Introduction
Fuel requirements
Your new vehicle is designed to obtain maximum performance with UNLEADED FUEL,
as well as minimize exhaust emissions and spark plug fouling. Your new vehicle
is designed to perform optimally using unleaded fuel having an octane number
((R+M)/2) of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher. (Do not use methanol
blended fuels)
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the engine and engine components, never add any fuel
system cleaning agents to the fuel tank other than what has been specified.
Consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for additional information.
WARNING
· Do not “top off” after the nozzle automatically shuts off when refueling. ·
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spillage
in the event
of an accident. Gasoline containing alcohol or methanol Gasohol, a mixture of
gasoline and ethanol (also known as grain alcohol) are being marketed along
with or instead of leaded or unleaded gasoline. For example, “E15” is a
gasohol comprised of 15 % ethanol and 85 % gasoline. Do not use gasohol
containing more than 15 % ethanol, and do not use gasoline or gasohol
containing any methanol. Either of these fuels may cause drivability problems
and damage to the fuel system, engine control system and emission control
system. Discontinue using gasohol of any kind if drivability problems occur.
“E85” fuel is an alternative fuel comprised of 85 percent ethanol and 15
percent gasoline, and is manufactured exclusively for use in Flexible Fuel
Vehicles. “E85” is not compatible with your vehicle. Use of “E85” may result
in poor engine performance and damage to your vehicle’s engine and fuel
system. Do not use fuel with an ethanol content exceeding 15 percent.
1-8
1
NOTICE
To prevent damage to your vehicle’s engine and fuel system: · Never use
gasohol which contains methanol. · Never use gasohol containing more than 15 %
ethanol. · Never use leaded fuel or leaded gasohol. · Never use “E85” fuel.
Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover damage to the fuel system or
any performance problems caused by the use of “E85” fuel.
Using Fuel Additives (except Detergent Fuel Additives) Using fuel additives
such as: · Silicone fuel additive · Ferrocene (iron-based) fuel additive ·
Other metallic-based fuel additives may result in cylinder misfire, poor
acceleration, engine stalling, damage to the catalyst, or abnormal corrosion,
and may cause damage to the engine resulting in a reduction in the overall
life of the powertrain. The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) may illuminate.
NOTICE
Damage to the fuel system or performance problem caused by the use of these
fuels or fuel additives may not be covered by your New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Gasoline containing MMT Some gasoline contains harmful manganese-based fuel
additives such as MMT (Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl). Do not
use gasoline containing MMT. This type of fuel can reduce vehicle performance
and affect your emission control system. The malfunction indicator lamp on the
cluster may come on.
1-9
Introduction
Detergent Fuel Additives Use good quality gasolines treated with detergent
additives such as TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline, which help prevent deposit
formation in the engine. These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and
enhance performance of the Emission Control System. For more information on
TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline, please go to the website (www.toptiergas.com).
For guests who do not use TOP Tier Detergent Gasoline regularly, and have
problems starting or the engine does not run smoothly, detergent-based fuel
additives that you can purchase separately may be added to the gasoline. If
TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is not available, one bottle of additive added to
the fuel tank according to the maintenance schedule is recommended (refer to
the “Scheduled Maintenance Services” section in chapter 9). Additives are
available from your authorized HYUNDAI dealer along with information on how to
use them. Do not mix other additives. Operation in foreign countries If you
are going to drive your vehicle in another country, be sure to: · Observe all
regulations regarding registration and insurance. · Determine that acceptable
fuel is available.
Vehicle modifications
· This vehicle should not be modified. Modification of your vehicle could
affect its performance, safety or durability and may even violate governmental
safety and emissions regulations.
· In addition, damage or performance problems resulting from any modification
may not be covered under warranty.
· If you use unauthorized electronic devices, it may cause the vehicle to
operate abnormally, wire damage, battery discharge and fire. For your safety,
do not use unauthorized electronic devices.
NOTICE
Some vehicle interior sounds (including welcome sound, navigation alerts, or
warning sounds) may be generated from the interior speakers and amplifier. Do
not replace these components with anything other than the original HYUNDAI
factory parts. Any unauthorized product may cause a malfunction of the vehicle
interior sounds that may affect the intended operation of the vehicle.

Vehicle break-in process
By following a few simple precautions for the first 1,000 km (600 mi.), you
may add to the performance, economy, and life of your vehicle. · Do not race
the engine. · While driving, avoid sudden acceleration. · Do not maintain a
single speed for long periods of time, either fast or slow. Varying
engine speed is needed to properly break-in the engine. · Avoid hard stops,
except in emergencies, to allow the brakes to seat properly. · Fuel economy
and engine performance may vary depending on vehicle break-in
process and be stabilized after 6,000 km (4,000 mi.). New engines may consume
more oil during the vehicle break-in period. · Do not tow a trailer during the
first 2,000 km (1,200 mi.) of operation.

Introduction
Vehicle data collection and event data recorders
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose
of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such
as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record
data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of
time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as: · How various systems in your vehicle were operating; ·
Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened; ·
How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake
pedal; and, · How fast the vehicle was traveling. These data can help provide
a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries
occur. These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances
in which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your
vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by
the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (for example,
name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties,
such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of
personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to
the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer,
other parties that have the special equipment, such as law enforcement, can
read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

NOTICE
· It is permissible to add 3 psi (20 kPa) to the standard tire pressure
specification if colder temperatures are expected soon. Tires typically lose 1
psi (7 kPa) for every 7 °C (12 °F) temperature drop. If extreme temperature
variations are expected, recheck your tire pressure as necessary to keep them
properly inflated.
· Tire inflation pressures may differ depending on changes in elevation (about
2.4 psi (10 kPa) for every mile (or kilometer) elevation change). If driving
in areas of higher or lower elevation, be sure to check and adjust for proper
tire inflation.
· Do not exceed the maximum inflation pressure, as found on the sidewall of
the tire(s).
CAUTION
When replacing tires, ALWAYS use the same size, type, brand, construction, and
tread pattern supplied with the vehicle. If not, it can damage the related
parts or make it work irregularly.

