Hyundai i20 Active 2016 Owner's Manual page 61

WARNING
•
The side impact air bag is sup-
plemental to the driver's and the
passenger's seat belt systems
and is not a substitute for them.
Therefore your seat belts must
be worn at all times while the
vehicle is in motion. The air bags
deploy only in certain side
impact conditions
enough to cause significant
injury to the vehicle occupants.
•
For best protection from the side
impact air bag system and to
avoid being injured by the
deploying side impact air bag,
both front seat occupants should
sit in an upright position with the
seat belt properly fastened. The
driver's hands should be placed
on the steering wheel at the 9:00
and 3:00 positions. The passen-
ger's arms and hands should be
placed on their laps.

•
Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
•
Use of seat covers could reduce
or prevent the effectiveness of
the system.
•
Do not install any accessories
on the side or near the side
impact air bag.
•
Do not place any objects over
severe
the air bag or between the air
bag and yourself.
•
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.
•
To prevent unexpected deploy-
ment of the side impact air bag
that may result in personal injury,
avoid impact to the side impact
sensor when the ignition switch
is on.

•
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 impact
air bags.
