The purpose of the SRS is to provide the
vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger
with additional protection than that offered
by the seat belt system alone in case of a
frontal impact of sufficient severity.
The SRS uses sensors to gather informa-
tion about the driver's seat position, the
driver's and front passenger's seat belt
usage and impact severity.
The driver's seat track position sensor,
which is installed on the seat track, deter-
mines if the seat is fore or aft of a reference
position. The seat belt buckle sensors de-
termine if the driver and front passenger's
seat belts are fastened. These sensors
provide the ability to control the SRS de-
ployment based on how close the driver's
seat is to the steering wheel, whether or not
the seat belts are fastened, and how se-
vere the impact is.
The advanced SRS offers the ability to
control the airbag inflation with two levels.
A first stage level is provided for moderate-
severity impacts. A second stage level is
provided for more severe impacts.
According to the impact severity, seating
position and seat belt usage, the
SRSCM(SRS Control Module) controls the
airbag inflation. Failure to properly wear
seat belts can increase the risk or severity
of injury in an accident.
Additionally, your Hyundai is equipped
with an occupant classification system in
the front passenger's seat. The occupant
classification system detects the presence
of a passenger in the front passenger's
seat and will turn off the front passenger's
airbag under certain conditions. For more
detail, see "Occupant Classification Sys-
tem" later in this section.
