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 POWER button is in
the ON position, or continuously
remains on, have your vehicle imme-
diately 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 system
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.

Additional Safety Precautions
Passengers should not move out
of or change seats while the vehi-
cle is moving.A passenger who is
not wearing a seat belt during a
crash or emergency stop can be
thrown against the inside of the vehi-
cle, against other occupants, or be
ejected from the vehicle.
Do not use any accessories on seat belts. Devices claiming to
improve occupant comfort or reposi-tion the seat belt can reduce the pro-
tection provided by the seat belt and
increase the chance of serious injury
in a crash
Do not modify the front seats.Modification of the front seats could
interfere with the operation of the
supplemental restraint system sens-
ing components or side air bags.
Do not place items under the front seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the opera-
tion of the supplemental restraintsystem sensing components and
wiring harnesses. Do not cause impact to the doors.Impact to the doors when the
POWER button is in the ON position
may cause the air bags to inflate. Modifications to accommodate dis- abilities.
If you require modification to your
vehicle to accommodate a disability,
contact the HYUNDAI Auto Canadaat 1-888-216-2626.
Adding equipment to or modify-
ing your air bag equipped vehi- cle
If you modify your vehicle by chang-
ing your vehicle's frame, bumper sys-tem, front end or side sheet metal or
ride height, this may affect the oper-
ation of your vehicle's air bag sys-tem.
(Continued)
If components of the air bag
system must be discarded, or
if the vehicle must be
scrapped, certain safety pre-
cautions must be observed.
Consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for the nec-
essary information. Failure to
follow these precautionscould increase the risk of per-

Maintenance
FFUU SSEE SS
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels,
one located in the driver's side panel
bolster, the other in the motor com-
partment near the battery. If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted or broken.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver's side
fuse panel. Before replacing a blown
fuse, turn the vehicle and all switch-
es off, and then disconnect the neg-
ative battery cable. Always replace a
blown fuse with one of the same rat-ing.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type, and multi fuse for higher
amperage ratings. Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove
fuses because it may cause a
short circuit and damage the sys-tem.
NOTICE
i
NEVER replace a fuse with any-
thing but another fuse of thesame rating.
A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage and possibly
cause a fire.
Do not install a wire or alu-
minum foil instead of the
proper fuse - even as a tem-
porary repair. It may cause
extensive wiring damage and
possibly a fire.
