1- 8 WARNING: Sitting in a reclined position or lying downwhen your vehicle is in motion can be dan-gerous. Even if you buckle up, your seat beltscan't do their job when you're reclined.The shoulder belt can't do its job because itwon't be against your body. Instead, it will bein front of you. In a crash you could go into itwith great force, receiving serious neck orother injuries.The lap belt can't do its job either. In a crashthe belt could go up over your abdomen. Thebelt forces would be applied there, not at yourpelvic bones.This could cause serious internal injuries.For proper protection when the vehicle is inmotion, have the seatback upright. Then sitwell back in the seat and wear your seat beltproperly. B160B01A-AAT Periodic Inspection It is recommended that all seat belts be inspected periodically for wear or damage of any kind.Parts of the system that are damaged should bereplaced as soon as possible.
B160A01S-GAT CARE OF SEAT BELTS Seat belt systems should never be disassembled or modified. In addition, care should be taken toassure that seat belts and belt hardware are notdamaged by seat hinges, doors or other abuse.
B150E01A-AAT Injured Person A seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. When this is neces-sary, you should consult a physician for recom-mendations. B150F01A-AAT One Person Per Belt Two people (including children) should never attempt to use a single seat belt. This couldincrease the severity of injuries in case of anaccident. B150G01A-AAT Do Not Lie Down To reduce the chance of injuries in the event of an accident, and to achieve maximum effective-ness of the restraint system, all passengersshould be sitting up and the front seats should bein an upright position when the car is moving. Aseat belt cannot operate properly if the person islying down in the rear seat or if the front seat is ina reclined position.
B150D01A-AAT Pregnant WomenThe use of a seat belt is recommended for pregnant women to lessen the chance of injury inan accident. When a seat belt is used, the lap beltportion should be placed as low and snugly aspossible on the hips, not across the abdomen.For specific recommendations, consult a physi-cian.
The possibility of injury or the severity of injury in
an accident will be decreased if this elementarysafety precaution is observed. In addition, thefollowing recommendations are made: B150B01A-GAT Infant or Small Child Some countries require the use of child restraint systems for infants and small children. Whetherthis is required by law or not, it is stronglyrecommended that a child restraint seat or infantrestraint system be used for infants or smallchildren weighing less than 18 kilograms (40pounds). B150C01A-AAT Larger Children Children who are too large for child restraint systems should occupy the
rear seat and use
the available lap/shoulder belts. The lap portionshould be fastened snug on the hips and as lowas possible. Check belt fit periodically. A child'ssquirming could move the belt out of position.If the larger child (over age 13) is in the front seat,the child should be securely restrained by theseat belt. Under no circumstances should thechild be allowed to stand or kneel on the seat.Children are afforded the most safety in the eventof an accident when they are restrained by aproper restraint system in the rear seat. Never
allow children to ride in the front passenger seat.

B230A02P-GAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (If installed) Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be restrained to minimizethe risk of injury in an accident, sudden stop orsudden maneuver. According to accident statis-tics, children are safer when properly restrainedin the rear seats than in the front seat. Largerchildren should use one of the seat belts pro-vided.You are required by law to use safety restraintsfor children. If small children ride in your vehicleyou must put them in a child restraint system(safety seat).Children could be injured in a crash if theirrestraints are not properly secured. For smallchildren and babies, a child seat or infant seatmust be used. Before buying a particular childrestraint system, make sure it fits your car seatand seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all theinstructions provided by the manufacturer wheninstalling the child restraint system. WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in
the rear seat. Never install a child or infantseat on the front passenger's seat.Should an accident occur and cause thepassenger side airbag to deploy, it couldseverely injure or kill an infant or childseated in an infant or child seat. Thus, onlyuse a child restraint in the rear seat of yourvehicle.
B220C01A-AAT To Release the Seat Belt When you want to release the seat belt, press the button in the locking buckle. WARNING: The center lap belt latching mechanism isdifferent from those for the rear seat shoul-der belts. When fastening the rear seat shoul-der belts or the center lap belt, make surethey are inserted into the correct buckle toobtain maximum protection from the seatbelt system and assure proper operation.
B220B01A-AAT Adjusting Your Seat Belt
SSA1090T
With a 2-point static type seat belt, the length must be adjusted manually so it fits snugly aroundyour body. Fasten the belt and pull on the looseend to tighten. The belt should be placed as lowas possible on your hips, not on your waist. If thebelt is too high, it could increase the possibility ofyour being injured in an accident. Correct

