VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS

Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with many high technology, electronically controlled systems thathelp to ensure your vehicle operates properly and provides the performance that you expect. Thesesystems utilize computers to monitor the operation of various systems and components and help tocontrol their operation. These computerized system operations are wide-ranging and involvecomponents to reduce emissions, to continuously evaluate the readiness of the airbag and seat beltpretensioner systems, to determine when the airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner systems should bedeployed and then to activate the deployment, and if equipped, to operate anti-lock braking, tractioncontrol and electrical stability control to assist the driver to control the vehicle in difficult drivingsituations. These systems electronically store information that is useful to service technicians whenthey need to diagnose and repair these systems. Additional information is stored only when a crashoccurs that results in the deployment of the airbags or seat belt pre-tensioners. This type of data storageis done by devices called event data recorders(EDR).After a crash event, the airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner computer system, known as the SupplementalRestraint System Control Module (SRSCM) or Airbag Control Unit (ACU), may record some informationabout the condition of the vehicle and how it was being operated. This information consists of datarelated to seat belt usage and if there was diagnostic information in the airbag or seat belt systemsat the time that a crash occurred, and if the ACU sensed that a crash of sufficient severity occurred torequire seat belt pre-tensioner or airbag deployment.

To retrieve this information, special equipment is needed and access to the vehicle or the device thatstores the data is required. Hyundai will not access information about a crash event or share it withothers 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 BELT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:All occupants of the vehicle must wear theirseat belts at all times. Seat belts and childrestraints reduce the risk of serious or fatalinjuries for all occupants in the event of acollision or sudden stop. Without a seatbelt, occupants could be shifted too closeto a deploying airbag, strike the interiorstructure or be thrown from the vehicle.Properly worn seat belts greatly reducethese hazards. Even with advanced airbags,unbelted occupants can be severely in-jured by a deploying airbag. Always followthe precautions about seat belts, airbagsand occupant safety contained in thismanual.

! WARNING:Every person in your vehicle needs to beproperly restrained at all times, includinginfants and children. Never hold a child inyour arms or lap when riding in a vehicle.The violent forces created during a crashwill tear the child from your arms and throwthe child against the interior. Always use achild restraint appropriate for your child'sheight and weight, see page 1-25.

NOTE:Small children are best protected from in-jury in an accident when properly restrainedin the rear seat by a child restraint systemthat meets the requirements of the FederalMotor Vehicle Safety Standards. Beforebuying any child restraint system, makesure that it has a label certifying that itmeets Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-dard 213. The restraint must be appropriatefor your child's height and weight. Checkthe label on the child restraint for thisinformation. See page 1-25.


WARNING:Riding with a reclined seatback increasesyour chance of serious or fatal injuries inthe event of a collision or sudden stop. Theprotection of your restraint system (seatbelts and airbags) is greatly reduced byreclining your seat. Seat belts must be snugagainst your hips and chest to work prop-erly. The more the seatback is reclined, thegreater the chance that an occupant's hipswill slide under the lap belt causing seriousinternal injuries or the occupant's neckcould strike the shoulder belt. Drivers andpassengers should always sit well back intheir seats, properly belted (see page 1-21),and with the seatbacks upright.

!B150E01A-AAT

Injured PersonA seat belt should be used when an injuredperson is being transported. When this is nec-essary, you should consult a physician forrecommendations.

B150F01A-AAT

One Person Per BeltTwo people (including children) should neverattempt to use a single seat belt. This couldincrease the severity of injuries in case of anaccident.

B150G02A-AAT

Do Not Lie DownTo reduce the chance of injuries in the event ofan accident and to achieve maximum effective-ness of the restraint system, all passengersshould be sitting up and the front seats shouldbe in an upright position when the car is moving.A seat belt cannot provide proper protection ifthe person is lying down in the rear seat or if thefront seat is in a reclined position.

SEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and RearSeat 3-Point System with CombinationLocking RetractorCombination retractor type seat belts are in-stalled in the rear seat positions to help accom-modate the installation of child restraint systems.Although a combination retractor is also installedin the front passenger seat position, Hyundaistrongly recommends that children always beseated in the rear seat. NEVER place any infantrestraint system in the front seat of the vehicle.This type of seat belt combines the features ofboth an emergency locking retractor seat beltand an automatic locking retractor seat belt. Tofasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retractorand insert the metal tab into the buckle. Therewill be an audible "click" when the tab locks intothe buckle. When not securing a child restraint,the seat belt operates in the same way as thedriver's seat belt (Emergency Locking Retrac-tor Type). It automatically adjusts to the properlength only after the lap belt portion of the seatbelt is adjusted manually so that it fits snuglyaround your hips. When the seat belt is fullyextended from the retractor to allow the instal-lation of a child restraint system, the seat beltoperation changes to allow the belt to retract, butnot to extend (Automatic Locking RetractorType). See page 1-29.

To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retractorand insert the metal tab into the buckle. Therewill be an audible "click" when the tab locks intothe buckle.The seat belt automatically adjusts to the properlength only after the lap belt portion is adjustedmanually so that it fits snugly around your hips.If you lean forward in a slow, easy motion, thebelt will extend and let you move around. If thereis a sudden stop or impact, however, the belt willlock into position. It will also lock if you try to leanforward too quickly.

NOTE:Although the combination retractor pro-vides the same level of protection for seatedpassengers in either emergency or auto-matic locking modes, it is recommendedthat seated passengers use the emergencylocking feature for improved convenience.The automatic locking function is intendedto facilitate child restraint installation. Toconvert from the automatic locking featureto the emergency locking operation mode,allow the unbuckled seat belt to fully re-tract.

WARNING:o For maximum restraint system protec-

tion, the seat belts must always be usedwhenever the car is moving.

o Seat belts are most effective whenseatbacks are in the upright position.

o Children age 12 and younger must al-ways be properly restrained in the rearseat. Never allow children to ride in thefront passenger seat. If a child over 13must be seated in the front seat, he/shemust be properly belted and the seatshould be moved as far back as possible.

o Never wear the shoulder belt under yourarm or behind your back. An improperlypositioned shoulder belt can cause se-rious injuries in a crash. The shoulderbelt should be positioned midway overyour shoulder across your collarbone.

o Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. Atwisted belt can't do its job as well. In acollision, it could even cut into you. Besure the belt webbing is straight and nottwisted.

o Be careful not to damage the belt web-bing or hardware. If the belt webbing orhardware is damaged, replace it.

!

WARNING:You should place the lap belt portion as lowas possible and snugly across your hips,not on your waist. If the lap belt is locatedtoo high on your waist, it may increase thechance of injury in the event of a collision.Both arms should not be under or over thebelt. Rather, one should be over and theother under, as shown in the illustration.Never wear the seat belt under the armnearest the door.

Driver's AirbagThe SRS uses a collection of sensors to gatherinformation about the driver's and frontpassenger's seat position, the driver's and frontpassenger's seat belt usage and impact sever-ity.

The driver's and front passenger's seat positionsensors, which are installed on the seat track,determine if the seats are fore or aft of areference position. Similarly, the seat belt usagesensors determine if the driver and frontpassenger's seat belts are fastened. Thesesensors provide the ability to control the SRSdeployment based on how close the driver'sseat is to the steering wheel, how close thepassenger's seat is to the instrument panel,whether or not the seat belts are fastened, andhow severe is the impact.

The advanced SRS offers the ability to controlthe airbag inflation with two levels. A first stagelevel is provided for moderate-severity impacts.A second stage level is provided for moresevere impacts.

According to the impact severity, seating posi-tion and seat belt usage, the SRSCM(SRSControl Module) controls the airbag inflation.Failure to properly wear seat belts can increasethe risk or severity of injury in an accident.

