2C_CurtainAirbagDeployment
Curtain airbags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and the
rear outboard seat occupants in certain
side impact collisions.
The curtain airbags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity.
For the vehicle equipped with a rollover
sensor, the side and/or curtain airbags
and pretensioners on both sides of the
vehicle may deploy if a rollover or
possible rollover is detected.
The curtain airbags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact or rollover
situations.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating curtain airbag:
• Seat belts must be worn at all times to
help keep occupants positioned
properly.
• Properly secure a Child Restraint
System as far away from the door as
possible.
• Do not place any objects over the
airbag. Also, do not attach any objects
around the area the airbag inflates such
as door, side door glass, front and rear
pillar, and roof side rail.
• Do not hang other objects except
clothes, especially hard or breakable
objects near airbag locations. In an
accident, it may cause vehicle damage
or personal injury.
• Do not allow passengers to lean their
heads or bodies onto doors, put their
arms on the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place objects
between the doors and seats.
• Do not open or repair the side curtain
airbags yourself. If necessary, have the
airbag inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
