down to make sure that it has locked into
position.
WARNING:
o The height adjuster must be in the
locked position when the vehicle is
moving.
o Misadjustment of height of the shoul-
der belt could reduce the effective-
ness of the seat belt in a crash.
B180A01TG-AATSEAT BELT-Driver's 3-Point System
with Emergency Locking RetractorTo 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.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the
proper length only after the lap belt portion
is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly
around your hips. If you lean forward in a
slow, easy motion, the belt will extend and
let you move around. If there is a sudden
stop or impact, the belt will lock into posi-
tion. It will also lock if you try to lean forward
too quickly.

NOTE:If the driver's seat belt is not fastened
when the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position, the seat belt warning light
will blink and the warning chime will sound
for approximately six seconds to re-
mind the driver to fasten the driver's
seat belt. See page 1-70.

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 Retrac-
tor Type). See page 1-39.NOTE:o Although the combination retractor
provides the same level of protection
for seated passengers in either emer-
gency or automatic locking modes, it
is recommended that seated passen-
gers use the emergency locking fea-
ture for improved convenience. The
automatic locking function is intended
to facilitate child restraint installa-
tion. To convert from the automatic
locking feature to the emergency lock-
ing operation mode, allow the unbuck-
led seat belt to fully retract.
o If the front passenger's seat belt is not
fastened when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, the seat
belt warning light on the center fascia
panel will blink for approximately six
seconds to remind the front passen-
ger to fasten the front passenger's
seat belt. See page 1-70.
WARNING:
o For maximum restraint system pro-
tection, the seat belts must always be
used whenever the car is moving.
o Seat belts are most effective when
seatbacks are in the upright position.
o Children must always be seatbelted
in the rear seats. Never allow children
to ride in the front passenger seat.
o The shoulder belt should be positioned
midway over the shoulder nearest
the door for the most effective protec-
tion. Never wear the seat belt under
the arm nearest the door. Wearing the
belt under the arm nearest the door
could cause serious or fatal injuries in
an accident.
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, replace
it.

B190A01TG-AATSEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and
Rear Seat 3-Point System with Com-
bination Locking RetractorCombination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child re-
straint systems. Although a combination
retractor is also installed in the front passen-
ger seat position, Hyundai strongly recom-
mends 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 retrac-
tor 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 (Emergency Locking
Retractor Type). It automatically adjusts to
the proper length only after the lap belt
portion of the seat belt is adjusted manu-
ally so that it fits snugly around your hips.

1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI32
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.

tion.
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMB230A03Y-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 ma-
neuver. According to accident statistics
provided by the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA), children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seats than in the front seat. Larger
children not in a child restraint should use
one of the seat belts provided. All 50 states
have child restraint laws. You should be
aware of the specific requirements in your
state. Child and/or infant safety seats must
be properly placed and installed in the rear
seat. You must use a commercially avail-
able child restraint system that meets the
requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards (FMVSS).
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured. 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.

To install a child restraint system in the rear
seats, extend the shoulder/lap belt entirely
from its retractor until a "click" is felt. This
will engage the seat belt retractor auto-
matic 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 shoulder portion of the belt is posi-
tioned 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 ex-
tend webbing out of the retractor. If the
retractor is in the Automatic Locking mode,
the belt will be locked. After installation of
the child restraint system, try to move it in all
directions to be sure the child restraint sys-
tem 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
passenger Emergency Locking usage con-
dition.

!
WARNING:
o If the retractor is not in the Automatic
Locking mode, the child restraint sys-
tem can move when your vehicle turns
or stops abruptly.
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 re-
straint system in the rear seat of your
vehicle.
o Before installing Child Restraint Sys-
tems 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 occupant protection is maxi-
mized.
NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint
system in any seating position, read
the instructions supplied 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.
B180B01TG-AATPre-tensioner Seat BeltYour Hyundai vehicle is equipped with
driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner
seat belts. The purpose of the pre-tensioner
is to make sure that the seat belts fit tightly
against the occupant's body in certain fron-
tal collisions. The pre-tensioner seat belts
can be activated alone or, where the fron-
tal collision is severe enough, together
with the airbags.

WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-
tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn correctly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the
correct position.
3. Be sure you and your passengers
always wear seat belts and wear them
properly.

!
CAUTION:
Do not put anything near the buckle.
Placing objects near the buckle can ad-
versely affect the buckle pre-tensioner
and may increase the risk of personal
injury in the event of a collision.
If the system senses excessive seat belt
tension on the driver or passenger's seat
belt when the pre-tensioner activates, the
load limiter inside the pre-tensioner will
release some of the pressure on the af-
fected seat belt. When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the
occupant tries to lean forward too quickly,
the seat belt retractor will lock into position.
In certain frontal collisions, the pre-
tensioner will activate and pull the seat belt
into tighter contact against the occupant's
body. The buckle pre-tensioner (which is
installed in the buckle) will also pull the
seat belt into the buckle.

o The SRS can function only when the
ignition key is in the "ON" position. If
the SRS "AIRBAG" warning light does
not illuminate, or continuously re-
mains 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 prop-
erly. If this occurs, have your vehicle
immediately inspected by your
Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or discon-
nect a battery terminal, turn the igni-
tion key to the "LOCK" position and
remove the ignition key. Never re-
move or replace the airbag related
fuse(s) when the ignition key is in the
"ON" position. Failure to heed this
warning will cause the SRS "AIRBAG"
warning light to illuminate. o When installing a container of liquid
air freshener inside the vehicle, do
not place it near the instrument clus-
ter nor on the instrument panel sur-
face. If there is any leakage from the
air freshener onto these areas (in-
strument cluster, instrument panel or
air ventilator), it may damage these
parts. If the liquid from the air fresh-
ener does leak onto these areas, wash
them with water immediately.
WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may
be a loud noise and fine dust will be
released throughout the vehicle.
These conditions are normal and are
not hazardous. However, the fine dust
generated during airbag deployment
may cause skin irritation. Wash all
exposed skin areas thoroughly with
lukewarm water and a mild soap after
an accident in which the airbags were
deployed.

This will allow the system to detect the
person and to enable the passenger
airbag. If the "PASS AIR BAG OFF"
indicator is still on, turn the ignition
key to "LOCK" and ask the passenger
to sit properly and restart the engine
again. If the "PASS AIR BAG OFF"
indicator is still on, ask the passenger
to move to the rear seat.
