Proper seated position for OCS
If the “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator is on when an adult is seat- ed in the front passenger seat, place
the ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF position and ask the passenger 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 allowthe system to detect the person and
to enable the passenger air bag. If
the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"indicator is still on, ask the passen-
ger to move to the rear seat.
✽✽NOTICE
The "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator illuminates for approxi-
mately 4 seconds after the ignition
switch is in the ON position or after
the engine is started. If the front
passenger seat is occupied, the OCS
will then classify the front passenger
after several more seconds.

Never allow an adult passenger
to ride in the front passenger
seat when the “PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF” indicator is illuminat-
ed. During a collision, the air bagwill not inflate if the indicator is
illuminated. Have your passen-
ger move to the rear seat.

Air bag collision sensors
(1) SRS control module/Rollover sensor
(2) Front impact sensor (3) Side impact sensor (4) Side impact sensor
OLMB033106/OLMB033066/OLMB033085/OLM039043/OLM039044
To reduce the risk of an air bag
deploying unexpectedly and
causing serious injury or death:
Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where
air bags or sensors areinstalled.
Do not perform maintenance
on or around the air bag sen-
sors. If the location or angle of
the sensors is altered, the air
bags may deploy when they
should not or may not deploy
when they should.
Do not install bumper guards
or replace the bumper with a
non-genuine HYUNDAI parts.
This may adversely affect the
collision and air bag deploy-
ment performance.
Place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF or ACC position
when the vehicle is being
towed to prevent inadvertent
air bag deployment.
Have all repairs conducted by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING

Safety system of your vehicle

Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle collides with objects such as utility
poles or trees, where the point of
impact is concentrated and the colli-
sion energy is absorbed by the vehi-
cle structure.
SRS care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-
free and there are no parts you can
safely service by yourself. If the SRS
air bag warning light does not illumi-
nate when the ignition switch is in the
ON position, or continuously remains
on, have your vehicle immediately
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Any work on the SRS system, such
as removing, installing, repairing, or
any work on the steering wheel, thefront passenger's panel, front seats
and roof rails must be performed by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.Improper handling of the SRS system
may result in serious personal injury.
OLMB033076
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death, take the follow-ing precautions:
Do not attempt to modify or disconnect the SRS compo-
nents or wiring, including the
addition of any kind of badges
to the pad covers or modifica-
tions to the body structure.
Do not place objects over or
near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, or the front passen-
ger's panel above the glove
box.
Clean the air bag pad covers
with a soft cloth moistened
with plain water. Solvents or
cleaners could adversely
affect the air bag covers and
proper deployment of the sys-tem.
We recommend that inflated
air bags be replaced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.(Continued)

Additional safety precautions
Passengers should not move out of
or change seats while the vehicle is
moving.A passenger who is not
wearing a seat belt during a crash or
emergency stop can be thrown
against the inside of the vehicle,
against other occupants, or be ejected
from the vehicle.
Do not use any accessories on seat belts. Devices claiming to improve
occupant comfort or reposition theseat belt can reduce the protection
provided by the seat belt and increase
the chance of serious injury in a crash
Do not modify the front seats. Modification of the front seats could
interfere with the operation of the sup-
plemental restraint system sensing
components or side air bags.
Do not place items under the front seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the opera-
tion of the supplemental restraint sys-
tem sensing components and wiring
harnesses.
Do not cause impact to the doors. Impact to the doors when the ignition
switch is in the ON position may cause
the air bags to inflate. Modifications to accommodatedisabilities.
If you require modifica-
tion to your vehicle to accommodate
a disability, contact the HYUNDAICustomer Connect Center at 1-877-378-8727.
Adding equipment to or modify-
ing your air bag equipped vehicle
If you modify your vehicle by changing
your vehicle's frame, bumper system,
front end or side sheet metal or ride
height, this may affect the operation of
your vehicle's air bag system.
(Continued)
If components of the air bag
system must be discarded, or if
the vehicle must be scrapped,
certain safety precautions
must be observed. Consult an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
the necessary information.
Failure to follow these precau-tions could increase the risk of
personal injury.

✽✽
NOTICE
An inappropriately disposedbattery can be harmful to
the environment and human
health. Dispose of the bat-
tery according to your local
law(s) and regulation(s).
Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly
coded key (or other device) is used,
the engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the immobilizer sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognize
the coding of the key.
Place the ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF position, then place the
ignition switch to the ON positionagain.
The system may not recognize your
key’s coding if another immobilizer
key or other metal object (i.e., key
chain) is near the key. The engine
may not start because the metal may
interrupt the transponder signal from
transmitting normally. If the system repeatedly does not
recognize the coding of the key, con-
tact your HYUNDAI dealer. Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it. Electrical
problems could result that may make
your vehicle inoperable.
