ADVANCED SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (SRS)
B240A01E-AAT
Your Hyundai is equipped with an Advanced
Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System. The
indications of the system's presence are the
letters "SRS AIRBAG" embossed on the airbag
pad cover in the steering 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 thanthat offered by the seat belt system alone, in
case of a frontal impact of sufficient severity.
The advanced SRS uses a collection of sen-
sors to gather information about the driver's and
front passenger's seat position, the driver's and
front passenger's seat belt usage and impact
severity.
The driver's and front passenger's seat position
sensors, which are installed on the seat track,
determine if the seats are fore or aft of a
reference position. Similarly, the seat belt usage
sensors determine if the driver and front
passenger's seat belts are fastened. These
sensors provide the ability to control the SRS
deployment's pressure based on how close the
driver's seat is to the steering wheel, how close
the passenger's seat is to the instrument panel
and whether or not the seat belts are fastened,
and how severe is impact.
The advanced airbags offer the ability to control
the airbag inflation with two pressure levels. A
first stage pressure level is provided for mod-
erate-severity impacts. A second stage pres-
sure level is provided for more severe impacts.
Your Hyundai is equipped with an Occupant
Classification
® system in the front passenger's
seat. The Occupant Classification® system de-
tects the presence of a passenger in the front
passenger's seat and will turn off the front
passenger's airbag under certain conditions.
For more detail, see page 1-37.
B240A01E
Driver's AirbagCAUTION:If the seat position sensor is not working
properly, the SRS airbag warning light on
the instrument panel will illuminate even if
there is no malfunction of the SRS airbag
system because the SRS airbag is con-
nected with the seat position sensor. If the
SRS airbag warning light does not illumi-
nate when the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position, if it remains illuminated after
blinking for approximately 6 seconds, or if
it illuminates while the vehicle is being
driven, have an authorized Hyundai dealer
inspect the seat position sensor and the
SRS airbag system as soon as possible.
!
WARNING:o Modification to the seat structure can
adversely affect the seat position sensor
and cause the airbag to deploy at a
different pressure level than should be
provided.
o Do not place any objects that may cause
magnetic fields near the front seat. These
can cause a malfunction of the seat
position sensor.

!WARNING:o Ignoring the SRS indicator light can re-
sult in serious or fatal injury if the airbags,
Occupant Classification
® system or pre-
tensioners do not work properly. Have
your car checked by a dealer as soon as
possible if the SRS warning light alerts
you to a potential problem.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the front
airbags only when an impact is suffi-
ciently severe and when the impact angle
is less than 30° from the forward longi-
tudinal axis of the vehicle and will not
deploy in side, rear or rollover impacts.
Additionally, the airbags will only de-
ploy once. Thus, seat belts must be worn
at all times.

Rear impact
Side Impact
Rollover
NOTE:o Be sure to read information about the
SRS on the labels provided on the back-
side of the sun visor and in the glove box.
o Advanced airbags are combined with
pre-tensioner seat belts to help provide
enhanced occupant protection in fron-
tal crashes. Front airbags are not in-
tended to deploy in light collisions in
which protection can be provided by the
pre-tensioner seat belt.
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 certain frontal impact conditions
severe enough to cause significant in-
jury to the vehicle occupants.
o Sitting too close to a front airbag can
result in serious or fatal injury if the front
airbags inflate. Always sit as far back
from airbags as possible.o The driver should sit back as far as
possible while still maintaining control
of the vehicle. If you are sitting too close
to the airbag, it can cause death or seri-
ous injury when it inflates.
WARNING:
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy
in side-impact, rear-impact or rollover
crashes. In addition, airbags will not
deploy in frontal crashes below the de-
ployment threshold.

!WARNING:
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.
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 deployment of the
airbags or by rendering the SRS inopera-
tive.
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 (teen-
agers and older) must ride in the front
seat, make sure they are always properly
belted and the seat is moved back as far
as possible.o For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, all occupants includ-
ing the driver should always wear their
seat belts whether or not an airbag is
also provided at their seating position to
minimize 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 Sitting improperly or out of position can
result in serious or fatal injury in a crash.
All occupants should sit upright in their
seats with their feet on the floor until the
vehicle is parked and the ignition key is
removed.
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 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 or pre-tensioner seat
belt deployment.
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.
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 front airbags.
B240B01L

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, reducing the
risk of head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the airbag immediately
starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain
forward visibility.

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
baby could be severely injured by an
airbag deployment in case of an acci-
dent.
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 ad-
versely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible 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
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 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.
o If components of the airbag system must
be discarded, or if the vehicle must be
scrapped, certain safety precautions
must be observed. Your Hyundai dealer
knows these precautions and can give
you the necessary information. Failure
to follow these precautions and proce-
dures could increase the risk of personal
injury.
o If you sell your vehicle, make certain that
this manual is transferred to the new
owner.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked
carpeting or water on the floor, you
shouldn't try to start the engine; have
the car towed to an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
