ADVANCED SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (SRS)
B240A01E-AAT
Your Hyundai is equipped with an Advanced
Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System. The
indications of the system's presence are the
letters "SRS AIRBAG" embossed on the airbag
pad cover in the steering wheel and the
passenger's side front 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 passenger's side front
panel above the glove box. 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 advanced SRS uses a collection of sen-
sors to gather information about the driver's and
front passenger's seat position, the driver's and
front passenger's seat belt usage and impact
severity.
The driver's and front passenger's seat position
sensors, which are installed on the seat track,
determine if the seats are fore or aft of a
reference position. Similarly, the seat belt usage
sensors determine if the driver and front
passenger's seat belts are fastened. These
sensors provide the ability to control the SRS
deployment's pressure based on how close the
driver's seat is to the steering wheel, how close
the passenger's seat is to the instrument panel
and whether or not the seat belts are fastened,
and how severe is impact.
The advanced airbags offer the ability to control
the airbag inflation with two pressure levels. A
first stage pressure level is provided for mod-
erate-severity impacts. A second stage pres-
sure level is provided for more severe impacts.
Your Hyundai is equipped with an Occupant
Classification
® system in the front passenger's
seat. The Occupant Classification
®
system de-
tects 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 page 1-37.

CAUTION:
If the seat position sensor is not working
properly, the SRS airbag warning light on
the instrument panel will illuminate even if
there is no malfunction of the SRS airbag
system because the SRS airbag is con-
nected with the seat position sensor. If the
SRS airbag warning light does not illumi-
nate when the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position, if it remains illuminated after
blinking for approximately 6 seconds, or if
it illuminates while the vehicle is being
driven, have an authorized Hyundai dealer
inspect the seat position sensor and the
SRS airbag system as soon as possible.

WARNING:
o Modification to the seat structure can
adversely affect the seat position sensor
and cause the airbag to deploy at a
different pressure level than should be
provided.
o Do not place any objects that may cause
magnetic fields near the front seat. These
can cause a malfunction of the seat
position sensor.
