Why didn't my air bag go off in a
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 col-
lisions in multiple impact accidents, as
well as low speed impacts. Damage to
the vehicle indicates a collision energy
absorption, and is not an indicator of
whether or not an air bag should have
inflated.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag deploy-
ing 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.
• Do not perform maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors. If the loca-
tion or angle of the sensors is altered,

the air bags may deploy when they
should not or may not deploy when
they should.
• Installing bumper guards with non-
genuine Hyundai or non-equivalent
parts may adversely affect the colli-
sion and airbag deployment perfor-
mance.
To ensure correct function of the air-
bag system we recommend to replace
the bumper with genuine HYUNDAI
part or the equivalent (of the genuine
part) specified for your vehicle.
• Place the ignition switch to the LOCK/
OFF or ACC position, when the vehicle
is being towed to prevent inadvertent
air bag deployment.
• We recommend that all air bag repairs
performed by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