CAUTION:If the seat position sensor is not workingproperly, the SRS airbag warning light onthe instrument panel will illuminate even ifthere is no malfunction of the SRS airbagsystem, because the SRS airbag warninglight is connected with the seat positionsensor. If the SRS airbag warning light doesnot illuminate when the ignition key isturned to the "ON" position, if it remainsilluminated after coming on for approxi-mately 6 seconds, or if it illuminates whilethe vehicle is being driven, have an autho-rized Hyundai dealer inspect the seat posi-tion sensor and the advanced SRS airbagsystem as soon as possible.

Additionally, your Hyundai is equipped with anoccupant classification system in the frontpassenger's seat. The occupant classificationsystem detects the presence of a passenger inthe front passenger's seat and will turn off thefront passenger's airbag under certain condi-tions. For more detail, see "Occupant Classifi-cation System" later in this section.


!! WARNING:Always use seat belts and child restraints every trip, every time, everyone! Airbagsinflate with considerable force and in theblink of an eye. Seat belts help keep occu-pants in proper position to obtain maxi-mum benefit from the airbag. Even withadvanced airbags, improperly and unbeltedoccupants can be severely injured whenthe airbag inflates. Always follow the pre-cautions about seat belts, airbags and oc-cupant safety contained in this manual.

To reduce the chance of serious or fatalinjuries and receive the maximum safetybenefit from your restraint system:o Never place a child in any child or booster

seat in the front seat (see child restraints1-25).

o ABC Always Buckle Children in theback seat. It is the safest place forchildren of any age to ride.

o Front and side impact airbags can injureoccupants improperly positioned in thefront seats.

o Move your seat as far back as practicalfrom the front airbags, while still main-taining control of the vehicle.

o Never sit or lean unnecessarily close tothe front or side airbags.

! WARNING:o Modification to the seat structure can

adversely affect the seat position sensorand cause the airbag to deploy at adifferent level than should be provided.

o Do not place any objects underneath thefront seats which could damage the seatposition sensor or interfere with theoccupant classification system.

o Do not place any objects that may causemagnetic fields near the front seats.These may cause a malfunction of theseat position sensor.

NOTE:o Be sure to read information about the

SRS on the labels provided on the back-side of the sun visor and in the glove box.

o Advanced airbags are combined withpre-tensioner seat belts to help provideenhanced occupant protection in fron-tal crashes. Front airbags are not in-tended to deploy in light collisions inwhich protection can be provided by thepre-tensioner seat belt.

o If you are considering modification ofyour vehicle due to a disability, pleasecontact the Hyundai Customer Assis-tance Center at 1-800-633-5151.

o Never lean against the door or centerconsole always sit in an upright posi-tion.

o Do not allow an adult passenger to ridein the front seat when the PassengerAirbag OFF indicator is illuminated,because the airbag will not deploy in theevent of a moderate or severe frontalcrash.

o Never place objects over or near anyairbag module (front or side impactairbags), because these objects can in-jure passengers in a crash.

o Never place covers, blankets or after-market seat warmers on the passengerseat as these may interfere with theoccupant classification system.

o Do not tamper or disconnect SRS wiringor other components. Injuries couldresult from inadvertent deployment orfailure of the airbag to deploy in a crash.

o If the SRS airbag warning light (see pg 1-48) remains illuminated while the vehicleis being driven, have an authorizedHyundai dealer inspect the airbag sys-tem as soon as possible.

o Airbags can only be used once have anauthorized Hyundai dealer replace theairbag immediately after deployment.

Rear impact

Side ImpactRollover

WARNING:o The SRS is designed to deploy the front

airbags only when an impact is suffi-ciently severe and when the impact angleis less than 30 from the forward longi-tudinal axis of the vehicle. The frontairbags will not deploy in side, rear orrollover impacts. Additionally, theairbags will only deploy once. Seat beltsmust be worn at all times.

o Front airbags are not intended to deployin side-impact, rear-impact or rollovercrashes. In addition, airbags will notdeploy in frontal crashes below the de-ployment threshold.

