Seats & Safety System
Do not install a Child Restraint
System on the Front Passenger's
Seat
OHI039193N
Even though your vehicle is equipped
with the OCS, never install a child
restraint in the front passenger's seat. An
inflating air bag can forcefully strike a
child or child restraint resulting in serious
or fatal injury.
WARNING
NEVER use a rearward facing Child
Restraint on a seat protected by an
ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or
SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur.
Why didn't my air bag go off in
a collision?
There are certain types of accidents in
which the air bag would not be expected
to provide additional protection. These
include rear impacts, second or third
collisions in multiple impact accidents, as
well as low speed impacts. Damage to the
vehicle indicates a collision energy
absorption, and is not an indicator of
whether or not an air bag should have
inflated.

Air bag collision sensors
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag deploying
unexpectedly and causing serious injury
or death:
• Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where air bags or
sensors are installed.
• Do not perform maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors. If the
location or angle of the sensors is
altered, the air bags may deploy when
they should not or may not deploy
when they should.
• Installing bumper guards with
non-genuine Hyundai or
non-equivalent parts may adversely
affect the collision and airbag
deployment performance.
To ensure correct function of the airbag
system, have the bumper replaced with
genuine Hyundai part or the equivalent
(of the genuine part) specified for your
vehicle.
• Press the Start/Stop button to the OFF
or ACC position and wait for 3 minutes
when the vehicle is being towed to
prevent inadvertent air bag
deployment.
• Have all air bag repairs conducted by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
