GENERAL INFORMATION - SRS Airbag
SRS AIRBAG
SYSTEM COMPONENT
ERKB012A
The Hyundai TIBURON/COUPE is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (AIRBAG) to provide the vehicle's
driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that offered by the seat-belt system alone, in case
of a frontal or lateral impact of sufficient severity.
When handling airbag components (removal, installation or inspection, etc.), always follow the directions given in
the repair manual for the relevant model to prevent the occurrence of accidents and airbag malfunction.
Also take the following precautions when repairing the body:
1. Work must be started after approximately 30 seconds or longer from the time the ignition switch is turned
to the LOCK position and the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery. (The airbag system
is equipped with a back-up power source so that if work is started within 30 seconds of disconnecting the
negative (-) terminal cable of the battery, the airbag may be deployed.)
When the negative(-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, memory of the clock and audio systems
will be cancelled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memorized by the audio memory
system. Then when work is finished, reset the audio system as before and adjust the clock.
2. When using electric welding, first disconnect the SRSCM connectors under the lower crash pad center.
3. Store the airbag module where the ambient temperature remains below 80°C (176°F), without high humidity
and away from electrical noise.
4. WARNING/CAUTION labels are attached to the periphery of the airbag components.
Refer to the TIBURON/COUPE SHOP MANUAL.
