2015 Hyundai Grand I10 Owners Manual

Safety system of your vehicle
Air  bag   deployment   depends  on   a
number  of   factors  including   vehicle
speed, angles of impact and the densi-
ty  and   stiffness   of  the   vehicles  or
objects   which  your   vehicle  impacts
during a collision. The determining fac-
tors are not limited to those mentioned
above.
•  There  are  even circumstances  under
which  contact  with   the  air  bag  can
cause  fatal  injuries,  especially  if  the
occupant   is   positioned   excessively
close to the air bag.
Driver’s front air bag (1)
You can take  steps to reduce  the risk of
being injured by  an inflating air bag. The
greatest risk is sitting too  close to the air
bag. An air  bag needs  about 25 cm  (10
inches)  of space  to  inflate. It  is recom-
mended that drivers allow at least 25  cm
(10  inches)  between  the  center  of  the
steering wheel and the chest.
The   front  air   bags   will   completely
inflate and deflate in an instant. It is vir-
tually impossible for  you to see the  air
bags  inflate  during  an  accident. It  is
much  more likely  that you  will  simply
see the  deflated air bags  hanging out
of their storage compartments after the
collision.
OLMB033054
When the  SRSCM detects  a sufficiently
severe impact to  the front of the vehicle,
it  will automatically  deploy  the  front air
bags.
To help provide protection, the air bags
must  inflate rapidly.  The speed  of  air
bag   inflation   is  a   consequence   of
extremely short time in which  to inflate
the air bag  between the occupant and
the vehicle structures before  the occu-
pant  impacts   those  structures.   This
speed  of inflation  reduces  the risk  of
serious or  life-threatening injuries  and
is  thus  a  necessary  part  of  air  bag
design.
However, the rapid air bag inflation can
also cause  injuries which  can include
facial  abrasions,  bruises  and  broken
bones because the inflation speed also
causes the  air bags  to expand  with a
great deal of force.
