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.
• 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 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
seated properly (sitting

upright position, centered on the

on, legs comfortably extended
and their feet on the floor).

This condition can result in an
adult potentially being misclassi-
fied as a child and illumination of
