Airbag
Seven airbags are installed in the Niro, located in standard area of the vehicle so that the first responder can find them immediately. Before emergency procedure, make sure the vehicle ignition switch is turned off, disconnect the negative connector from the 12V auxiliary battery (located in the right side of the luggage room) to prevent accidental deployment of undeployed airbags.

Seat Belt Pretensioner
The Niro is equipped with driver's and front passenger's seat belts with pretensioners. When the seat belt pretensioners are activated in a collision, 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. The seat belt pretensioner assembly mechanisms may become hot during activation, and may need several minutes to cool after they have been activated.
