Do not install a Child Restraint
System on the Front Passenger's
Seat
B0073EU02
Even though your vehicle is equipped
with the OCS, never install a child
restraint in the front passenger’s seat.
An inflating air bag can forcefully strike a
child or child restraint resulting in serious
or fatal injury.
WARNING
ś
NEVER place a rearward-facing or
forward-facing child restraint in the
front passenger's seat of the vehicle.
ś
An inflating frontal air bag could
forcefully strike a child resulting in
serious injury or death.
ś
Always properly restrain children in
an appropriate child restraint in the
rear seat of the vehicle.
Why Didn’t My Air Bag Go Off in
a Collision?
There are certain types of accidents in
which the air bag would not be expected
to provide additional protection. These
include rear impacts, second or third
collisions in multiple impact accidents,
as well as low speed impacts. Damage to
the vehicle indicates a collision energy
absorption, and is not an indicator of
whether or not an air bag should have
inflated.
Air bag collision sensors
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag
deploying unexpectedly and causing
serious injury or death:
ś
Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where air bags
or sensors are installed.
ś
Do not perform maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors. If the
location or angle of the sensors is
altered, the air bags may deploy
when they should not or may not
deploy when they should.
ś
Do not install bumper guards or
replace the bumper with a non-
genuine HYUNDAI parts. This may
adversely affect the collision and air
bag deployment performance.
ś
Place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF or ACC position when the
vehicle is being towed to prevent
inadvertent air bag deployment.
ś
Have all air bag repairs be conducted
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
