tection 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 front side of the sun visor and in
the glove box.
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. In
addition, the airbags deploy only
in certain frontal impact condi-
tions severe enough to cause
significant injury 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.
o Front airbags are not intended to
deploy in light collisions in which
protection can be provided by
the seat belt alone.
o Front airbags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-im-
pact or rollover crashes. In addi-
tion, airbags will not deploy in
frontal crashes below the deploy-
ment threshold speed.
o The driver should sit back as far
as possible while still maintain-
ing control of the vehicle. If you
are sitting too close to the airbag,
it can cause death or serious
injury when it inflates.
o No objects should be placed over
or near the airbag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, and the front passenger's
panel above the glove box,
because any such object could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause
the airbags to inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must
be replaced by an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
