•
Front and side impact air bags
can injure occupants improp-
erly positioned in the front
seats.
•
Move your seat as far back as
practical from the front air
bags, while still maintaining
control of the vehicle.
•
You and your passengers
should never sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the air
bags. Improperly positioned
drivers and passengers can
be severely injured by inflat-
ing air bags.
•
Never lean against the door or
center console – always sit in
an upright position.

•
No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular phone holder,
cup holder, perfume or stick-
ers) should be placed over or
near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, windshield glass, and
the front passenger's panel
above the glove box. Such
objects could cause harm if
the vehicle is in a crash severe
enough to cause the air bags
to deploy.
•
Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring or other com-
ponents of the SRS system.
Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental deployment
of the air bags or by rendering
the SRS inoperative.
•
If the SRS air bag warning
light remains illuminated
while the vehicle is being driv-
en, we recommend that the
system be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

•
Air bags can only be used
once – we recommend that
the system be replaced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
•
The SRS is designed to deploy
the front air bags only when an
impact is sufficiently severe
and when the impact angle is
less than 30° from the forward
longitudinal axis of the vehi-
cle. Additionally, the air bags
will only deploy once. Seat
belts must be worn at all times.
•
Front air bags are not intend-
ed to deploy in side-impact,
rear-impact or rollover crash-
es. In addition, front air bags
will not deploy in frontal
crashes below the deploy-
ment threshold.
•
A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front
seat. The infant or child could
be severely injured or killed
by an air bag deployment in
case of an accident.
