Safety system

(1) SRS airbag warning light
(2) Retractor pretensioner
(3) SRS control module
(4) Emergency Fastening Device
The pretensioner seat belt system
consists mainly of the following
components. Their locations are shown in
the illustration above.
The sensor that activates the SRS control
module is connected with the
pretensioner seat belts. The SRS airbag
warning light on the instrument cluster
will illuminate for about 3-6 seconds after
the Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON
position, and then turns off.
If the pretensioner is not working
properly, the warning light will illuminate
even if the SRS airbag is not
malfunctioning. If the warning light does
not illuminate, stays illuminated or
illuminates when the vehicle is being
driven, have the pretensioner seat belts
and/or SRS control module inspected by
an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products as soon as possible.
• Pretensioner seat belts may be
activated in certain frontal or side
collisions or rollover situations.
• When the pretensioner seat belts are
activated, a loud noise may be heard
and fine dust, which may appear to be
smoke, may be visible in the passenger
compartment. These are normal
operating conditions and are not
hazardous.
• Although it is non-toxic, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should not
be inhaled for prolonged periods. Wash
all exposed skin areas thoroughly after
an accident in which the pretensioner
seat belts were activated.
• Fasten your seat belt while sitting
properly in an upright position to
maximize the effectiveness of the
pre-tensioner seat belt system.
• A pretensioner seat belt system is
designed to activate only once. Replace
the pre-tensioner seat belt system, if it
was activated in an accident.