NOTICE
· Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or
dipstick before checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially
important in dusty or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved
roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from
entering the engine and other mechanisms that could be damaged.
· Never add any additives to the engine oil. Engine oil additives can change
the properties of engine oil and may cause serious engine failure.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather operating (engine start and engine oil flow ability). Typically, lower viscosity engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher viscosity engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of any viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine damage. When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be operated in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil viscosity from the chart.

Seats & Safety System
Important Safety Precautions
You will find many safety precautions and recommendations throughout this
section, and throughout this manual. The safety precautions in this section
are among the most important.
Always wear your seat belt
A seat belt is your best protection in all types of accidents. Airbags are
designed to supplement seat belts, not to replace them. So even though your
vehicle is equipped with airbags, always make sure you and your passengers
wear your seat belts, and wear them properly.
Restrain all children
All children under age 13 should ride in your vehicle properly restrained in a
rear seat, not the front seat. Infants and small children should be restrained
in an appropriate Child Restraint System. Larger children should use a booster
seat with the lap/shoulder belt until they can use the seat belt properly
without a booster seat.
Airbag hazards
While airbags can save lives, they can also cause serious or fatal injuries to
occupants who sit too close to them, or who are not properly restrained.
Infants, young children, and short adults are at the greatest risk of being
injured by an inflating airbag. Follow all instructions and warnings in this
manual.
Driver distraction
Driver distraction presents a serious and potentially deadly danger,
especially for inexperienced drivers. Safety should be the primary concern
when behind the wheel and drivers need to be aware of the wide array of
potential distractions, such as drowsiness, reaching for objects, eating,
personal grooming, other passengers, and using mobile phones. Drivers can
become distracted when they take their eyes and attention off the road or
their hands off the wheel to focus on activities other than driving. To reduce
your risk of distraction and an accident: · Set up your mobile devices (for
example, MP3 players, phones, navigation units, etc.) ONLY when your vehicle
is parked or safely stopped. · ONLY use your mobile device when allowed by
laws and conditions permit safe use. NEVER text or email while driving. Most
countries have laws prohibiting drivers from texting. Some countries and
cities also prohibit drivers from using handheld phones. · NEVER let the use
of a mobile device distract you from driving. You have a responsibility to
your passengers and others on the road to always drive safely, with your hands
on the wheel as well as your eyes and attention on the road.
3-2
3
Never drink or take drugs and drive
Drinking alcohol or taking drugs can reduce your ability to respond to
changing conditions and emergencies. Do not drink or take drugs and drive, and
do not let your friends drink or take drugs and drive.
Control your speed
Excessive speed is a major factor in crash injuries and deaths. Generally, the
higher the speed, the greater the risk, but serious injuries can also occur at
lower speeds. Never drive faster than is safe for current conditions,
regardless of the maximum speed posted.
Keep your vehicle in safe condition
Having a tire blowout or a mechanical failure can be extremely hazardous. To
reduce the possibility of such problems, check your tire pressures and
condition frequently, and perform all regularly scheduled maintenance.

Information
· The infotainment system may change after software updates. For more
information, refer to the user’s manual provided in the infotainment system
and the quick reference guide.
· The information provided may differ depending on which functions are
applicable to your vehicle.
Safety precautions
Adjusting the seats so that you are sitting in a safe and comfortable position
plays an important role for the safety of the driver and passengers, as much
as seat belts and airbags when in an accident.
WARNING
Do not use a cushion that reduces friction between the seat and the passenger.
The passenger’s hips may slide under the lap portion of the seat belt during
an accident or a sudden stop. Serious or fatal internal injuries could result
because the seat belt cannot operate properly.
Airbags You can take steps to reduce the risk of being injured by an inflating
airbag. Sitting too close to an airbag greatly increases the risk of injury in
the event the airbag inflates. Move your seat as far back as possible from
front airbags, while still maintaining control of the vehicle.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from an inflating airbag: ·
Adjust the driver’s seat as far to the rear
as possible while maintaining your ability to control the vehicle. · Adjust
the front passenger seat as far to the rear as possible. · Hold the steering
wheel by the rim with your hands at the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock positions to
minimize the risk of injuries to your hands and arms. · Never place anything
or anyone between you and the airbag. · Do not allow the front passenger to
place feet or legs on the dashboard to minimize the risk of leg injuries.
3-5
Seats & Safety System
Seat belts Always fasten your seat belt before starting any trip. At all
times, passengers should sit upright and be properly restrained with a seat
belt. Infants and small children must be restrained in appropriate Child
Restraint Systems. Children who have outgrown a booster seat and adults must
be restrained using the seat belts.
WARNING
To prevent serious injury or death: · Never use one seat belt for more than
one occupant. · Always position the seatback upright
with the lap portion of the seat belt snug and low across the hips. · Never
allow children or small infants to ride on a passenger’s lap. · Do not route
the seat belt across your neck, across sharp edges, or reroute the shoulder
strap away from your body. · Do not allow the seat belt to become caught or
jammed.
Front seats
WARNING
To prevent serious injury or death: · Never attempt to adjust the seat while
the vehicle is moving. The seat could respond with unexpected movement and may
cause loss of vehicle control resulting in a collision. · Do not place
anything under the front seats. Loose including unsecured floor mats, in the
driver’s foot area could interfere with the operation of the foot pedals. · Do
not allow anything to interfere with the normal position and proper locking of
the seatback. · Do not place a cigarette lighter on the floor or seat. · Use
extreme caution when picking up small objects trapped under the seats or
between the seat and the center console. Your hands might be cut or injured by
the sharp edges of the seat mechanism. · If there are occupants in the rear
seats, be careful while adjusting the front seat. · Make sure that the seat is
locked in place after the adjustment. If not, the seat might move
unexpectedly.

