SRS components and func- tions
The SRS consists of the following components:
1.Driver's front airbag module
2.Passenger’s front airbag module
3.Driver's pre-tensioner assembly
4.Passenger's pre-tensioner assem-bly
5.SRS control module (SRSCM)
6.Front impact sensors*
* : if equipped When the ignition switch is turned
ON, the SRSCM continually moni-
tors all the SRS components, to
determine whether an impact is
severe enough to deploy an air bagor a pre-tensioner seat belt.
The SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument cluster illuminates for
approximately 6 seconds after turn-
ing ON the ignition switch. Then, it
goes OFF.
When any of the following conditions
occurs, this indicates a SRS mal-
function. We recommend that the
system be inspected by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
The light does not briefly illuminate
after turning ON the ignition switch.
The light remains ON longer than 6 seconds.
The light remains ON, when the vehicle is in motion. The front air bag modules are locat-
ed inside both the steering wheel
and the front panel above the glove
box. When the SRSCM detects a suf-
ficient impact at the frontal part of the
vehicle, it automatically deploys the
front air bags.

To deploy, the pad cover tears apart under pressure of the air-bag inflat-
ing power. Further opening of the
covers then allows full inflation of the
air bags.A fully inflated air bag, in combina-
tion with a properly fastened seat
belt, slows the speed of the driver's
or the front passenger's falling for-
ward, reducing the risk of head/chest
injury. After complete inflation, the air bag
immediately starts deflating,
enabling the driver to maintain for-
ward visibility and the ability to steer
or operate other controls.

Do not install or place any
accessories (i.e. drink holder,
cassette holder, sticker, etc.)
on the front panel above the
glove box, where a front pas-
senger's air bag is installed.
Such accessories may
become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury, when a
front passenger's air baginflates.
Do not install or place a con- tainer of liquid air freshenernear or on the instrument
cluster.

Driver's and front passenger's
air bag (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a sup-
plemental restraint system (air bag)
and lap/shoulder belts for both the
driver and the front passenger. Thepresence of the system is indicated
by the letters, "SRS AIR BAG," which
are embossed on the steering wheel
and the front panel above the glove
box.
The SRS consists of air bags, which
are installed under the pad cover of
the steering wheel and under the
front panel above the glove box.
(Continued)
It may become a dangerous
projectile and cause injury,
when a front passenger's air
bag inflates.
When an air bag deploys,
there may be a loud noise aswell as fine dusts released in
the vehicle. These conditionsare normal and are not haz-
ardous - the air bags are
packed with fine powders. The
dust generated during air bag
deployment may cause
skin/eye irritation as well as
aggravate asthma for some
persons. Always wash all
exposed skin areas thorough-
ly with lukewarm water and amild soap after an accident in
which the air bags were
deployed. (Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
The SRS operates, only after turning ON the ignition
switch. When the SRS air bagwarning light does not illumi-nate after turning ON the igni-
tion switch, when light contin-
uously remains ON longer
than approximately 6 sec-
onds, or when the light
remains ON while driving, the
SRS does not properly oper-
ate.
In this case, we recommend that the system be inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Before replacing a fuse or dis-
connecting a battery terminal,
turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK position and remove
the ignition key. Never remove
or replace the air bag relatedfuse(s) when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS air bag
warning light to illuminate.

■Driver's front air bag

2-32
Safety system of your vehicle
The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that
offered only by the seat belt systemin case of a frontal impact of suffi-
cient severity.Always use seat belts and child
restraints – every trip, every
time, everyone! Air bags inflate
with considerable force and in
the blink of an eye. Seat belts
help keep occupants in proper
position to obtain maximum
benefit from the air bag. Even
with air bags, improperly and
unbelted occupants may be
severely injured when the air
bag inflates. Always follow the
precautions about seat belts, air
bags and occupant safety, as
specified in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious or fatal injuries and receive the
maximum safety benefit from
your restraint system:
Never install a child restraint
or a booster seat in a front
seat to sit a child.
ABC - Always Buckle Children
in a rear seat. It is the safest
place for children of any ages
to ride.

