- Never place feet on the dashboard.
!
WARNING:
o A smaller-stature adult who is not
seated correctly (for example: seat
excessively reclined, leaning on the
center console, or hips shifted for-
ward in the seat) can cause a condi-
tion where the advanced frontal
airbag system senses less weight
than if the occupant were seated
properly (sitting upright with the
seatback in an upright position, cen-
B990A05O
tered on the seat cushion with their
seat belt on, legs comfortably ex-
tended and their feet on the floor).
This condition can result in an adult
potentially being misclassified and
illumination of the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator.
!
WARNING:
o Do not allow a passenger to ride in
the front seat when the "PASSEN-
GER AIRBAG OFF" indicator is illu-
minated, because the airbag will not
deploy in the event of a crash. If the
"PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indi-
cator remains illuminated after the
passenger repositions themselves
properly and the car is restarted,
Hyundai recommends that passen-
ger move to the rear seat because
the passenger's front airbag will not
deploy.
o The "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator will not change according
to the occupants posture after the
vehicle has been running for 30 sec-
onds. Front seat passengers must
stay properly seated to avoid seri-
ous injury from a deploying airbag.
