WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-
tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn correctly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the
correct position.
3. Be sure you and your passengers always
wear seat belts and wear them properly.
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.
The pre-tensioners will not be activated
if the seat belts are not being worn at the
time of the collision.
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 com-
partment. These are normal operating
conditions 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
all exposed skin areas thoroughly after
an accident in which the pre-tensioner
seat belts were activated.
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the
SRS airbag is connected with the pre-
tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warn-
ing light on the instrument panel will
illuminate for approximately 6 seconds
after the ignition key has been turned to
the "ON" position, and then it should
turn off.
o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not work-
ing properly, this warning light will illu-
minate even if there is no malfunction of
the SRS airbag. If the SRS airbag warning
light does not illuminate when the igni-
tion key is turned to "ON", or if it blinks
for a second and remains illuminated
after illuminating for approximately 6
seconds, or if it illuminates while the
vehicle is being driven, please have an
authorized Hyundai dealer inspect the
pre-tensioner seat belt or SRS airbag
system as soon as possible. 4

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, front airbags will
not deploy in frontal crashes below the
deployment threshold.
!
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. 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 Ignoring the SRS airbag warning light
can result 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 airbag 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. The front
airbags will not deploy in side, rear or
rollover impacts. Additionally, the
airbags will only deploy once. Seat belts
must be worn at all times.
!
WARNING:
o Modification to the seat structure can
adversely affect the seat track position
sensor and cause the airbag to deploy at
a different level than should be pro-
vided.
o Do not place any objects underneath the
front seats as they could damage the
seat track position sensor or interfere
with the occupant classification sys-
tem.
o Do not place any objects that may cause
magnetic fields near the front seat. These
may cause a malfunction of the seat
track position sensor.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 collisions in which
sufficient protection can be provided by
the pre-tensioner seat belt.
o If you are considering modification of
your vehicle due to a disability, please
contact the Hyundai Customer Assis-
tance Center at 1-800-633-5151.

o The SRS can function only when the
ignition key is in the "ON" position. If the
SRS "AIRBAG" warning light does not
illuminate, or continuously remains on
after illuminating for about 6 seconds
when the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position, or after the engine is
started, comes on while driving, the SRS
is not working properly. If this occurs,
have your vehicle immediately inspect-
ed by your Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or disconnect
a battery terminal, turn the ignition key
to the "LOCK" position and remove the
ignition key. Never remove or replace the
airbag related fuse(s) when the ignition
key is in the "ON" position. Failure to
heed this warning will cause the SRS
"AIRBAG" warning light to illuminate. Passenger's Front Airbag
CAUTION:
o 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 airbag. Such objects may
become dangerous projectiles and cause
injury if the passenger's airbag inflates.
o When installing a container of liquid air
freshener inside the vehicle, do not place
it near the instrument cluster nor on the
instrument panel surface. If there is any
leakage from the air freshener onto these
areas (instrument cluster, instrument

panel 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.
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. Wash all exposed skin
areas thoroughly with lukewarm water
and a mild soap after an accident in
which the airbags were deployed.
WARNING:
NOTE:
Your vehicle's Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem Control Module is equipped a record-
ing device which may record the use of the
seat belt restraint system by the driver and
front passenger in certain collisions.

cator will be turned off and the front passenger's
airbag will be able to inflate, if necessary, in
frontal crashes.
You will find the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator on the center facia panel. This system
detects the conditions 1~4 in the following table
and activates or deactivates front passenger
airbags based on these conditions.
Condition and operation in the front pas-
senger occupant classification system*1) The system judges a person of adult size as
an adult. When a smaller adult sits in the front
passenger seat, the system may recognize
him/her as a child depending on his/her
physique and posture.
*2) Do not allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat. When a larger child who
has outgrown a child restraint system sits in
the front passenger seat, the system may
recognize him/her as an adult depending on
his/her physique or posture.
*3) Never install a child restraint system on the
front passenger seat.

B990A01NF-AATOCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMYour vehicle is equipped with an occupant
classification system in the front passenger's
seat.
The Occupant Classification system is de-
signed to detect the presence of a properly-
seated front passenger and determine if the
passenger's front airbag should be enabled
(may inflate) or not. The driver's front airbag is
not affected or controlled by the Occupant
Classification system.
If the front passenger seat is occupied by a
person that the system determines to be of adult
size, and he/she sits properly (sitting upright
with the seatback in an upright position, cen-
tered on the seat cushion with their seat belt on,

WARNING:
Do not do any of the following. Placing
weight on the front passenger's seat or
sitting out-of-correct position adversely
affects occupant classification system
operation.

WARNING:
o Do not modify or replace the front pas-
senger seat. Don't place anything on or
attach anything such as a blanket or
after market seat heater to the front
passenger seat. This can adversely af-
fect the occupant classification system.
o Do not sit on sharp objects such as tools
when occupying the front passenger
seat. This can adversely affect the occu-
pant classification system.
o Do not use accessory seat covers on the
front seats.
o Accident statistics show that children
are safer if they are restrained in the rear,
as opposed to the front seat. It is recom-
mended that child restraints be secured
in a rear seat, including an infant riding
in a rear-facing infant seat, a child riding
in a forward-facing child seat and an
older child riding in a booster seat.
!
WARNING:
o A smaller-stature adult who is not seated
correctly (for example: seat excessively
reclined, leaning on the center console,
or hips shifted forward in the seat) can
cause a condition where the advanced
frontal airbag system senses less weight
than if the occupant were seated prop-
erly (sitting upright with the seatback in
an upright position, centered on the seat
cushion with their seat belt on, legs
comfortably extended and their feet on
the floor). This condition can result in an
adult potentially being misclassified and
illumination of the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator.
B990B04Y-AATSide Impact Airbag (If installed)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, depend-
ing on the crash severity, angle, speed and point
of impact. The side impact airbags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact situations.

!
o To prevent unexpected deployment of
the side impact airbag that may result in
personal injury, avoid impact to the side
impact sensor when the ignition key is
on.
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
properly fastened. The driver's hands
should be placed on the steering wheel
at the 9:00 and 3:00 positions. The
passenger's arms and hands should be
placed on their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat covers.
o Use of seat covers could reduce or pre-
vent 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
inflates.
WARNING:
WARNING:
o The side impact airbag is supplemental
to the driver's and the passenger's 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 side impact conditions severe
enough to cause significant injury to the
vehicle occupants.
