B240C02A-DAT 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 an authorised Hyundai dealer in 10 yearsafter the date that the car was manu- factured. Any work on the air bag system, such as removing, installing, repairing, or any work on the steering wheel mustbe performed by a qualified Hyundai technician. Improper handling of the airbag system may result in seriouspersonal injury.
o Use of seat covers could reduce or
prevent the effectiveness of thesystem.
o Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side impactairbag.
o Do not use excessive force on the side of the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the
airbag or between the airbag and yourself.
o Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag, etc.) between thefront door and the front seat. Such objects may become dangerousprojectiles and cause injury if the supplemental side impact air bag inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deploy- ment of the side impact air bagthat may result in personal in-jury, avoid impact to the side airbag sensor when the ignition key is on.

o Do not install a child restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger seat position. A child restraint systemmust never be placed in the front seat. The infant or baby could be severely injured by an airbag de-ployment in case of an accident.
o If components of the air bag sys-
tem must be discarded, or if thevehicle must be scrapped, cer- tain safety precautions must be observed. Your Hyundai dealerknows these precautions and can give you the necessary informa- tion.Failure to follow these precau- tions and procedures could in- crease the risk of personal in-jury.

inform the new owner of theseimportant points and make cer- tain that this manual is trans- ferred to the new owner togetherwith the vehicle.
o If your car was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or water onflooring, you shouldn't try to start engine; have the car towed to authorised Hyundai dealer.o For cleaning the horn pad, useonly a soft, dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plainwater. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect the airbag cover and proper deployment of thesystem.
