This chapter provides you with important information about how to protect
yourself and your passengers. It explains how to properly use your seats and seat
belts, and how your air bags work.
Additionally, this chapter explains how to properly restrain infants and children in
your vehicle.

4-2
Safety system
You will find many safety precautions
and recommendations throughout this
section, and throughout this manual.
The safety precautions in this section are
among the most important.
Always wear your seat belt
A seat belt is your best protection in all
types of accidents. Air bags are designed
to supplement seat belts, not replace
them. So even though your vehicle is
equipped with air bags, ALWAYS make
sure you and your passengers wear your
seat belts, and wear them properly.
Restrain all children
All children under age 13 should ride
in your vehicle properly restrained in a
rear seat, not the front seat. Infants and
small children should be restrained in
an appropriate child restraint. Larger
children should use a booster seat with
the lap/shoulder belt until they can use
the seat belt properly without a booster
seat.
Air bag hazards
While air bags can save lives, they can
also cause serious or fatal injuries to
occupants who sit too close to them, or
who are not properly restrained. Infants,
young children, and short adults are at
the greatest risk of being injured by an
inflating air bag. Follow all instructions
and warnings in this manual.
Driver distraction
Driver distraction presents a serious and
potentially deadly danger, especially for
inexperienced drivers. Safety should be
the first concern when behind the wheel
and drivers need to be aware of the wide
array of potential distractions, such as
drowsiness, reaching for objects, eating,
personal grooming, other passengers,
and using cellular phones.
Drivers can become distracted when
they take their eyes and attention off
the road or their hands off the wheel to
focus on activities other than driving. To
reduce your risk of distraction and an
accident:
• ALWAYS set up your mobile devices
(i.e., MP3 players, phones, navigation
units, etc.) when your vehicle is parked
or safely stopped.
• ONLY use your mobile device when
allowed by laws and conditions permit
safe use.
NEVER text or email while driving.
Most countries have laws prohibiting
drivers from texting. Some countries
and cities also prohibit drivers from
using handheld phones.
• NEVER let the use of a mobile device
distract you from driving. You have a
responsibility to your passengers and
others on the road to always drive
safely, with your hands on the wheel
as well as your eyes and attention on
the road.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

4-15
04
SEAT BELTS
WARNING
• For maximum restraint system
protection, the seat belts must
always be used whenever the car is
moving.
• Seat belts are most effective when
seatbacks are in the upright position.
• Children age 12 and under must
always be properly restrained in the
rear seat. Never allow children to
ride in the front passenger seat. If a
child over 12 must be seated in the
front seat, he/she must be properly
belted and the seat should be moved
as far back as possible.
• Never wear the shoulder belt under
your arm or behind your back. An
improperly positioned shoulder
belt can cause serious injuries in
a crash. The shoulder belt should
be positioned midway over your
shoulder across your collarbone.
• Never wear a seat belt over fragile
objects. If there is a sudden stop or
impact, the seat belt can damage it.
• Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A
twisted belt can’t do its job as well. In
a collision, it could even cut into you.
Be sure the belt webbing is straight
and not twisted.
• Be careful not to damage the belt
webbing or hardware. If the belt
webbing or hardware is damaged,
replace it.
WARNING
Seat belts are designed to bear upon
the bony structure of the body, and
should be worn low across the front
of the pelvis or the pelvis, chest and
shoulders, as applicable; wearing
the lap section of the belt across the
abdominal area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly
as possible, consistent with comfort, to
provide the protection for which they
have been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoid
contamination of the webbing with
polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild
soap and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged.
It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in a
severe impact even if damage to the
assembly is not obvious. Belts should
not be worn with straps twisted. Each
belt assembly must only be used by
one occupant; it is dangerous to put a
belt around a child being carried on the
occupant’s lap.

