Introduction
Unleaded
Your new vehicle is designed to use only
unleaded fuel having an Octane Rating
of RON (Research Octane Number) 91 /
AKI (Anti-Knock Index) 87 or higher.
Your new vehicle is designed to obtain
maximum performance with UNLEADED
FUEL, as well as minimize exhaust emis-
sions and spark plug fouling.
Leaded (if equipped)
For some countries, your vehicle is
designed to use leaded gasoline. When
you are going to use leaded gasoline, we
recommend that you ask an authorzied
HYUNDAI dealer whether leaded gaso-
line in your vehicle is available or not.
Octane Rating of leaded gasoline is
same with unleaded one.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION
NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The
use of leaded fuel is detrimental to
the catalytic converter and will
damage the engine control sys-
tem’s oxygen sensor and affect
emission control.
Never add any fuel system cleaning
agents to the fuel tank other than
what has been specified. (We rec-
ommend that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
details)
WARNING
• Do not "top off" after the nozzle
automatically shuts off when
refueling.
• Always check that the fuel cap is
installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an acci-
dent.

Safety system of your vehicle
The seat belt pre-tensioner system con-
sists mainly of the following components.
Their locations are shown in the illustration:
1. SRS air bag warning light
2. Retractor pre-tensioner assembly
3. SRS control module
✽NOTICE
The sensor that activates the SRS air
bag is connected with the pre-tensioner
seat belts. The SRS air bag warning
light on the instrument panel will illumi-
nate for approximately 6 seconds after
the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, and then it should turn off.
If the pre-tensioner is not working prop-
erly, the warning light will illuminate
even if the SRS air bag is not malfunc-
tioning. If the warning light does not
illuminate, stays illuminated or illumi-
nates when the vehicle is being driven,
we recommend the pre-tensioner seat
belts and/or SRS air bags be inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
✽NOTICE
• Both the driver's and front passen-
ger's pre-tensioner seat belts will be
activated in certain frontal collisions.
• When the pre-tensioner seat belts are
activated, a loud noise may be heard
and fine dust, which may appear to be
smoke, may be visible in the passenger
compartment. These are normal oper-
ating conditions and are not haz-
ardous.
• Although it is non-toxic, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should
not be breathed for prolonged peri-
ods. Wash all exposed skin areas thor-
oughly after an accident in which the
pre-tensioner seat belts were activat-
ed.

How does the air bags system operate?
The SRS consists of the following components:
1. Driver's front air bag module*
2. Passenger's front air bag module*
3. Pre-tensioner seatbelt system*
4. Air bag warning light*
5. SRS control module (SRSCM)*
6. Front impact sensors*7. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF indicator *
8. Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch*
*: if equipped
The SRSCM continually monitors all SRS components while
the ignition switch is ON to determine if a crash impact is
severe enough to require air bag deployment or pre-tensioner
seat belt deployment.

SRS warning light
The SRS (Supplement Restraint System)
air bag warning light on the instrument
panel displays the air bag symbol depicted
in the illustration. The system checks the
air bag electrical system for malfunctions.
The light indicates that there is a potential
problem with your air bag system.During a moderate to severe frontal colli-
sion, sensors will detect the vehicle’s
rapid deceleration. If the rate of deceler-
ation is high enough, the control unit will
inflate the front air bags.
The front air bags help protect the driver
and front passenger by responding to
frontal impacts in which seat belts alone
cannot provide adequate restraint. When
needed, the side air bags help provide
protection in the event of a side impact or
rollover by supporting the side upper
body area.
• Air bags are activated (able to inflate if
necessary) only when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
• Air bags inflate in the event of a severe
frontal or side collision to help protect
the occupants from serious physical
injury.
• There is no single speed at which the
air bags will inflate. Generally, air bags
are designed to inflate based upon the
severity of a collision and its direction.
These two factors determine whether
the sensors produce an electronic
deployment/inflation signal.
WARNING
If your SRS malfunctions, the air bag
may not inflate properly during an
accident increasing the risk of seri-
ous injury or death.
If any of the following conditions
occur, your SRS is malfunctioning:
• The light does not turn on for
approximately six seconds when
the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
• The light stays on after illuminat-
ing for approximately six sec-
onds.
• The light comes on while the
vehicle is in motion.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• The light blinks when the engine
is running.
We recommend that an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer inspect the SRS as
soon as possible if any of these
conditions occur.

Why didn’t my air bag go off in a
collision?
(Air bags are not designed to
inflate in every collision.)
There are certain types of accidents in
which the air bag would not be expected
to provide additional protection. These
include rear impacts, second or third col-
lisions in multiple impact accidents, as
well as low speed impacts. Damage to
the vehicle indicates a collision energy
absorption, and is not an indicator of
whether or not an air bag should have
inflated.
Air bag collision sensors
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag
deploying unexpectedly and caus-
ing serious injury or death:
• Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where air
bags or sensors are installed.
• Do not perform maintenance on
or around the air bag sensors. If
the location or angle of the sen-
sors is altered, the air bags may
deploy when they should not or
may not deploy when they
should.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• Do not install bumper guards or
replace the bumper with a non-
genuine part. This may adversely
affect the collision and air bag
deployment performance.
• We recommend that all repairs
are conducted by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bag
Front air bags are designed to inflate in a
frontal collision depending on the intensi-
ty, speed or angles of impact of the front
collision.Although the driver’s and front passen-
ger’s air bags are designed to inflate only
in frontal collisions, they also may inflate
in other types of collisions if the front
impact sensors detect a sufficient
impact.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by
bumps or objects on unimproved roads,
the air bags may deploy. Drive carefully
on unimproved roads or on surfaces not
designed for vehicle traffic to prevent
unintended air bag deployment.
Air bag non-inflation conditions
In certain low-speed collisions the air
bags may not deploy. The air bags are
designed not to deploy in such cases
because they may not provide benefits
beyond the protection of the seat belts.
