Your vehicle is equipped with a side air
bag in each front seat. The purpose of
the air bag is to provide the vehicle's
driver and the front passenger with
additional protection than that offered
by the seat belt alone.
The side air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact col-
lisions, depending on the crash sever-
ity, angle, speed and point of impact.
The side air bags 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 side air
bag, take the following precau-
tions:
•
Seat belts must be worn at all
times to help keep occupants
positioned properly.
•
Do not allow passengers to lean
their heads or bodies onto doors,
put their arms on the doors,
stretch their arms out of the win-
dow, or place objects between
the doors and seats.

•
Hold the steering wheel at the 9
o'clock and 3 o'clock positions, to
minimize the risk of injuries to your
hands and arms.
•
Do not use any accessory seat
covers. This could reduce or
prevent the effectiveness of the
system.
•
Do not place any objects over
the air bag or between the air
bag and yourself. Also, do not
attach any objects around the
area the air bag inflates such as
the door, side door glass, front
and rear pillar.
•
Do not put any objects between
the side air bag label and seat
cushion. It could cause harm if
the vehicle is in a crash severe
enough to cause the air bags to
deploy.

•
Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag, etc.) between the
front door and the front seat. Such
objects may become dangerous
projectiles and cause injury if the
supplemental side impact air bag
inflates.
•
Do not install any accessories
on the side or near the side air
bags.
•
Do not cause impact to the doors
when the ignition switch is in the
ON position or this may cause
the side air bags to inflate.
•
If the seat or seat cover is dam-
aged, we recommend that the
system be serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
•
If the seat or seat cover is dam-
aged, we recommend that the
system be serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Inform the dealer that your vehi-
cle is equipped with side air
bags.
