Safety features of your vehicle
(Continued)
• No objects should be placed
over or near the air bag mod-
ules on the steering wheel,
instrument panel, driver’s side
knee bolster, 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 deploy.
• Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring or other com-
ponents of the SRS system.
Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental deployment
of the air bags or by rendering
the SRS inoperative.
• If the SRS air bag warning
light “ ”remains illuminat-
ed while the vehicle is being
driven, we recommend that
the system be replaced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)(Continued)
• ABC – Always Buckle
Children in the back seat. It is
the safest place for children of
any age to ride.
• Front and side impact air bags
can injure occupants improp-
erly positioned.
• Move your seat as far back as
practical from the front air
bags, while still maintaining
control of the vehicle.
• You and your passengers
should never sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the air
bags. Improperly positioned
drivers and passengers can
be severely injured by inflat-
ing air bags.
• Never lean against the door or
center console – always sit in
an upright position.
(Continued)(Continued)
• Air bags can only be used
once - we recommend that the
system be replaced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• The SRS is designed to deploy
the front air bags only when an
impact is sufficiently severe
and when the impact angle is
less than 30° from the forward
longitudinal axis of the vehi-
cle. Additionally, the air bags
will only deploy once. Seat
belts must be worn at all times.
• Front air bags are not intended
to deploy in side-impact, rear-
impact or rollover crashes. In
addition, front air bags will not
deploy in frontal crashes
below the deployment thresh-
old.
• A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front
seat. The infant or child could
be severely injured or killed by
an air bag deployment in case
of an accident.

Safety features of your vehicle
Your vehicle is equipped with a side
impact air bag in each front and out-
board rear seat. The purpose of the
air bag is to provide the vehicle's
driver and/or the front and outboard
rear passengers with additional pro-
tection than that offered by the seat
belt alone.
• The side impact air bags are
designed to deploy during certain
side-impact collisions, depending
on the crash severity, angle, speed
and point of impact.
• The side impact air bags are not
designed to deploy in all side
impact.
WARNING
• The side impact air bag is sup-
plemental to the driver’s and
the passengers seat belt sys-
tems 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 conditions severe
enough to cause significant
injury to the vehicle occupants.
• For best protection from the
side impact air bag system and
to avoid being injured by the
deploying side impact air bag,
both front and all rear (if
equipped) seat occupants
should sit in an upright posi-
tion with the seat belt properly
fastened. The driver's hands
should be placed on the steer-
ing wheel at the 9:00 and 3:00
positions. The passenger’ arms
and hands should be placed on
their laps.
• Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
(Continued)
WARNING
Do not allow the passengers to
lean their heads or bodies onto
doors, put their arms on the
doors, stretch their arms out of
the window, or place objects
between the doors and passen-
gers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.
(Continued)
• Use of seat covers could
reduce or prevent the effective-
ness of the system.
• 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 door and the seat. Such
objects may become danger-
ous 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 igni-
tion switch is on.
• If the seat or seat cover is dam-
aged, we recommend that the
system be serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

SRS Care
The 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 when you turn the ignition
ON, or if it continuously remains on,
we recommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Improper handling of the SRS sys-
tem may result in serious personal
injury.WARNING
• Modification to SRS compo-
nents or wiring, including the
addition of any kind of badges
to the pad covers or modifica-
tions to the body structure,
can adversely affect SRS per-
formance and lead to possible
injury.
• For cleaning the air bag pad
covers, 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 deploy-
ment of the system.
• No objects should be placed
over or near the air bag mod-
ules 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)
(Continued)
• If the air bags inflate, they
must be replaced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring, or other
components of the SRS sys-
tem. Doing so could result in
injury, due to accidental infla-
tion of the air bags or by ren-
dering the SRS inoperative.
• If components of the air bag
system must be discarded, or
if the vehicle must be
scrapped, certain safety pre-
cautions must be observed.
An authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er knows these precautions
and can give you the neces-
sary information. Failure to
follow these precautions and
procedures could increase
the risk of personal injury.
• If your car was flooded and
has soaked carpeting or water
on the flooring, you shouldn't
try to start the engine; have
the car towed to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

A driver position memory system is
provided to store and recall the driv-
er seat, outside rearview mirrors,
steering wheel position and HUD
(Head-Up Display) height with a sim-
ple button operation. By saving the
desired positions into the system
memory, different drivers can reposi-
tion the driver seat, outside rearview
mirrors, steering wheel and HUD
(Head-Up Display) height based
upon their driving preference. If the
battery is disconnected, the position
memory will be lost and the driving
positions should be restored in the
system.
✽NOTICE

STEERING WHEEL
Power steering
Power steering uses energy from the
engine to assist you in steering the
vehicle. If the engine is off or if the
power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Electronic Hydraulic Power
Steering (EHPS)
EHPS uses an electromotor to assist
you in steering the vehicle. It senses
the vehicle speed and road condition.
If the engine is off or if the power
steering system becomes inoperative,
the vehicle may still be steered, but it
will require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
✽NOTICE
If the power steering drive belt
breaks or if the power steering
pump malfunctions, the steering
effort will greatly increase.
✽NOTICE
If the vehicle is parked for extended
periods outside in cold weather
(below -10°C/14°F), the power steer-
ing may require increased effort
when the engine is first started. This
is caused by increased fluid viscosity
due to the cold weather and does not
indicate a malfunction.
When this happens, increase the
engine RPM by depressing accelera-
tor until the RPM reaches 1,500 rpm
then release or let the engine idle for
two or three minutes to warm up the
fluid.
CAUTION
Never hold the steering wheel
against a stop (extreme right or
left turn) for more than 5 sec-
onds with the engine running.
Holding the steering wheel for
more than 5 seconds in either
position may cause damage to
the power steering pump.
