2016 Hyundai Equus warning

Curtain air bag
Curtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect
the passengers' heads in the front
and the rear seats (excluding the
rear center seat) in a certain side
impact collision.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only in a certain side-impact
collision, depending on an impact
severity, an angle, a speed and a
direction. The curtain air bags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact
situations, a frontal/rear collision or
most rollovers.

Safety system of your vehicle
OVI035084N
OVI035074N
In order to get best protectionfrom the side and curtain air
bags, occupants of the front
and rear seats (excluding the
rear center seat) should sit in
an upright position with the
seat belts properly fastened.
Importantly, children should
sit in a proper child restraint
in a rear seat.
When a child is seated in a rear seat, the child must be
seated in a proper child
restraint. Make sure to install
a child restraint system as far
away from a door as possible,
and secure the child restraint
system in a locked position.
Do not allow the occupants to lean their heads or bodies
onto doors, to put their arms
on the doors, to stretch their
arms out of the window, or to
place objects between the
doors and passengers, when
occupying in the seat
equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.
Never attempt to modify or repair any components of the
side curtain air bag system.
This should be done only by
an authorized EQUUS dealer.
Failure to follow the above
instructions may result in injury
or death in an accident.
WARNING

Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate
in a frontal collision depending on
impact intensity, a speed or an
impact angle.
2-62
Safety system of your vehicle Do not hit or allow any objects to strike the areas where the
air bags or the sensors are
installed.
This may cause unexpected
air bag deployment, resulting
in serious personal injury or
death.
When the sensor position or angle moves out of its default
position, the air bags may
deploy, or they should
not/may not deploy when they
should, causing severe injury
or death.
Therefore, do not attempt to
modify or repair the air bag
sensors. Have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized EQUUS dealer.
Problems may arise, when the sensor moves out of its
default position due to the
deformation of the front
bumper, the vehicle body and
the B-and-C pillars, where
side impact sensors are
installed. Have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized EQUUS dealer.
Your vehicle is designed to absorb impact and deploy the
air bag(s) in a certain colli-
sion. Installing bumper
guards or replacing a bumper
with imitated or counterfeit
parts may adversely affect
your vehicle and the air bags.
WARNING
OVI035049N

Air bags may not inflate, when avehicle collides with objects such
as utility poles or trees, where the
impact point is concentrated and
the collision energy is absorbed by
the vehicle.
SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance
free and there are no parts you can
safely maintain by yourself. In case
that the SRS air bag warning light
" " does not illuminate when turn-
ing ON the Engine Start/Stop button,
or when continuously remains ON,
have your vehicle immediately
inspected by an authorized EQUUS
dealer.
The SRS system, the steering wheel,
the front panel, the front seats and
the roof rails must be installed,
repaired, maintained or removed
only by an authorized EQUUS deal-
er. Improper SRS modification may
result in serious personal injury.
2-65
Safety system of your vehicle02
OVI035055N
Modification to SRS compo-nents, such as a bandage
addition to the pad covers, or
other modifications to the
body structure may adversely
affect SRS performance and
result in injury.
Not only the modification of the area, where the SRS sen-
sor are installed, but also the
modification of other areas
may affect the SRS perform-
ance and result in possible
injury.
When cleaning the air bag pad covers, use only a soft and
dry cloth, or the one soaked
with plain water. Solvents or
cleaners may adversely affect
the air bag covers and prevent
its proper deployment.

WARNING

Do not modify the front seats.
Modification of the front seats
could interfere with the operation of
the SRS sensing components or
side impact air bags.
Do not place items under the
front seats. Items under the front
seats could interfere with the oper-
ation of the SRS sensing compo-
nents or wiring harnesses.
Never hold an infant or child on
your laps. The infant or child may
be seriously injured or killed in the
event of a crash. All infants and
children should be properly
restrained in an appropriate child
restraint or in a rear seat with a
seat belt.Adding equipment to or modify- ing your air bag-equipped vehi-cle
When you modify your vehicle frame,
bumper system, front-end or side-
sheet metal or ride height, this may
adversely affect the operation of your
vehicle's air bag system.
2-67
Safety system of your vehicle02
Sitting improperly or out of
position may cause occu-
pants to slant too close
towards a deploying air bag,
strike the interior structure or
be thrown from the vehicle,
resulting in serious injury or
death.
Always put a seatback upright, and seat on the cen-
ter of the seat cushion with
your seat belt fastened, legs
comfortably extended and
your feet rested on the floor.
