What to Expect After an Air
Bag Inflates
After a frontal or side air bag inflates, it
will deflate very quickly. Air bag inflation
will not prevent the driver from seeing out
of the windshield or being able to steer.
Curtain air bags may remain partially
inflated for some time after they deploy.
Noise and smoke from inflatingair bag
When the air bags inflate, they make a
loud noise and may produce smoke and
powder in the air inside of the vehicle.
This is normal and is a result of the igni-
tion of the air bag inflator. After the air
bag inflates, you may feel substantial dis-
comfort in breathing because of the con-
tact of your chest with both the seat belt
and the air bag, as well as from breathing
the smoke and powder. The powder may
aggravate asthma for some people. If you
experience breathing problems after an
air bag deployment, seek medical atten-
tion immediately.
Though the smoke and powder are non-
toxic, they may cause irritation to the
skin, eyes, nose, throat, etc. If this is the
case, wash and rinse with cold water
immediately and seek medical attention
if the symptoms persist.
To prevent objects from becoming
dangerous projectiles when the
passenger's air bag inflates:
Do not install or place any
objects (drink holder, CD holder,
stickers, etc.) on the front pas-
senger's panel above the glove
box where the passenger's air
bag is located.
Do not install a container of liquid
air freshener near the instrument
cluster or on the instrument
panel surface.
WARNING
After an air bag inflates, take the
following precautions:
Open your windows and doors as
soon as possible after impact to
reduce prolonged exposure to
the smoke and powder released
by the inflating air bag.
Do not touch the air bag storage
area's internal components
immediately after an air bag has
inflated. The parts that come into
contact with an inflating air bag
may be very hot.
Always wash exposed skin areas
thoroughly with cold and mild
soap.

WARNING
(Continued)
Always have an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer replace the air
bag immediately after deploy-
ment. Air bags are designed to be
used only once.

Information
• The warning chime will turn off whenthe detected vehicle moves out of the
sensing area or if your vehicle is moved
away from the detected vehicle.
• The system may not operate properly due to other factors or circumstances.
Always pay attention to your surround-
ings.
• If the sensing area near the rear bumper is blocked by either a wall or barrier or
by a parked vehicle, the system sensing
area may be reduced. The system may not work properly
when the bumper has been dam-
aged, or if the rear bumper has been
replaced or repaired.
The sensing range differs some- what according to the width of the
road. When the road is narrow, the
system may detect other vehicles in
the next lane.
The system may turn off due to strong electromagnetic waves.
Non-operating condition
The BSD indicator on the outer side
view mirror may not illuminate
properly when:
- The outer side view mirror housing isdamaged.
- The mirror is covered with dirt, snow, or debris.
- The window is covered with dirt, snow, or debris.
- The window is tinted.
NOTICEi
The warning light on the outer
side view mirror will illuminate
whenever a vehicle is detected at
the rear side by the system.
To avoid accidents, do not focus
only on the warning light and
neglect to see the surrounding of
the vehicle. (Continued)
(Continued)
Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with a Blind
Spot Detection System (BSD) and
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA).
Do not solely rely on the system
but check your surrounding
before changing lanes or backing
the vehicle up.
The system may not alert the
driver in some conditions so
always check your surroundings
while driving.
The Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) and Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (RCTA) are not a substitute
for proper and safe driving prac-
tices. Always drive safely and use
caution when changing lanes or
backing up your vehicle. The
Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) may not detect every
object alongside the vehicle.

Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycolcoolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high quality
ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling
system. It is the only type of coolant that
should be used because it helps prevent
corrosion in the cooling system, lubri-
cates the water pump and prevents
freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish
your coolant in accordance with the
maintenance schedule in chapter 7.
Before winter, have your coolant tested to
assure that its freezing point is sufficient
for the temperatures anticipated during
the winter.
Change to "winter weight" oil ifnecessary
In some climates it is recommended that
a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be
used during cold weather. See chapter 8
for recommendations. If you aren't sure
what weight oil you should use, consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on the
battery system. Visually inspect the bat-
tery and cables as described in chapter
7. The level of charge in your battery can
be checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer or a service station.
Check spark plugs and ignitionsystem
Inspect your spark plugs as described in
chapter 7 and replace them if necessary.
Also check all ignition wiring and compo-
nents to be sure they are not cracked,
worn or damaged in any way.
Use approved window washeranti-freeze in system
To keep the water in the window washer
system from freezing, add an approved
window washer anti-freeze solution in
accordance with instructions on the con-
tainer. Window washer anti-freeze is
available from an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and most auto parts outlets. Do
not use engine coolant or other types of
anti-freeze as these may damage the
paint finish.
Do not let your parking brakefreeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged position.
This is most likely to happen when there
is an accumulation of snow or ice around
or near the rear brakes or if the brakes
are wet. If there is a risk the parking
brake may freeze, apply it only temporar-
ily while you put the gear selector lever in
P and block the rear wheels so the car
cannot roll. Then release the parking
brake.
Do not let ice and snow accu-mulate underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and inter-
fere with the steering. When driving in
severe winter conditions where this may
happen, you should periodically check
underneath the car to be sure the move-
ment of the front wheels and the steering
components is not obstructed.

Blade Inspection
Contamination of either the windshield or
the wiper blades with foreign matter can
reduce the effectiveness of the wind-
shield wiper functionality. Common
sources of contamination are insects,
tree sap, and hot wax treatments used by
some commercial car washes. If the
blades are not wiping properly, clean
both the window and the blades with a
clean cloth dampened with washer fluid. To prevent damage to the wiper
blades, arms or other components, do
not:
Use gasoline, kerosene, paint thin-
ner, or other solvents on or near
them.
Attempt to move the wipers manual- ly.
Use non-specified wiper blades.
Information
Commercial hot waxes applied by auto-
matic car washes have been known to
make the windshield difficult to clean.
Blade Replacement
When the wipers no longer clean ade-
quately, the blades may be worn or
cracked, and require replacement.
To prevent damage to the wiper arms
or other components, do not attempt
to move the wipers manually.
The use of a non-specified wiper
blade could result in wiper malfunc-
tion and failure.
