WARNING:o Before folding the seatback, place the
rear seat belt buckles in the buckle clips
on the seatback. This will prevent the
seat belt buckles from becoming cov-
ered by the seat cushion when it is re-
turned to the seating position.
o When you return the folded down seat
back to its upright position, make sure
the seat belts are in position to be acces-
sible and to function properly.
o WARNING LABEL: When returning the
seat cushion to the seating position, place
the seat belt buckles on top of the cush-
ion.
o The purpose of the fold down rear seat
back and the fold forward rear seat cush-
ion is to increase cargo space. Do not
allow passengers to sit in the cargo area
while the car is moving. This is not a
proper seating position and no seat belts
are available for use when the seat back
is folded down. Passengers who are not
properly seated and wearing seat belts
could sustain serious injuries or death in
case of an accident or a sudden stop.
o Objects should not extend higher than
the top of the front seatbacks. This could
allow cargo to slide forward and cause
injury or damage during sudden stops.
o When you return the folded down seat
back to its upright position, always be
sure to place the rear seat belt buckles
on the seat cushion below the seatback.o When you return the folded down
seatback to its upright position, always
be sure to install the headrests in their
proper positions. Headrests are impor-
tant to the safety of occupants in a rear
collision. If the headrests are not in-
stalled in their proper position, serious
injury or death could result if a rear end
collision occurs.
B150B03Y-AATInfant or Small ChildAll 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. Information about the use of these
restraints begins on page 1-16.
WARNING:Every person in your vehicle needs to be
properly restrained at all times, including
infants and children. In a collision, an unre-
strained child can become a "missile" in-
side the car. The force required to hold a
child on your lap could be so great that you
could not hold the child. Any child riding in
the vehicle should always be in a proper
restraint in the rear seat of the vehicle.
NOTE:Small children are best protected from in-
jury in an accident when properly restrained
in the rear seat by a child restraint system
that meets the requirements of the Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Before buy-
ing any child restraint system, make sure
that it has a label certifying that it meets
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213. The re-
straint must be appropriate for your child's
height and weight. Check the label on the
child restraint for this information. See page
1-16.

B150C03A-AATLarger ChildrenChildren who are too large for child restraint
systems should always occupy the rear seat
and use the available lap/shoulder belts. The
lap portion should be fastened snug on the hips
and as low as possible. Check belt fit periodi-
cally. A child's squirming could put the belt out
of position. Children are afforded the most
safety in the event of an accident when they are
restrained by a proper restraint system in the
rear seat. If a larger child (over age 13) must
be seated in the front seat, the child should be
securely restrained by the available lap/shoul-
der belt and the seat should be placed in the
rearmost position. Children under the age of 13
should be restrained securely in the rear seat.
Never place a child under the age of 13 in the
front seat. NEVER place a rear facing child seat
in the front seat of a vehicle.

Combination retractor type seat belts are in-
stalled in the rear seat outboard positions to
help accommodate the installation of child re-
straint systems. Although a combination re-
tractor is also installed in the front passenger
seat position, Hyundai strongly recommends
that children always be seated in the
rear seat rear seatrear seat rear seat
rear seat.
NEVER place any infant restraint system in the
front seat of the vehicle.
This type of seat belt combines the features of
both an emergency locking retractor 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 intothe buckle. When not securing a child restraint,
the seat belt operates in the same way as the
driver's seat belt (Emergency Locking Retrac-
tor Type). It automatically 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. When the seat belt is fully
extended from the retractor to allow the instal-
lation of a child restraint system, the seat belt
operation changes to allow the belt to retract,
but not to extend. (Automatic Locking Retractor
Type). See page 1-18.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMCHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMChildren 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, sud-
den stop or sudden maneuver. 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 re-
quirements 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
and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all the
instructions provided by the manufacturer when
installing the child restraint system.

B230B01E-AATUsing a Child Restraint System
For small children and babies, the use of a child
seat or infant seat is strongly recommended
and may be required in your state. This child
seat or infant seat should be of appropriate size
for the child and should be installed in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's instructions. It is
further recommended that the seat be placed in
the vehicle's rear seat since this can make an
important contribution to safety. Your vehicle is
provided with three child restraint hook holders
for installing the child seat or infant seat.

