The seat belt pre-tensioner system
consists mainly of the following com-
ponents.
Their locations are shown in the illustra-
tion.
1. SRS airbag warning light
2. Seat belt pre-tensioner assembly
3. SRS control module
!
WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a
pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn cor-
rectly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to
the correct position.
NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front
passenger's pre-tensioner seat
belts will be activated in certain
frontal collisions. The pre-
tensioner seat belts can be acti-
vated alone or, where the frontal
collision is severe enough, to-
gether with the airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts
are activated, a loud noise may
be heard and fine dust, which
may appear to be smoke, may be
visible in the passenger compart-
ment. These are normal operat-
ing conditions and are not haz-
ardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation
and should not be breathed for
prolonged periods. Wash your
hands and face thoroughly after
an accident in which the pre-
tensioner seat belts were activated.
!
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates
the SRS airbag is connected with
pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS
airbag warning light on the
AIR
BAG
instrument panel will come on
for approximately 6 seconds af-
ter the ignition key has been
turned to the "ON" position, and
then it should turn off.
o If pre-tensioner seat belt is not
working properly, this warning
light will illuminate even if the
SRS system is not functioning. If
the SRS airbag warning light does
not illuminate when the ignition
key is turned to "ON", or if it re-
mains illuminated after coming
for approximately 6 seconds, or if
it illuminates while the vehicle is
being driven, please have a
Hyundai authorised repairer in-
spect the pre-tensioner seat belts
and SRS airbag system as soon as
possible.
