Safety System
WARNING
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 three to six seconds
when the Engine Start/Stop button is
in the ON position.

[The light stays on after illuminating
for approximately three to six
seconds.

[The light comes on while the vehicle
is in motion.

[The light blinks when the engine is
running.
Have an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products inspect the SRS
as soon as possible if any of these
conditions occur.
During a moderate to severe frontal
collision, sensors will detect the
vehicle’s rapid deceleration. If the rate of
deceleration is high enough, the control
unit will inflate the front air bags, at the
time and with the force needed.
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 by supporting the side upper
body area.
[Air bags are activated (able to inflate
if necessary) only when the Engine
Start/Stop button is in the ON or
START position and it can be activated
within about 3 minutes after the
engine is turned off.

[Air bags inflate in the event of certain
frontal or side collisions 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.

[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.

[In addition to inflating in serious side
collisions, vehicles equipped with a
rollover sensor, side and/or curtain air
bags and front center side air bag will
inflate if the sensing system detects a
rollover.
When a rollover is detected, curtain
air bags will remain inflated longer to
help provide protection from ejection,
especially when used in conjunction
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 occupant 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 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 space to inflate.
It is recommended that drivers sit as far
as possible between the center of the
steering wheel and the chest while still
maintaining control of the vehicle.„Driver’s front air bag (1)
OHI038171L
When the SRSCM detects a sufficiently
severe impact to the front of the vehicle,
it will automatically deploy the front air
bags.
„Driver’s front air bag (2)
OHI038172L
Upon deployment, tear seams molded
directly into the pad covers will separate
under pressure from the expansion of the
air bags. Further opening of the covers
allows full inflation of the air bags.
A fully inflated air bag, in combination
with a properly worn seat belt, slows the
driver’s or the front passenger’s forward
motion, reducing the risk of head and
chest injury.