! WARNING:o Move your seat as far back as practical

from the front airbags, while still main-taining control of the vehicle. You andyour passengers should never sit or leanunnecessarily close to the airbags. Im-properly positioned drivers and passen-gers can be severely injured by inflatingairbags.

o No objects should be placed over or nearthe airbag modules on the steeringwheel, instrument panel, and the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box,because any such object could causeharm if the vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the airbags to deploy.

o If the airbags deploy, they must be re-placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.Deployed airbags WILL NOT inflate againand will provide no protection in subse-quent collisions.

o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRSwiring or other components of the SRSsystem. Doing so could result in injury,due to accidental deployment of theairbags or by rendering the SRS inopera-tive.

o Even though your vehicle is equippedwith the occupant classification sys-tem, do not install a child restraint sys-tem in the front passenger seat position.A child restraint system must never beplaced in the front seat. The infant orchild could be severely injured or killedby an airbag deployment in case of anaccident.

o Children younger than 13 years mustalways be properly restrained in the rearseat. Never allow children to ride in thefront passenger seat. If a child over 13must be seated in the front seat, he orshe must be properly belted and the seatshould be moved as far back as possible.

o For maximum safety protection in alltypes of crashes, all occupants includ-ing the driver should always wear theirseat belts whether or not an airbag isalso provided at their seating position tominimize the risk of severe injury ordeath in the event of a crash. Do not sitor lean unnecessarily close to the airbagwhile the vehicle is in motion.

! WARNING:


! WARNING:The SRSCM continually monitors all elementswhile the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontalor near-frontal impact is severe enough torequire airbag deployment or pre-tensioner seatbelt deployment.

The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) onthe instrument panel will illuminate for about 6seconds after the ignition key is turned to the"ON" position or after the engine is started, afterwhich the SRI should go out.

The airbag modules are located both in thecenter of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box. Whenthe SRSCM detects a sufficiently severe impactto the front of the vehicle, it will automaticallydeploy the front airbags.

o Sitting improperly or out of position canresult in serious or fatal injury in a crash.All occupants should sit upright withthe seat back in an upright position,centered on the seat cushion with theirseat belt on, legs comfortably extendedand their feet on the floor until the ve-hicle is parked and the ignition key isremoved.

o The SRS airbag system must deploy veryrapidly to provide protection in a crash.If an occupant is out of position becauseof not wearing a seat belt, the airbag mayforcefully contact the occupant causingserious or fatal injuries.


A fully inflated airbag, in combination with aproperly worn seat belt, slows the driver's or thepassenger's forward motion, reducing therisk of head and chest injury.After complete inflation, the airbag immediatelystarts deflating, enabling the driver to maintainforward visibility, and the ability to steer oroperate other controls.

CAUTION:When installing a container of liquid airfreshener inside the vehicle, do not place itnear the instrument cluster nor on the in-strument panel surface. If there is any leak-age from the air freshener onto these areas(instrument cluster, instrument panel or airventilator), it may damage these parts. If theliquid from the air freshener does leak ontothese areas, wash them with water immedi-ately.

! WARNING:o If an airbag deploys, there may be a loud

noise followed by a fine dust released inthe vehicle. These conditions are nor-mal and are not hazardous - the airbagsare packed in this fine powder. The dustgenerated during airbag deploymentmay cause skin or eye irritation as well asaggravate asthma for some persons.Always wash all exposed skin areas thor-oughly with lukewarm water and a mildsoap after an accident in which theairbags were deployed.

!o The SRS can function only when the

ignition key is in the "ON" position. If theSRS SRI does not illuminate or contin-uously remains on after illuminating forabout 6 seconds when the ignition keyis turned to the "ON" position, or afterthe engine is started, illuminates whiledriving, the SRS is not working properly.If this occurs, have your vehicle immedi-ately inspected by your Hyundai dealer.

o Before you replace a fuse or disconnecta battery terminal, turn the ignition keyto the "LOCK" position or remove theignition key. Never remove or replace theair bag related fuse(s) when the ignitionkey is in the "ON" position. Failure toheed this warning will cause the SRS SRIto illuminate.

OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMYour vehicle is equipped with an occupantclassification system in the front passenger'sseat.The Occupant Classification system is de-signed to detect the presence of a properly-seated front passenger and determine if thepassenger's front airbag should be enabled(may inflate) or not. The driver's front airbag isnot affected or controlled by the OccupantClassification system.

If the front passenger seat is occupied by aperson that the system determines to be of adultsize, and he/she sits properly (sitting uprightwith the seatback in an upright position, cen-tered on the seat cushion with their seat belt on,

legs comfortably extended and their feet on thefloor), the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indi-cator will be turned off and the front passenger'sairbag will be able to inflate, if necessary, infrontal crashes.You will find the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"indicator on the center facia panel. This systemdetects the conditions 1~4 in the following tableand activates or deactivates front passengerairbags based on these conditions.

Condition and operation in the front pas-senger occupant classification system

*1)The system judges a person of adult size asan adult. When a smaller adult sits in the frontpassenger seat, the system may detect him/her as a child depending on his/her physiqueand posture.

*2) When a larger child who has outgrown a childrestraint system sits in the passenger seat,the system may detect him/her as an adultdepending on his/her physique and posture.

*3)Never install a child restraint system on thefront passenger seat.

WARNING:Riding in an improper position or placingweight on the front passenger's seat whenit is unoccupied by a passenger adverselyaffects the occupant classification system(OCS).

o NEVER excessively recline the front pas-senger seatback.

NOTE:The "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicatorilluminates for about 4 seconds after theignition key is turned to the "ON" positionor after the engine is started. If the frontpassenger seat is occupied, the occupantclassification sensor will then classify thefront passenger after several more sec-onds.

CAUTION:If the occupant classification system is notworking properly, the SRS airbag warninglight on the instrument panel willilluminate because the passenger's frontairbags are connected with the occupantclassification system. If there is a malfunc-tion of the occupant classification system,the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicatorwill illuminate and the passenger's frontairbags will not inflate in frontal impactcrashes even if there is adult occupant inthe front passenger's seat. If the SRS airbagwarning light does not illuminate when theignition key is turned to the "ON" position,remains illuminated after approximately 6seconds when the ignition key is turned tothe "ON" position, or if it illuminates whilethe vehicle is being driven, have an autho-rized Hyundai dealer inspect the occupantclassification system and the SRS airbagsystem as soon as possible.

! WARNING:o Even though your vehicle is equipped

with the occupation classification sys-tem, never install a child restraint systemin the front passenger's seat. A deploy-ing airbag can forcefully strike a childresulting in serious injuries or death.Any child under 13 years of age shouldride in the rear seat. Children too largefor child restraints should use the avail-able lap/shoulder belts. No matter whattype of crash, children of all ages aresafer when restrained in the rear seat.

o If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indi-cator is illuminated when the frontpassenger's seat is occupied by an adultand he/she sits properly (sitting uprightwith the seatback in an upright position,centered on the seat cushion with theirseat belt on, legs comfortably extendedand their feet on the floor), have thatperson sit in the rear seat.

o Do not modify or replace the front pas-senger seat. Don't place anything on orattach anything such as a blanket orafter market seat heater to the frontpassenger seat. This can adversely af-fect the occupant classification system.

WARNING:Do not allow an adult passenger to ride inthe front seat when the PASSENGERAIRBAG OFF indicator is illuminated, be-cause the airbag will not deploy in the eventof a crash. If the "PASSENGER AIR BAGOFF" indicator remains illuminated afterthe passenger repositions themselves prop-erly and the car is restarted, Hyundai recom-mends that passenger move to the rear seatbecause the passenger's front airbag willnot deploy.Front seat passengers must stay properlyseated to avoid serious injury from a de-ploying airbag. For more information seepage 1-38.

Side Impact Airbag

Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impactairbag in each front seat. The purpose of theairbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/orthe front passenger with additional protectionthan that offered by the seat belt alone. The sideimpact airbags are designed to deploy onlyduring certain side-impact collisions, depend-ing on the crash severity, angle, speed and pointof impact. The side impact airbags are notdesigned to deploy in all side impact situ
