Features of your vehicle
When an adult is seated in the front pas-
senger seat, if the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator is on, turn the igni-
tion key to "LOCK" and ask the passen-
ger to sit properly (sitting upright with the
seat back in an upright position, centered
on the seat cushion with their seat belt
on, legs comfortably extended and their
feet on the floor). Restart the engine and
have the person remain in that position.
This will allow the system to detect the
person and to enable the passenger air
bag.If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indi-
cator is still on, ask the passenger to
move to the rear seat.
✽ ✽
NOTICEThe "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator illuminates for about 4 sec-
onds after the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position or after the engine is
started. If the front passenger seat is
occupied, the occupant classification
sensor will then classify the front pas-
senger after several more seconds.

Proper position
WARNING
Do not allow a passenger to ride in
the front seat when the “PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF” indicator is illu-
minated, because the air bag will
not deploy in the event of a crash. If
the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator remains illuminated after
the passenger repositions them-
selves properly and the car is
restarted, Hyundai recommends
that passenger move to the rear
seat because the passenger's front
air bag will not deploy.
Front seat passengers must stay
properly seated to avoid serious
injury from a deploying air bag.
WARNING
Do not put a heavy load in the front
passenger seatback pocket or on
the front passenger seat. Do not
hang onto the front passenger seat.
Do not hang any items such as
seatback table on the front passen-
ger seatback. Do not place feet on
the front passenger seatback. Do
not place any items under the front
passenger seat. Any of these could
interfere with proper sensor opera-
tion.

Features of your vehicle90 3
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 vehicle92 3The side impact air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side-impact
collisions, depending on the crash sever-
ity, angle, speed and point of impact. The
side impact air bags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact situations.
(Continued)
Do not install any accessories on
the side or near the side impact
air bag.
Do not place any objects over the
air bag or between the air bag and
yourself.
Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag, etc.) between the
front door and the front seat.
Such objects may become dan-
gerous projectiles and cause
injury if the supplemental side
impact air bag inflates.
To prevent unexpected deploy-
ment of the side impact air bag
that may result in personal injury,
avoid impact to the side impact
sensor when the ignition key is
on.
WARNING
The side impact air bag is supple-
mental to the driver's and the pas-
senger'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 air bags deploy
only in certain side impact condi-
tions severe enough to cause sig-
nificant injury to the vehicle occu-
pants.
For best protection from the side
impact air bag system and to
avoid being injured by the deploy-
ing side impact air bag, 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.
Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
Use of seat covers could reduce
or prevent the effectiveness of
the system.
