Safety features of your vehicle
If the  PASS AIR BAG  "OFF" indi-
cator   is  illuminated    when   the
front  passenger's  seat  is  occu-
pied by an  adult 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), have that person sit
in the rear seat.
Do not modify or replace the front
passenger seat.  Don't place any-
thing on  or attach anything such
as a blanket or  seat heater to the
front  passenger   seat.  This  can
adversely   affect   the   occupant
classification system.

•  Accident    statistics   show   that
children   are   safer   if  they   are
restrained in the rear, as opposed
to  the   front  seat.   It  is   recom-
mended  that  child  restraints  be
secured in  a rear  seat, including
an  infant  riding  in a  rear-facing
infant seat, a child riding in a  for-
ward-facing   child  seat   and   an
older  child   riding  in  a  booster
seat.
•  Do not place an  electronic device
such as a laptop computer on the
front  passenger  seat.     Its  elec-
tronic field may cause the OCS to
switch to  the "on"  condition and
thus allow  the passenger air  bag
to  deploy  needlessly  in  a   colli-
sion, increasing your repair costs.
•  A smaller-stature adult in the front
passenger’ seat who is not seated
correctly (for example: seat exces-
sively  reclined,   leaning  on   the
door  or  center  console,  or  hips
shifted  forward  in  the  seat)  can
cause a condition where the occu-
pant classification system senses
less  weight than  if  the occupant
were   seated    properly    (sitting
upright  with  the  seatback  in  an
upright position,  centered on  the
seat  cushion with  their  seat belt
on,  legs   comfortably   extended
and their feet on the floor).
•  Air bags can only be used once –
have   an   authorized    HYUNDAI
dealer replace  the air  bag imme-
diately after deployment.
The  occupant classification  sys-
tem  may   not   work  properly   if
water, coffee  or  any other  liquid
including  rain  gets on  the  seat.
Keep  the   front  seat   dry  at   all
times.
Do not sit  on sharp objects such
as   tools   when  occupying    the
front  passenger   seat.  This  can
adversely   affect   the   occupant
classification system.
Do  not use  accessory  seat cov-
ers on the front seats.
(Continued)
This  condition  can  result  in  an
adult potentially being  misclassi-
fied as a child and illumination of
the PASS AIR  BAG "OFF" indica-
tor.
