Driver's Airbag
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supple- mental Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of the system's presenceare the letters "SRS AIR BAG" em- bossed on the airbag pad cover in the steering wheel and printed on thepassenger's side front panel pad above the glove box. The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in the centre of the steering wheel and thepassenger's side front panel above the glove box. The purpose of the SRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or thefront passenger with additional protec- B240A01TB-EAT SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM
tion than that offered by the seat belt system alone, in case of a frontal im- pact of sufficient severity. NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS on the labels provided on the back of the sun visor and in theglove 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 seatbelt systems and is not a substi- tute for them. Therefore your seat belts must be worn at all timeswhile the vehicle is in motion. In addition, the airbags deploy only in certain frontal impact condi-tions severe enough to likely cause significant injury to the vehicle occupants.
o Do not attempt to service or re-pairer the pre-tensioner seat belt system in any manner.
o Improper handling of the pre-
tensioner seat belt assemblies, andfailure to heed the warnings to not strike, modify, inspect, replace, service or repairer the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies may lead to improper operation or in- advertent activation and seriousinjury.
o Always wear the seat belts when
driving or travelling in a motorvehicle.
FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 31
o For maximum safety protection in
all types of crashes, all occupants including the driver should always wear their seat belts whether ornot an airbag is also provided at their seating position to minimize the risk of severe injury or death inthe event of a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close to the airbag while the vehicle is in mo-tion.
o The SRS airbag system must de-
ploy very rapidly to provide pro-tection in a crash. If an occupant is out of position because of not wearing a seat belt, the airbag mayforcefully contact the occupant causing serious or fatal injuries.
The SRS consists of the following com- ponents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- 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-frontalimpact is severe enough to require airbag deployment. B240B03A-DAT SRS Components and Functions

Rear impact
Side Impact Rollover
o The SRS is designed to deploy the
airbags only when an impact is sufficiently severe and when theimpact angle is less than 30° from the forward longitudinal axis of the vehicle and will not deploy inside, rear or rollover impacts. Additionally, the airbags will only deploy once. Thus, seat belts mustbe worn at all times.
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear-impactor rollover crashes. In addition, airbags will not normally deploy in frontal crashes below the de-ployment threshold speed.

B240B03L-D
The airbag modules are located both in the centre of the steering wheel and in the front passenger's panel above the glove box. When the SRSCM detects aconsiderable impact to the front of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy the airbags.
Passenger's Airbag
HTB204-D
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly into the pad covers will sepa- rate under pressure from the expansion of the airbags. Further opening of thecovers 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 mo-tion, thus reducing the risk of head or chest injury.
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blinkfor about 6 seconds after the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position or after the engine is started, after whichthe SRI should go out.

B240C01HP 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 se- verely injured by an airbag de-ployment in case of an accident.
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rear-
ward facing restraint on a seatprotected by an airbag in front of it!
o Modification to SRS components or wiring, including the addition of any kind of badges to the padcovers or modifications to the body structure, can adversely affect SRS performance and leadto possible injury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad cov-
ers, use only a soft, dry cloth orone which has been moistened with plain water. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect theairbag covers and proper deploy- ment of the system.
B240C02Y-GAT SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenance-free and there are no parts you can safelyservice by yourself. The entire SRS system must be inspected by an au- thorized Hyundai dealer in 10 yearsafter the date that the vehicle was manufactured. Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing, repairering, or any work on the steering wheel must be performed by a qualified Hyundai tech-nician. Improper handling of the SRS system may result in serious personal injury.
o Do not place any objects (an um-
brella, bag, etc.) between the frontdoor and the front seat. Such ob- jects may become dangerous pro- jectiles and cause injury if thesupplemental side impact air bag inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deploy- ment of the side air impact bagthat may result in personal injury, avoid impact to the side airbagsensor when the ignition key is on.

SRS (Airbag) SERVICE REMINDER INDICATOR
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) comes on and flashes for about 6 seconds after the ignition key is turnedto the "ON" position or after the engine is started, after which it will go out. This light also comes on when the SRS is not working properly. If the SRI does not come on, or continu-ously remains on after flashing for about 6 seconds when you turned the ignition key to the "ON" position or started theengine, or if it comes on while driving, have the SRS inspected by a Hyundai authorised repairer. B260P02Y-EAT
ABS SERVICE REMINDER INDICATOR(SRI) (Not all models)
When the key is turned to the "ON" position, the Anti-Lock Brake System SRI will come on and then go off in a fewseconds. If the ABS SRI remains on, comes on while driving, or does not come on when the key is turned to the"ON" position, this indicates that there may be a problem with the ABS. If this occurs, have your vehiclechecked by your Hyundai authorised repairer as soon as possible. The nor- mal braking system will still be opera-tional, but without the assistance of the anti-lock brake system. SB210E1-E
OVERDRIVE OFF INDI CATORLIGHT(Not all models)
When the overdrive (4th gear) switch is turned off and the operation of overdrive (4th gear) is cancelled, the overdrivewarning light (O/D OFF) will be illumi- nated. When the switch is at the on position, the gearbox will operate in thenormal fully automatic mode and the warning light will be extinguished. B260D01A-AAT Turn Signal Indicator Lights
The blinking green arrows on the instru- ment panel show the direction indicated by the turn signals. If the arrow comeson but does not blink, blinks more rapidly than normal, or does not illumi- nate at all, a malfunction in the turnsignal system is indicated. Your Hyundai authorised repairerer should be consulted for repairers.
! WARNING:
If the both ABS SRI and Parking Brake/Brake fluid level warning lightsremain "ON" or come on while driv- ing, there may be a problem with E.B.D (Electronic brake force distri-bution). If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and have your vehicle checked byyour Hyundai authorised repairer as soon as possible.
