Why Didn't My Air Bag Go Off in a Collision?
Air bags are not designed to inflate in
every collision.There are certain
types of accidents in which the air bag
would not be expected to provide
additional protection. These include
rear impacts, second or third colli-
sions in multiple impact accidents, as
well as low speed impacts. Damage
to the vehicle indicates a collision
energy absorption, and is not an indi-cator of whether or not an air bag
should have inflated.
Air bag collision sensors
NEVER place a rear-facing or
front-facing child restraint in
the front passenger's seat of
the vehicle.
An inflating frontal air bag
could forcefully strike a child
resulting in serious injury ordeath.
Always properly restrain chil-
dren in an appropriate childrestraint in the rear seat of the
vehicle.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag
deploying unexpectedly and
causing serious injury or death:
Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where air
bags or sensors are installed.
WARNING
Do not perform maintenance
on or around the air bag sen-
sors. If the location or angle of
the sensors is altered, the air
bags may deploy when they
should not or may not deploy
when they should.
Do not install bumper guards
or replace the bumper with a
non-genuine HYUNDAI parts.
This may adversely affect the
collision and air bag deploy-
ment performance.
Place the POWER button to the OFF position when the
vehicle is being towed to pre-
vent inadvertent air bag
deployment.
Have all air bag repairs conduct-
ed by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

2-68
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.

Convenient features of your vehicle
Any non-factory equipment oraccessories have been installed, or
if the vehicle bumper height or sen-sor installation has been modified.
Detecting range may decrease when:
Outside air temperature isextremely hot or cold.
Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m (40 inches) and narrower than
14 cm (6 inches) in diameter.
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
Sharp or slim objects such asropes, chains or small poles.
Objects, which tend to absorb sen- sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
Parking Distance Warning
(Reverse/Forward) system pre-
cautions
The Parking Distance Warning (Reverse/Forward) system may not
operate consistently in some cir-cumstances depending on the
speed of the vehicle and theshapes of the objects detected.
The Parking Distance Warning (Reverse/Forward) system may
malfunction if the vehicle bumperheight or sensor installation has
been modified or damaged. Any
non-factory installed equipment or
accessories may also interfere with
the sensor performance.
The sensor may not recognize objects less than 40 cm (15 in.)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
When the sensor is blocked with snow, dirt, debris, or ice, the sys-
tem may be inoperative until the
snow or ice melts, or the debris is
removed. Use a soft cloth to wipe
debris away from the sensor. Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
Do not spray the sensors or its sur- rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Doing so may
cause the sensors to fail to operate
normally.
Your new vehicle warranty does
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries toits occupants related to a
Parking Distance Warning
(Reverse/Forward) system.
Always drive safely and cau-
tiously.

system until the "Searching for
parking space" stage.
(2) The SCC system is deactivated when the RSPA system enters
the "Remote Smart Parking
assist" stage.
(3) After the RSPA system is com- plete or deactivated, the SCC
system maintains the deactiva-
tion status. 2. Auto Hold (1)
The activated Auto Hold is
switched to deactivation status
when the RSPA system is activat-ed.
(2) The Auto Hold button will not respond while the RSPA system
is in activation.
(3) After the RSPA system is com- plete or deactivated, the Auto
Hold will return to the state before
the RSPA system was activated. 3. Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
(1) Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
