DOOR LOCKS
B040A01NF-GAT
WARNING:
o Unlocked doors can be danger- ous. Before you drive away (es- pecially if there are children inthe car), be sure that all the doors are securely closed and locked so that the doors cannot be inad-vertently opened from the inside. This helps ensure that doors will not be opened accidentally. Also,when combined with the proper use of seat belts, locking the doors will keep occupants frombeing ejected from the car in case of an accident.
o Before opening the door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
o In case of accident, the door is
unlocked automatically (If In- stalled).
o Do not lock the door using the key
or the transmitter until all passen-gers have left the car because the door is not unlocked by the door lock switch when locking the doorusing the key or the transmitter (If Installed).

Use the center seat belt for the rear to secure the child restraint system as illustrated. After installation of thechild restraint system, rock the child seat back and forth, and side to side to ensure that it is properly secured bythe seat belt. If the child seat moves, readjust the length of the seat belt. Then, ifequipped, insert the child restraint tether strap hook into the child re- straint hook holder and tighten to se-cure the seat. Always refer to the child restraint system manufacturer's rec- ommendation before installing the childrestraint system in your vehicle.

B230F01A-GAT Installation on Center Rear Seats
o Never use an infant carrier or child
safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback; it may not provide ad-equate security in an accident.
o Never allow a child to be held in a
person's arms while they are in amoving vehicle, as this could re- sult in serious injury to the child in the event of an accident or asudden stop. Holding a child in a moving vehicle does not provide the child with any means of pro-tection during an accident, even if the person holding the child is wearing a seat belt.
o If the child restraint seat is not anchored properly, the risk of achild being seriously injured orkilled in a collision greatly in- creases.o Children who are too large to be ina child restraint should sit in the rear seat and be restrained withthe available lap/shoulder belts. Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoul- der belt portion of the outboardlap/shoulder belt is positionedmidway over the shoulder, never across the neck or behind the back. Moving the child closertoward the seat belt buckle may help provide a good shoulder belt fit. The lap belt portion of thelap/shoulder belt or the center seat lap belt must always be po- sitioned as low as possible onthe child's hips and as snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, Hyundai recommendsthe use of an approved booster seat in the rear seat in order toraise the child's seating height so that the seat belt will properly fit the child.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.

B230G01JM-GAT Installation on the Outboard Rear Seats To install a child restraint system on the outboard rear seats, extend the shoul- der/lap belt from its retractor. Buckle the seat belt and allow the seat belt totake up any slack. Make sure that the lap portion of the belt is tight around the child restraint system and the shoulderportion of the belt is positioned so that it cannot interfere with the child's head or neck. After installation of the childrestraint 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 youunbuckle the seat belt and allow it to retract, the retractor will automatically revert back to its normal seated pas-senger emergency locking usage con- dition. NOTE:
o Before installing the child re-
straint system, read the instruc- tions supplied by the child re- straint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as described, have the systemchecked immediately by yourauthorized Hyundai dealer. WARNING:
o Do not install any child restraint system in the front passenger seat. Should an accident occur and cause the passenger's front airbagto 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 Child Restraint
System to vehicles fitted with Cur-tain Airbags, always refer to safety notices for Curtain Airbag sys- tems on this manual. Whenever installing child restraints, use onlyapproved devices and refer to "Child Restraint System" to en- sure correct installation and occu-pant protection is maximized.

Your Hyundai is equipped with dual- diagonal braking systems. This meansyou still have braking on two wheels even if one of the dual systems should fail. With only one of the dual systemsworking, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal pressure are re- quired to stop the car. Also, the car willnot stop in as short a distance with only half of the brake system working. If the brakes fail while you are driving, shiftto a lower gear for additional engine braking and stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so.
