NOTICE• If you are not able to pull out the safe-
ty belt from the retractor, firmly pull
the belt out and release it. Then you
will be able to pull the belt out
smoothly.
• If the driver's safety belt is not fas-
tened when the key is turned ON or if
it is disconnected after the key is
turned ON, the safety belt warning
light will blink until the belt is fas-
tened.
If the driver's safety belt is not fas-
tened when the key is turned ON or if
it is unfastened after the key is ON,
the safety belt warning chime will
sound for approximately 6 seconds.
Seat belts - Front passenger and
rear seat 3-point system with
combination locking retractorTo fasten your belt Combination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child
restraint systems. Although a combina-
tion retractor is also installed in the front
passenger seat position, Hyundai strong-
ly recommends that children always be
seated in the rear seat. NEVER place
any infant restraint system in the front
seat of the vehicle.
This type of seat belt combines the fea-
tures of both an emergency locking
retractor seat belt and an automatic lock-
ing retractor seat belt. To fasten your seat
belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert
the metal tab into the buckle. There will
be an audible "click" when the tab locks
into the buckle. When not securing a
child restraint, the seat belt operates in
the same way as the driver's seat belt
(Emergency Locking Retractor Type). It
automatically adjusts to the proper length
only after the lap belt portion of the seat
belt is adjusted manually so that it fits
snugly around your hips.When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of a
child restraint system, the seat belt oper-
ation changes to allow the belt to retract,
but not to extend (Automatic Locking
Retractor Type). See page 3-75.
✽ ✽
NOTICEAlthough the combination retractor
provides the same level of protection for
seated passengers in either emergency
or automatic locking modes, it is recom-
mended that seated passengers use the
emergency locking feature for improved
convenience. The automatic locking
function is intended to facilitate child
restraint installation. To convert from
the automatic locking feature to the
emergency locking operation mode,
allow the unbuckled seat belt to fully
retract.
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.

device into the web release button (E)
on the anchor connector. Pull up on
the seat belt web (A) and allow the
webbing to retract automatically.
4. Insert the tongue plate (A) into the
hole on the belt assembly cover.
Stowing the rear seat belt The rear seat belt can be stowed in the
pocket between the rear seatback and
cushion when not in use.
Proper use and care of the seat
belt system To ensure that the seat belts provide the
maximum protection, please follow these
instructions:
Use the seat belts at all times - even on
short trips.
If the seat belt is twisted, straighten it
prior to use.
Keep sharp edges and damaging
objects away from the seat belts.
After wearing a seat belt, make sure it
fully retracts to the stowed position. Do
not allow the belt to get caught in the
door when you close it.

NOTICE• Both the driver's and front passen-
ger's pre-tensioner seat belts will be
activated in certain frontal collisions.
The pre-tensioner seat belts can be
activated alone or, where the frontal
collision is severe enough, together
with the air bags.
The pre-tensioners will not be activat-
ed if the seat belts are not being worn
at the time of the collision.
• 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 oper-
ating conditions and are not haz-
ardous.
• Although it is harmless, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should
not be breathed for prolonged peri-
ods. Wash all exposed skin areas thor-
oughly after an accident in which the
pre-tensioner seat belts were activat-
ed.
CAUTION
Because the sensor that activates
the SRS air bag is connected with
the pre-tensioner seat belt, the
SRS air bag warning light on
the instrument panel will illumi-
nate for approximately 6 seconds
after the ignition key has been
turned to the "ON" position, and
then it should turn off.
If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not
working properly, this warning
light will illuminate even if there is
no malfunction of the SRS air bag.
If the SRS air bag warning light
does not illuminate when the igni-
tion key is turned to "ON", or if it
blinks for a second and remains
illuminated after illuminating for
approximately 6 seconds, or if it
illuminates while the vehicle is
being driven, please have an
authorized Hyundai dealer inspect
the pre-tensioner seat belt or SRS
air bag system as soon as possi-
ble.

BAG
WARNING
To obtain maximum benefit from a
pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seatbelt must be work cor-
rectly and adjusted to the proper
position (see pages 3-59). Please
read and follow all of the impor-
tant information and precautions
about your vehicle’s occupant
safety features – including seat
belts and advanced air bags –
that are provided in this manual.
2. Be sure you and your passengers
always wear seat belts and wear
them properly.

