Safety features of your vehicle
•
The side impact air bags are designed
to deploy during certain side-impact col-
lisions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and point of impact.
The side impact air bags do not only
deploy on the side of the impact but
also on the opposite side.
The side and/or curtain airbags on
both sides of the vehicle will deploy if a
rollover or possible rollover is detected.
The side impact air bags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact or
rollover situations.

WARNING
•
•
•
Do not install any accessories on
the side or near the side impact
air bag.
Do not place any objects over the
air bag or between the air bag
and yourself.
Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag, etc.) between the
front door and the front seat.
Such objects may become dan-
gerous projectiles and cause
injury if the supplemental side
impact air bag inflates.
•
The side air bag is supplemental to
the driver's and the passenger's
seat belt systems and is not a sub-
stitute for them. Therefore your
seat belts must be worn at all times
while the vehicle is in operation.
•
•
•
• For best protection from the side
impact air bag system and to
the
deploying side impact air bag,
both front seat occupants should
sit in an upright position with the
seat belt properly fastened. The
driver's hands should be placed
on the steering wheel at the 9:00
and 3:00 positions. The passen-
ger's arms and hands should be
placed on their laps.

WARNING
• To prevent unexpected deploy-
ment of the side impact air bag
that may result in personal injury,
avoid impact to the side impact
sensor when the ignition switch
is on.
• If the seat or seat cover is dam-
aged, have the vehicle checked
and repaired by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer because your
vehicle is equipped with side
impact air bags and an occupant
classification system.
Do not allow the passengers to lean
their heads or bodies onto doors,
put their arms on the doors, stretch
their arms out of the window, or
place objects between the doors
and passengers when they are
seated on seats equipped with side
and/or curtain air bags.
•
Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
Use of seat covers could reduce
or prevent the effectiveness of
the system.