1- 12 After installation of the child restraint system, try to move it in all directions to be sure the childrestraint system is securely installed.If you need to tighten the belt, pull more webbingtoward the retractor. When you unbuckle theseat belt and allow it to retract, the retractor willautomatically revert back to its normal seatedpassenger emergency locking usage condition. NOTE:
o Before installing the child restraint sys-
tem, read the instructions supplied by thechild restraint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as de- scribed, have the system checked imme-diately by your authorized Hyundai dealer.
WARNING:Do not install any child restraint system in thefront passenger seat. Should an accidentoccur and cause the passenger side airbagto deploy, it could severely injure or kill aninfant or child seated in an infant or childseat. Therefore, only use a child restraintsystem in the rear seat of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child restraint sys-
tem can become very hot if it is left in aclosed vehicle, be sure to check the seatcover and buckles before placing a childthere.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, fasten it with a safety belt so that itwill not be thrown forward in the case of asudden stop or an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a child restraint should sit in the rear seat and berestrained with the available lap/shoulderbelts. Never allow children to ride in thefront passenger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt portion of the outboard lap/shoulder beltis positioned midway over the shoulder,never across the neck. Moving the childcloser to the center of the vehicle may helpprovide a good shoulder belt fit. The lapbelt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or thecenter seat lap belt must always be posi-tioned as low as possible on the child'ships and as snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, we recommend the use of an ap-proved booster seat in the rear seat inorder to raise the child's seating height sothat the seat belt will properly fit the child.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or child safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback; it may not provide adequate security in an acci-dent.
o Never allow a child to be held in a person's arms while they are in a moving vehicle, asthis could result in serious injury to thechild in the event of an accident or asudden stop. Holding a child in a movingvehicle does not provide the child withany means of protection during an acci-dent, even if the person holding the childis wearing a seat belt.
B230G01A-GAT Installation on Outboard Rear Seats
YR10400B
To install a child restraint system in the outboard rear seats, extend the shoulder/lap belt from itsretractor. Install the child restraint system, bucklethe seat belt and allow the seat belt to take up anyslack. Make sure that the lap portion of the belt istight around the child restraint system and theshoulder portion of the belt is positioned so thatit cannot interfere with the child's head or neck.

B240A03F-AAT SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (If installed)
AS10356A
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of thesystem's presence are the letters "SRS AIRBAG"embossed on the airbag pad cover in the steeringwheel and the passenger's side front panel padabove the glove box. The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in the center of the steeringwheel and the passenger's side front panel abovethe glove box. The purpose of the SRS is toprovide the vehicle's driver and the front passen-ger with additional protection when used to-gether with the seat belt, in case of a frontalimpact. NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS onthe labels provided on the backside of thesun visor and in the glove box.
B180B01X-GAT Pre-tensioner Seat Belt (If installed)Ordinarily the pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as E.L.R (Emergency LockingRetractor) type (When vehicles stop suddenly,
the belt will lock into the position. It will alsolock if you try to lean forward too quickly.) .
However, when vehicles crash, the retractorrewinds the belt webbing. This will restrain thepassenger movement quickly and also reducethe slack between passenger and belt webbing. NOTE:
o When the pre-tensioner seat belt is acti- vated, there may be an explosion noise.This noise is normal and is not hazardous.
o Pre-tensioner seat belt is designed to op- erate only when a sufficiently severe im-pact occurs and it will be only operatedonce.
WARNING:If the pre-tensioner seat belt was activated,never attempt to replace it by yourself. It mustbe replaced by an authorized Hyundai Dealer.