NOTICE• Be sure to read information about the
SRS on the labels provided on the sun
visor and in the glove box.
• Advanced air bags are combined with
pre-tensioner seat belts to help pro-
vide enhanced occupant protection in
frontal crashes. Front air bags are not
intended to deploy in collisions in
which sufficient protection can be
provided by the pre-tensioner seat
belt.
• If you are considering modification of
your vehicle due to a disability, please
contact the Hyundai Customer
Assistance Center at 1-800-633-5151.
CAUTION
If a seat track position sensor or an
occupant classification system is
not working properly, the SRS air
bag warning light on the instru-
ment panel will illuminate because
the SRS air bag warning light is
connected with the seat track posi-
tion sensor and the occupant clas-
sification system. If the SRS air bag
warning light does not illuminate
when the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position, remains illumi-
nated after approximately 6 sec-
onds when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, or if it
illuminates while the vehicle is
being driven, have an authorized
Hyundai dealer inspect the
advanced SRS air bag system as
soon as possible.
AIR
BAG
WARNING
Modification to the seat structure
can adversely affect the seat
track position sensor and cause
the air bag to deploy at a different
level than should be provided.
Do not place any objects under-
neath the front seats as they
could damage the seat track posi-
tion sensor or interfere with the
occupant classification system.
Do not place any objects that may
cause magnetic fields near the
front seat. These may cause a
malfunction of the seat track
position sensor.

SRS components and functionsThe SRS consists of the following com-
ponents:
1. Front Impact Sensors
2. "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
Indicator (Front passenger's seat only)
3. SRS "AIR BAG" warning light
4. Knee Bolster
5. Passenger's Air bag Module
6. Driver's Air bag Module
7. SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
8. Occupant Classification System
(Front passenger's seat only)
9. Driver's Seat Track Position Sensor
10. Driver's and Front Passenger's Seat
Belt Buckle Sensors
11. Side Impact Sensors
12. Retractor Pre-tensioner Assemblies
13. Side Impact Air bag Modules
14. Curtain Air bag ModulesThe SRSCM continually monitors all ele-
ments while the ignition is "ON" to deter-
mine if a frontal or near-frontal impact is
severe enough to require air bag deploy-
ment or pre-tensioner seat belt deploy-
ment.
The SRS "AIR BAG" warning light on the
instrument panel will illuminate for about
6 seconds after the ignition key is turned
to the "ON" position or after the engine is
started, after which the "AIR BAG" warn-
ing light should go out.
(Continued)
For maximum safety protection in
all types of crashes, all occupants
including the driver should
always wear their seat belts
whether or not an air bag is also
provided at their seating position
to minimize the risk of severe
injury or death in the event of a
crash. Do not sit or lean unneces-
sarily close to the air bag while
the vehicle is in motion.
Sitting improperly or out of posi-
tion can result in serious or fatal
injury in a crash. All occupants
should sit upright with the seat
back in an upright position, cen-
tered on the seat cushion with
their seat belt on, legs comfort-
ably extended and their feet on
the floor until the vehicle is
parked and the ignition key is
removed.
The SRS air bag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If an occu-
pant is out of position because of
not wearing a seat belt, the air
bag may forcefully contact the
occupant causing serious or fatal
injuries.

Features of your vehicle86 3
Occupant classification systemYour vehicle is equipped with an occu-
pant classification system in the front
passenger's seat.
The occupant classification system is
designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated front passenger and
determine if the passenger's front air bag
should be enabled (may inflate) or not.
The driver's front air bag is not affected
or controlled by the occupant classifica-
tion system.If the front passenger seat is occupied by
a person that the system determines to
be of adult size, and he/she sits properly
(sitting upright with the seatback in an
upright position, centered on the seat
cushion with their seat belt on, legs com-
fortably extended and their feet on the
floor), the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator will be turned off and the front
passenger's air bag will be able to inflate,
if necessary, in frontal crashes.
You will find the "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicator on the center facia panel.
This system detects the conditions 1~4
in the following table and activates or
deactivates front passenger air bags
based on these conditions.
(Continued)
The SRS can function only when
the ignition key is in the "ON"
position. If the SRS "AIR BAG"
warning light does not illuminate,
or continuously remains on after
illuminating for about 6 seconds
when the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position, or after the
engine is started, comes on while
driving, the SRS is not working
properly. If this occurs, have your
vehicle immediately inspected by
your Hyundai dealer.
Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turn
the ignition key to the "LOCK"
position and remove the ignition
key. Never remove or replace the
air bag related fuse(s) when the
ignition key is in the "ON" posi-
tion. Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS "AIR BAG"
warning light to illuminate.

