Seats & Safety System3-24
WARNING
ALWAYS properly restrain infants
and small children in a child restraint
appropriate for the child’s height and
weight.
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death to a child and other passengers,
NEVER hold a child in your lap or arms
when the vehicle is moving. The violent
forces created during an accident will
tear the child from your arms and throw
the child against the interior of the
vehicle.
Small children are best protected
from injury 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 buying
any child restraint system, make sure
that it has a label certifying that it meets
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
FMVSS 213. The restraint must be
appropriate for your child’s height and
weight. Check the label on the child
restraint for this information. Refer to the
“Child Restraint Systems” section in this
chapter. Larger children
Children under age 13 and who are too
lar
ge for a booster seat must always
occupy the rear seat and use the
available lap/shoulder belts. A seat belt
should lie across the upper thighs and
be snug across the shoulder and chest
to restrain the child safely. Check belt fit
periodically. Children are afforded the
most safety in the event of an accident
when they are restrained by a proper
restraint system and/or seat belts in the
rear seat. Always have the LATCH system
inspected by your authorized HYUNDAI
dealer after an accident. An accident can
damage the LATCH system and may not
properly secure the child restraint.
If a larger child over age 13 must be
seated in the front seat, the child must
be securely restrained by the available
lap/shoulder belt and the seat should be
placed in the rearmost position.
If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child’s neck or face, try
placing the child closer to the center
of the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck, they need to
be returned to an appropriate booster
seat in the rear seat.
WARNING

[ Always make sure children are
wearing their seat belts and that they
are properly adjusted before driving.

[ NEVER allow the shoulder belt to
contact the child’s neck or face.

[ Do not allow more than one child to
use a single seat belt.

Seats & Safety System3-26
Children Always in the Rear
WARNING
Always properly restrain children in the
rear seats of the vehicle.
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 inflating air bag
resulting in SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH.
Children under age 13 must always
ride in the rear seats and must always
be properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained in the rear
seats than in the front seat. Even with
air bags, children can be seriously
injured or killed. Children too large for
a child restraint must use the seat belts
provided.
All 50 states have child restraint laws
which require children to travel in
approved child restraint devices. The
laws governing the age or height/weight
restrictions at which seat belts can be
used instead of child restraints differs
among states, so you should be aware of
the specific requirements in your state,
and where you are travelling.
Child restraint systems must be properly
placed and installed in the rear seat.
You must use a commercially available
child restraint system that meets the
requirements of the Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS 213).
Child restraint systems are generally
designed to be secured in a vehicle seat
by lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt,
or by a LATCH system in the rear seats of
the vehicle.
Child restraint system (CRS)
Infants and younger children must be
restrained in an appropriate rear-facing
or forward-facing CRS that has first
been properly secured to the rear seat
of the vehicle. Read and comply with
the instructions for installation and use
provided by the manufacturer of the
child restraint.
WARNING
An improperly secured child restraint
can increase the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH in an accident. Always
take the following precautions when
using a child restraint system:

[ NEVER install a child or infant
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat.

[ Always properly secure the child
restraint to a rear seat of the vehicle.

[ Always follow the child restraint
system manufacturer’s instructions
for installation and use.

[ Always properly restrain your child in
the child restraint.

[ If the vehicle head restraint prevents
proper installation of a child seat
(as described in the child restraint
system manual), the head restraint of
the respective seating position shall
be readjusted or entirely removed.

[ Do not use an infant carrier or a
child safety seat that “hooks” over
a seatback, it may not provide
adequate protection in an accident.

[ After an accident, have a HYUNDAI
dealer check the child restraint
system, seat belts, tether anchors
and lower anchors.

Selecting a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
When selecting a CRS for your child,
always:

[Make sure the CRS has a label
certifying that it meets applicable
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards (FMVSS 213).

[ Select a child restraint based on
your child’s height and weight. The
required label or the instructions for
use typically provide this information.

[ Select a child restraint that fits the
vehicle seating position where it will
be used.

