SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
(AIRBAG) SYSTEM (SRS) (If Installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of
the system's presence are the letters "SRS AIR
BAG" embossed on the ornament in the steer-
ing wheel and the passenger's side front panel
pad above the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed
under the pad covers in the center of the
steering wheel and the passenger's side front
panel above the glove box. The purpose of the
SRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the
front passenger with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt system alone, in
case of a frontal impact of sufficient severity.
NOTE:o Both the driver's and front passenger's
pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated
in certain frontal collisions. The pre-
tensioner seat belts can be activated alone
or, where the frontal collision is severe
enough, together with the airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are
activated, a loud noise may be heard and
fine 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 not
be breathed for prolonged periods. Wash
your hands and face thoroughly after an
accident in which the pre-tensioner seat
belts were activated.
CAUTION:o The control module that activates the
SRS airbag controls the pre-tensioner
seat belt also.
o If there is some malfunction in the pre-
tensioner seat belt circuit, the warning
light will illuminate even if there is no
malfunction in the SRS airbag system. If
the SRS airbag warning light does not
illuminate or illuminates continuously
when the ignition key is turned to "ON",
or if it remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 6 seconds, or if it illu-
minates while the vehicle is being driven,please have an authorized Hyundai deal-
er inspect the pre-tensioner seat belt or
SRS airbag system 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 always
be replaced after they have been worn
during a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly
mechanisms become hot during activa-
tion. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies for several minutes after
they have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or replace the
pre-tensioner seat belts yourself. This
must be done by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
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 any
manner.
o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies, and failure to heed
the warnings to not strike, modify, in-
spect, 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 the seat belts when driving
or riding in a motor vehicle.

NOTE:Be sure to read information about the SRS
on the labels provided on the backside 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, the
driver's and the passenger's three point
seat belt systems and is not a substitute
for them. Therefore, your seat belts must
be worn at all times while the vehicle is in
motion. The airbags deploy only in cer-
tain frontal impact conditions severe
enough to cause significant injury to the
vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags
only when an impact is sufficiently severe
and when the impact angle is less than
30° from the forward longitudinal axis of
the vehicle and will not deploy in side,
rear or rollover impacts. Additionally, the
airbags will only deploy once. Thus, seat
belts must be worn at all times.
o Front airbags are not intended deploy in
light collisions in which protection can
be provided by the seat belt.
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 pos-
sible while still maintaining control of the
vehicle. If you are sitting too close to the
airbag, it can cause death or serious
injury when it inflates.
o No objects should be placed over or near
the airbag modules on the steering wheel,
instrument panel, and the front
passenger's panel above the glove
box, because any such object could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a crash
severe enough to cause the airbags to
deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must be re-
placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

Rollovero Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the SRS
system. Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental firing of the airbags or
by rendering the SRS inoperative.
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 or child could be
severely injured or killed by an airbag
deployment in case of an accident.
o Do not allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat. If older children (teenag-
ers and older) must ride in the front seat,
make sure they are always properly belted
and that the seat is moved back as far as
possible.
o For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, all occupants including
the driver should always wear their seat
belts whether or not an airbag is also
provided at their seating position to mini-
mize the risk of severe injury or death in
the event of a crash. Do not sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the airbag while
the vehicle is in motion.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy very
rapidly to provide protection in a crash. If
an occupant is out of position because of
not wearing a seat belt, the airbag may
forcefully contact the occupant causing
serious or fatal injuries.

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.

CAUTION:Do not install or place any accessories (drink
holder, cassette holder, sticker, etc) on the
front passenger's panel above the glove box
in a vehicle with a passenger's air bag. Such
objects may become dangerous projectiles
and cause injury if the passenger's air bag
inflates.
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. 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.

SRS Components and Functions
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
while the ignition is "ON" to determine if a
frontal or near-frontal impact is severe enough
to require airbag deployment.

WARNING:o When the SRS is activated, there may be
a loud noise and fine dust will be re-
leased throughout the vehicle. These
conditions are normal and are not haz-
ardous. However, the fine dust generat-
ed during airbag deployment may cause
skin irritation. Be sure to wash your hands
and face thoroughly with lukewarm wa-
ter and a mild soap after an accident in
which the airbags were deployed.
o The SRS can function only when the
ignition key is in the "ON" position. If the
SRS SRI does not come on or illumi-
nates continuously when the ignition key
is turned to "ON", or continuously re-
mains on after flashing for about 6 sec-
onds when the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position, or after the engine is
started, or comes on while driving, the
SRS 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 to
the "LOCK" position or remove the igni-
tion key. Never remove or replace the air
bag related fuse(s) when the ignition key
is in the "ON" position. Failure to heed
this warning will cause the SRS SRI to
illuminate.
FUA1115A
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 and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the airbag immediately
starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain
forward visibility.
CAUTION:When installing a container of liquid air
freshener inside a vehicle, do not place it
near the instrument cluster nor on the in-
strument panel pad surface. If there is any
leakage from the air freshener onto these
areas (instrument cluster, instrument panel
pad or air ventilator), it may damage these
parts. If the liquid from the air freshener
does leak onto these areas, wash them with
water immediately.Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impact
airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the
airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or
the front passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt alone. The
side impact airbags are designed to deploy only
during certain side-impact collisions, depending
on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of
impact. The side impact airbags are not de-
signed to deploy in all side impact situations.
WARNING:o For best protection from the side impact
airbag system and to avoid being injured
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 should
be placed on the steering wheel at the

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 or
child could be severely injured or killed
by an airbag deployment in case of an
accident.
o Modification to SRS components or wir-
ing, including the addition of any kind of
badges to the pad covers or modifica-
tions to the body structure, can adversely
affect SRS performance and lead to pos-
sible injury.
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 affect
the 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, because
any such object could cause harm if the
vehicle is in a crash severe enough 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 SRS
system. Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental firing of the airbags or
by rendering the SRS inoperative.
B240C02A-AAT
SRS Care
o The SRS is virtually maintenance free and
there are no parts you can safely service by
yourself. The entire SRS system must be
inspected by an authorized Hyundai dealer in
10 years after the date that the vehicle was
manufactured.
o Any work on the SRS system, such as re-
moving, installing, repairing, or any work on
the steering wheel must be performed by a
qualified Hyundai technician. Improper han-
dling of the airbag system may result in
serious personal injury.

9:00 and 3:00 o'clock positions. The
passenger's arms and hands should be
placed in their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat covers.
o Use of seat covers could prevent or re-
duce 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.
o Do not place any objects (an umbrella,
bag, etc.) between the front door and the
front seat. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause injury if
the supplemental side impact airbag in-
flates.
o To prevent unexpected deployment of
the side impact airbag that may result in
personal injury,avoid impact to the side
airbag sensor when the ignition key is
on.
