B990B03Y-GAT Side Impact Airbag (If Installed)B990B02Y
Your Hyundai is equipped with a side airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the airbag is toprovide the vehicle's driver and/or the frontpassenger with additional protection than thatoffered by the seatbelt alone. The side impactairbags are designed to deploy only duringcertain side impact collisions, depending on thecrash severity, angle, speed and point of im-pact. The air bags are not designed to deploy inall side impact situations.

1- 28 o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use
only a soft, dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plain water. Sol-vents or cleaners could adversely affectthe airbag covers and proper deploy-ment of the system.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steering wheel,instrument panel, and the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box,because any such object could causeharm if the vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the airbags to inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, 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 If components of the airbag system must be discarded, or if the vehicle must bescrapped, certain safety precautionsmust be observed. Your Hyundai dealerknows these precautions and can giveyou the necessary information. Failureto follow these precautions and proce-dures could increase the risk of personalinjury. o If you sell your vehicle, make certain that
this manual is transferred to the newowner.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
1- 16 o Since a safety belt or child restraint
system can become very hot if it is left in a closed vehicle, be sure to check theseat cover and buckles before placing achild there.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, fasten it with a safety belt so thatit will not be thrown forward in the caseof a sudden stop or an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a child restraint should still sit in the rearseat and be restrained with the avail-able lap/shoulder belts. Never allowchildren to ride in the front passengerseat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt portion of the outboard lap/shoulder beltis positioned midway over the shoul-der, never across the neck or behindthe back. Moving the child closer to thecenter of the vehicle may help provide agood shoulder belt fit. The lap belt por-tion of the lap/shoulder belt or the cen-ter seat lap belt must always be posi-tioned as low as possible on the child'ships and as snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, we recommend the use of anapproved booster seat in the rear seatin order to raise the child's seatingheight so that the seat belt will properlyfit the child.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.
B230A03P-EAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be properly restrainedto minimize the risk of injury in an accident,sudden stop or sudden maneuver. Accordingto accident statistics, children are safer whenproperly restrained in the rear seats than inthe front seat. Larger children should use oneof the seat belts provided. You are required by law to use safety re- straints for children. If small children ride inyour vehicle you must put them in a childrestraint system (safety seat). Children could be injured or killed in a crash if their restraints are not properly secured. Forsmall children and babies, a child seat orinfant seat must be used. Before buying aparticular child restraint system, make sure itfits your car and seat belts, and fits your child.Follow all the instructions provided by themanufacturer when installing the child restraintsystem. WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed
in the rear seat. Never install a child or infant seat on the front passenger's seat. Should an accident occur and cause the passenger side airbag to deploy, itcould severely injure or kill an infant orchild seated in an infant or child seat.Thus, only use a child restraint in therear seat of your vehicle.
