• The side impact air bags are designed
to deploy only during certain side-
impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed and point
of impact.
• The side impact air bags do not only
deploy on the side of the impact but
also on the opposite side.
✽ ✽ NOTICE -
if equipped with
rollover sensor
Also, both sides of the side impact air
bags deploy in certain rollover situa-
tions.
• The side impact air bags are not
designed to deploy in all side impacts.
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 or
rollover*
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
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.

Safety system of your vehicle
(Continued)
• 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 air bag.
• Do not place any objects over the
air bag or between the air bag
and yourself.
• Do not place any objects (an
severe
umbrella, bag, etc.) between the
front door and the front seat.
Such objects may become dan-
gerous projectiles and cause
injury if the supplemental side air
by
the
bag inflates.
• To prevent unexpected deploy-
ment of the side air bag that may
result in personal injury, avoid
impact to the side impact sensor
when the ignition key is on.
• If the seat or seat cover is dam-
aged, have the vehicle checked
and repaired by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Inform that your
vehicle is equipped with side air
bags.
