Passenger's Airbag
B240B04FC-D
Upon deployment, tear seams molded di- rectly into the pad covers will separate underpressure from the expansion of the airbags.Further opening of the covers then allows fullinflation of the airbags. A fully inflated airbag in combination with a properly worn seat belt slows the driver's orthe passenger's forward motion, thus reduc-ing the risk of head or chest injury. CAUTION: Do not install or place any accessories (drink holder, cassette holder, sticker, etc)on the front passenger's panel above theglove box in a vehicle with passenger'sside air bag.

The SRS consists of the following compo- nents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)

WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position.
A child restraint system must never be placed in the front seat. The infant orchild could be severely injured by anairbag deployment in case of an accident.
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat pro-tected by an airbag in front of it!
o Modification to SRS components or wir- ing, including the addition of any kindof badges to the pad covers or modifi-cations to the body structure, can ad-versely affect SRS performance and leadto possible injury.
WARNING:
o For best protection from the side airbag
system and to avoid being injured is by the deploying side impact airbag, both front seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt prop-erly fastened. The driver's hands shouldbe placed on the steering wheel at the9:00 and 3:00 o'clock positions. Thepassenger's arms and hands should beplaced in their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat covers.
o Use of seat covers could reduce or prevent the effectiveness of the system.
o Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side impact airbag.
o Do not use excessive force on the side of the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag and yourself. B240C03Y-GAT SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenance-free and there are no parts you can safely service byyourself. The entire SRS system must beinspected by an authorized Hyundai dealer in10 years after the date that the vehicle wasmanufactured. Any work on the SRS system, such as remov- ing, installing, repairing, or any work on thesteering wheel must be performed by a quali-fied Hyundai technician. Improper handling ofthe SRS system may result in serious per-sonal injury.
HFC2092-DSide airbag sensor
o Do not place any objects (an umbrella,
bag, etc.) between the front door and the front seat. Such objects may be-come dangerous projectiles and causeinjury if the supplemental side impactair bag inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deployment of the side impact air bag that may resultin personal injury, avoid impact to theside airbag sensor when the ignitionkey is on.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use only a soft, dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plain water.Solvents or cleaners could adverselyaffect the airbag covers and properdeployment of the system.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steeringwheel, 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 per-sonal injury. o If you sell your vehicle, be sure to
inform the new owner of these impor-tant points and make certain that thismanual is transferred to the new owner.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked carpeting or water on flooring, youshouldn't try to start engine; have thecar towed to authorized Hyundaidealer.
o Do not replace the bumper or the bumper guard with the one other thanthe Hyundai genuine parts. Otherwise,it can adversely affect SRS performanceand lead to unexpected injury.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTThe vehicle sidelights and headlights are op-
erated by rotating the end of the turn signal switch barrel. To operate the parking lights,rotating the switch to the first detent withignition switch at the "OFF" position will causethe lights to illuminate. To operate the head-lights, the turn signal switch barrel should berotated to the second detent. The headlightswill only operate when the ignition switch is atthe "On" position. If the ignition switch isturned to the "Off" position, only the parkinglights will function. Parking light auto cut (Not all models)
If you do not turn the parking lights "OFF"
after driving, the parking light will automati- cally shut "OFF" when the driver's door isopened.

MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH Turn Signal Operation
To signal an intention to turn right, the switch
lever should be pressed down. To signal an intention to turn left, the switch lever should bepushed upwards. In both instances, the turnsignal lights on one side of the car will flash andthe warning light located in the instrumentcluster will flash in sympathy. Upon completionof the manoeuvre, the lever will, under normalcircumstances, return to the "Off" position.However, if the manoeuvre involved only asmall movement of the steering wheel, thesignal may need to be cancelled manually. Ifeither turn signal indicator flashes more rapidlythan normal or refuses to flash at all, a mal-function of the turn signal system may exist. SB220B1-E Lane Change Signal To indicate an intention to change lanes, moving the lever slightly towards the directionof the relevant turn signal will cause the turnsignal lights to flash. When the lever is re-leased, it will return to the "off" position.
