severe enoughto likely cause significant injury to thevehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags only when an impact is sufficiently severeand when the impact angle is less than 30°from the forward longitudinal axis of thevehicle and will not deploy in side, rear orrollover impacts. Additionally, the airbagswill only deploy once. Thus, seat beltsmust be worn at all times.
Rear impact
Side impact Rollover
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear-impact or rollover crashes. In addition, airbags will not de-ploy in frontal crashes below the deploy-ment threshold speed.
o The driver should sit back as far as possi- ble while still maintaining control of thevehicle. If you are sitting too close to theairbag, it can cause death or serious injurywhen it inflates.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steering wheel,instrument panel, and the front passen-ger's panel above the glove box, becauseany such object could cause harm if thevehicle is in a crash severe enough tocause the airbags to deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS wiring, or other components of the SRSsystem. Doing so could result in injury,due to accidental firing of the airbags orby rendering the SRS inoperative.
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position. A childrestraint system must never be placed inthe front seat. The infant or child could beseverely injured or killed by an airbagdeployment in case of an accident.Do not allow children to ride in the frontpassenger seat. If also children(teenagersand older) must ride in the front seat,make sure they are always properly beltedand that the seat is moved back as far aspossible.FUA1111B

The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blink for about 6 secondsafter the ignition key is turned to the "ON"position or after the engine is started, after whichthe SRI should go out. The airbag modules are located both in thecenter of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box. Whenthe SRSCM detects a considerable impact to thefront of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy theairbags.
The SRS consists of the following components:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elementswhile the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontalor near-frontal impact is severe enough to re-quire airbag deployment. Upon deployment, tear seams molded directlyinto the pad covers will separate under pressurefrom the expansion of the airbags. Further open-ing of the covers then allows full inflation of theairbags. A fully inflated airbag in combination with a prop- erly worn seat belt slows the driver's or thepassenger's forward motion, thus reducing therisk of head or chest injury. After complete inflation, the airbag immediately starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintainforward visibility. CAUTION: When installing a container of liquid air fresh-ener inside a vehicle, do not place it near theinstrument cluster nor on the instrument panelpad surface. If there is any leakage from theair freshener onto these areas (Instrument