Reclining seatback Sitting in a reclined position when the vehicle is moving
can be dangerous. Even when you are buckled up, the protections of your
restraint system (seat belts and/or airbags) is greatly reduced by reclining
your seatback. Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work
properly. The more the seatback is reclined, the greater the chance for the
passenger’s hips to slide under the lap belt or the passenger’s neck to strike
the shoulder belt.
WARNING
Never ride with a reclined seatback when the vehicle is moving. Riding with a
reclined seatback increases your chance of serious or fatal injuries in the
event of a collision or sudden stop. Driver and passengers should always sit
well back in their seats, properly belted, and with the seatbacks upright.
Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work properly. When the
seatback is reclined, the shoulder belt cannot do its job because it will not
be snug against your chest. Instead, it will be in front of you. During a
collision, you could be thrown into the seat belt, causing neck or other
injuries. The more the seatback is reclined, the greater chance the
passenger’s hips will slide under the lap belt or the passenger’s neck will
strike the shoulder belt.
Manual seat controls The front seat can be adjusted by using the levers
located underneath the front part of the seat or on the outer side of the
seat. Forward and rearward adjustment

long items or to increase the rear cargo volume in the vehicle. Before folding
the rear seats, lower the head restraint to the lowest position and store the
seat belt to both sides of the seats.
WARNING
· Never allow passengers to sit on top of the folded down seatback while the
vehicle is moving. This is not a proper seating position and no seat belts are
available for use. This could result in serious injury or death in a collision
or sudden stop.
· Objects carried on the folded down seatback should not extend higher than
the top of the front seatbacks. This can allow cargo to slide forward and
cause property damage or serious injury or even death during a collision or
sudden stop.
To fold down the rear seatback: 1. Adjust the front seatback to the upright
position and if necessary, slide the front seat forward. 2. Lower the rear
head restraints to the lowest position by pushing and holding the release

Head restraint
The vehicle’s front and rear seats have adjustable head restraints. The head
restraints provide comfort for passengers, but more importantly they are
designed to help protect passengers from whiplash and other neck and spinal
injuries during an accident, especially in a rear impact collision. When there
are no occupants in the rear seats, adjust the rear head restraints to the
lowest height to improve the driver’s visibility.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death in an accident, take the
following precautions when adjusting your head restraints: · Always adjust the
head restraints
properly for all passengers BEFORE starting the vehicle. · Never let anyone
ride in a seat with the head restraint removed or reversed. · Adjust the head
restraints so that the middle of the head restraint is at the same height as
the top of the eyes.

Seats & Safety System
Seat Belts
This section describes how to use the seat belts properly. It also describes
some of the things not to do when using seat belts.
Seat belt safety precautions
Always fasten your seat belt and make sure all passengers have fastened their
seat belts before starting any trip. Airbags are designed to supplement the
seat belt as an additional safety device, not a replacement. Most countries
require all vehicle occupants to wear seat belts.
WARNING
Seat belts must be used by ALL passengers whenever the vehicle is moving. To
prevent serious injury or death: · Children under the age of 13 should be
properly restrained in the rear seats. · Never allow children to ride in the
front
passenger seat, unless the airbag is deactivated. If a child is seated in the
front passenger seat, move the seat as far back as possible. And the child
must always be restrained in the seat properly. · NEVER allow an infant or
child to be carried on an occupant’s lap. · NEVER ride with the seatback
reclined when the vehicle is moving. · Do not allow children to share a seat
or seat belt. · Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm or behind your
back. · NEVER wear a seat belt over fragile objects. If there is a sudden stop
or impact, the seat belt can damage it. · Do not use the seat belt if it is
twisted. A twisted seat belt will not protect you properly in a collision. ·
Do not use a seat belt if the webbing or hardware is damaged.
· Do not latch the seat belt into the buckles intended for other seating
positions.
· Never unfasten the seat belt while driving. This may cause loss of vehicle
control resulting in a collision.
· Make sure there is nothing in the buckle that could interfere with the seat
belt latch mechanism from fastening securely.
· Never modify seatbelt or install devices that may prevent seatbelt assembly
from removing slack.
· Do not use a seat belt if the webbing or hardware is damaged. Have the seat
belt replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Damaged seat belts and seat belt assemblies do not operate properly. Always
replace: · Frayed, contaminated, or damaged
webbing. · Damaged hardware. · The entire seat belt assembly after it
has been worn in an accident, even if damage to webbing or assembly is not
apparent.

Seats & Safety System
Pretensioner seat belt
2C_RetractPretensioner
Your vehicle is equipped with driver’s, front passenger’s and rear passengers
pretensioner seat belts (retractor pretensioner). The pretensioner makes sure
the seat belts fit tightly against your body in certain frontal or side
collision(s). The pretensioner seat belts may be activated in some crashes
where the frontal or side collision(s) is severe enough, together with the
airbags. When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if you try to lean forward too
quickly, the seat belt retractor locks in place. In some frontal collisions,
the pretensioner activates and pulls the seat belt against your body. If the
system senses excessive tension on the driver’s or passenger’s seat belt when
the pretensioner seat belt activates, the load limiter inside the retractor
pretensioner releases some of the pressure on the driver’s or passenger’s seat
belt.
WARNING
To prevent serious injury or death: · Always wear your seat belt and sit
properly in your seat. · Do not use the seat belt if it is loose or
twisted. · Do not place anything near the buckle. · Always replace your
pretensioners after
activation or an accident. · NEVER inspect, service, repair or
replace the pretensioners by yourself. Have the pretensioners inspected,
serviced, repaired, or replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. · Do not hit
the seat belt assemblies.
WARNING
Do not touch the pretensioner seat belt assemblies for several minutes after
they have been activated. When the pretensioner seat belt mechanism deploys
during a collision, the pretensioner can become hot and can burn you.
CAUTION
Body work on the front area of the vehicle may damage the pretensioner seat
belt system. Have the system serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Information
· Pretensioner seat belts may be activated in certain frontal or side
collisions or rollover situations.
· When the pretensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise may be heard
and fine dust, which may appear to be smoke, may be visible in the passenger
compartment. These are normal operating conditions and are not hazardous.
· Although it is non-toxic, the fine dust may cause skin irritation and should
not be inhaled for prolonged periods. Wash all exposed skin areas thoroughly
after an accident in which the pretensioner seat belts were activated.
Load limiter If a seatbelt places an excessive load on the chest during a
vehicle crash, a load limiter equipped with the seatbelt reduces the pressure
on the chest.

