SRS Components and Functions

The SRS consists of the following compo-
nents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- Knee Bolster
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elements
while the ignition is "ON" to determine if a
frontal or near-frontal impact is severe enough
to require airbag deployment.

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on
SSA1110B
the instrument panel will blink for about 6
seconds after the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position or after the engine is started,
after which the SRI should go out.
The airbag modules are located both in the
center of the steering wheel and in the front
passenger's panel above the glove box.
When the SRSCM detects a considerable
impact to the front of the vehicle, it will auto-
matically deploy the airbags.
Passenger's Airbag
SSA1110C
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly
into the pad covers will separate under pres-
sure from the expansion of the airbags. Fur-
ther opening of the covers then allows full
inflation of the airbags.
A fully inflated airbag in combination with a
properly worn seat belt slows the driver's or
the passenger's forward motion, thus reduc-
ing the risk of head or chest injury.
SSA1110D
After complete inflation, the airbag immedi-
ately starts deflating, enabling the driver to
maintain forward visibility.
