Hyundai Accent 2013 Owner's Manual page 67

• Just before impact, drivers often brake
heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the
front portion of the vehicle causing it to
"ride" under a vehicle with a higher
ground clearance. Air bags may not
inflate in this "under-ride" situation
because deceleration forces that are
detected by sensors may be signifi-
cantly reduced by such "under-ride"
collisions.

• Air bags do not inflate in rollover acci-
dents because vehicle can not detect
rollover accident.
However, side and/or curtain air bags
may inflate when the vehicle is rolled
over after side impact collision.

• Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle
collides with objects such as utility
poles or trees, where the point of
impact is concentrated to one area and
the full force of the impact is not deliv-
ered to the sensors.
