 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

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 aggra-
vate 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.
 The SRS can function only when the ignition switch is in the ON 
position. If the SRS air bag warn- 
ing light does not illuminate, con- 
tinuously remains on after illumi-
nating for about 6 seconds when 
the ignition switch is turned to 
the ON position, or after the
engine is started, or comes on
while driving, the SRS is not 
working properly. If this occurs, 
have your vehicle immediately
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)(Continued) 
 Before you replace a fuse or dis-connect a battery terminal, turn 
the ignition switch to the LOCK
position and remove the ignition
key. Never remove or replace the 
air bag related fuse(s) when the 
ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion. Failure to heed this warning 
will cause the SRS air bag warn- 
ing light to illuminate.
