The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash sever-
ity, angle, speed and impact.
The side and curtain air bags on both
sides of the vehicle may deploy if a
rollover or possible rollover is detected.
The curtain air bags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact or rollover situa-
tions.How Does the Air Bag System
Operate?
The SRS consists of the following com-
ponents:
1. Driver's front air bag module
2. Passenger's front air bag module
3. Side air bag modules
4. Curtain air bag modules
5. Retractor pre-tensioner assemblies
6. Air bag warning light
7. SRS control module (SRSCM)/Rollover sensor
8. Front impact sensors
9. Side impact sensors
10. Side pressure sensors
11. Driver's knee air bag module
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death from an inflating curtain
air bags, take the following precau-
tions:
All seat occupants must wear
seat belts at all times to help keep
occupants positioned properly.
Properly secure child restraints
as far away from the door as pos-
sible.
Do not place any objects over the
air bag. Also, do not attach any
objects around the area the air
bag inflates such as the door,
side door glass, front and rear pil-
lar, roof side rail.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not hang other objects except
clothes, especially hard or break-
able objects. In an accident, it
may cause vehicle damage or
personal injury.
Do not allow passengers to lean
their heads or bodies onto doors,
put their arms on the doors,
stretch their arms out of the win-
dow, or place objects between
the doors and seats.
Do not open or repair the side
curtain air bags.

12. Emergency Fastening DeviceSystem
13. Occupant classification system
The SRSCM (Supplemental Restraint
System Control Module) continually
monitors all SRS components while the
ignition switch is in the ON position 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 depict-
ed in the illustration. The system checks
the air bag electrical system for malfunc-
tions. The light indicates that there is a
potential malfunction with your air bag
system, which could include your side
and curtain air bags used for rollover pro-
tection. During a frontal collision, sensors will
detect the vehicle's deceleration. If the
rate of deceleration 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.
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 certain frontal or side collisions to help protect
the occupants from serious physical
injury.
Generally, air bags are designed to inflate based upon the severity of a col-
lision, its direction, etc. These two fac-
tors determine whether the sensors
produce an electronic deployment/
inflation signal.
If your SRS malfunctions, the air
bag may not inflate properly during
an accident increasing the risk of
serious 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 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.
The light blinks when the engine
is running.
Have an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er inspect the SRS as soon as pos-
sible if any of these conditions
occur.

Air bag deployment depends on anumber of factors including vehicle
speed, angles of impact and the densi-
ty and stiffness of the vehicles or
objects which your vehicle impacts
during a collision. The determining fac-
tors are not limited to those mentioned
above.
The front air bags will completely inflate and deflate in an instant. It is vir-
tually impossible for you to see the air
bags inflate during an accident. It is
much more likely that you will simply
see the deflated air bags hanging out
of their storage compartments after the
collision.
In addition to inflating in certain side collisions, vehicles equipped with a
rollover sensor, side and curtain air
bags will inflate if the sensing system
detects a rollover.
When a rollover is detected, side and
curtain air bags will remain inflated
longer to help provide protection from
ejection, especially when used in con-
junction with the seat belts. To help provide protection, the air bags
must inflate rapidly. The speed of air
bag inflation is a consequence of
extremely short time in which to inflate
the air bag between the occupant and
the vehicle structures before the occu-
pant impacts those structures. This
speed of inflation reduces the risk of
serious or life-threatening injuries and
is thus a necessary part of air bag
design.
However, the rapid air bag inflation can
also cause injuries which can include
facial abrasions, bruises and broken
bones because the inflation speed also
causes the air bags to expand with a
great deal of force.
There are even circumstances under which contact with the air bag can
cause fatal injuries, especially if the
occupant is positioned excessively
close to the air bag.
You can take steps to help reduce the
risk of being injured by an inflating air
bag. The greatest risk is sitting too close
to the air bag. An air bag needs about 10
inches (25 cm) of space to inflate.
NHTSA recommends that drivers allow
at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the
center of the steering wheel and the
chest. To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death from an inflating air bag,
take the following precautions:
NEVER place a child restraint in
the front passenger seat.
Always properly restrain children
under age 13 in the rear seats of
the vehicle.
Adjust the front passenger’s and
driver's seats as far to the rear as
possible while allowing you to
maintain full control of the vehi-
cle.
Hold the steering wheel with
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3
o'clock positions.
Never place anything or anyone
between the air bag and the seat
occupant.
Do not allow the front passenger
to place their feet or legs on the
dashboard.

Loss of a smart key
A maximum of two Smart Keys can be
registered to a single vehicle. If you hap-
pen to lose your smart key, you should
immediately take the vehicle and remain-
ing keys to your authorized HYUNDAI
dealer or tow the vehicle, if necessary.
Smart key precautions

HYUNDAI dealer.
If the smart key is in close proximity to
your mobile phone, the signal could be
blocked by your mobile phones normal
operational signals. This is especially
important when the phone is active such

Dispose the battery according to
your local law(s) and regulation(s).
Immobilizer System
(if equipped)
The immobilizer system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly coded
key (or other device) is used, the
engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, the immobilizer system indi-
cator should come on briefly, then go off.
If the indicator starts to blink, the system
does not recognize the coding of the key.
Place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position, then place the igni-
tion switch to the ON position again.
The system may not recognize your key’s
coding if another immobilizer key or other
metal object (i.e., key chain) is near the
key. The engine may not start because
the metal may interrupt the transponder
signal from transmitting normally. If the system repeatedly does not recog-
nize the coding of the key, it is recom-
mended that you contact your HYUNDAI
dealer.
Do not attempt to alter this system or add
other devices to it. Electrical problems
could result that may make your vehicle
inoperable.
The transponder in your key is an
important part of the immobilizer sys-
tem. It is designed to give years of
trouble-free service, however you
should avoid exposure to moisture,
static electricity and rough handling.
Immobilizer system malfunction could
occur.