Seats & Safety System
Additional seat belt safety precautions
Seat belt use during pregnancy The seat belt should always be used during
pregnancy. The best way to protect your unborn child is to protect yourself by
always wearing the seat belt. Pregnant women should always wear a lap-shoulder
seat belt. Place the shoulder belt across your chest, routed between your
breasts and away from your neck. Place the lap belt below your belly and pull
the shoulder portion so that it fits SNUGLY across your hips and pelvic bone,
under the rounded part of your belly.
WARNING
· Pregnant women and patients are more vulnerable to any impacts on the
abdomen during an abrupt stop or collision. If you are in an accident while
pregnant, consult your doctor.
· To reduce the risk of serious injury or death to an unborn child during an
accident, pregnant women should NEVER place the lap portion of the seat belt
above or over the area of the abdomen where the unborn child is located.
Seat belt use and children
Infant and small children Most countries have Child Restraint System laws that
require children to travel in approved Child Restraint System devices,
including booster seats. The age at which seat belts can be used instead of
Child Restraint System may be different among countries, so you should be
aware of the specific requirements in your state, and where you are traveling.
Infant and Child Restraint System must be properly placed and installed in a
rear seat. For more information refer to the “Seat belt safety precautions”
section in this chapter.
WARNING
Always properly restrain infants and small children in a Child Restraint
System appropriate for the child’s height and weight. To reduce the risk of
serious injury or death to a child and other passengers, never hold a child in
your lap or arms when the vehicle is moving. Violent forces during a collision
will tear the child from your arms and throw the child against the interior or
to be ejected from the vehicle.
Small children are best protected from injury in an accident when properly
restrained in the rear seat by a Child Restraint System that meets the
requirements of the Safety Standards of your country. Before buying any Child
Restraint System, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets the
Safety Standards of your country. The Child Restraint System must be
appropriate for your child’s height and weight. Check the label on the Child
Restraint System for this information. Refer to the “Child Restraint System
(CRS)” section in this chapter.
3-26
3
Larger children Children under age 13 and who are too large for a booster seat
should always occupy the rear seat and use the available lap/shoulder belts. A
seat belt should be snug against the hips and be snug across the shoulder and
chest to restrain the child safely. A child’s squirming could move the belt
out of position. Adults should frequently check belt fit. In a collision, the
safest place for children is in the rear seats, using a Child Restraint System
appropriate for the child. If a larger child over age 13 must be seated in the
front seat, the child must be securely restrained by the available seat belt
and the seat should be placed in the rearmost position. If the shoulder belt
portion slightly touches the child’s neck or face, try placing the child
closer to the center of the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still touches their
face or neck, the child needs to return to an appropriate booster seat in the
rear seat.
WARNING
· Always make sure larger children’s seat belts are buckled and properly
adjusted.
· Never allow the shoulder belt to contact the child’s neck or face.
· Do not allow more than one child to use a single seat belt.
Seat belt use and injured people A seat belt should still be used when an
injured person is being transported. Consult a physician for specific
recommendations.
One person per belt When two people (children or adults) are sitting together,
never attempt to use a single seat belt. This could increase the severity of
injuries in a collision.
Do not lie down Sitting in a reclined position when the vehicle is moving can
be dangerous. Even when buckled up, the protections of your restraint system
(seat belts and/or airbags) is greatly reduced by reclining your seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work properly. During a
collision, you could be thrown into the seat belt, causing neck or other
injuries. The more the seat back is reclined, the greater the chance for the
passenger’s hips to slide under the lap belt or the passenger’s neck to strike
the shoulder belt.
WARNING
· Never ride with a reclined seatback when the vehicle is moving.
· Riding with a reclined seatback increases your chance of serious or fatal
injuries in the event of a collision or sudden stop.
· Driver and passengers should always sit well back in their seats with the
seatbacks upright and should be belted properly.
3-27
Seats & Safety System
Care of seat belts
Seat belt systems should never be disassembled or modified.
Periodic inspection All seat belts should be inspected periodically for wear
or damage of any kind. Any damaged parts should be replaced as soon as
possible.
Keep belts clean and dry Seat belts should be kept clean and dry. If belts
become dirty, they can be cleaned by using a mild soap solution and warm
water. Bleach, dye, strong detergents, or abrasives should not be used because
they may damage and weaken the fabric.
When to replace seat belts The entire seat belt assembly or assemblies should
be replaced if the vehicle has been involved in an accident. This should be
done even if no damage is visible. Consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
Child Restraint System (CRS)
Children always in the rear
WARNING
Always properly restrain children in the vehicle. Children of all ages are
safer when restrained in the rear seat. A child riding in the front passenger
seat can be forcefully struck by an inflating airbag resulting in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH.
Children under age 13 should always ride in the rear seats and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop, or sudden maneuver. According to accident statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained in the rear seats than in the front seat. Even with
airbags, children can be seriously injured or killed. Children too large for a
Child Restraint System must use the seat belts provided. Most countries have
child restraint laws which require children to travel in approved Child
Restraint Systems. The laws governing the age or height/weight restrictions at
which seat belts can be used instead of Child Restraint System differs among
countries, so you should be aware of the specific requirements in your state,
and where you are travelling. Child Restraint Systems must be properly placed
and installed in the rear seat. You must use a commercially available Child
Restraint System that meets the requirements of the Safety Standards of your
country. Child Restraint Systems are generally designed to be secured in a
vehicle seat by lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt,
3-28
3
or by a LATCH system in the rear seats of the vehicle.
Child Restraint System (CRS) Infants and younger children must be restrained
in an appropriate rearward-facing or forward-facing CRS that has first been
properly secured to the seat of the vehicle. Read and comply with the
instructions for installation and use provided by the manufacturer of the
Child Restraint System.
WARNING
An improperly secured child restraint can increase the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH in an accident. Always take the following precautions when using a
Child Restraint System: · NEVER install a child or infant restraint
in the front passenger’s seat. · Always properly secure the child
restraint to a rear seat of the vehicle. · Always follow the child restraint
system
manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use. · Always properly
restrain your child in the child restraint. · If the vehicle head restraint
prevents proper installation of a child seat (as described in the child
restraint system manual), the head restraint of the respective seating
position shall be readjusted or entirely removed. · Do not use an infant
carrier or a child safety seat that “hooks” over a seatback, it may not
provide adequate protection in an accident. · After an accident, have an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer check the child restraint system, seat belts, tether
anchors and lower anchors.
Selecting a Child Restraint System (CRS)
When selecting a Child Restraint System for your child, always: · Make sure
the Child Restraint System
has a label certifying that it meets applicable Safety Standards of your
country. · Select a Child Restraint System based on your child’s height and
weight. The required label or the instructions for use typically provide this
information. · Select a Child Restraint System that fits the vehicle seating
position where it will be used. · Read and comply with the warnings and
instructions for installation and use provided with the Child Restraint
System. Child Restraint System types There are three main types of Child
Restraint Systems: rearward-facing, forward-facing and booster Child Restraint
Systems. They are classified according to the child’s age, height and weight.
Rear-facing child seats
2C_ALRSeatBelt
A rear-facing child seat provides restraint with the seating surface against
the back of the child. The harness system holds the child in place, and in an
accident, acts to keep the child positioned in the seat and
3-29
Seats & Safety System
reduce the stress to the neck and spinal cord. All children under age one must
always ride in a rear-facing infant child restraint. Convertible and 3-in-1
child seats typically have higher height and weight limits for the rear-facing
position, allowing you to keep your child rear-facing for a longer period of
time. Continue to use a rear-facing child seat for as long as your child will
fit within the height and weight limits allowed by the child seat
manufacturer. It’s the best way to keep them safe. Once your child has
outgrown the rear-facing child restraint, your child is ready for a forward-
facing child restraint with a harness.
WARNING
NEVER install a child or infant restraint in the front passenger’s seat.
Placing a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat can result in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH if the child restraint is struck by an inflating airbag.
Forward-facing Child Restraint System
2C_ALRSeatBelt_2
A forward-facing Child Restraint System provides restraint for the child’s
body with a harness. Keep children in a forward-facing Child Restraint System
with a harness until they reach the top height or weight limit allowed by your
Child Restraint System’s manufacturer.
Once your child outgrows the forward-facing Child Restraint System, your child
is ready for a booster seat.
Booster seats A booster seat is a Child Restraint System designed to improve
the fit of the vehicle’s seat belt system. A booster seat positions the seat
belt so that it fits properly over the stronger parts of your child’s body.
Keep your children in booster seats until they are big enough to fit in a seat
belt properly. For a seat belt to fit properly, the lap belt must lie
comfortable across the upper thighs, not the stomach. The shoulder belt should
lie comfortable across the shoulder and chest and not across the neck or face.
Children under age 13 must always be properly restrained to minimize the risk
of injury in an accident, sudden stop or sudden maneuver.
Installing a Child Restraint System (CRS)
WARNING
Before installing your Child Restraint System always: Read and follow the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of the Child Restraint System.
Failure to follow all warnings and instructions could increase the risk of the
SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH if an accident occurs.
WARNING
If the vehicle head restraint prevents proper installation of a Child
Restraint System, the head restraint of the respective seating position shall
be readjusted or entirely removed.

