Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make
a loud noise, leaving smoke and
powder inside the vehicle. This is
normal and is a result of the ignition
of the air bag inflator.
After the air bag inflates, you may
feel substantial discomfort in breath-
ing due to the contact of your chestwith both the seat belt and the air
bag, as well as due to the inhaled
smoke and powder.Immediately
open the doors/windows after the
inflation of the air bag in order to
reduce discomfort and prevent a
prolonged exposure to the smoke
and powder.
Though the smoke and powder are
non-toxic, they may cause skin irrita-
tion (for eyes, nose and throat, etc).
In this case, immediately wash the
irritated area with cold water. Consult
a doctor, if the symptom persists.
Do not install a child restraint
on the front passenger seat
When the air bags deploy, the
air bag components inside thesteering wheel and/or the
instrument cluster become
extremely hot. To prevent injury,
do not touch the air bag compo-
nents, immediately after an air
bag inflates.

Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat. If the air bag deploys, it would
impact the rear-facing child restraint,
causing serious or fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraints in the front passen-
ger’s seat either. If the front passen-
ger air bag inflates, it would cause
serious or fatal injuries to the child.
Air bag warning light
The purpose of the air bag warning
light on your instrument cluster is to
alert you of a potential problem with
your air bag - Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS). The warn-
ing light illuminates for approximately
6 seconds, after turning ON the igni-
tion switch. Then, it goes OFF.
Check the system for the below symptoms:

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.

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.

WARNING
OEU044068
■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)

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.
