WARNING:
o Verify the shoulder belt anchor is
locked into position at the appropri-
ate height. Never position the shoul-
der belt across your neck or face.
Improperly positioned seat belts can
cause serious injuries in an acci-
dent.
o Failure to replace seat belts after an

B190A03A-AATSEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and
Rear Seat 3-Point System with Com-
bination Locking Retractor :
To Fasten Your BeltCombination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat outboard and
center positions to help accommodate
the installation of child restraint systems.
Hyundai strongly recommends that chil-
dren 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 re-
tractor seat belt and an automatic locking
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 (Emer-
gency Locking Retractor Type). It auto-
matically 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. *1) Warning pattern repeats 11 times with
an interval of 24 seconds. If the driver's
seat belt is buckled, the light will stop
within 6 seconds and chime will stop
immediately.
*2) The light will stop within 6 seconds
and chime will stop immediately.

B200A01A-AATAdjusting Your Seat Belt
WARNING:You should place the lap belt portion as
low as possible and snugly across your
hips, not on your waist. If the lap belt is
located too high on your waist, it may
increase the chance of injury in the event
of a collision. Both arms should not be
under or over the belt. Rather, one should
be over and the other under, as shown in
the illustration.
Never wear the seat belt under the arm
nearest the door.
B200A01NF
o Children age 12 and younger must
always be properly restrained in the
rear seat. Never allow children to
ride in the front passenger seat. If a
child over 13 must be seated in the
front seat, he/she must be properly
belted and the seat should be moved
as far back as possible.
o 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 posi-
tioned midway over your shoulder
across your collarbone.
o 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.
o Be careful not to damage the belt
webbing or hardware. If the belt web-
bing or hardware is damaged, re-
place it. When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of a
child restraint system, the seat belt opera-
tion changes to allow the belt to retract,
but not to extend (Automatic Locking
Retractor Type). See page 1-38.
NOTE:Although the combination retractor pro-
vides 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, al-
low the unbuckled seat belt to fully re-
tract.
!
WARNING:
o For maximum restraint system pro-
tection, seat belts must always be
used whenever the car is moving.
o Seat belts are most effective when
seatbacks are in the upright posi-
tion.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMB230A05A-AATChildren 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 statis-
tics provided by the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
children are safer when properly re-
strained in the rear seats than in the front
seat. Larger children not in a child re-
straint should use one of the seat belts
provided.
All 50 states have child restraint laws.
You should be aware of the specific re-
quirements in your state. Child and/or
infant safety seats must be properly placed
and installed in the rear seat. You must
use a commercially available child re-
straint system that meets the requirements
of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dards (FMVSS).
Child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts
or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder
belt, or by a LATCH system.
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured.

1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI32
!
o 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 inte-
rior.
o Never put a seat belt over yourself
and a child. During a crash, the belt
could press deep into the child caus-
ing serious internal injuries.
o 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 chil-
dren inside. Even very young chil-
dren may inadvertently cause the
vehicle to move, entangle them-
selves in the windows, or lock them-
selves or others inside the vehicle.
o Never allow two children, or any two
persons, to use the same seat belt.
o Children often squirm and reposition
themselves improperly. Never let a
child ride with the shoulder belt un-
der their arm or behind their back.
Always properly position and secure
children in rear seat.
WARNING:
o When the child restraint system is
not in use, store it in the trunk or
fasten it with a safety belt so that it
will not be thrown forward in case of
a sudden stop or an accident.
o Children may be seriously injured or
killed by an inflating airbag. All chil-
dren, even those too large for child
restraints, must ride in the rear seat.
To reduce the chance or serious or fatal
injuries:
o 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 inflat-
ing airbag resulting in serious or fa-
tal injuries.
o Always follow the instructions for
installation and use of the child re-
straint maker.
o Always make sure the child seat is
secured properly in the car and your
child is securely restrained in the
child seat.
!
WARNING:
WARNING:
o 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 airbag 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.
o Since a safety belt or child restraint
system can become very hot if it is
left in a closed vehicle, be sure to
check the seat cover and buckles
before placing a child there.
!
For small children and babies, a child
seat or infant seat must be used. Before
buying a particular child restraint system,
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:
o If the retractor is not in the Auto-
matic Locking mode, the child re-
straint can move when your vehicle
turns or stops suddenly. A child can
be seriously injured or killed if the
child restraint is not properly an-
chored to the car, including setting
the retractor to the Automatic Lock-
ing mode.
o Do not install any child restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger seat.
Should an accident occur and cause
the passenger side airbag to deploy,
it could severely injure or kill an
infant or child seated in an infant or
child seat. Therefore, only use a child
restraint system in the rear seat of
your vehicle.
o Before installing a Child Restraint
System to vehicles fitted with Curtain
Airbags, always refer to safety no-
tices for Curtain Airbag systems in
this manual. Whenever installing child
restraints, use only approved devices
and refer to the "Child Restraint Sys-
tem" section to ensure correct instal-
lation and that occupant protection is
maximized. If the retractor is in the automatic locking
mode, the belt will be locked. After instal-
lation of the child restraint system, try to
move it in all directions to be sure the
child restraint system is securely installed.
If you need to tighten the belt, pull more
webbing toward the retractor. When you
unbuckle the seat belt and allow it to
retract, the retractor will automatically
revert back to its normal seated passen-
ger emergency locking usage condition.
NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint
system, read the instructions sup-
plied by the child restraint system
manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as
described, have the system checked
immediately by your authorized
Hyundai dealer.
To install a child restraint system in the
outboard rear seats, extend the shoulder/
lap belt entirely from its retractor until a
"click" is felt. This will engage the seat belt
retractor automatic locking feature, which
allows the seat belt to retract but not
extend. Install the child restraint system,
buckle the seat belt and allow the seat
belt to take up any slack. Make sure that
the lap portion of the belt is tight around
the child restraint system and the shoul-
der portion of the belt is positioned so that
it cannot interfere with the child's head or
neck. Also, double check to be sure that
the retractor has engaged the automatic
locking feature by trying to extend web-
bing out of the retractor.B230G02MC-AATChild Restraint System Installation