3
After selecting a proper Child Restraint System for your child and checking
that the Child Restraint System fits properly on the seating position, there
are three general steps for a proper installation: · Properly secure the Child
Restraint
System to the vehicle. All Child Restraint Systems must be secured to the
vehicle with the lap belt or lap part of a lap/shoulder belt or with the lower
anchor and/or tether anchor and/or with the support leg. · Make sure the Child
Restraint System is firmly secured. After installing a Child Restraint System
to the vehicle, push and pull the seat forward and from side-to-side to verify
that it is securely attached to the seat. A Child Restraint System secured
with a seat belt should be installed as firmly as possible. However, some
side-to-side movement can be expected. When installing a Child Restraint
System, adjust the vehicle seat and seatback (up and down, forward and
rearward) so that your child fits in the Child Restraint System in a
comfortable manner. · Secure the child in the Child Restraint System. Make
sure the child is properly strapped in the Child Restraint System according to
the Child Restraint System manufacturer’s instructions.
CAUTION
A Child Restraint System in a closed vehicle can become very hot. To prevent
burns, check the seating surface and buckles before placing your child in the
Child Restraint System.
Lower Anchors and Tether for Children (LATCH System) The LATCH system holds a
Child Restraint System during driving and in an accident. This system is
designed to make installation of the Child Restraint System easier and reduce
the possibility of improperly installing your Child Restraint System. The
LATCH system uses anchors in the vehicle and attachments on the Child
Restraint System. The LATCH system eliminates the need to use seat belts to
secure the Child Restraint System to the rear seats. Lower anchors are metal
bars built into the vehicle. There are two lower anchors for each LATCH
seating position that will accommodate a Child Restraint System with lower
attachments. To use the LATCH system in your vehicle, you must have a Child
Restraint System with LATCH attachments. The Child Restraint System
manufacturer will provide you with instructions on how to use the Child
Restraint System with its attachments for the LATCH anchorages.
2C_ALRSeatBeltLowerAnchorOverview
LATCH anchors have been provided in the left and right outboard rear seating
positions. Their locations are shown in the illustration. There are no LATCH
anchors provided for the center rear seating position.

Seats & Safety System
WARNING
Do not attempt to install a Child Restraint System using LATCH anchors in the
rear center seating position. There are no LATCH anchors provided for this
seat. Using the outboard seat anchors can damage the anchors which may break
or fail in a collision resulting in serious injury or death.
WARNING
Before installing the Child Restraint System, make sure that there are no
objects (for example, toy, pen, wire) around the lower anchor area. Those
objects may damage either the seat belt system or the Child Restraint System
during the installment procedure. If necessary, have your vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

