1- 23 The airbag 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 considerable impact to
the front of the vehicle, it will automatically
deploy the airbags.
Passenger's Airbag
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly
into the pad covers will separate under pres-
sure from the expansion of the airbags. Further
opening of the covers then allows full inflation
of the airbags.
A fully inflated airbag in combination with a
properly worn seat belt slows the driver's or the
passenger's forward motion, thus reducing the
risk of head or chest injury.
B240B04E
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on
the instrument panel will blink for about 6 sec-
onds after the ignition key is turned to the "ON"
position or after the engine is started, after
which the SRI should go out.
Passenger's Airbag
YR10353A
After complete inflation, the airbag immediately
starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain
forward visibility.

B260N01A-AATMalfunction Indicator Light
This light illuminates when there is a malfunc-
tion of an exhaust gas related component, and
the system is not functioning properly so that
the exhaust gas regulation values are not sat-
isfied. This light will also illuminate when the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, and
will go out in a few seconds. If it illuminates
while driving, or does not illuminate when the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, take
your car to your nearest authorized Hyundai
dealer and have the system checked.

BRAKE PAD WEAR WARNING SOUNDThe front disc brake pads have wear indicators
that should make a high-pitched squealing or
scraping noise when new pads are needed.
The sound may come and go or be heard all the
time when the vehicle is moving. It may also be
heard when the brake pedal is pushed down
firmly. Expensive rotor damage will result if the
worn pads are not replaced. See your Hyundai
dealer immediately.
B260Q01E-GATCruise Indicator (If Installed)
The cruise indicator light in the instrument
cluster is illuminated when the cruise control
main switch on the end of the barrel is pushed.
The indicator light does not illuminate when the
cruise control main switch is pushed a second
time.
Information on the use of cruise control may be
found on page 1-52.

B660D01E-AATTo Resume the Preset Speed
B660D01E
The vehicle will automatically resume the speed
set prior to cancellation when you push the
control switch upward to "RESUME (ACCEL)"
position and release it, providing the vehicle
speed is above 25 mph (40 km/h).
B660E01E-AAT
To Reset at a Faster Speed1. Push the control switch upward to "RE-
SUME (ACCEL)" position and hold it.
2. Accelerate to desired speed and release the
control switch. While the control switch is
held, the vehicle will gradually gain speed.
B660C02E-AAT
To Cancel the Cruise Speed
Do one of the following:
o Pull the control switch toward the steering
wheel to "CANCEL" position.
o Depress the brake pedal.
o Depress the clutch pedal (Manual transaxle).
o Shift the selector lever to "N" position (Auto-
matic transaxle).
o Decrease the vehicle speed lower than the
memorized speed by 12 mph (20 km/h).
o Decrease the vehicle speed to less than 25
mph (40 km/h).
o Release the main switch.
B660C01E
WARNING:To avoid accidental cruise control engage-
ment, keep the cruise control main switch
off when not using the cruise control.
B660B01E
B660B01E-AATTo Set the Cruise Speed
1. Push in the cruise control main switch on the
end of the barrel. The "CRUISE" indicator
light in the instrument cluster will be illumi-
nated. This turns the system on.
2. Accelerate to the desired cruising speed
above 25 mph (40 km/h).
3. Push the control switch downward to "SET
(COAST)" and release it.
4. Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal
and the desired speed will automatically be
maintained.
5. To increase speed, depress the accelerator
pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed the
preset speed. When you remove your foot
from the accelerator pedal, the vehicle will
return to the speed you have set. freeways, tollroads, or other noncongested
highways. This system is designed to function
above approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).

DRIVING FOR ECONOMY DRIVING FOR ECONOMYDRIVING FOR ECONOMY DRIVING FOR ECONOMY
DRIVING FOR ECONOMYYou can save fuel and get more miles from your
car if you follow these suggestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate
rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts or full-
throttle shifts and maintain a steady cruising
speed. Don't race between stoplights. Try to
adjust your speed to that of the other traffic so
you don't have to change speeds unneces-
sarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever possible.
Always maintain a safe distance from other
vehicles so you can avoid unnecessary brak-
ing. This also reduces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you
drive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving at
a moderate speed, especially on the high-
way, is one of the most effective ways to
reduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. This
can increase fuel consumption and also in-
crease wear on these components. In addi-
tion, driving with your foot resting on the brake
pedal may cause the brakes to overheat,
which reduces their effectiveness and may
lead to more serious consequences.
