FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

Driver's Front Airbag
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supple-
mental Restraint (Airbag) System and
lap/shoulder belts at both the driver and
passenger seating positions. The indi-
cations of the system's presence are
the letters "SRS AIR BAG" embossed
on the airbag pad cover in the steering
wheel and the front passenger's panel
pad above the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags
installed under the pad covers in the
center of the steering wheel and the
front passenger's panel above the glove
box.

Driver's and Passenger's Front
Airbag
!
The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the vehicle's driver or the front passen-
ger with additional protection than that
offered by the seat belt system alone,
in case of a frontal impact of sufficient
severity.
NOTE:
Be sure to read information about
the SRS on the labels provided on
the topside of the sun visor.
WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is
designed to work with, and be
supplemental to, the driver's and
the passenger's three point seat
belt systems and is not a substi-
tute for them. Therefore your seat
belts must be worn at all times
while the vehicle is in motion. The
airbags deploy only in certain
frontal impact conditions severe
enough to cause significant in-
jury to the vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy
the airbags only when an impact
is sufficiently severe and when
the impact angle is less than 30°
from the forward longitudinal axis
of the vehicle and will not deploy
in side, rear or rollover impacts.
Additionally, the airbags will only
deploy once. Thus, seat belts must
be worn at all times.