WARNING
Take the following precautions when using the LATCH system: · Read and follow
all installation
instructions provided with your Child Restraint System. · To prevent the child
from reaching and taking hold of unretracted seat belts, buckle all unused
rear seat belts and retract the seat belt webbing behind the child. Children
can be strangled if a shoulder belt becomes wrapped around their neck and the
seat belt tightens. · NEVER attach more than one Child Restraint System to a
single anchorage. This could cause the anchor or attachment to come loose or
break. · Always have the LATCH system inspected by your dealer after an
accident. An accident can damage the LATCH system and may not properly secure
the Child Restraint System.
Securing a Child Restraint System seat with “Top-tether Anchorage” system
2C_ALRSeatBeltTetherAnchor
First secure the child restraint with the LATCH lower anchors or the seat
belt. If the child restraint manufacturer recommends that the top tether strap
be attached, attach and tighten the top tether strap to the top tether strap
anchor. Top tether anchorages are located on the rear of the seatbacks.
2C_ALRSeatBeltTetherAnchorInstall
To install the tether anchor: 1. Route the Child Restraint System
top-tether strap over the seatback. Placing the top tether strap, follow the
instructions of the Child Restraint System manufacturer. 2. Connect the tether
strap hook to the tether anchor, then tighten the top-tether strap according

pushing and pulling the seat forward-and-back and side-to-side.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when installing the top-tether: · Read and
follow all installation
instructions provided with your Child Restraint System. · NEVER attach more
than one Child Restraint System to a single tether anchor. This could cause
the anchorage or attachment to come loose or break. · Do not attach the tether
strap to anything other than the correct top-tether anchor. It may not work
properly if attached to something else. · Child Restraint System anchors are
designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted Child
Restraint System. Under no circumstances are the anchors to be used for adult
seat belts or harnesses or for attaching other items or equipment to the
vehicle.
Securing a Child Restraint System with a lap/shoulder belt When not using the
LATCH system, all Child Restraint Systems must be secured to a rear seat with
the lap part of a lap/shoulder belt.
WARNING
ALWAYS place a rearward-facing Child Restraint System in the rear seat of the
vehicle. Placing a rearward-facing child restraint in the front seat can
result in serious injury or death if the Child Restraint System is struck by
an inflating airbag. Automatic locking mode
2C_ALRSeatBeltInstall
Since all passenger seat belts move freely under normal conditions and only
lock under extreme or emergency conditions (emergency locking mode), you must
manually pull the seat belt all the way out to shift the retractor to the
“Automatic Locking” mode to secure a Child Restraint System. The “Automatic
Locking” mode will help prevent the normal movement of the child in the
vehicle from causing the seat belt to loosen and compromise the Child
Restraint System. To secure a Child Restraint System, use the following
procedure.

The actual airbags in the vehicle may differ from the illustration.
(1) Driver’s front airbag (2) Passenger’s front airbag (3) Front Side airbag (4) Rear Side airbag (5) Curtain airbag (6) Driver’s knee airbag
3-37
Seats & Safety System
Your vehicle is equipped with an Advanced Supplemental Airbag System for the
driver’s and front passenger’s seats. The front airbags are designed to
supplement the three-point seat belts. For these airbags to provide
protection, seat belts must be properly worn at all times when driving. You
can be severely injured or killed in an accident if you are not wearing a seat
belt. Airbags are built into the vehicle as a supplementary system. They are
not intended as a replacement for wearing 3-point seat belts. Also, airbags
are not designed to deploy in every collision. In some accidents, the seat
belts are the only restraint protecting you.
WARNING
AIRBAG SAFETY PRECAUTIONS · Always use seat belts and Child Restraint Systems
– every trip, every time, everyone!
Even with airbags, you can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if
you are improperly belted or not wearing your seat belt when the airbag
inflates. · Never place a child in any Child Restraint System or booster seat
in the front passenger seat, unless the airbag is deactivated. · An inflating
airbag could forcefully strike the infant or child causing serious or fatal
injuries. · ABC – Always Buckle Children under age 13 in the back seat. It is

