Safety system of your vehicle
The Pre-Tensioner Seat Belt System
consists mainly of the following com-
ponents. Their locations are shown in
the illustration above:
1. SRS air bag warning light
2. Retractor pre-tensioner
3. SRS control module
4. Emergency Fastening Device
System
Information
The sensor that activates the SRS air
bag is connected with the pre–tension-
er seat belts. The SRS air bag warning
light on the instrument panel will illu-
minate for approximately 6 seconds
after the Engine Start/Stop button in
the ON position, and then it should
turn off.
If the pre-tensioner is not working
properly, the warning light will illumi-
nate even if the SRS air bag is not mal-
functioning. If the warning light does
not illuminate, stays illuminated or
illuminates when the vehicle is being
driven, have an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products inspect the
pre-tensioner seat belts and SRS air
bags as soon as possible.
Information
• Both the driver's and front passen-
ger's pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in certain frontal or side
collisions or rollovers.
• When the pre-tensioner seat belts
are activated, a loud noise may be
heard and fine dust, which may
appear to be smoke, may be visible
in the passenger compartment.
These are normal operating condi-
tions and are not hazardous.
• Although it is non-toxic, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation and
should not be inhaled for prolonged
periods. Wash all exposed skin areas
thoroughly after an accident in
which the pre-tensioner seat belts
were activated.
• The pre-tensioner seat belt system
may get adversely affected by
installing an audio system to the
center console or welding/painting
the frontal vehicle body.
In this case, consult an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded prod-
ucts. The air bag warning light illu-
minates, if there is a malfunction
with the pre-tensioner seat belt sys-
tem.
• In following situations, immediately
have the air bag system and the pre-
tensioner seat belt system checked
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
- The air bag warning light does not
illuminate at all after turning ON
the engine.
- The air bag warning light remains
ON over 6 seconds after turning
ON the engine.
