Driver's Airbag
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of
the system's presence are the letters "SRS AIR
BAG" embossed on the airbag pad cover in the
steering wheel and the passenger's side front
panel pad above the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed
under the pad covers in the center of the
steering wheel and the passenger's side front
panel above the glove box. The purpose of the
SRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and the
front passenger with additional protection when
used together with the seat belt, in case of a
frontal impact.
