1 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 54 B990B02MC-AAT ! WARNING: ! Side Impact Airbag (If Installed) WARNING: o If you change the weight on the front passenger seat just after sit-in or restart of the engine, the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator may be turned on or off for a few seconds, disabling or enabling the passenger airbags. After the initial stage of about 30 seconds, the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator will not toggle. o Do not modify or replace the front passenger seat. Don't place anything on or attach anything such as a blanket or after market seat heater to the front passenger seat. This can adversely affect the occupant classification system. o Do not sit on sharp objects such as tools when occupying the front passenger seat. This can adversely affect the occupant classification system. o Do not use accessory seat covers on the front seats. o Accident statistics show that children are safer if they are restrained in the rear, as opposed to the front seat. It is recommended that child restraints be secured in a rear seat, including an infant riding in a rearfacing infant seat, a child riding in a forward-facing child seat and an older child riding in a booster seat. o Airbags can only be used once - have an authorized Hyundai dealer replace the airbag immediately after deployment. B990B02LZ Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impact airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that offered by the seat belt alone. The side impact airbags are designed to deploy only during certain side-impact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. The side impact airbags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations.
