!WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate only one time. After acti- vation, 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 as- sembly mechanisms become hotduring activation. Do not touchthe pre-tensioner seat belt as- semblies for several minutes af- ter they have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or re- place the pre-tensioner seat beltsyourself. This must be done byan authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or re- pair the pre-tensioner seat beltsystem in any manner.! CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected with pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warning light on the instrument panel will blink for approximately 6 seconds after the ignition key has been turned to the "ON" position or after the engine is started, and then it should turn off.
o If pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, this warning light will illuminate even if there is no malfunction of the SRS airbag. If the SRS airbag warning light does not blink for about 6 seconds when the ignition key is turned to "ON" or the engine is started, or if it remains illumi- nated after blinking for approxi- mately 6 seconds, or if it illumi- nates while the vehicle is being driven, please have an authorized Hyundai dealer inspect the pre- tensioner seat belts and SRS airbag system as soon as pos- sible.

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.
Upon deployment, tear seams moldeddirectly into the pad covers will sepa- rate under pressure from the expan- sion of the airbags. Further opening ofthe 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 forwardmotion, thus reducing the risk of head or chest injury. After complete inflation, the airbag immediately starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain forward visibility.
The airbag modules are located both in the center of the steering wheel and in the front passenger's panel abovethe glove box. When the SRSCM de- tects a considerable impact to the front of the vehicle, it will automatically de-ploy the airbags.

!WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dust will be released through the ve-hicle. These conditions are nor- mal and are not hazardous. How- ever, the fine dust generated dur-ing airbag deployment may cause skin irritation. Wash your hands and face thoroughly with luke-warm water 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 notflash, or continuously remains on after flashing for about 6 sec- onds when the ignition key isturned to the "ON" position or after the engine is started, comes on while driving, the SRS is notworking properly. If this occurs, have your vehicle immediately inspected by your Hyundaidealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turnthe ignition key to the "LOCK" position or remove the ignition key. Never remove or replace theair bag related fuse(s) when the ignition key is in the "ON" posi- tion. Failure to heed this warningwill cause the SRS SRI to illumi- nate.! CAUTION:
When installing a container of liq- uid air freshener inside the vehicle,do not place it near the instrument cluster nor on the instrument panel surface. If there is any leakage fromthe air freshener onto these areas (Instrument cluster, instrument panel or air ventilator), it may dam-age these parts. If the liquid from the air freshener does leak onto these areas, wash them with waterimmediately. B240B01HP
