CAUTION
Do not install or place any acces-
sories (drink holder, cassette
holder, sticker, etc.) on the front
passenger's panel above the
glove box in a vehicle with a pas-
senger's air bag. Such objects
may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if the pas-
senger's air bag inflates.
When installing a container of liq-
uid air freshener inside the vehi-
cle, do not place it near the instru-
ment cluster nor on the instru-
ment panel surface.
(Continued)
(Continued)
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
If an air bag deploys, there may
be a loud noise followed by a fine
dust released in the vehicle.
These conditions are normal and
are not hazardous - the air bags
are packed in this fine powder.
The dust generated during air bag
deployment may cause skin or
eye irritation as well as aggravate
asthma for some persons.
Always wash all exposed skin
areas thoroughly with lukewarm
water and a mild soap after an
accident in which the air bags
were deployed.

CAUTION
If the occupant classification sys-
tem is not working properly, the
SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument panel will illuminate
because the passenger's front air
bags are connected with the occu-
pant classification system. If there
is a malfunction of the occupant
classification system, the "PAS-
SENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator
will not illuminate and the passen-
ger's front air bags will inflate in
frontal impact crashes even if there
is no occupant in the front passen-
ger's seat. If the SRS air bag warn-
ing light does not illuminate when
the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position, remains illuminated
after approximately 6 seconds
when the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position, or if it illuminates
while the vehicle is being driven,
have an authorized Hyundai dealer
inspect the occupant classification
system and the SRS air bag system
as soon as possible.
(Continued)
Do not modify or replace the front
passenger seat. Don't place any-
thing on or attach anything such
as a blanket or after market seat
heater to the front passenger
seat. This can adversely affect the
occupant classification system.
Do not sit on sharp objects such
as tools when occupying the front
passenger seat. This can adverse-
ly affect the occupant classifica-
tion system.
Do not use accessory seat covers
on the front seats.
(Continued)
WARNING
Even though your vehicle is
equipped with the occupation
classification system, never
install a child restraint system in
the front passenger's seat. A
deploying air bag can forcefully
strike a child resulting in serious
injuries or death. Any child under
13 years of age should ride in the
rear seat. Children too large for
child restraints should use the
available lap/shoulder belts. No
matter what type of crash, chil-
dren of all ages are safer when
restrained in the rear seat.
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicator is illuminated
when the front passenger's seat
is occupied by an adult and
he/she sits properly (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), have
that person sit in the rear seat.

Features of your vehicle94 3SRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and so there are no parts you can safely
service by yourself. If the SRS "AIR BAG"
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 per-
formed by a qualified Hyundai technician.
Improper handling of the SRS system
may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING
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 severely injured by an
air bag deployment in case of an
accident.
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 performance and lead
to possible injury.
For cleaning the air bag pad cov-
ers, use only a soft, dry cloth or
one which has been moistened
with plain water. Solvents or
cleaners could adversely affect
the air bag covers and proper
deployment of the system.
No objects should be placed over
or near the air bag modules on the
steering wheel, instrument panel,
and the front passenger's panel
above the glove box, because any
such object could cause harm if the
vehicle is in a crash severe enough
to cause the air bags to inflate.

(Continued)
If the air bags inflate, they must
be replaced by an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring, or other components
of the SRS system. Doing so
could result in injury, due to acci-
dental inflation of the air bags or
by rendering the SRS inoperative.
If components of the air bag sys-
tem must be discarded, or if the
vehicle must be scrapped, certain
safety precautions must be
observed. Your Hyundai dealer
knows these precautions and can
give you the necessary informa-
tion. Failure to follow these pre-
cautions and procedures could
increase the risk of personal
injury.
If your car was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or water on
flooring, you shouldn't try to start
the engine; have the car towed to
an authorized Hyundai dealer.

Emission Control System
Malfunction Indicator Light
( ) illuminated may cause
damage to the emission control
systems which could effect dri-
vability and/or fuel economy.
