Safety system of your vehicle
In case of the Lefthand drive vehi
cle, the sensors and modules are in
the symmetrically opposite order.
The SRSCM continuously monitors
all SRS components while the igni
tion switch is ON to determine if a
crash impact is severe enough to
require air bag deployment or pre
tensioner seat belt deployment.
The SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument panel will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position,
after which the air bag warning light
should go out.The air bag modules are located
both in the center of the steering
wheel and in the front passenger's
panel above the glove box. When the
SRSCM detects a sufficiently severe
impact to the front of the vehicle, it
will automatically deploy the front air
bags.
If any of the following conditions
occurs, this indicates a malfunc
tion of the SRS. We recommend
that the system be inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
•The light does not turn on briefly
when you turn the ignition ON.
•The light stays on after illuminat
ing for approximately 6 seconds.
•The light comes on while the
vehicle is in motion.
•The light blinks when the ignition
switch is in ON position.

•When installing a container of
liquid air freshener inside the
vehicle, do not place it near the
instrument cluster nor on the
instrument panel surface.
It may become a dangerous pro
jectile and cause injury if the pas
senger's air bag inflates.
•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 cold water
and a mild soap after an accident
in which the air bags were
deployed.

WARNING (Continued)
•The SRS can function only
when the ignition switch is in the
ON position.
•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
position. Failure to heed this
warning will cause the SRS air
bag warning light to illuminate.

(Continued)
•Children age 12 and under must
always be properly restrained in
the rear seat. Never allow chil
dren to ride in the front passen
ger seat. If a child over 12 must
be seated in the front seat, he or
she must be properly belted and
the seat should be moved as far
back as possible.
•For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, all occu
pants including the driver should
always wear their seat belts
whether or not an air bag is also
provided at their seating position
to minimize the risk of severe
injury or death in the event of a
crash. Do not sit or lean unnec
essarily close to the air bag
while the vehicle is in motion.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Sitting improperly or out of posi
tion can result in serious or fatal
injury in a crash. All occupants
should sit upright with the seat
back in an upright position, cen
tered on the seat cushion with
their seat belt on, legs comfort
ably extended and their feet on
the floor until the vehicle is
parked and the ignition key is
removed.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•The SRS air bag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If an occu
pant is out of position because
of not wearing a seat belt, the air
bag may forcefully contact the
occupant causing serious or
fatal injuries.

cle is equipped with side impact
air bags.

•Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
•Use of seat covers could reduce
or prevent the effectiveness 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
front door and the front seat. Such
objects may become dangerous
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 whenthe ignition switch
is on.

• The remote key battery is weak.
• Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
• The weather is extremely cold.
• The remote key is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio station
or an airport which can interfere
with normal operation of the
remote key.
When the remote key does not work
correctly, open and close the door

(Continue)(Continue)
If the remote key is in close proximi
ty to your mobile phone, the signal
could be blocked by your mobile
phones normal operational signals.
This is especially important when the
phone is active such as making and
receiving calls, text messaging,
and/or sending/receiving emails.
Avoid placing the remote key and
your mobile phone in the same pants
or jacket pocket and always try to
maintain an adequate distance
between the two devices.

Immobilizer system
(if equipped)
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, it is
recommended that you contact 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.
The transponder in your key is an
important part of the immobilizer sys
tem. It is designed to give years of
troublefree service, however you
should avoid exposure to moisture,
static electricity and rough handling.
Immobilizer system malfunction
could occur.
NOTICE
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle. Your
immobilizer password is a cus
tomer unique password and
should be kept confidential.
