WARNING
• No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating to
remove slack, or prevent the seat
belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
• When you fasten the seat belt, be
careful not to latch the seat belt
in buckles of other seat. It’s very
dangerous and you may not be
protected by the seat belt properly.
• Do not unfasten the seat belt and
do not fasten and unfasten the seat
belt repeatedly while driving. This
could result in loss of control, and
an accident causing death, serious
injury, or property damage.
• When fastening the seat belt, make
sure that the seat belt does not pass
over objects that are hard or can
break easily.
• Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle. The seat belt may not be
fastened securely.
Seat belt warning
1GQA20831GQA2083
As a reminder to the driver (or front
passenger), the driver’s (or front
passenger’s) seat belt warning lights will
illuminate for approximately 6 seconds
each time you turn the ignition switch
ON regardless of belt fastening.
If the driver’s (or front passenger’s)
seat belt is not fastened when the
ignition switch is turned ON or if it is
disconnected after the ignition switch
is turned ON, the seat belt warning light
will illuminate until the belt is fastened.
If you continue not to fasten the seat
belt and you drive over 9 km/h, the
illuminated warning light will start to
blink until you drive under 6 km/h.
If you continue not to fasten the seat
belt and you drive over 20 km/h (12 mph)
the seat belt warning chime will sound
for approximately 100 seconds and the
corresponding warning light will blink.

NOTICE
The sensor that activates the SRS
control module is connected with the
pre–tensioner seat belts. The SRS air
bag warning light on the instrument
cluster will illuminate 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 properly, the warning light
will illuminate even if the SRS air bag is
not malfunctioning. If the warning light
does not illuminate,stays illuminated
or illuminates when the vehicle is
being driven, we recommend the pre-
tensioner seat belts and/or SRS control
module be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
i Information
• Both the driver’s and front passenger’s
pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in certain frontal or side
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
operating conditions and are not
hazardous.
• Although it is non-toxic, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should
not be inhaled for prolonged periods.
Wash all exposed skin areas thoroughly
after an accident in which the pre-
tensioner seat belts were activated.
Additional seat belt safety
precautions
Seat belt use during pregnancy
The seat belt should always be used
during pregnancy. The best way to
protect your unborn child is to protect
yourself by always wearing the seat
belt. Pregnant women should always
wear a lap-shoulder seat belt. Place the
shoulder belt across your chest, routed
between your breasts and away from
your neck. Place the lap belt below your
belly so that it fits SNUGLY across your
hips and pelvic bone, under the rounded
part of the belly.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death to an unborn child during an
accident, pregnant women should
NEVER place the lap portion of the
seat belt above or over the area of the
abdomen where the unborn child is
located.
Seat belt use and children
Infant and small children
Most countries have Child Restraint
System laws which require children
to travel in approved Child Restraint
System devices, including booster seats.
The age at which seat belts can be
used instead of Child Restraint System
differs among countries, so you should
be aware of the specific requirements
in your country, and where you are
travelling. Infant and Child Restraint
System must be properly placed and
installed in a rear seat. For more details
refer to the “Child Restraint Systems”in
this chapter.

WARNING
• Even in vehicles with air bags, you
and your passengers must always
wear the safety belts provided
in order to minimize the risk and
severity of injury in the event of a
collision or rollover.
• SRS and pretensioners contain
explosive chemicals.
If scraping a vehicle without
removing SRS and pretensioners
from a vehicle, it may cause fire.
Before scraping a vehicle, we
recommend that you contact an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
• Keep the SRS parts and wirings away
from water or any liquid. If the SRS
components are inoperative due to
exposure to water or liquids, it may
cause fire or severe injury.
How does the air bag system
operate
• Air bags are activated (able to inflate
if necessary) only when the ignition
switch is placed to the ON or START
position.
• Air bags inflate instantly in the event
of serious frontal or side collision in
order 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.
• Air bag deployment depends on a
number of factors including vehicle
speed, angles of impact and the
density and stiffness of the vehicles or
objects which your vehicle hits in the
collision. The determining, factors are
not limited to those mentioned above.
• The front air bags will completely
inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually 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.

Safety system
Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make a
loud noise and they leave smoke and
powder in the air inside of the vehicle.
This is normal and is a result of the
ignition of the air bag inflator. After the
air bag inflates, you may feel substantial
discomfort in breathing due to the
contact of your chest with both the seat
belt and the air bag, as well as from
breathing the smoke and powder. Open
your doors and/or windows as soon as
possible after impact in order to reduce
discomfort and prevent prolonged
exposure to the smoke and powder.
Though smoke and powder are non-
toxic, it may cause irritation to the skin
(eyes, nose and throat, etc.). If this is
the case, wash and rinse with cold water
immediately and consult with the doctor
if the symptom persists.
WARNING
When the air bags deploy, the air bag
related parts in the steering wheel
are very hot. To prevent injury, do not
touch the air bag storage areas internal
components immediately after an air
bag has inflated.
Do not install a child restraint on
the front passenger’s seat
(if equipped)
OYDESA2042OYDESA2042
Never place a rear-facing child restraint
in the front passenger’s seat. If the air
bag deploys, it would impact the rear-
facing child restraint, causing serious or
fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraints in the front passenger’s
seat either. If the front passenger air bag
inflates, it would cause serious or fatal
injuries to the child.

SRS components and functions
OBI3030006OBI3030006
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 Sensor
(7) Side air bag modules*
(8) Curtain air bag modules *
(9) Side impact sensors *
* : if equippedThe SRSCM continuously 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.
The SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument panel will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition switch
is turned to the ON position, after which
the air bag warning light should go out. WARNING
If any of the following conditions
occurs, this indicates a malfunction
of the SRS. We recommend that the
system be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• The light does not turn on briefly
when you turn the ignition ON.
• The light stays on after illuminating
for approximately 6 seconds.
• The light comes on while the vehicle
is in motion.
• The light blinks when the ignition
switch is in ON position.