crash pad below the steering wheel, and the passenger’s side front panel pad above the glove box. The airbag locations are embossed with the letters, “AIRBAG”. The purpose of the SRS is to provide the vehicle’s driver and front passenger with additional supplemental protection that the seat belt system does not provide in case of a frontal impact of sufficient severity. The SRS uses sensors to gather information about the driver’s and front passenger’s seat belt usage and impact severity. The seat belt buckle sensors determine if the driver and front passenger’s seat belts are fastened. These sensors provide the ability to control the SRS deployment based on whether or not the seat belts are fastened, and how severe the impact is. The advanced SRS offers the ability to control the airbag inflation within 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 and seat belt usage, the SRS Control Module (SRSCM) controls the airbag inflation. Failure to properly wear seat belts may increase the risk or severity of injury in a collision.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from inflating front airbags: ·
Seat belts must be worn at all times to
help keep occupants positioned properly. · Move your seat as far back as
possible from front airbags, while still maintaining control of the vehicle. ·
Never lean against the door or center console. · Hold the steering wheel at
the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock positions, to minimize the risk of injuries to
your hands and arms. · Do not allow the front passenger to place their feet or
legs on the dashboard. · Never place any objects (such as dashboard cover,
mobile phone holder, cup holder, perfume or stickers) over or near the airbag
modules on the steering wheel, instrument panel, windshield glass, and the
front passenger’s panel above the glove box. Such objects may cause harm if
the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to cause the airbags to deploy. · Do
not attach any objects on the front windshield and inside mirror.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from an inflating side airbag: ·
Seat belts must be worn at all times to
help keep occupants positioned properly. · Do not allow passengers to lean
their heads or bodies onto doors, put their arms on the doors, stretch their
arms out of the window, or place objects between the doors and seats. · Hold
the steering wheel at the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock positions, to minimize the
risk of injuries to your hands and arms. · Do not use any accessory seat
covers. It may reduce or prevent the effectiveness of the system. · Do not
hang other objects except clothes. In an accident it may cause vehicle damage
or personal injury especially when airbag is inflated. · Do not place any
objects over the airbag location or between the airbag and yourself. Also, do
not attach any objects around the area the airbag inflates such as door, side
door glass, and front and rear pillar. · Do not place any objects between the
door and the seat. They may become dangerous projectiles if the side airbag
inflates. · Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side
airbags. · Do not cause an impact to the doors when the Engine Start/Stop
button is in the ON or START position because the side airbags can inflate. ·
If the seat or seat cover is damaged, have your vehicle serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Curtain airbags
2C_CurtainAirbagLabel
2C_CurtainAirbagDeployment
Curtain airbags are located along both sides of the roof rails above the front
and rear doors. They are designed to help protect the heads of the front seat
occupants and the rear outboard seat occupants in certain side impact
collisions. The curtain airbags are designed to deploy during certain side
impact collisions, depending on the crash severity. The side and/or curtain
airbags and pretensioners on both sides of the vehicle may deploy if a
rollover or possible rollover is detected. The curtain airbags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact or rollover situations.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from an inflating curtain
airbag: · Seat belts must be worn at all times to
help keep occupants positioned properly. · Properly secure a Child Restraint
System as far away from the door as possible. · Do not place any objects over
the airbag. Also, do not attach any objects around the area the airbag
inflates such as door, side door glass, front and rear pillar, and roof side
rail. · Do not hang other objects except clothes, especially hard or breakable
objects near airbag locations. In an accident, it may cause vehicle damage or
personal injury. · Do not allow passengers to lean their heads or bodies onto
doors, put their arms on the doors, stretch their arms out of the window, or
place objects between the doors and seats. · Do not open or repair the side
curtain airbags yourself. If necessary, have the airbag inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
How does the airbags system operate?
The SRSCM (Supplemental Restraint System Control Module) continually monitors
all SRS components while the Engine Start/Stop button is ON to determine if a
crash impact is severe enough to require airbag deployment or pretensioner
seat belt deployment. During a moderate to severe frontal collision, sensors
detect the vehicle’s rapid deceleration. If the rate of deceleration is high
enough, the SRSCM inflates the front airbags with the force needed. The front
airbags help protect the driver and front passenger by responding to frontal
impacts in which seat belts alone cannot provide adequate restraint. When
needed, the side airbags help provide protection in the event of a side impact
or rollover by supporting the side upper body area. · Airbags are activated
(able to inflate if
necessary) only when the Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON or START
position, and it may be activated within 3 minutes after the engine is turned
off. · Airbags inflate in the event of certain frontal or side collisions to
help protect the occupants from serious physical injury. · There is no single
speed at which the airbags will inflate. Generally, airbags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a collision and its direction. Airbag
deployment also depends on a number of other factors including vehicle speed,
angles of impact and the density and stiffness of the vehicles or objects
which your vehicle impacts during a collision. The determining factors are not
limited to those mentioned above. · The front airbags completely inflate and
deflate in an instant. It is virtually impossible for you to see the airbags
inflate during an accident. It is much
3-43
Seats & Safety System
more likely that you simply see the deflated airbags hanging out of their storage compartments after the collision. · In addition to inflating in serious side collisions, side and/or curtain airbags inflate if the sensing system detects a rollover. When a rollover is detected, curtain airbags remain inflated longer to help provide protection from ejection, especially when used in conjunction with the seat belts. · To help provide protection, the airbags must inflate rapidly. The speed of airbag inflation is a consequence of extremely short time in which the airbag inflates between the occupant and the vehicle structures before the occupant impacts those structures. This speed of inflation reduces the risk of serious or life-threatening injuries and is thus a necessary part of airbag design. However, the rapid airbag inflation may also cause injuries that include facial abrasions, bruises, and broken bones because the inflation speed also causes the airbags to expand with great force. · There are even circumstances under which contact with the airbag may cause fatal injuries, especially when the occupant is positioned excessively close to the airbag. You can take steps to reduce the risk of being injured by an inflating airbag. The greatest risk is sitting too close to the airbag. An airbag needs space to inflate. It is recommended that drivers sit as far as possible between the center of the steering wheel and the chest while still maintaining control of the vehicle.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from an inflating airbag: ·
Never place a child restraint in the front
passenger seat. Always properly restrain children under age 13 in the rear
seats of the vehicle. · Adjust the front passenger’s and driver’s seats as far
to the rear as possible while allowing you to maintain full control of the
vehicle. · Hold the steering wheel with hands at the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock
positions. · Never place anything or anyone between the airbag and the seat
occupant. · Do not allow the front passenger to place their feet or legs on
the dashboard.

After complete inflation, the airbag immediately starts deflating, enabling
the driver to maintain forward visibility and steer or operate other controls.
WARNING
To prevent objects from becoming dangerous projectiles when the passenger’s
airbag inflates: · Do not install or place any objects (drink
holder, CD holder, stickers, etc.) on the front passenger’s panel above the
glove box where the passenger’s airbag is located. · Do not install a
container of liquid air freshener near the instrument cluster or on the

Seats & Safety System
What to expect after an airbag inflates
After a frontal or side airbag inflates, it deflates very quickly. Airbag
inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing out of the windshield or
being able to steer. Curtain airbags may remain partially inflated for some
time after they deploy.
WARNING
After an airbag inflates, take the following precautions: · Open your windows
and doors as soon
as possible after impact to reduce prolonged exposure to the powder released
by the inflating airbag. · Do not touch the airbag storage area’s internal
components immediately after an airbag has inflated. The parts that come into
contact with an inflating airbag may be very hot. · Always wash exposed skin
areas thoroughly with cold water and mild soap. · Have an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer inspect your vehicle and replace components as required before
operating your vehicle again. Airbags are designed to be used only.
Noise and smoke from inflating airbag When the airbags inflate, they make a
loud noise and may release powder inside the vehicle. After the airbag
inflates, you may feel discomfort while breathing. This may be due to the
impact of the airbag or the seat belt with your chest and it may also be due
to breathing residual powder in the air and around your vehicle. The powder
may aggravate asthma for some people. If you experience breathing problems
after an airbag deployment, seek medical attention immediately.
Though the powder is nontoxic, it may cause irritation to the skin, eyes,
nose, throat, etc. If this is the case, wash and rinse with cold water
immediately and seek medical attention if the symptoms persist.

