Where are the airbags?

Driver’s and passenger’s

airbags (if equipped)

WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious injury

or death from an inflating front air-

bags, take the following precau-

tions:

Driver’s front airbag

• Seat belts must be worn at all

times to help keep occupants posi-

tioned properly.

• Move your seat as far back as pos-

sible from front airbags, whilst still

maintaining control of the vehicle.

• Never lean against the door or cen-

tre console.

OAC3033036R

• Do not allow the front passenger

to place their feet or legs on the

dashboard.

Passenger's front airbag

• No objects (such as crash pad

cover, mobile phone holder, cup

holder, air fresheners or stickers)

should be placed over or near the

airbag modules on the steering

wheel, instrument panel, wind-

screen glass, and the front pas-

senger’s panel above the glove

box. Such objects could cause

harm if the vehicle is in a crash

severe enough to cause the air-

bags to deploy.

OAC3039037R

Your vehicle is equipped with a Sup-

plemental Restraint System (SRS)

and lap/shoulder belts at both the

driver and passenger seating posi-

tions.

• Do not attach any objects on front

windscreen and inside mirror.

• Hold the steering wheel at the 9

o’clock and 3 o’clock positions, to

minimise the risk of injuries to

your hands and arms.

The SRS consists of airbags which are

located in the center of the steering

wheel and the passenger’s side front

panel pad above the glove box. The air-

bags are labelled with the letters “AIR-

BAG” embossed on the pad covers.

The purpose of the SRS is to provide

the vehicle’s driver and front passen-

gers with additional protection than that

offered by the seat belt system alone in

case of a frontal impact of sufficient

severity.

Passenger’s front airbag ON/OFF

switch (if equipped)

The purpose of the switch is to disable

the passenger’s front airbag in order to

transport occupants who are at

increased risk for airbag-related injury

due to age, size, or medical condition.

OAC3039017R

To deactivate the passenger’s front air-

bag:

Insert the key or a similar rigid device

into the passenger’s front airbag ON/

OFF switch and turn it to the OFF posi-

tion. The passenger airbag OFF indica-

tor ( ) will illuminate and stay on until

the passenger’s front airbag is reacti-

vated.

If the passenger’s front airbag ON/

OFF switch malfunctions, the follow-

ing conditions may occur:

• The airbag warning light ( ) on

the instrument cluster will illumi-

nate.

• The passenger airbag OFF indica-

tor ( ) will not illuminate and the

ON indicator ( ) will come on and

go off after about 60 seconds. The

passenger’s front airbag will

inflate in a frontal impact even

ger’s front airbag or have your pas-

senger move to the rear seat.

Side airbags (if equipped)

WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious injury

or death from an inflating side air-

bag, take the following precautions:

• Seat belts must be worn at all

times to help keep occupants posi-

tioned properly.

• Do not allow 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 seats.

OAC3039019TU

• Do not use any accessory seat

covers. This could reduce or pre-

vent the effectiveness of the sys-

tem.

• Do not place any objects over the

airbag or between the airbag and

yourself. Also, do not attach any

objects around the area the airbag

inflates such as the door, side

door glass, front and rear pillar.

OAC3039020R

Your vehicle is equipped with a side air-

bag in each front seat.

The purpose of the airbag is to provide

the vehicle’s driver and the front pas-

senger with additional protection than

that offered by the seat belt alone.

The side airbags are designed to deploy

only during certain side impact colli-

sions, depending on the crash severity.

• Do not place any objects between

the door and the seat. They may

become dangerous projectiles if

the side airbag inflates.

• Do not install any accessories on

the side or near the side airbags.

For vehicles equipped with a rollover

sensor the side and/or curtain airbags

and pre-tensioners on both sides of the

vehicle may deploy if a rollover or pos-

sible rollover is detected.

The side airbags are not designed to

deploy in all side impact or rollover situ-

ations.

03

• Do not put any objects between

the side airbag label and seat

cushion. It could cause harm if the

vehicle is in a crash severe enough

to cause the airbags to deploy.

Curtain airbags (if equipped)

• Do not cause impact to the doors

when the ignition switch is in the

ON position or this may cause the

side airbags to inflate.

• If the seat or seat cover is dam-

aged, we recommend that the sys-

tem be serviced by a HYUNDAI

authorised repairer.

OAC3039021TU

OAC3039029R

Curtain airbags are located along both

sides of the roof rails above the front

and rear doors.

They are designed to help protect the

heads of the front seat occupants and

the rear outboard seat occupants in

certain side impact collisions.

The curtain airbags are designed to

deploy only during certain side impact

collisions, depending on the crash

severity.

For vehicles equipped with a rollover

sensor the side and/or curtain airbags

on both sides of the vehicle may deploy

if a rollover or possible rollover is

detected.

The curtain airbags are not designed to

deploy in all side impact or rollover situ-

ations.

Do not hang heavy items on the coat

hooks for safety reasons.