o After being parked, check to be sure the parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicator light is out beforedriving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet when the car iswashed. Wet brakes can be dangerous!
Your car will not stop as quickly if the brakesare wet and it may also pull to one side. Todry the brakes, apply the brakes lightly untilthe braking action returns to normal, takingcare to keep the car under control at alltimes. If the braking action does not return tonormal, stop as soon as it is safe to do soand call your Hyundai dealer for assistance.
o Don't coast down hills with the car out of gear. This is extremely hazardous. Keep thecar in gear at all times, use the brakes toslow down, then shift to a lower gear so thatengine braking will help you maintain a safespeed.
o Exercise extreme caution when driving on a
slippery surface. Be especially careful whenbraking, accelerating or shifting gears. On aslippery surface, an abrupt change in ve-hicle speed can cause the drive wheels tolose traction and the vehicle to go out ofcontrol.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good fuel economy and smooth driving. If engine brak-ing is needed in the "D" range or if repeatedupshifting and downshifting between 3rd and4th gear is needed when climbing a gentleslope, it is recommended that the overdriveswitch be turned off. Turn the overdriveswitch back on immediately afterward.

o Never move the gear selector lever from "P"
or "N" to any other position with the acceler- ator pedal depressed.
o Never move the gear selector lever into "P" when the vehicle is in motion.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped be- fore you attempt to shift into "R".
o Never take the car out of gear and coast down a hill. This may be extremely hazard-ous. Always leave the car in gear whenmoving.
o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. Instead,when you are driving down a long hill, slowdown and shift to a lower gear. When you dothis, engine braking will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may not be en-gaged.
o Always use the parking brake. Do not de- pend on placing the transaxle in "P" to keepthe car from moving.
drive switch is turned off, the transaxle will notupshift to the overdrive gear. For normal driv-ing, the selector lever should be left in the "D"position and the overdrive switch turned on.
If you need to accelerate rapidly, press the
accelerator pedal all the way to the floor. Thetransaxle will automatically shift to a lower gear,depending on the vehicle speed and load.

ZB090A1-E SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONSAll vehicle occupants should wear seat belts at
all times. The possibility of injury or the severity of injury in an accident be decreased if this elementary safety precaution is observed. Inaddition, we would like to make the followingrecommendations. ZB090C1-E ChildrenIt is recommended that children occupy the rear seat and wear their seat belts. If the child is inthe front seat, it should be securely restrainedby the seat belt. Under no circumstances shouldthe child be allowed to stand or kneel on theseat. ZB090D1-E Pregnant WomenThe use of a seat belt is recommended for pregnant women. The seat belt should be wornas low and snugly as possible across the hips,not across the abdomen. A qualified MedicalPractioner should be consulted for further infor-mation. ZB090E1-A Injured PersonA seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. When this is nec-essary, you should consult a physician for rec-ommendations. ZB090F1-A One Person Per BeltTwo people (including children) should never attempt to use a single seat belt. This could
increase the severity of injuries in case of anaccident.
ZB090G1-B Do Not Lie DownFor maximum effectiveness, all passengers
should be sitting up and the front seats should be in an upright position. A seat belt cannotoperate properly if the person is lying down inthe rear seat or if the front seat is at or near thefully reclined position.
B160A01S-GAT CARE OF SEAT BELTSSeat belt systems should never be disassem-
bled or modified. In addition, care should be taken to assure that seat belts and belt hard-
ware are not damaged by seat hinges, doors orother abuse.
ZB090I1-A Periodic InspectionIt is recommended that all seat belts be inspect-
ed periodically for wear or damage of any kind. Parts of the system that are damaged shouldbe replaced as soon as possible.
ZB090J1-A Keep Belts Clean and Dry Seat belts should be kept clean and dry. If belts
become dirty, they can be cleaned using a mild soap solution and warm water. Bleach, dye,strong detergents or abrasives should not be