[ Read and comply with the warnings
and instructions for installation and
use provided with the child restraint
system.
Child restraint system types
There are three main types of child
restraint systems: rear-facing seats,
forward-facing seats, and booster seats.
They are classified according to the
child’s age, height and weight.
Rear-facing child seats
WARNING
NEVER install a child or infant restraint
in the front passenger’s seat.
Placing a rear-facing child restraint in
the front seat can result in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH if the child restraint is
struck by an inflating air bag.
OCN7030029
A rear-facing child seat provides restraint
with the seating surface against the back
of the child. The harness system holds
the child in place, and in an accident,
acts to keep the child positioned in the
seat and reduce the stress to the neck
and spinal cord.
All children under age one must always
ride in a rear-facing infant child restraint.
Convertible and 3-in-1 child seats
typically have higher height and weight
limits for the rear-facing position,
allowing you to keep your child rear-
facing for a longer period of time.
Continue to use a rear-facing child seat
for as long as your child will fit within the
height and weight limits allowed by the
child seat manufacturer. It’s the best way
to keep them safe. Once your child has
outgrown the rear-facing child restraint,
your child is ready for a forward-facing
child restraint with a harness.

Seats & Safety System3-28
OCN7030030
Forward-facing child restraints
A forward-facing child seat provides
r
estraint for the child’s body with a
harness. Keep children in a forward-
facing child seat with a harness until
they reach the top height or weight
limit allowed by your child restraint’s
manufacturer.
Once your child outgrows the forward-
facing child restraint, your child is ready
for a booster seat.
Booster seats
A booster seat is a restraint designed to
impr
ove the fit of the vehicle’s seat belt
system. A booster seat positions the seat
belt so that it fits properly over the lap of
your child.
Keep your child in a booster seat until
they are big enough to sit in the seat
without a booster and still have the
seat belt fit properly. For a seat belt
to fit properly, the lap belt must lie
snugly across the upper thighs, not the
stomach. The shoulder belt should lie
snug across the shoulder and chest and
not across the neck or face. Children
under age 13 must always ride in the
rear seats and must always be properly
restrained to minimize the risk of injury.
Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
WARNING
Before installing your child restraint
system always:

[ Read and follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the
child restraint.

[ Read and follow the instructions
regarding child restraint systems in
this manual.
Failure to follow all warnings and
instructions could increase the risk of
the SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH if an
accident occurs.
WARNING
If the vehicle head restraint prevents
proper installation of a child seat as
described in the child seat system
manual, the head restraint of the
respective seating position shall be
readjusted or entirely removed.

03
3-31
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using the LATCH system:

[Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your child
restraint system.

[ To prevent the child from reaching
and taking hold of unretracted
seat belts, buckle all unused rear
seat belts and retract the seat belt
webbing behind the child. Children
can be strangled if a shoulder belt
becomes wrapped around their neck
and the seat belt tightens.

[ NEVER attach more than one
child restraint to a single anchor.
This could cause the anchor or
attachment to come loose or break.

[ Always have the LATCH system
inspected by your authorized
HYUNDAI dealer after an accident.
An accident can damage the LATCH
system and may not properly secure
the child restraint.
NOTICE
The recommended weight for the
LATCH system is under 65 lb (30 kg).
How to determine an appropriate child
restraint weight:
Child weight + Child restraint weight <
65 lb (30kg)
Securing a child restraint seat with
“Tether Anchor” system
OCN7030032
First secure the child restraint with
the LATCH lower anchors or the seat
belt. If the child restraint manufacturer
recommends that the top tether strap
be attached, attach and tighten the
top tether strap to the top tether strap
anchor.
Child restraint hook holders are located
on the rear of the seatbacks.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
installing the tether strap:

[Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your child
restraint system.

[ NEVER attach more than one child
restraint to a single tether anchor.
This could cause the anchor or
attachment to come loose or break.

[ Do not attach the tether strap to
anything other than the correct
tether anchor. It may not work
properly if attached to something
else.

[ Do not use the tether anchors for
adult seat belts or harnesses, or for
attaching other items or equipment
to the vehicle.