possible.
2C_OCSIndicator
Your vehicle is equipped with an Occupant Classification System (OCS) in the
front passenger’s seat.
Main components of the Occupant Classification System · A detection device
located within the
front passenger seat cushion. · Electronic system to help determine
whether the passenger airbag systems should be activated or deactivated. · An
indicator light located on the overhead console which illuminates the words
“PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF” indicating the front passenger airbag system is
deactivated. · The instrument cluster airbag indicator light is interconnected
with the OCS. The OCS is designed to help detect the presence of a properly-
seated front passenger and determine if the passenger’s front airbag should be
enabled (may inflate) or not. The purpose is to help reduce the risk of injury
or death from an inflating airbag to certain front passenger seat occupants,
such as children, by requiring the airbag to be automatically turned off. For
example, if a child restraint of the type specified in the regulations is on
the seat, the occupant classification sensor can detect it and cause the
airbag to turn off.
3-47
Seats & Safety System
Front passenger seat adult occupants who are properly seated and wearing the
seat belt properly, should not cause the passenger airbag to be automatically
turned off. For smaller adults it may turn off, however, if the occupant does
not sit in the seat properly (for example, by not sitting upright, by sitting
on the edge of the seat, or by otherwise being out of position), this could
cause the sensor to turn the airbag off. You will find the “PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF” indicator on the overhead console panel. This system detects the
conditions 1-4 in the following table and activates or deactivates the front
passenger airbag based on these conditions. Always be sure that you and all
vehicle occupants are seated properly and wearing the seat belt properly for
the most effective protection by the airbag and the seat belt. The OCS may not
function properly if the passenger takes actions which can affect the
classification system. These include: · Failing to sit in an upright position.
· Leaning against the door or center
console. · Sitting towards the sides of the front of
the seat. · Putting their legs on the dashboard or
resting them on other locations which reduce the passenger weight on the front
seat. · Wearing the seat belt improperly. · Reclining the seatback. · Wearing
thick clothing like ski wear or hip protection wear. · Putting an additional
thick cushion on the seat. · Putting electrical devices (for example,
notebook, satellite radio) on the seat with inverter charging.

· Do not place sharp objects on the front passenger seat. These may damage the
occupant detection system, if they puncture the seat cushion.
· Do not place any items under the front passenger seat.
· When changing or replacing the seat only use Genuine Hyundai Parts. The OCS
has been developed based on using original HYUNDAI car seats only. Altering or
changing the authentic parts may result in system malfunction and increase
risk of injury when in collision. Any of the above could interfere with the
proper operation of the OCS sensor thereby increasing the risk of an injury in
an accident.
2C_HowToUseOCS
If the “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF” indicator is on when an adult is seated in the
front passenger seat, place the Start/Stop button in the OFF position and ask
the passenger to sit properly (sitting upright with the seat back in an
upright position, centered on the seat cushion with their seat belt on, legs
comfortably extended and their feet on the floor). Restart the vehicle and
have the person remain in that position. This will allow the system to detect
the person and to enable the passenger airbag. If the “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF”
indicator is still on, ask the passenger to move to the rear seat.
WARNING
NEVER allow an adult passenger to ride in the front passenger seat when the
“PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF” indicator is illuminated. During a collision, the
airbag will not inflate if the indicator is illuminated. Have your passenger
reposition themselves in the seat. If the “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF” indicator
remains illuminated after the passenger repositions themselves properly and
the vehicle is restarted, have the passenger move to the rear seat because the
airbag will not inflate.

NOTICE
The “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF” indicator generally illuminates for about 4 seconds
after the Start/Stop button is in the ON or START position. But, if the
Start/Stop button is pressed to the ON or START position within 3 minutes
after the vehicle is turned OFF, the indicator does not illuminate. If the
front passenger seat is occupied, the OCS will then classify the front
passenger after several more seconds. Do not install a Child Restraint System
on the Front Passenger’s Seat
2C_AirbagPartsWarning
Even though your vehicle is equipped with the OCS, never install a child
restraint in the front passenger’s seat. An inflating airbag can forcefully
strike a child or child restraint resulting in serious or fatal injury.
WARNING
NEVER use a rearward facing Child Restraint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE
AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur.
Children should always ride in the rear seats.
Why didn’t my airbag go off in a collision?
There are certain types of accidents in which the airbag would not deploy
including rear impacts and 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
airbag should have inflated.
Airbag collision sensors
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an airbag deploying unexpectedly and causing serious
injury or death: · Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where airbags or sensors are installed. · Do not perform
maintenance on or around the airbag sensors. If the location or angle of the
sensors is changed, the airbags may deploy when they should not or may not
deploy. · Do not install bumper guards with non genuine Hyundai or non-
equivalent parts. It may adversely affect the collision and airbag deployment
performance. · Press the Engine Start/Stop button to the OFF or ACC position
and wait for 3 minutes before the vehicle is towed to prevent unintended
airbag deployment. · Have all airbag repairs conducted by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

2C_SideCurtainAirbagDeployment
Side and curtain airbags are designed to inflate when an impact is detected by
side collision sensors depending on the severity of impact resulting from a
side impact collision. Although the driver’s and front passenger’s airbags are
designed to inflate in frontal collisions and side and curtain airbags are
designed to inflate in side impact collisions, airbags may inflate in other
types of collisions if the sensors detect a sufficient impact. Also, the side
and curtain airbags inflate when a rollover is detected by a rollover sensor.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by bumps or objects on unimproved roads,
the airbags may deploy. Drive carefully on unimproved roads or on surfaces not
designed for vehicle traffic to prevent unintended airbag deployment.

Seats & Safety System Airbag non-inflation conditions
2C_AirbagNonOperatingConditionMinorCrash
In certain low-speed collisions, the airbags may not deploy. The airbags are
designed not to deploy in such cases because they may not provide benefits
beyond the protection of the seat belts.
2C_AirbagNonOperatingConditionSidlingCrash
In an angled collision, the force of impact may direct the occupants in a
direction where the airbags would not be able to provide any additional
benefit, and thus the sensors may not deploy any airbags.
2C_AirbagNonOperatingConditionRearCrash
Front airbags are not designed to inflate in rear collisions, because
occupants are moved backward by the force of the impact.
2C_AirbagNonOperatingConditionTruckCrash
Just before impact, drivers often brake heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the
front portion of the vehicle causing it to “nosedive”. This is particularly
important when the vehicle in front has a higher ground clearance. Airbags may
not inflate if your vehicle is in a “nosedive” condition because the collision
forces detected by the sensors may have been significantly reduced.
