VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS
Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with many high technology, electronically controlled systems
that help to ensure your vehicle operates properly and provides the performance that youexpect. These systems utilize computers to monitor the operation of various systems andcomponents and help to control their operation. These computerized system operations arewide-ranging and involve components to reduce emissions, to continuously evaluate thereadiness of the airbag and seat belt pretensioner systems, to determine when the airbag andseat belt pre-tensioner systems should be deployed and then to activate the deployment, andif equipped, to operate anti-lock braking, traction control and electrical stability control to assist
the driver to control the vehicle in difficult driving situations. These systems electronically storeinformation that is useful to service technicians when they need to diagnose and repair thesesystems. Additional information is stored only when a crash occurs that results in thedeployment of the airbags or seat belt pre-tensioners. This type of data storage is done bydevices called event data recorders(EDR).
After a crash event, the airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner computer system, known as the
Supplemental Restraint System Control Module (SRSCM) or Airbag Control Unit (ACU), mayrecord some information about the condition of the vehicle and how it was being operated. Thisinformation consists of data related to seat belt usage and if there was diagnostic informationin the airbag or seat belt systems at the time that a crash occurred, and if the ACU sensed thata crash of sufficient severity occurred to require seat belt pre-tensioner or airbag deployment.
To retrieve this information, special equipment is needed and access to the vehicle or the devicethat stores the data is required. Hyundai will not access information about a crash event or share
it with others except:
o in response to an official request of police or similar government office, oro with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if the vehicle is leased, with the consent of the lessee,
oro as part of Hyundais defense of litigation, oro as required by law.

SEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and
Rear Seat 3-Point System with Com-bination Locking Retractor
Combination retractor type seat belts areinstalled in the rear seat positions to helpaccommodate the installation of child re-straint systems. Although a combinationretractor is also installed in the front passen-
ger seat position, Hyundai strongly recom-mends that children always be seated in therear seat. NEVER place any infant restraintsystem in the front seat of the vehicle.This type of seat belt combines the fea-tures of both an emergency locking retrac-tor seat belt and an automatic locking
retractor seat belt. To fasten your seat belt,pull it out of the retractor and insert themetal tab into the buckle. There will be anaudible "click" when the tab locks into thebuckle. When not securing a child restraint,the seat belt operates in the same way asthe driver's seat belt (Emergency Locking
Retractor Type). It automatically adjusts tothe proper length only after the lap beltportion of the seat belt is adjusted manu-ally so that it fits snugly around your hips.When the seat belt is fully extended fromthe retractor to allow the installation of achild restraint system, the seat belt opera-tion changes to allow the belt to retract, but
not to extend (Automatic Locking Retrac-tor Type). See page 1-30.
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of theretractor and insert the metal tab into thebuckle. There will be an audible "click"when the tab locks into the buckle.The seat belt automatically adjusts to theproper length only after the lap belt portion
is adjusted manually so that it fits snuglyaround your hips. If you lean forward in aslow, easy motion, the belt will extend andlet you move around. If there is a suddenstop or impact, however, the belt will lockinto position. It will also lock if you try to leanforward too quickly.

always be properly restrained in therear seat. Never allow children to ridein the front passenger seat. If a childover 13 must be seated in the frontseat, he/she must be properly beltedand the seat should be moved as farback as possible.
o Never wear the shoulder belt underyour arm or behind your back. Animproperly positioned shoulder beltcan cause serious injuries in a crash.The shoulder belt should be positionedmidway over your shoulder across
your collarbone.o Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. Atwisted belt can't do its job as well. Ina collision, it could even cut into you.Be sure the belt webbing is straightand not twisted.
o Be careful not to damage the beltwebbing or hardware. If the belt web-bing or hardware is damaged, replaceit.

WARNING:o Airbags can only be used once havean authorized Hyundai dealer replacethe airbag immediately after deploy-ment.
o The SRS is designed to deploy thefront airbags only when an impact is
sufficiently severe and when the im-pact angle is less than 30 from theforward longitudinal axis of the ve-hicle. The front airbags will not deployin side, rear or rollover impacts. Addi-tionally, the airbags will only deployonce. Seat belts must be worn at alltimes.
! WARNING:o Front airbags are not intended to de-ploy in side-impact, rear-impact orrollover crashes. In addition, airbagswill not deploy in frontal crashes be-low the deployment threshold.
o Move your seat as far back as prac-
tical from the front airbags, while stillmaintaining control of the vehicle. Youand your passengers should neversit or lean unnecessarily close to theairbags. Improperly positioned driv-ers and passengers can be severelyinjured by inflating airbags.
o No objects should be placed over or
near the airbag modules on the steer-ing wheel, instrument panel, and thefront passenger's panel above theglove box, because any such objectcould cause harm if the vehicle is in acrash severe enough to cause theairbags to deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must bereplaced by an authorized Hyundaidealer. Deployed airbags WILL NOTinflate again and will provide no pro-tection in subsequent collisions.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRSwiring or other components of theSRS system. Doing so could result ininjury, due to accidental deploymentof the airbags or by rendering the SRSinoperative.
o Even though your vehicle is equippedwith the occupant classification sys-tem, do not install a child restraintsystem in the front passenger seatposition. A child restraint systemmust never be placed in the front seat.The infant or child could be severelyinjured or killed by an airbag deploy-
ment in case of an accident.o Children younger than 13 years must
always be properly restrained in therear seat. Never allow children to ridein the front passenger seat. If a childover 13 must be seated in the frontseat, he or she must be properly belted
and the seat should be moved as farback as possible.