For example, if a child restraint of the
type specified in the regulations is on the
seat, the occupant classification sensor
can detect it and cause the air bag to
turn OFF.
Front passenger seat adult occupants
who are properly seated and wearing the
seat belt properly, should not cause the
passenger air bag to be automatically
turned OFF. For small adults it may be
turned OFF, however, if the occupant
does not sit in the seat properly (for
example, by not sitting upright, by sitting
on the edge of the seat, or by otherwise
being out of position), this could cause
the sensor to turn the air bag OFF.
You will find the “PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF” indicator on the overhead console.
This system detects the conditions 1-4
in the following table and activates or
deactivates the front passenger air bag
based on these conditions.
Always be sure that you and all vehicle
occupants are seated properly and
wearing the seat belt properly for the
most effective protection by the air bag
and the seat belt.
Never install a Child Restraint System in
the front passenger’s seat. If you should
install a CRS (Child Restraint System)
inevitably, use a forward-facing CRS with
3-point ALR safety seat belt and adjust
the front passenger’s seat as far to the
rear as possible. If the PASSENGER AIR
BAG “OFF” indicator is OFF after a CRS
(Child Restraint System) is equipped,
the front passenger’s airbag is operating
so you should install the CRS in the rear
seats of the vehicle immediately.The OCS may not function properly if the
passenger takes actions which can affect
the classification system. These include:

[
Failing to sit in an upright position.

[ Leaning against the door or center
console.

[ Sitting towards the sides of the front
of the seat.

[ Putting their legs on the dashboard or
resting them on other locations which
reduce the passenger weight on the
front seat.

[ Wearing the seat belt improperly.

[ Reclining the seatback.

[ Wearing a thick cloth like ski wear or
hip protection wear.

[ Putting an additional thick cushion on
the seat.

[ Putting electrical devices (for
example, notebook, satellite radio) on
the seat with inverter charging.

WARNING
Riding in an improper position or placing weight on the front passenger’s seat when
it is unoccupied by a passenger adversely affects the OCS. To reduce the risk of
serious injury or death:
OVQ036013NB

Driving Your Vehicle6-62
Information

[ Install tire chains on both left and right
front tires. It should be noted that
installing tire chains on the tires will
provide a greater driving force, but will
not prevent side skids.

[ Do not install studded tires without
first checking local, state and municipal
regulations for possible restrictions
against their use.
Chain installation
When installing tire chains, follow the
manuf
acturer’s instructions and mount
them as tightly possible. Drive slowly
(less than 20 mph (30 km/h)) with
chains installed. If you hear the chains
contacting the body or chassis, stop and
tighten them. If they still make contact,
slow down until the noise stops. Remove
the tire chains as soon as you begin
driving on cleared roads.
When mounting snow chains, park the
vehicle on level ground away from traffic.
Turn on the vehicle Hazard Warning
Flasher and place a triangular emergency
warning device behind the vehicle (if
available). Always place the vehicle in P
(Park), apply the parking brake and turn
off the engine before installing snow
chains.
NOTICE
When using tire chains:

[ Wrong size chains or improperly
installed chains can damage your
vehicle's brake lines, suspension,
body and wheels.

[ Use SAE "S" class or wire chains.

[ If you hear noise caused by chains
contacting the body, retighten the
chain to prevent contact with the
vehicle body.

[ To prevent body damage, retighten
the chains after driving 0.3~0.6 miles
(0.5~1.0 km).

[ Do not use tire chains on vehicles
equipped with aluminum wheels. If
unavoidable, use a wire type chain.

[ Use wire chains less than 0.59 inch
(15mm) wide to prevent damage to
the chain’s connection.
Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol
coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high
quality ethylene glycol coolant in the
cooling system. It is the only type of
coolant that should be used because it
helps prevent corrosion in the cooling
system, lubricates the water pump and
prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or
replenish your coolant in accordance
with the maintenance schedule in
chapter 8. Before winter, have your
coolant tested to assure that its freezing
point is sufficient for the temperatures
anticipated during the winter.
Change to "winter weight" oil if
necessary
In some climates it is recommended that
a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be
used during cold weather. See chapter 8
for recommendations. If you aren't sure
what weight oil you should use, consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
