tion key is turned to "ON" or if it remains illuminated after blinking for approxi-mately 6 seconds, or if it illuminates whilstthe vehicle is being driven, please havean authorized Hyundai dealer inspect thepre-tensioner seat belts and SRS airbagsystem as soon as possible.
WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate only one time. After activation, pre- tensioner seat belts must be replaced.All seat belts, of any type, should alwaysbe replaced after they have been wornduring a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly mechanisms become hot during activa-tion. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seatbelt assemblies for several minutes afterthey have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or replace the pre-tensioner seat belts yourself. Thismust be done by an authorized Hyundaidealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt system in anymanner.
o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies, and failure to heedthe warnings to not strike, modify, insp-ect, replace, service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies may lead to improper operation or inadvertent ac-tivation and serious injury.
o Always wear seat belts when driving or riding in a motor vehicle.
NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts will be activatedin certain frontal collisions. The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated aloneor, where the frontal collision is severeenough, together with the airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise may be heard andfine dust, which may appear to be smoke,may be visible in the passenger compart-ment. These are normal operating condi-tions and are not hazardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust may cause skin irritation and should notbe breathed for prolonged periods. Washyour hands and face thoroughly after anaccident in which the pre-tensioner seatbelts were activated.
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected with pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warn-ing light on the instrument panel willblink for approximately 6 seconds afterthe ignition key has been turned to the"ON" position, and then it should turnoff.
o If pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, this warning light will illumi-nate even if there is no malfunction of theSRS airbag. If the SRS airbag warninglight does not illuminate when the igni-

BAG
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of the system's presence are the letters "SRS AIRBAG" embossed on the airbag pad cover in thesteering wheel and the passenger's side frontpanel pad above the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed
under the pad covers in the centre of thesteering wheel and the passenger's side frontpanel above the glove box. The purpose of theSRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the

B240B01L-D
The SRS consists of the following components:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- Knee Bolster
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elements whilst the ignition is "ON" to determine if afrontal or near-frontal impact is severe enoughto require airbag deployment.o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear-impact or rollover crashes. In addition, airbags will not nor-mally deploy in frontal crashes below thedeployment threshold speed.
o For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occupants includingthe driver should always wear their seatbelts whether or not an airbag is alsoprovided at their seating position to mini-mize the risk of severe injury or death inthe event of a crash. Do not sit or leanunnecessarily close to the airbag whilstthe vehicle is in motion.
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.
front passenger with additional protection thanthat offered by the seat belt system alone, incase of a frontal impact of sufficient severity.
NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS
on the labels provided on the reverse of the sun visor and in the glove box.
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 whilst the vehicle isin motion. The airbags deploy only incertain frontal impact conditions severeenough to likely cause significant injuryto the vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags only when an impact is sufficiently se-vere and when the impact angle is lessthan 30° from the forward longitudinalaxis of the vehicle and will not deploy inside, rear or rollover impacts. Addition-ally, the airbags will only deploy once.Thus, seat belts must be worn at alltimes.
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in light collisions in which protection canbe provided by the seat belt alone.

Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly
into the pad covers will separate under pres- sure from the expansion of the airbags. Furtheropening of the covers then allows full inflation ofthe airbags.
A fully inflated airbag in combination with a
properly worn seat belt slows the driver's or thepassenger's forward motion, thus reducing the
risk of head or chest injury. After complete inflation, the airbag immediately
starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain forward visibility.
B240B02L-D
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, afterwhich the SRI should go out.
The airbag modules are located both in the
centre of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box. Whenthe SRSCM detects a considerable impact tothe front of the vehicle, it will automaticallydeploy the airbags.B240B03L-D
CAUTION: When installing a container of liquid air
freshener inside a vehicle, do not place itnear the instrument cluster nor on the in-strument panel pad surface. If there is anyleakage from the air freshener onto theseareas (instrument cluster, instrument panelpad or air ventilator), it may damage theseparts. If the liquid from the air freshenerdoes leak onto these areas, wash them withwater immediately.

1- 28 B240C01HP-GAT SRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-free and so there are no parts you can safely service byyourself. The entire SRS system must be in-
spected by an authorized Hyundai dealer 10
years after the date that the vehicle was man-ufactured. 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 personal injury.
WARNING:
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it!
o Modification to SRS components or wir- ing, including the addition of any kind ofbadges to the pad covers or modifica-tions to the body structure, can adverse-ly affect SRS performance and lead topossible injury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use only a soft, dry cloth or one which hasbeen 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 front passen-ger's panel above the glove box, becauseany such object could cause harm if the

WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dust will be re- leased throughout the vehicle. These con-ditions are normal and are not hazard-ous. However, the fine dust generatedduring airbag deployment may cause skinirritation. Be sure to wash your handsand face thoroughly with lukewarm wa-ter and a mild soap after an accident inwhich the airbags were deployed.
o The SRS can function only when the ignition key is in the "ON" position. If theSRS SRI does not come on, or continu-ously remains on, after flashing for about6 seconds when the ignition key is turnedto the "ON" position, or after the engineis started, or comes on whilst driving, theSRS is not working properly. If this oc-curs, have your vehicle immediately in-spected by your Hyundai dealer. o Before you replace a fuse or disconnect
a battery terminal, turn the ignition key tothe "LOCK" position or remove the igni-tion key. Never remove or replace the airbag related fuse(s) when the ignition keyis in the "ON" position. Failure to heedthis warning will cause the SRS SRI toilluminate.
