Side Impact Airbag
Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impact
airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the
airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or
front passenger with protection in a side impact
in addition to that offered by the seat belt alone.
The side impact airbags are designed to deploy
only during certain side impact collisions, de-
pending on the crash severity, angle, speed and
point of impact. The side impact airbags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact situations.

WARNING:
o The side impact airbag is supplemental
to the driver's and the passenger's seat
belt systems and is not a substitute for
them. Your seat belts must be worn at all
times while the vehicle is in motion. The
airbags deploy only in certain side im-
pact conditions severe enough to cause
significant injury to the vehicle occu-
pants.
!
WARNING:
o To receive the best protection from the
side impact airbag system and to avoid
being injured by the deploying side im-
pact airbag, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright position with
their feet on the floor and the seat belt
properly fastened. The driver's hands
should be placed on the steering wheel
at the 9:00 and 3:00 o'clock positions.
The passenger's arms and hands should
be placed on their laps.

o Do not install any accessory seat covers.
o Use of seat covers could reduce or pre-
vent the effectiveness of the system.
o Do not install any accessories on the
side or near the side impact airbag.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag
or between the airbag and yourself.
o 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 airbag
inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deployment of
the side impact air bag that may result in
personal injury, avoid impact to the side
impact airbag sensor when the ignition
key is on.
