oEach seat belt is designed to restrain
one occupant. If more than one person
uses the same seat belt, they could be
seriously injured or killed in a collision.
oDo not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiming to improve occu-
pant comfort or reposition the seat belt can
reduce the protection provided by the seat
belt and increase the chance of serious
injury in a crash.
oPassengers should not place hard or
sharp objects between themselves and
the airbags. Carrying hard or sharp ob-
jects on your lap or in your mouth can result
in injuries if an airbag inflates.
oKeep occupants away from the airbag
covers. All occupants should sit upright,
fully back in their seats with their seat belts
on and their feet on the floor. If occupants
are too close to the airbag covers, they
could be injured if the airbags inflate.
oDo not attach or place objects on or
near the airbag covers. Any object at-
tached to or placed on the front or side
impact airbag covers could interfere with
the proper operation of the airbags.
oDo not modify the front seats. Modifica-
tion of the front seats could interfere with
the operation of the supplemental restraint
system sensing components or side im-
pact airbags.
B240D01JM-AATAdditional Safety PrecautionsoNever let passengers ride in the cargo
area (trunk) or on top of a folded-down
back seat. All occupants should sit upright,
fully back in their seats with their seat belts
on and their feet on the floor.
oPassengers should not move out of or
change seats while the vehicle is mov-
ing. A passenger who is not wearing a seat
belt during a crash or emergency stop can
be thrown against the inside of the vehicle,
against other occupants, or out of the
vehicle. o If you sell your vehicle, be sure to
inform the new owner of these impor-
tant points and make certain that this
manual is transferred to the new owner.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked
carpeting or water on the floor, you
shouldn't try to start the engine; have
the car towed to an authorized Hyundai
dealer.oDo not place items under the front
seats. Placing items under the front seats
could interfere with the operation of the
supplemental restraint system sensing
components and wiring harnesses.
oNever hold an infant or child on your
lap. The infant or child could be seriously
injured or killed in the event of a crash. All
infants and children should be properly
restrained in appropriate child safety seats
or seat belts in the rear seat.
WARNING:
o Sitting improperly or out of position
can result in serious injury or death in
a crash.
o Always sit upright, fully back in the
seat, with your seat belt on, and your
feet on the floor.Adding Equipment to or Modifying Your
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle.If you modify your vehicle by changing your
vehicle's frame, bumper system, front end or
side sheet metal or ride height, this may affect
the operation of your vehicle's airbag system.

valve cap and check the air pressure.
D080A01A-AAT
CAUTION:
Your car can be damaged if towed incor-
rectly!
HLC4012
If your car has to be towed, it should be done by
your Hyundai dealer or a commercial tow truck
service. This will help assure that your car is not
damaged in towing. Also, professionals are gen-
erally aware of state and local laws governing
towing. In any case, rather than risk damage to
your car, it is suggested that you show this
information to the tow truck operator. Be sure
that a safety chain system is used and that all
state and local laws are observed.

o OK FOR AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL
TRANSAXLE EQUIPPED VEHICLE!
After changing wheels, have a techni-
cian tighten the wheel nuts to their
proper torque as soon as possible.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
Steel wheel & aluminium alloy wheel:
65-80 lb.ft (900-1,100 kg.cm)If the pressure is lower than recom-
mended, drive slowly to the nearest
service station and inflate to the cor-
rect pressure. If it is too high, adjust
it until it is correct. Always reinstall
the valve cap after checking or ad-
justing tire pressure. If the cap is not
replaced, air may leak from the tire. If
you lose a valve cap, buy another
and install it as soon as possible.
After you have changed wheels, al-
ways secure the flat tire in its place in
the trunk and return the jack and tools
to their proper storage locations.
