WARNING:
o The space between the occupant and
the curtain airbag must never be
occupied by children, passengers or
pets. Occupants should never lean
out or have any parts of their body
protruding from the window while the
engine is running.
o Do not move the sun visor out to
cover the side window if there is an
item attached to it such as a garage
door remote control, pens, air fresh-
eners or the like. These objects could
cause injury if the Curtain Airbag is
deployed.
o Where sun blinds are fitted to the
rear doors, these must not obstruct
or impair the airbag in any way.
o Do not install any accessories or
children’s toys in the Curtain Airbag
deployment zones, as this may im-
pair the operation of the system or
throw parts of them into the vehicle
cabin causing injury to occupants if
the system is deployed.
B990C01JM-GATCurtain Airbag (If Installed)Curtain airbags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors. They are designed to help
protect the heads of the front seat occu-
pants and the rear outboard seat occu-
pants in certain side impact collisions.
The curtain airbags are designed to de-
ploy only during certain side impact col-
lisions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and impact. The curtain
airbags are not designed to deploy in all
side impact situations, collisions from the
front or rear of the vehicle or in most
rollover situations.

WARNING:
o Before installing child restraints ,
always refer to “Child Restraint Sys-
tem” to ensure correct installation
and occupant protection is maxi-
mized.
o Make sure that the occupant does
not have any body parts (head, arms
& legs) protruding outside the re-
straining system. An inflating airbag
that strikes an infant child on the
head could cause serious injury.
o Ensure the opening for the Curtain
Airbag System remains unob-
structed at all times, so that the
airbags can inflate properly if needed.Important Safety Notes for Curtain
Airbag SystemsFollowing is a number of safety points
concerning this system which should al-
ways be observed to ensure risk of injury
is reduced in an accident.

B240C02NF-AATSRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and so there are no parts you can safely
service by yourself. If the SRS "AIRBAG"
warning light does not illuminate, or con-
tinuously remains on, have your vehicle
immediately inspected by your Hyundai
dealer.
Any work on the SRS system, such as
removing, installing, repairing, or any work
on the steering wheel must be performed
by a qualified Hyundai technician. Im-
proper handling of the SRS system may
result in serious personal injury.

!
WARNING:
o To maintain the integrity of the Cur-
tain Airbag system, any work, re-
moval or installation of the airbag
and associated components (such
as roof lining and side trims) should
always be performed by an autho-
rized Hyundai dealer.
WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger seat po-
sition.
A child restraint system must never
be placed in the front seat. The infant
or child could be severely injured by
an airbag deployment in case of an
accident.
o Modification to SRS components or
wiring, including the addition of any
kind of badges to the pad covers or
modifications to the body structure,
can adversely affect SRS perfor-
mance and lead to possible injury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers,
use only a soft, dry cloth or one
which has been moistened with plain
water. Solvents or cleaners could
adversely affect the airbag covers
and proper deployment of the sys-
tem.
