Occupant Classification System - Hyundai Entourage 2008 Owner's Manual

Features of your vehicle
(Continued)
• The SRS can function only when
the ignition key is in the "ON"
position. If the SRS "AIR BAG"
warning light does not illuminate,
or continuously remains on after
illuminating for about 6 seconds
when the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position, or after the
engine is started, comes on while
driving, the SRS is not working
properly. If this occurs, have your
vehicle immediately inspected by
your Hyundai dealer.
• Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turn
the ignition key to the "LOCK"
position and remove the ignition
key. Never remove or replace the
air bag related fuse(s) when the
ignition key is in the "ON" posi-
tion. Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS "AIR BAG"
warning light to illuminate.

Occupant classification system

Your vehicle is equipped with an occu-
pant classification system in the front
passenger's seat.
The occupant classification system is
designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated front passenger and
determine if the passenger's front air bag
should be enabled (may inflate) or not.
The driver's front air bag is not affected
or controlled by the occupant classifica-
tion system.
If the front passenger seat is occupied by
a person that the system determines to
be of adult size, and he/she sits properly
(sitting upright with the seatback in an
upright position, centered on the seat
cushion with their seat belt on, legs com-
fortably extended and their feet on the
floor), the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator will be turned off and the front
passenger's air bag will be able to inflate,
if necessary, in frontal crashes.
You will find the "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicator on the center facia panel.
OVQ036012N
This system detects the conditions 1~4
in the following table and activates or
deactivates front passenger air bags
based on these conditions.