4-22
Safety system
NOTICE
The sensor that activates the SRS
control module is connected with the
pre–tensioner seat belts. The SRS air
bag warning light on the instrument
cluster will illuminate for approximately
6 seconds after the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position, and then it
should turn off. If the pre-tensioner is
not working properly, the warning light
will illuminate even if the SRS air bag is
not malfunctioning. If the warning light
does not illuminate,stays illuminated
or illuminates when the vehicle is
being driven, we recommend the pre-
tensioner seat belts and/or SRS control
module be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
i Information
• Both the driver’s and front passenger’s
pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in certain frontal or side
collisions.
• When the pre-tensioner 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 pre-
tensioner seat belts were activated.
Additional seat belt safety
precautions
Seat belt use during pregnancy
The seat belt should always be used
during pregnancy. The best way to
protect your unborn child is to protect
yourself by always wearing the seat
belt. Pregnant women should always
wear a lap-shoulder seat belt. Place the
shoulder belt across your chest, routed
between your breasts and away from
your neck. Place the lap belt below your
belly so that it fits SNUGLY across your
hips and pelvic bone, under the rounded
part of the belly.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death to an unborn child during an
accident, pregnant women should
NEVER place the lap portion of the
seat belt above or over the area of the
abdomen where the unborn child is
located.
Seat belt use and children
Infant and small children
Most countries have Child Restraint
System laws which require children
to travel in approved Child Restraint
System devices, including booster seats.
The age at which seat belts can be
used instead of Child Restraint System
differs among countries, so you should
be aware of the specific requirements
in your country, and where you are
travelling. Infant and Child Restraint
System must be properly placed and
installed in a rear seat. For more details
refer to the “Child Restraint Systems”in
this chapter.

4-23
04
WARNING
ALWAYS properly restrain infants and
small children in a Child Restraint
System appropriate for the child’s
height and weight. To reduce the risk
of serious injury or death to a child and
other passengers,NEVER hold a child
in your lap or arms when the vehicle
is moving.The violent forces created
during an accident will tear the child
from your arms and throw the child
against the interior of the vehicle.
Small children are best protected from
injury in an accident when properly
restrained in the rear seat by a Child
Restraint System that meets the
requirements of the Safety Standards of
your country. Before buying any Child
Restraint System, make sure that it has
a label certifying that it meets Safety
Standard of your country. The Child
Restraint System must be appropriate
for your child’s height and weight. Check
the label on the Child Restraint System
for this information. Refer to “Child
Restraint Systems” in this chapter.
Larger children
Children under age 13 and who are too
large for a booster seat should always
occupy the rear seat and use the
available lap/shoulder belts. A seat belt
should lie across the upper thighs and
be snug across the shoulder and chest
to restrain the child safely. Check belt fit
periodically. A child’s squirming could
put the belt out of position.In the event
of an accident, children are afforded the
best safety restrained by a proper Child
Restraint System in the rear seats.If a larger child over age 13 must be
seated in the front seat, the child must
be securely restrained by the available
lap/shoulder belt and the seat should be
placed in the rearmost position. If the
shoulder belt portion slightly touches
the child’s neck or face, try placing the
child closer to the center of the vehicle.If
the shoulder belt still touches their face
or neck, they need to be returned to an
appropriate booster seat in the rear seat.
WARNING
• Always make sure larger children’s
seat belts are worn and properly
adjusted.
• NEVER allow the shoulder belt to
contact the child’s neck or face.
• Do not allow more than one child to
use a single seat belt.
Seat belt use and injured people
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
Consult a physician for specific
recommendations.
One person per belt
Two people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt.
This could increase the severity of
injuries in case of an accident.

4-25
04
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Children riding in the car should sit
in the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained in the rear
seats than in the front seat. Larger
children not in a child restraint should
use one of the seat belts provided.
You should be aware of the specific
requirements in your country. Child and/
or infant safety seats must be properly
placed and installed in the rear seat.
You must use a commercially available
child restraint system that meets the
requirements of the Safety Standards of
your country.
Child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats by the lap
belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt.
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured. For small children and babies, a
child seat or infant seat must be used.
Before buying a particular child restraint
syst em, make sure it fits your car seat
and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow
all the instructions provided by the
manufacturer when installing the child
restraint system. WARNING
• A child restraint system must be
placed in the rear seat. Never install
a child or infant seat on the front
passenger’s seat. Should an accident
occur and cause the passenger-side
air bag to deploy, it could severely
injure or kill an infant or child seated
in an infant or child seat. Thus only
use a child restraint in the rear seat of
your vehicle.
• A seat belt or child restraint system
can become very hot if it is left in a
closed vehicle on a sunny day, even
if the outside temperature does not
feel hot. Be sure to check the seat
cover and buckles before placing a
child there.
• When the child restraint system is not
in use, store it in the luggage area or
fasten it with a seat belt so that it will
not be thrown forward in the case of
a sudden stop or an accident.
• Children may be seriously injured
or killed by an inflating air bag. All
children, even those too large for
child restraints, must ride in the rear
seat.

