Safety features of your vehicle
SRS Care
The 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 continuously remains
on, we recommend that the system
be inspected by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
WARNING
• Modification to SRS compo-
nents or wiring, including the
addition of any kind of badges
to the pad covers or modifica-
tions to the body structure,
can adversely affect SRS per-
formance and lead to possible
injury.
• For cleaning the air bag pad
covers, 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 deploy-
ment of the system.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• No objects should be placed
over or near the air bag mod-
ules 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 rec-
ommend that the system be
replaced by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
• Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring, or other com-
ponents of the SRS system.
Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental inflation of
the air bags or by rendering the
SRS inoperative.
(Continued)(Continued)
• If components of the air bag
system must be discarded, or if
the vehicle must be scrapped,
certain safety precautions must
be observed. A HYUNDAI
authorised repairer knows
these precautions and can give
you the 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 recom-
mend that you contact a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.

KEYS
WARNING
We recommend that you use
parts for replacement from a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer. If
an aftermarket key is used, the
ignition switch may not return
to ON after START. If this hap-
pens, the starter will continue to
operate causing damage to the
starter motor and possible fire
due to excessive current in the
wiring.
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
switch or the ENGINE START/
STOP button is ACC or ON posi-
tion. Children copy adults and
they could place the key in the
ignition switch or press the
ENGINE START/STOP button.
The ignition key (smart key)
would enable children to oper-
ate power windows or other
controls, or even make the vehi-
cle 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.

Immobiliser system
Your vehicle may be equipped with
an electronic engine immobiliser sys-
tem to reduce the risk of unautho-
rised vehicle use.
Your immobiliser system is com-
prised of a small transponder in the
key and electronic devices inside the
vehicle.
Vehicles without smart key sys-
tem
With the immobiliser system, when-
ever you insert your ignition key into
the ignition switch and turn it to ON,
it checks and determines and verifies
if the ignition key is valid or not.
If the key is valid, the engine will start.
If the key is invalid, the engine will
not start.To deactivate the immobiliser system:
Insert the ignition key into the key
cylinder and turn it to the ON posi-
tion.
To activate the immobiliser system:
Turn the ignition key to the OFF posi-
tion. The immobiliser system acti-
vates automatically. Without a valid
ignition key for your vehicle, the
engine will not start.
Vehicles with smart key system
Whenever the engine start/stop but-
ton is changed to the ON position,
the immobiliser system checks and
verifies if the key is valid or not.
If the key is valid, the engine will start.
If the key is invalid, the engine will
not start.
To deactivate the immobiliser system
Change the engine start/stop button
to the ON position.
To activate the immobiliser system
Change the engine start/stop button
to the OFF position. The immobiliser
system activates automatically.
Without a valid smart key for your
vehicle, the engine will not start.

✽NOTICE
When starting the engine, do not use
the key with other immobiliser keys
around. Otherwise the engine may
not start or may stop soon after it
starts. Keep each key separate in
order to avoid a starting malfun-
tioin.
✽NOTICE
If you need additional keys or lose
your keys, we recommend that you
consult with a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
CAUTION
The transponder in your ignition
key is an important part of the
immobiliser system. It is
designed to give years of trou-
ble-free service, however you
should avoid exposure to mois-
ture, static electricity and rough
handling. Immobiliser system
malfunction could occur.
CAUTION
Do not change, alter or adjust
the immobiliser system
because it could cause the
immobiliser system to malfunc-
tion and we recommend that the
system be serviced by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Malfunctions caused by improp-
er alterations, adjustments or
modifications to the immobilis-
er system are not covered by
your vehicle manufacturer war-
ranty.
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 vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not put metal accessories
near the ignition switch.
The engine may not start for the
metal accessories may interrupt
the transponder signal from
normally transmitting.
