side, rear or rollover impacts. Additionally, the airbags will onlydeploy once. Thus, seat belts must be worn at all times.
o Front airbags are not intended to
deploy in light collisions in whichprotection can be provided by the seat belt alone.
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear-im-pact or rollover crashes. In addi-tion, airbags will not normally deploy in frontal crashes below the deployment threshold speed. o For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, all occu- pants including the driver should always wear their seat beltswhether or not an airbag is also provided at their seating posi- tion to minimize the risk of se-vere injury or death in the event of a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close to the airbagwhilst the vehicle is in motion.
o The SRS airbag system must
deploy very rapidly to provideprotection in a crash. If an occu- pant is out of position because of not wearing a seat belt, theairbag may forcefully contact the occupant causing serious or fatal injuries.

Rollover B240B01HP-EAT SRS Components and Functions The SRS consists of the following com- ponents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- Knee Bolster
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator(SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elements whilst the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontal or near-frontalimpact is severe enough to require airbag deployment.

The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blinkfor approximately 6 seconds after the ignition key is turned to the "ON" posi- tion or after the engine is started, afterwhich the SRI should go out.
Upon deployment, tear seams moldeddirectly into the pad covers will sepa- rate under pressure 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 thedriver's or the passenger's forward mo-
tion, thus reducing the risk of head or chest injury. After complete inflation, the airbag im- mediately starts deflating, enabling thedriver to maintain forward visibility.
The airbag modules are located both inthe centre of the steering wheel and inthe front passenger's panel above the glove box. When the SRSCM detects a considerable impact to the front of thevehicle, it will automatically deploy the airbags.

CAUTION:
When installing a container of liquid air freshener inside a vehicle, do not place it near the instrument cluster not on the instrument panel padsurface. If there is any leakage from the air freshener onto these areas (instrument cluster, instrument panelpad or air ventilator), it may damage these parts. If the liquid from the air freshener does leak onto these ar-eas, wash them with water immedi- ately.

!WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dust will be released throughout thevehicle. These conditions are normal and are not hazardous. However, the fine dust generatedduring airbag deployment may cause skin irritation. Be sure to wash your hands and face thor-oughly with lukewarm 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 not flash, or continuously remains on after flashing for about 6 secondswhen the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position or after the en- gine is started, or comes on whilstdriving, the SRS is not working properly. If this occurs, have your vehicle immediately inspected byyour Hyundai authorised repairer.
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. B240C02HP-EAT SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenance-free and so there are no parts you cansafely service by yourself. The entire SRS system must be inspected by a Hyundai authorised repairer 10 yearsafter the date that the vehicle was manufactured. Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing, repairing, or any work on the steering wheel must beperformed by a qualified Hyundai tech- nician. Improper handling of the SRS system may result in serious personalinjury.

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 approximately seconds. If the ABS SRIremains on, comes on whilst driving, or does not come on when the key is turned to the "ON" position, this indi-cates that there may be a problem with the ABS. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by your Hyundai authorisedrepairer as soon as possible. The nor- mal braking system will still be opera- tional, but without the assistance of theanti-lock brake system.

Low Oil Pressure Warn- ing Light
CAUTION:
If the oil pressure warning light stays on whilst the engine is running, se- rious engine damage may result. The oil pressure warning light comeson whenever there is insufficient oil pressure. In normal operation, it should come on when the ignitionswitch is turned on, then go out when the engine is started. If the oil pressure warning light stayson whilst the engine is running, there is a serious malfunction. If this happens, stop the car as soonas it is safe to do so, turn off the engine and check the oil level. If the oil level is low, fill engine oil to theproper level and start the engine again. If the light stays on with the engine running, turn the engine offimmediately. In any instance where the oil light stays on when the engine is running, the engine should bechecked by a Hyundai authorised repairer before the car is driven again.
WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS
B260D01A-AAT Turn Signal Indicator Lights
The blinking green arrows on the in- strument panel show the direction indi-cated by the turn signals. If the arrow comes on but does not blink, blinks more rapidly than normal, or does notilluminate at all, a malfunction in the turn signal system is indicated. Your Hyundai authorised repairer should beconsulted for repairs.
The high beam indicator light comes on whenever the headlights are switched to the high beam or flash position. WARNING:
If both ABS SRI and Parking Brake/ Low brake fluid level warning lights remain "ON" or come on whilst driv- ing, there may be a problem withE.B.D. (Electronic brake force distri- bution). If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and have your vehicle checkedby your Hyundai authorised repairer as soon as possible.

Parking Brake/ Low Brake Fluid LevelWarning Light WARNING:
In the event of problems being sus- pected with the braking system, theadvice of the nearest Hyundai authorised repairer must be sought before the vehicle is driven. Drivingthe vehicle with either an electrical or hydraulic braking system defect may be dangerous, resulting in acci-dent or personal injury. Warning Light Operation The parking brake/low brake fluid level warning light will be illuminated when-ever the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position irrespective of whether or not the parking brake is applied andmust be extinguished when the engine starts and the parking brake released. If the warning light fails to extinguish orilluminates at any other time, the ve- hicle must be brought to rest in a safe location and the level of brake fluid inthe reservoir checked. If the fluid level is incorrect, fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should beadded. If, after correcting the brake fluid level, the warning light continues to be illuminated, the advice of thenearest Hyundai authorised repairer must be sought before the vehicle is driven again.Your Hyundai is equipped with a di- agonally split dual braking system which will ensure that in the event ofone of the brake circuits becoming defective, approximately fifty per cent of the normal braking performance willbe available.If failure of one of the circuits occurs,the required amount of pedal effort,pedal travel and stopping distance will be increased. Use of the gearbox is recommended to assist in bringing thevehicle to rest. The vehicle must not be driven once brake failure has occurred until the system has been repaired andis functioning normally. The braking system employs a vacuum servo in order that the pedal efforts arereduced. Power for the servo is de- rived from the engine and therefore, in the event of the engine stopping or thevehicle being towed, pedal efforts will be substantially increased.