If you need to tighten the belt, pull more web-
bing toward the retractor. When you unbuckle

condition.
NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint sys-
tem in any seating position, read the
instructions supplied by the child re-
straint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as de-
scribed, have the system checked imme-
diately by your authorized Hyundai deal-
er.
WARNING:o If the retractor is not in the Automatic
Locking mode, the child restraint system
can move when your vehicle turns or
stops abruptly.
o Do not install any child restraint system
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.

from its retractor until a "click" is felt. This will
engage the seat belt retractor automatic lock-
ing feature, which allows the seat belt to retract
but not extend. Install the child restraint sys-
tem, 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 positioned so that it can not 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
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

WARNING:o Do not install a child safety seat at the
center of the rear seat using the vehicle's
ISOFIX anchors. The ISOFIX anchors are
only provided for the left and right out-
board rear seating positions. Do not mis-
use the ISOFIX anchors by attempting to
attach a child sefety seat in the middle of
the rear seat position to the ISOFIX an-
chors. In a crash, the child seat ISOFIX
attachments may not be strong enough
to secure the child restraint seat prop-
erly in the center of the rear seat and may
break, causing serious injury or death.
o Do not mount more than one child re-
straint to a single tether or to a child
restraint lower anchorage point. The im-
proper increased load may cause the
anchorage points or tether anchor to
break, causing serious injury or death.
o Attach the ISOFIX or ISOFIX-compatible
child seat only to the appropriate loca-
tions shown.
o Always follow the installation and use
instructions provided by the manufac-
turer of the child restraint.
B230D03E-AATSecuring the Child Restraint Seat with
the "ISOFIX" System
B230F01E
Some child seat manufacturers make safety
seats that are labeled as ISOFIX or ISOFIX-
compatible child seats. These seats include
two rigid or webbing mounted attachments that
connect to two ISOFIX anchors at specific
seating positions in your vehicle. This type of
child seat eliminates the need to use seat belts
to attach the child seat for forward-facing child
seats.
ISOFIX anchors have been provided in your
vehicle. The ISOFIX anchors are located in the
left and right outboard rear seating positions.
Their locations are shown in the illustration.
There is no ISOFIX anchor provided for the
center rear seating position.
The ISOFIX anchors are located between the
seatback and the seat cushion of the rear seat
left and right outboard seating positions.
Follow the child seat manufacturer's instruc-
tions to properly install safety seats with ISOFIX
or ISOFIX-compatible attachments.
Once you have installed the ISOFIX child re-
straint seat, assure that the seat is properly
attached to the ISOFIX and tether anchors.
Also, test the safety seat before you place the
child in it. Tilt the seat from side to side. Also try
to tug the seat forward. Check to see if the
anchors hold the seat in place.
WARNING:If the child restraint seat is not anchored
properly, the risk of a child being seriously
injured or killed in a collision greatly in-
creases.

B990B03Y-GATSide Impact Airbag (If Installed)
B990B02Y
Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impact
airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the
airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or
the front passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt alone. The
side impact airbags are designed to deploy only
during certain side impact collisions, depend-
ing on the crash severity, angle, speed and
point of impact. The side impact airbag are not
designed to deploy in all side impact situations.

B990A04Y-AATPASSENGER PRESENCE DETECTIONThe passenger presence detection system de-
tects the presence of a passenger in the right
front seat. If no passenger is recognized on the
front passenger seat, the deployment of the
front passenger and/or side airbag and seat
belt pretensioner will be prevented.
This system is designed to prevent the replace-
ment of airbag components that deploy need-
lessly in an accident.
NOTE:Luggage or other cargo heavier than 33 lbs
should not be placed on the passenger front
seat. This can allow the deployment of the
front passenger and/or side air bag in the
case of an accident.
WARNING:The Passenger Presence Detection system
is not intended to prevent airbag deploy-
ment while a child is in the front passenger's
seat. It is intended only as a means to
reduce unnecessary collision damage re-
pair expense by preventing airbag and seat
belt pretensioner deployment when the right
front passenger seat is unoccupied. De-
ployment is still possible if only a few pounds
are placed upon the seat. Therefore, children
must not be transported in the front seat. All
children must be seated in the rear seat and
properly restrained with the vehicle's re-
straint system or a child restraint system
appropriate for the child's size and weight.

vent the effectiveness of the system.
o Do not install any accessories on the
side or near the side impact airbag.
o Do not use excessive force on the side of
the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag
or between the airbag and yourself.o Do not place any objects (an umbrella,
bag, etc.) between the front door and the
front seat. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause injury if
the supplemental side impact air bag
inflates.
