Passenger’s front airbag
2C_PassengerAirbagDeployment
After complete inflation, the airbag
immediately starts deflating, enabling the
driver to maintain forward visibility and
steer or operate other controls.
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 instrument panel surface.
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.
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.