■Front passenger's air bag
(Continued)
Front air bags may injure
occupants, who improperly sit
in a front seat.
Locate your seat in the rear-
most position from the front
air bags, while still maintain-
ing control of the vehicle.
You and your passengers
should never sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the air
bags. Improperly positioned
drivers and passengers may
be severely injured by inflat-
ing air bags.
Never lean against the door or
center console - always sit inan upright position.

No objects should be placed
over or near the air bag mod-ules on the steering wheel,
the instrument cluster, and
the front panel above the
glove box. Such an object maycause harm in a crash of
which impact is severe
enough to deploy an air bag.
Do not modify or disconnect the SRS wires or the SRS
components. Doing so may
result in injury by accidentally
deploying the air bags or by
deactivating the SRS.
When the SRS air bag warning
light remains ON, while driv-
ing, we recommend that the
system be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.(Continued)
(Continued)
Air bags should be used only once - we recommend that the
system be replaced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealerafter an accident.
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 vehicle. Additionally, the
air bags will deploy only once.
Seat belts must and always befastened.
Front air bags do not deploy
in a side-impact, a rear-impact
or a rollover. In addition, front
air bags will not deploy in a
frontal crash of which impact
is below the deploymentthreshold.(Continued)

Why did not my air bag go off in a collision? (Inflation andnon-inflation conditions of the
air bag)
There are many types of acci-
dents in which the air bag
would not inflate to provide
additional protection.
These include rear impacts,
second or third collisions in
multiple impact accidents, as
well as low speed impacts.
(Continued)
A child restraint system must
never be installed in a front
seat. The infant or child may
be severely injured or killed
by a deploying air bag in anaccident.
Children at the age of 12 and
under must always be proper-
ly restrained in a rear seat.
Never allow children to ride in
a front passenger's seat.
When a child at the age of 13
and over sits in a front seat,
he or she must be properlyfastened and the seat shouldbe located in the rearmostposition.
❇
❇ The age requirements
about the child detrainment
differ in each country.
For the maximum protection
in all types of crashes, all
occupants including the driv-
er should always wear their
seat belts, regardless of the
air bag installment in theirseats.
(Continued)
(Continued)This is to minimizethe risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessar-
ily close to the air bag, when
the vehicle is in motion.
Sitting improperly or out of
position may result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. Alloccupants should sit in anupright position with the seat-
back in an upright position,centered on the seat cushion
with their seat belt on, legs
comfortably extended and
their feet rested on the floor
until the vehicle is parked and
the ignition switch is turned
OFF.
The SRS air bag rapidly
inflates to provide Protection
to occupants in a crash. Whenan occupant is out of positionwithout fastening a seat belt,
the air bag may forcefully
strike the occupant, causing
serious or fatal injury.

Air bag collision sensors
(1) SRS control module
(2) Front impact sensor
Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where
air bags or sensors areinstalled.
This may cause unexpected
air bag deployment, resulting
in serious personal injury ordeath.
When the sensor is installed
out of position, the air bags
may deploy in an accident in
which they should not or may
not deploy, causing severe
injury or death.
Therefore, do not attempt to
maintain on or around the air
bag sensor area.
We recommend that the sys-
tem be serviced by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.(Continued)

Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate in a frontal collision depending on an
intensity, a speed or an angles of ofthe front collision.Although the front air bags (driver'sand front passenger's air bags) aredesigned to inflate only in frontal col-
lisions, they also may inflate in other
types of collisions, when a sufficient
impact is detected by the frontimpact.
When the vehicle chassis is impact-
ed by bumps or objects on a rugged
road, the air bags may deploy.
Carefully drive on rugged roads or
off roads to prevent unintended air
bag deployment.
(Continued)
Problems may arise, when the installment angle of the sen-
sor is changed due to the
deformation of the front
bumper and the body. We rec-ommend that the system be
serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Your vehicle has been designed to absorb impact
and deploy the air bag(s) in
certain collisions. Installing
bumper guards or replacing
with an unauthorized bumper
may adversely affect the air
bag deployment performance.