4-26
Safety system
WARNING
To reduce the chance of serious or fatal
injuries:
• Children of all ages are safer when
restrained in the rear seat. A child
riding in the front passenger seat can
be forcefully struck by an inflating
air bag resulting in serious or fatal
injuries.
• Always follow the instructions for
installation and use of the child
restraint maker.
• Always make sure the child seat is
secured properly in the car and your
child is securely restrained in the
child seat.
• Never hold a child in your arms or lap
when riding in a vehicle. The violent
forces created during a crash will tear
the child from your arms and throw
the child against the car’s interior.
• Never put a seat belt over yourself
and a child. During a crash, the
belt could press deep into the child
causing serious internal injuries.
• Never leave children unattended
in a vehicle - not even for a short
time. The car can heat up very
quickly, resulting in serious injuries
to children inside. Even very young
children may inadvertently cause the
vehicle to move, entangle themselves
in the windows, or lock themselves or
others inside the vehicle.
• Never allow two children, or any two
persons, to use the same seat belt.• Children often squirm and reposition
themselves improperly. Never let
a child ride with the shoulder belt
under their arm or behind their back.
Always properly position and secure
children in rear seat.
• Never allow a child to stand-up or
kneel on the seat or floorboard of a
moving vehicle. During a collision
or sudden stop, the child can be
violently thrown against the vehicles
interior, resulting in serious injury.
• Never use an infant carrier or a
child safety seat that “hooks” over
a seatback, it may not provide
adequate security in an accident.
• Seat belts can become very hot,
especially when the car is parked in
direct sunlight. Always check seat
belt buckles before fastening them
over a child.
• After an accident, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• If there is not enough space to place
the child restraint system because
of the driver’s seat, install the child
restraint system in the rear right seat.

For small children and babies, the use
of a child seat or infant seat is required.
This child seat or infant seat should be of
appropriate size for the child and should
be installed in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
For safety reasons, we recommend that
the child restraint system is used in the
rear seats.
WARNING
Never place a rear-facing child restraint
in the front passenger seat, because of
the danger that an inflating passenger-
side air bag could impact the rear-
facing child restraint and kill the child.
WARNING
Child seat installation
• A child can be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the child
restraint is not properly anchored to
the car and the child is not properly
restrained in the child restraint.
Before installing the child restraint
system, read the instructions
supplied by the child restraint system
manufacturer.
• If the seat belt does not operate
as described in this section, we
recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
• Failure to observe this manual’s
instructions regarding child restraint
system and the instructions provided
with the child restraint system could
increase the risk and/or severity of
injury in an accident.

Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
WARNING
Before installing your Child Restraint
System always:
• Read and follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the
Child Restraint System.
Failure to follow all warnings and
instructions could increase the risk of
the SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH if an
accident occurs.
WARNING
If the vehicle headrest prevents proper
installation of a Child Restraint System
(as described in the Child Restraint
System manual), the headrest of the
respective seating position shall be
readjusted or entirely removed.After selecting a proper Child Restraint
System and checking that the Child
Restraint System fits properly in the rear
of this vehicle, you are ready to install
the Child Restraint System according to
the manufacturer’s instruction. There are
three general steps in installing the Child
Restraint System properly:
• Properly secure the Child Restraint
System to the vehicle. All Child
Restraint Systems must be secured to
the vehicle with the lap belt or lap part
of a lap/shoulder belt or with the top-
tether and/or ISOFIX anchorage.
• Make sure the Child Restraint System
is firmly secured. After installing a
Child Restraint System to the vehicle,
push and pull the Child Restraint
System forward and from side-
to-side to verify that it is securely
attached to the vehicle seat. A Child
Restraint System secured with a seat
belt should be installed as firmly as
possible. However, some side-to-side
movement can be expected.
When installing a Child Restraint
System, adjust the vehicle seat (up
and down, forward and rearward)
so that your child fits in the Child
Restraint System in a comfortable
manner.
• Secure the child in the Child
Restraint System. Make sure the
child is properly strapped in the Child
Restraint System according to the
Child Restraint System manufacturer’s
instructions.
WARNING
A Child Restraint System in a closed
vehicle can become very hot. To
prevent burns, check the seating
surface and buckles before placing
your child in the Child Restraint
System.
