What to Expect After an Air Bag Inflates

After a frontal or side air bag inflates, it will deflate very quickly. Air bag inflation will not prevent the driver from seeing out of the windshield or being able to steer. Curtain air bags may remain partially inflated for some time after they deploy.

WARNING
After an air bag inflates, take the following precautions:

1. Open your windows and doors as soon as possible after impact to reduce prolonged exposure to the smoke and powder released by the inflating air bag.
2. Do not touch the air bag storage area’s internal components immediately after an air bag has inflated. The parts that come into contact with an inflating airbag may be very hot.
3. Always wash exposed skin areas thoroughly with cold water and mild soap.
4. Always have an authorized HYUNDAI dealer replace the airbag immediately after deployment. Airbags are designed to be used only once.

Noise and smoke from inflating airbag
When the airbags inflate, they make a loud noise and may produce smoke and powder in the air inside of the vehicle. This is normal and is a result of the ignition of the airbag inflator. After the air bag inflates, you may feel substantial discomfort in breathing because of the contact of your chest with both the seat belt and the airbag, as well as from breathing the smoke and powder. The powder may aggravate asthma in some people. If you experience breathing problems after an air bag deployment, seek medical attention immediately. Though the smoke and powder are nontoxic, they may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, nose, throat, etc. If this is the case, wash and rinse with cold water immediately and seek medical attention if the symptoms persist.

Main components of the Occupant Classification System

1. A detection device located within the front passenger seat cushion.
2. Electronic system to determine whether the passenger air bag systems should be activated or deactivated.
3. An indicator light located on the instrument panel which illuminates the words “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicating the front passen-ger air bag system is deactivated.
4. The instrument panel air bag indi-cator light is interconnected with the OCS.

The OCS is designed to help detect the presence of a properly-seated front passenger and determine if the passenger’s front airbag should be enabled (may inflate) or not.
The purpose is to help reduce the risk of injury or death from an inflating air bag to certain front passenger seat occupants, such as children, by requiring the air bag to be automatically turned OFF.
For example, if a child restraint of the type specified in the regulations is on the seat, the occupant classification sensor can detect it and cause the airbag to turn OFF.
Front passenger seat adult occupants who are properly seated and wearing the seat belt properly, should not cause the passenger airbag to be automatically turned OFF. For small adults it may be turned OFF, however, if the occupant does not sit in the seat properly (for example, by not sitting upright, by sitting on the edge of the seat, or by otherwise being out of position), this could cause the sensor to turn the airbag OFF.

You will find the “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator on the center facia panel. This system detects conditions 1-4 in the following table and activates or deactivates the front passenger air bag based on these conditions. Always be sure that you and all vehicle occupants are seated properly and wearing the seat belt properly for the most effective protection by the airbag and the seat belt.
The OCS may not function properly if the passenger takes actions that can affect the classification system.

These include:

1. Failing to sit in an upright position.
2. Leaning against the door or center console.
3. Sitting towards the sides of the front of the seat.
4. Putting their legs on the dashboard or resting them on other locations reduces the passenger weight on the front seat.
5. Wearing the seat belt improperly.
6. Reclining the seatback.
7. Wearing thick cloth like ski wear or hip protection wear.
8. Putting an additional thick cushion on the seat.
9. Putting electrical devices (e.g. notebook, satellite radio) on the seat with inverter charging.

WARNING
Riding in an improper position or placing weight on the front passenger’s seat when it is unoccupied by a passenger adversely affects the OCS.

Never allow an adult passenger to ride in the front passenger seat when the “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator is illu-minated. During a collision, the air bag will not inflate if the indi-cator is illuminated. Have your passenger reposition them-selves in the seat. If the “PAS-SENGER AIR BAG OFF” indica-tor remains illuminated after the passenger repositions himself properly and the vehicle is restarted, have the passenger move to the rear seat because the air bag will not inflate.

NOTICE
The “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator illuminates for approximately 4 seconds after the ignition switch is in the ON position or after the engine is started. If the front passenger seat is occupied, the OCS will then classify the front passenger after several more seconds.

Why Didn’t My Air Bag Go Off in a Collision?
Air bags are not designed to inflate in every collision. There are certain types of accidents in which the air bag would not be expected to pro-vide additional protection. These include rear impacts, second or third collisions in multiple impact accidents, as well as low-speed impacts. Damage to the vehicle indicates a collision energy absorption, and is not an indicator of whether or not an air bag should have inflated.
