FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
1- 30 NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS onthe labels provided on the backside of thesun 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 while the vehicle is inmotion. The airbags deploy only in certainfrontal impact conditions severe enoughto likely cause significant injury to thevehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags only when an impact is sufficiently severeand when the impact angle is less than 30°from the forward longitudinal axis of thevehicle and will not deploy in side, rear orrollover impacts. Additionally, the airbagswill only deploy once. Thus, seat beltsmust be worn at all times.
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in light collisions in which protection canbe provided by the seat belt alone.
o Always wear seat belts when driving or
riding in a motor vehicle.
B240A02Y-AAT SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (If Installed) 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 the
steering 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 center of the steeringwheel and the passenger's side front panel abovethe glove box. The purpose of the SRS is toprovide the vehicle's driver and/or the front pas-senger with additional protection than that of-fered by the seat-belt system alone, in case of afrontal impact of sufficient severity.

Rear impact
Side impact Rollover
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 possi- ble while still maintaining control of thevehicle. If you are sitting too close to theairbag, it can cause death or serious injurywhen it inflates.
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 thevehicle is in a crash severe enough tocause the airbags to deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

The airbag modules are located both in the center of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box. Whenthe SRSCM detects a considerable impact to thefront of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy theairbags.
B240B03L
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 orby rendering the SRS inoperative.
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position. A childrestraint system must never be placed inthe front seat. The infant or child could beseverely injured or killed by an airbagdeployment in case of an accident. Do notallow children to ride in the front passen-ger seat. If older children (teenagers andolder) must ride in the front seat, makesure they are always properly belted andthat the seat is moved back as far aspossible.
o For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occupants including thedriver should always wear their seat beltswhether or not an airbag is also providedat their seating position to minimize therisk of severe injury or death in the eventof a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarilyclose to the airbag while the vehicle is inmotion. B240B02A-AAT SRS Components and Functions
B240B01L
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 elementswhile the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontalor near-frontal impact is severe enough to re-quire airbag deployment. The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blink for about 6 secondsafter the ignition key is turned to the "ON" positionor after the engine is started, after which the SRIshould go out.

WARNING:
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearwardfacing child restraint on a seat protectedby 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 modificationsto the body structure, can adversely affectSRS performance and lead to possibleinjury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use only a soft, dry cloth or one which hasbeen moistened with plain water. Solventsor cleaners could adversely affect theairbag covers and proper deployment ofthe 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 thevehicle is in a crash severe enough tocause 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 Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position.
o A child restraint system must never be placed in the front seat. The infant or childcould be severely injured by an airbagdeployment in case of an accident.
o If components of the airbag system must be discarded, or if the vehicle must bescrapped, certain safety precautions mustbe observed. Your Hyundai dealer knowsthese precautions and can give you thenecessary information. Failure to followthese precautions and procedures couldincrease the risk of personal injury.
o If you sell your vehicle, make certain that this manual is transferred to the newowner. o If your car was flooded and has soaked
carpeting or water on flooring, youshouldn't try to start engine; have the cartowed to authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not replace the bumper or the bumper guard with the one other than the Hyundaigenuine parts. Otherwise, it can adverselyaffect SRS performance and lead to unex-pected injury.

B740D01Y-AAT Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when you first get
in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning sys- tem, keep all windows closed to keep hot airout.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift to a lower gear. This increases engine speed,which in turn increases the speed of the airconditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air conditioning off to avoid the possibility of the engine overheat-ing.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioning is not used regularly, run theair conditioning once every month for a fewminutes. This will help circulate the lubricantsand keep your system in peak operatingcondition.
B760A05A-GAT AIR CONDITIONER FILTER (FOR EVAPORATOR AND BLOWERUNIT) (If installed) The air conditioner filter is located in front of the evaporator unit behind the glove box.It operates to decrease the amount of pollutantsentering the car.To replace the air conditioner filter, refer to thepage 6-15. CAUTION:
o Replace the filter every 20,000 km (12,000
miles) or once a year.If the car is being driven in severe condi-tions such as dusty, rough roads, morefrequent air conditioner filter inspectionsand changes are required.
o When the air flow rate is decreased, it must be checked at authorized dealer.
