WARNING:
Rear impact
o
As its name implies, the SRS is de-
signed to work with, and be supplemen-
tal 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 addi-
tion, the airbags deploy only in certain
frontal impact conditions severe enough
to likely cause significant injury to the
vehicle occupants.

o
o
Front airbags are not intended to de-
ploy in side-impact, rear-impact or
rollover crashes. In addition, airbags
will not normally deploy in frontal
crashes below the deployment thresh-
old speed.
For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, all occupants includ-
ing the driver should always wear their
seat belts whether or not an airbag is
also provided at their seating position
to minimize the risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a crash. Do not sit
or lean unnecessarily close to the airbag
while the vehicle is in motion.
HFC1073
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemen-
tal 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.
o
The SRS is designed to deploy the
airbags only when an impact is suffi-
ciently severe and when the impact angle
is less than 30° from the forward longi-
tudinal axis of the vehicle and will not
deploy in side, rear or rollover impacts.
Additionally, the airbags will only de-
ploy once. Thus, seat belts must be
worn at all times.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags in-
stalled 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.
o
The SRS airbag system must deploy
very rapidly to provide protection in a
crash. If an occupant is out of position
because of not wearing a seat belt, the
airbag may forcefully contact the occu-
pant causing serious or fatal injuries.