Features of your vehicle
When an adult is seated in the front pas-
senger seat, if the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator is on, turn the igni-
tion key to "LOCK" and ask the passen-
ger to sit properly (sitting upright with the
seat back in an upright position, centered
on the seat cushion with their seat belt
on, legs comfortably extended and their
feet on the floor). Restart the engine and
have the person remain in that position.
This will allow the system to detect the
person and to enable the passenger air
bag.If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indi-
cator is still on, ask the passenger to
move to the rear seat.
✽ ✽
NOTICEThe "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator illuminates for about 4 sec-
onds after the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position or after the engine is
started. If the front passenger seat is
occupied, the occupant classification
sensor will then classify the front pas-
senger after several more seconds.
B990A01O
Proper position
WARNING
Do not allow a passenger to ride in
the front seat when the “PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG OFF” indicator is illu-
minated, because the air bag will
not deploy in the event of a crash. If
the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator remains illuminated after
the passenger repositions them-
selves properly and the car is
restarted, Hyundai recommends
that passenger move to the rear
seat because the passenger's front
air bag will not deploy.
Front seat passengers must stay
properly seated to avoid serious
injury from a deploying air bag.
WARNING
Do not put a heavy load in the front
passenger seatback pocket or on
the front passenger seat. Do not
hang onto the front passenger seat.
Do not hang any items such as
seatback table on the front passen-
ger seatback. Do not place feet on
the front passenger seatback. Do
not place any items under the front
passenger seat. Any of these could
interfere with proper sensor opera-
tion.

Features of your vehicle90 3
CAUTION
If the occupant classification sys-
tem is not working properly, the
SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument panel will illuminate
because the passenger's front air
bags are connected with the occu-
pant classification system. If there
is a malfunction of the occupant
classification system, the "PAS-
SENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator
will not illuminate and the passen-
ger's front air bags will inflate in
frontal impact crashes even if there
is no occupant in the front passen-
ger's seat. If the SRS air bag warn-
ing light does not illuminate when
the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position, remains illuminated
after approximately 6 seconds
when the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position, or if it illuminates
while the vehicle is being driven,
have an authorized Hyundai dealer
inspect the occupant classification
system and the SRS air bag system
as soon as possible.
(Continued)
Do not modify or replace the front
passenger seat. Don't place any-
thing on or attach anything such
as a blanket or after market seat
heater to the front passenger
seat. This can adversely affect the
occupant classification system.
Do not sit on sharp objects such
as tools when occupying the front
passenger seat. This can adverse-
ly affect the occupant classifica-
tion system.
Do not use accessory seat covers
on the front seats.
(Continued)
WARNING
Even though your vehicle is
equipped with the occupation
classification system, never
install a child restraint system in
the front passenger's seat. A
deploying air bag can forcefully
strike a child resulting in serious
injuries or death. Any child under
13 years of age should ride in the
rear seat. Children too large for
child restraints should use the
available lap/shoulder belts. No
matter what type of crash, chil-
dren of all ages are safer when
restrained in the rear seat.
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF" indicator is illuminated
when the front passenger's seat
is occupied by an adult and
he/she sits properly (sitting
upright with the seatback in an
upright position, centered on the
seat cushion with their seat belt
on, legs comfortably extended
and their feet on the floor), have
that person sit in the rear seat.
(Continued)

Features of your vehicle92 3The side impact air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side-impact
collisions, depending on the crash sever-
ity, angle, speed and point of impact. The
side impact air bags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact situations.
(Continued)
Do not install any accessories on
the side or near the side impact
air bag.
Do not place any objects over the
air bag or between the air bag and
yourself.
Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag, etc.) between the
front door and the front seat.
Such objects may become dan-
gerous projectiles and cause
injury if the supplemental side
impact air bag inflates.
To prevent unexpected deploy-
ment of the side impact air bag
that may result in personal injury,
avoid impact to the side impact
sensor when the ignition key is
on.
WARNING
The side impact air bag is supple-
mental to the driver's and the pas-
senger's seat belt systems and is
not a substitute for them.
Therefore your seat belts must be
worn at all times while the vehicle
is in motion. The air bags deploy
only in certain side impact condi-
tions severe enough to cause sig-
nificant injury to the vehicle occu-
pants.
For best protection from the side
impact air bag system and to
avoid being injured by the deploy-
ing side impact air bag, both front
seat occupants should sit in an
upright position with the seat belt
properly fastened. The driver's
hands should be placed on the
steering wheel at the 9:00 and
3:00 positions. The passenger's
arms and hands should be placed
on their laps.
Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
Use of seat covers could reduce
or prevent the effectiveness of
the system.
