FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
1-12
NOTE:
Be sure to read information about the SRS
on the labels provided on the backside of
the sun visor and in the glove box.
WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed
to work with, and be supplemental to, the
driver's and the passenger's three point
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. In addition, the airbags deploy
only in certain frontal impact conditions
severe enough to likely cause significant
injury to the vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags
only when an impact is sufficiently se-
vere and when the impact angle is less
than 30° from the forward longitudinal
axis of the vehicle and will not deploy in
side, rear or rollover impacts. Additional-
ly, the airbags will only deploy once.
Thus, seat belts must be worn at all
times.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
(AIRBAG) SYSTEM (Not all models)
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 centre 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/or the
front passenger with additional protection than
that offered by the seat-belt system alone, in
case of a frontal impact of sufficient severity.

Pre-tensioner Seat Belt
(Not all models)
Ordinarily the pre-tensioner seat belt operates
in the same way as E.L.R (Emergency Locking
Retractor) type (When vehicles stop suddenly,
the belt will lock into the position. It will also
lock if you try to lean forward too quickly.).
However, when vehicles crash, the retractor
rewinds the belt webbing. This will restrain the
passenger movement quickly and also reduce
the slack between passenger and belt webbing.
NOTE:
o When the pre-tensioner seat belt is acti-
vated, there may be an explosion noise.
This noise is normal and is not hazard-
ous.
o Pre-tensioner seat belt is designed to
operate only when a sufficiently severe
impact occurs and it will be only operat-
ed once.
WARNING:
If the pre-tensioner seat belt was activated,
never attempt to replace it by yourself. It
must be replaced by an authorized Hyundai
Dealer.
