Driver's and passenger's front air
bag (if equipped)Your vehicle is equipped with a
Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System
and lap/shoulder belts at both the driver
and passenger seating positions.
WARNING
 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 lukewarm
water and a mild soap after an
accident in which the air bags
were deployed.

(Continued)
 The SRS can function only whenthe ignition key is in the "ON"
position. If the SRS air bag warn-
ing light does not illuminate, or
continuously remains on after
illuminating for about 6 seconds
when the ignition key is turned to
the ON position, or after the
engine is started, comes on
whilst driving, the SRS is not
working properly. If this occurs,
we recommend that the system
be inspected by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
 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 posi-
tion. Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS air bag warn-
ing light to illuminate.

3SRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and so there are no parts you can safely
service by yourself. If the SRS air bag
warning light does not illuminate, or con-
tinuously remains on, we recommend
that the system be inspected by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
WARNING
 Modification to SRS components
or wiring, including the addition
of any kind of badges to the pad
covers or modifications to the
body structure, can adversely
affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
 For cleaning the air bag pad cov- ers, use only a soft, dry cloth or
one which has been moistened
with plain water. Solvents or
cleaners could adversely affect
the air bag covers and proper
deployment of the system.
 No objects should be placed over or near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, and the front passenger's
panel above the glove box,
because any such object could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause
the air bags to inflate.
 If the air bags inflate, we recom- mend that the system be
replaced by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
(Continued)
(Continued)
 Do not tamper with or disconnectSRS wiring, or other components
of the SRS system. Doing so
could result in injury, due to acci-
dental inflation of the air bags or
by rendering the SRS inopera-
tive.
 If components of the air bag sys- tem must be discarded, or if the
vehicle must be scrapped, certain
safety precautions must be
observed. We recommend that
you contact a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer for these precau-
tions and necessary information.
Failure to follow these precau-
tions and procedures could
increase the risk of personal
injury.
 If your car was flooded and has soaked carpeting or water on
flooring, you shouldn't try to start
the engine; we recommend that
you contact a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.

KEYS
WARNING
- Ignition key(Smart key)
Leaving children unattended in a
vehicle with the ignition key (Smart
key) is dangerous even if the key is
not in the ignition or start button is
ACC or ON position.
Children copy adults and they
could place the key in the ignition
or press the start button.
The ignition key (Smart key) would
enable children to operate power
windows or other controls, or even
make the vehicle move, which
could result in serious bodily injury
or even death.
Never leave the keys in your vehicle
with unsupervised children, when
the engine is running.
WARNING
We recommend that you use parts
for replacement from a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer. If an aftermar-
ket key is used, the ignition switch
may not return to ON after START.
If this happens, the starter will con-
tinue to operate causing damage to
the starter motor and possible fire
due to excessive current in the
wiring.

Features of your vehicle
Immobiliser systemYour vehicle may be equipped with an
electronic engine immobiliser system to
reduce the risk of unauthorised vehicle
use.
Your immobiliser system is comprised of
a small transponder in the ignition key
and electronic devices inside the vehicle.
With the immobiliser system, whenever
you insert your ignition key into the igni-
tion switch and turn it to ON, it checks
and determines and verifies if the ignition
key is valid or not.
If the key is determined to be valid, the
engine will start.
If the key is determined to be invalid, the
engine will not start.
To deactivate the immobiliser sys-tem:Insert the ignition key into the key cylin-
der and turn it to the ON position.To activate the immobiliser system:Turn the ignition key to the OFF position.
The immobiliser system activates auto-
matically. Without a valid ignition key for
your vehicle, the engine will not start.
✽ ✽ NOTICEThe immobiliser system detects the
presence of a key in the ignition switch.
To ensure the system performs correct-
ly, the keys should be separated after
delivery of the vehicle so that only one
key is near the ignition switch when
using the vehicle. The engine may not
start or may stop shortly after starting if
more than one key is near the ignition
switch.✽ ✽NOTICEIf you need additional keys or lose your
keys, we recommend that you consult a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
WARNING
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle. Your
immobiliser password is a cus-
tomer unique password and should
be kept confidential. Do not leave
this number anywhere in your vehi-
cle.
CAUTION
Do not put metal accessories near
the ignition switch.
The engine may not start for themetal accessories may interrupt the transponder signal from normallytransmitting.

- The smart key is close to a radiotransmitter such as a radio station or
an airport which can interfere with
normal operation of the smart key.

Features of your vehicle
This system is designed to provide pro-
tection from unauthorised entry into the
vehicle. This system is operated in three
stages: the first is the "Armed" stage, the
second is the "Theft-alarm" stage, and
