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 protec-
tion. These include rear impacts, sec-
ond or third collisions in multiple
impact accidents, as well as low
speed impacts. Damage to the vehicle
indicates a collision energy absorp-
tion, and is not an indicator of whether
or not an air bag should have inflated.
Air bag collision sensors
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 sen-
sors. 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.
• Do not install bumper guards or
replace the bumper with a non-
genuine part.This may adverse-
ly affect the collision and air
bag deployment performance.

WARNING

• Place the POWER button to
the OFF position, when the
vehicle is being towed to pre-
vent inadvertent air bag
deployment.
• We recommend that all air bag
repairs are conducted by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
