SIDE IMPACT AIR BAGS

DESCRIPTION:

Hyundai vehicles are equipped with side impact air bags installed in both the driver side and passenger side front seats. Any modification(s) of the seats may prevent proper operation of the side impact air bags when they are intended to deploy in a collision and can result in serious injury or death. To ensure proper operation of the side impact air bags:

^ Do not install any accessory seat covers.

^ Do not reupholster the seat backs with after-market upholstery (such as a leather kit).

^ Do not repair damaged upholstery without using Hyundai Genuine Parts.

Refer to the appropriate Service Manual and/or Owner's Manual for additional information on the Supplemental Restraint System.