! WARNING:
The SRSCM continually monitors all ele-ments while the ignition is "ON" to deter-
mine if a frontal or near-frontal impact issevere enough to require airbag deploy-ment or pre-tensioner seat belt deploy-ment.
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI)on the instrument panel will illuminate forabout 6 seconds after the ignition key isturned to the "ON" position or after theengine is started, after which the SRI shouldgo out.

3o For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, all occupants in-cluding the driver should always weartheir seat belts whether or not anairbag is also provided at their seat-ing position to minimize the risk ofsevere injury or death in the event ofa crash. Do not sit or lean unneces-sarily close to the airbag while thevehicle is in motion.
o Sitting improperly or out of positioncan result in serious or fatal injury ina crash. All occupants should sit up-right with the seat back in an upright
position, centered on the seat cush-ion with their seat belt on, legs com-fortably extended and their feet on thefloor until the vehicle is parked andthe ignition key is removed.
o The SRS airbag system must deployvery rapidly to provide protection in a
crash. If an occupant is out of positionbecause of not wearing a seat belt, theairbag may forcefully contact the oc-cupant causing serious or fatal inju-ries.

A fully inflated airbag, in combination witha properly worn seat belt, slows the driver'sor the passenger's forward motion, reduc-ing the risk of head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the airbag imme-diately starts deflating, enabling the driverto maintain forward visibility, and the abil-ity to steer or operate other controls.
B240B03L
Upon deployment, tear seams moldeddirectly into the pad covers will separateunder pressure from the expansion of theairbags. Further opening of the coversthen allows full inflation of the airbags.
B240B02L
The airbag modules are located both in thecenter of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box.When the SRSCM detects a sufficientlysevere impact to the front of the vehicle, itwill automatically deploy the front airbags.

! WARNING:o If an airbag deploys, there may be a
loud noise followed by a fine dustreleased in the vehicle. These condi-tions are normal and are not hazard-ous - the airbags are packed in thisfine powder. The dust generated dur-ing airbag deployment may cause skinor eye irritation as well as aggravate
asthma for some persons. Alwayswash all exposed skin areas thor-oughly with lukewarm water and amild soap after an accident in whichthe airbags were deployed.

!o The SRS can function only when the
ignition key is in the "ON" position. Ifthe SRS SRI does not illuminate orcontinuously remains on after illumi-nating for about 6 seconds when theignition key is turned to the "ON" po-sition, or after the engine is started,illuminates while driving, the SRS isnot working properly. If this occurs,have your vehicle immediately in-spected by your Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or discon-nect a battery terminal, turn the igni-tion key to the "LOCK" position or
remove the ignition key. Never re-move or replace the air bag relatedfuse(s) when the ignition key is in the"ON" position. Failure to heed thiswarning will cause the SRS SRI toilluminate.
WARNING:
CAUTION:When installing a container of liquid airfreshener inside the vehicle, do not placeit near the instrument cluster nor on theinstrument panel surface. If there is anyleakage from the air freshener onto theseareas (instrument cluster, instrumentpanel or air ventilator), it may damagethese parts. If the liquid from the air
freshener does leak onto these areas,wash them with water immediately.

Side Impact Airbag
Your Hyundai is equipped with a sideimpact airbag in each front seat. The pur-
pose of the airbag is to provide the vehicle'sdriver and/or the front passenger with ad-ditional protection than that offered by theseat belt alone. The side impact airbagsare designed to deploy only during certainside-impact collisions, depending on thecrash severity, angle, speed and point of
impact. The side impact airbags are notdesigned to deploy in all side impact situ-ations.
B990B02JM
!WARNING:o Do not sit on sharp objects such as
tools when occupying the front pas-senger seat. This can adversely af-fect the occupant classification sys-tem.
o Do not use accessory seat covers onthe front seats.
o Accident statistics show that childrenare safer if they are restrained in therear, as opposed to the front seat. It isrecommended that child restraintsbe secured in a rear seat, including aninfant riding in a rear-facing infantseat, a child riding in a forward-facing
child seat and an older child riding ina booster seat.
o Airbags can only be used once havean authorized Hyundai dealer replacethe airbag immediately after deploy-ment.
!WARNING:o A smaller-stature adult who is not
seated correctly (for example: seatexcessively reclined, leaning on thecenter console, or hips shifted for-ward in the seat) can cause a condi-tion where the advanced frontal airbagsystem senses less weight than if theoccupant were seated properly (sit-ting upright with the seatback in anupright position, centered on the seatcushion with their seat belt on, legscomfortably extended and their feeton the floor). This condition can resultin an adult potentially being
misclassified and illumination of thePASSENGER AIR BAG "OFF" indica-tor.
