Where Are the Air Bags?
Driver's and passenger's frontair bags
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Advanced Supplemental RestraintSystem (SRS) and lap/shoulder belts
at both the driver and passenger
seating positions. The SRS consists of air bags which are located in the center of the steer-
ing wheel, in the driver's side lower
crash pad below the steering wheelcolumn and the passenger's side
front panel pad above the glove box. The air bags are labeled with the let-
ters "AIR BAG" embossed on the
pad covers. The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the vehicle's driver and front passen-gers with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt system
alone. The advanced SRS offers theability to control the air bag inflation
within two levels. A first stage level is
provided for moderate-severity
impacts. A second stage level is pro-
vided for more severe impacts.
According to the impact severity, the SRS Control Module (SRSCM) con-
trols the air bag inflation. Failure to
properly wear seat belts can
increase the risk or severity of injuryin an accident.

Side air bags
Your vehicle is equipped with a side
air bag in each front seat. The pur-
pose of the air bag is to provide the
vehicle's driver and the front passen-ger with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt alone.The side air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side
impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity.
The side and curtain air bags on
both sides of the vehicle may deploy
if a rollover or possible rollover isdetected. The side air bags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact or rollover
situations.
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
front air bags, take the followingprecautions:
Seat belts must be worn at all times to help keep occupants
positioned properly.
Move your seat as far back as
possible from front air bags,
while still maintaining control
of the vehicle.
Never lean against the door or
center console.
Do not allow the front passen-
ger to place their feet or legs
on the dashboard.
No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular phone holder,
cup holder, perfume or stickers)
should be placed over or near
the air bag modules on the
steering wheel, instrument
panel, windshield glass, and the
front passenger's panel above
the glove box. Such objects
could cause harm if the vehicle
is in a crash severe enough to
cause the air bags to deploy.

Curtain air bags
Curtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
(Continued)
Do not allow passengers to lean their heads or bodies
onto doors, put their arms on
the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place
objects between the doorsand seats.
Hold the steering wheel at the
9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi-
tions, to minimize the risk of
injuries to your hands andarms.
Do not use any accessory
seat covers. This could reduce
or prevent the effectivenessof the system.
Do not place any objects over
the air bag or between the air
bag and yourself. Also, do not
attach any objects around the
area the air bag inflates such
as the door, side door glass,
front and rear pillar.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not place any objects between the door and the
seat. They may become dan-
gerous projectiles if the side
air bag inflates.
Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side air
bags.
Do not put any objects
between the side airbag label
and seat cushion. It could
cause harm if the vehicle is in
a crash severe enough to
cause the air bags to deploy.
Do not cause impact to the
doors when the ignition
switch is in the ON position as
this may cause the side air
bags to inflate.
If the seat or seat cover is
damaged, have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

You can take steps to help reduce
the risk of being injured by an inflat-
ing air bag. The greatest risk is sitting
too close to the air bag. An air bag
needs space to inflate. It is recom-
mended that drivers sit as far as pos-
sible between the center of the steer-ing wheel and the chest while still
maintaining control of the vehicle.When the SRSCM detects a suffi-
ciently severe impact to the front of
the vehicle, it will automatically
deploy the front air bags.

■Driver's front air bag (1)
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following pre-cautions:
NEVER place a child restraint
in the front passenger seat.
Always properly restrain chil-
dren 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 allow-
ing you to maintain full con-
trol of the vehicle.
Hold the steering wheel with
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3
o'clock positions.
Never place anything or any-
one between the air bag andthe seat occupant.
Do not allow the front passen-
ger to place their feet or legs
on the dashboard.
WARNING

2-66
Safety system of your vehicle
Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle collides with objects such as utility
poles or trees, where the point of
impact is concentrated and the colli-
sion energy is absorbed by the vehi-
cle structure.
SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-
free and there are no parts you can
safely service by yourself. If the SRS
air bag warning light does not illumi-
nate when the ignition switch is in the
ON position, or continuously remains
on, have your vehicle immediately
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Any work on the SRS system, such
as removing, installing, repairing, or
any work on the steering wheel, thefront passenger's panel, front seats
and roof rails must be performed by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.Improper handling of the SRS sys-
tem may result in serious personal
injury.To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death, take the follow-ing precautions:
Do not attempt to modify or disconnect the SRS compo-
nents or wiring, including the
addition of any kind of badges
to the pad covers or modifica-
tions to the body structure.
Do not place objects over or
near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, or the front passen-
ger’s panel above the glove
box.
Clean the air bag pad covers
with a soft cloth moistened
with plain water. Solvents or
cleaners could adversely
affect the air bag covers and
proper deployment of the sys-tem.
Always have inflated air bags
replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
 The steering effort may be high immediately after placing the igni-
tion switch in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics are complet-
ed, the steering wheel will return to
its normal condition.
 A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition switch is
in the ON or LOCK/OFF position.
 Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low driv-
ing speed.
 When you operate the steering wheel in low temperatures, abnor-
mal noise may occur. If the temper-
ature rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.
 When an error is detected from the EPS, the steering effort assist func-
tion will not be activated in order to
prevent fatal accidents. Instrument
cluster warning lights may be on or
the steering effort may be high.
When the following symptoms
occur, immediately drive the vehicle
to a safe area and check it.Tilt Steering / Telescope Steering
Adjust the steering wheel so it points
toward your chest, not toward your
face. Make sure you can see the
instrument cluster warning lights and
gauges. After adjusting, push the
steering wheel both up and down to
be certain it is locked in position.
Always adjust the position of the
steering wheel before driving.
To change the steering wheel angleand height:
1. Pull down the lock-release lever (1).
2. Adjust the steering wheel to thedesired angle (2) and distance for-
ward/back (3).
3. Pull up the lock-release lever to lock the steering wheel in place.
Information
After adjustment, sometimes the lock
release lever may not lock the steering
wheel. It is not a malfunction. This
occurs when two gears are not
engaged correctly. In this case, adjust
the steering wheel again and then lock
the steering wheel.
