Installing a child restraint system
by lap/shoulder belt
To install a child restraint system on
the outboard or center rear seats, do
the following:
1. Place the child restraint system in
the seat and route the lap/shoul-
der belt around or through the
restraint, following the restraint
manufacturer’s instructions. Be
sure the seat belt webbing is not
twisted.2. Fasten the lap/shoulder belt latch
into the buckle. Listen for the dis-
tinct “click” sound.Position the release button so that it
is easy to access in case of an emer-
gency.
3. Buckle the seat belt and allow the
seat belt to take up any slack. After
installation of the child restraint
system, try to move it in all direc-
tions to be sure the child restraint
system 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 nor-
mal seated passenger emergency
locking usage condition.

1. Route the child restraint seat strap
over the seatback.
For vehicles with adjustable head-
rest, route the tether strap under
the headrest and between the
headrest posts, otherwise route
the tether strap over the top of the
seatback.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to
the appropriate child restraint
hook holder and tighten to secure
the child restraint seat.
OVI033035
WARNING- Tether strap
Never mount more than one
child restraint to a single tether
or to a single lower anchorage
point. The increased load
caused by multiple seats may
cause the tethers or anchorage
points to break, causing serious
injury or death.
WARNING
A child can be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the
child restraint is not properly
anchored to the car and the
child is not properly restrained
in the child restraint. Always fol-
low the child seat manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation
and use.
WARNING - Child
restraint check
Check that the child restraint
system is secure by pushing
and pulling it in different direc-
tions. Incorrectly fitted child
restraints may swing, twist, tip
or separate causing death or
serious injury.
WARNING
- Child restraint anchorage
• Child restraint anchorages
are designed to withstand
only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used
for adult seat belts or har-
nesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the
vehicle.
• The tether strap may not work
properly if attached some-
where other than the correct
tether anchor.

Securing a child restraint system
with “ISOFIX” system and “Tether
Anchorage” system (if equipped)
ISOFIX is a standardised method of
fitting child seats that eliminates the
need to use the standard adult seat
belt to secure the seat in the vehicle.
This enables a much more secure
and positive location with the added
benefit of easier and quicker installa-
tion.
An ISOFIX-seat can only be installed
if it has vehicle-specific approval in
accordance with the requirements of
ECE-R44.There is a child restraint symbol
located on the lower portion of each
side of the rear seatbacks. These
symbols indicate the position of the
lower anchors for child restraints so
equipped.
On each side of the rear seat,
between the cushion and backrest,
are located a pair of ISOFIX anchor-
age points together with a top tether
mounting on the shelf behind the
rear seats. During the installation,
the seat has to be engaged at the
anchorage-points in a way you can
hear it clicking (check by pulling!)
and has to be fixed with the Top
Tether-belt on the belonging point on
the shelf behind rear seats.The installing and the use of a child-
seat has to be done according to the
installing-manual, which is added to
the ISOFIX-seat.

To secure the child restraint seat
1. To engage the child restraint seat
to the ISOFIX anchor, insert the
child restraint seat latch into the
ISOFIX anchor. Listen for the audi-
ble “click” sound.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to
the child restraint hook holder and
tighten to secure the seat. (Refer
to the previous page.)
WARNING
• When using the vehicle's
"ISOFIX" system to install a
child restraint system in the
rear seat, all unused vehicle
rear seat belt metal latch
plates or tabs must be latched
securely in their seat belt
buckles and the seat belt web-
bing must be retracted behind
the child restraint to prevent
the child from reaching and
taking hold of unretracted
seat belts. Unlatched metal
latch plates or tabs may allow
the child to reach the unre-
tracted seat belts which may
result in strangulation and a
serious injury or death to the
child in the child restraint.
• Do not place anything around
the lower anchors. Also make
sure that the seat belt is not
caught in the lower anchors.
CAUTION
Do not allow the rear seat belt
webbing to get scratched or
pinched by the ISOFIX-seat
latch and ISOFIX anchor during
the installation.
(Continued)
Do not misuse the ISOFIX
anchors by attempting to
attach a child restraint seat in
the middle of the rear seat to
the ISOFIX anchors. In a crash,
the child restraint seat ISOFIX
attachments may not be strong
enough to secure the child
restraint seat properly in the
center of the rear seat and may
break, causing serious injury
or death.
• Do not mount more than one
child restraint to a child
restraint lower anchorage
point. The improper increased
load may cause the anchorage
points or tether anchor to
break, causing serious injury
or death.
• Attach the ISOFIX or ISOFIX-
compatible child restraint seat
only to the appropriate loca-
tions shown in the illustration.
• Always follow the installation
and use instructions provided
by the manufacturer of the
child restraint.
WARNING
• Do not install a child restraint
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 outboard rear seating
positions.

AIR BAG - SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
OVI033037
* The actual air bags in the vehicle may differ from the illustration.
WARNING
• Even in vehicles with air bags,
you and your passengers must
always wear the safety belts
provided in order to minimize
the risk and severity of injury in
the event of a collision or
rollover.
• SRS and pre-tensioners contain
explosive chemicals.
If scraping a vehicle without
removing SRS and pre-tension-
ers from a vehicle, it may cause
fire. Before scraping a vehicle,
we recommend that you contact
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Keep the SRS parts and wirings
away from water or any liquid. If
the SRS components are inop-
erative due to exposure to water
or liquids, it may cause fire or
severe injury.

Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make
a loud noise and they leave smoke
and powder in the air inside of the
vehicle. This is normal and is a result
of the ignition of the air bag inflator.
After the air bag inflates, you may
feel substantial discomfort in breath-
ing due to the contact of your chest
with both the seat belt and the air
bag, as well as from breathing the
smoke and powder.Open your
doors and/or windows as soon as
possible after impact in order to
reduce discomfort and prevent
prolonged exposure to the smoke
and powder.
Though the smoke and powder are
non-toxic, they may cause irritation
to the skin (eyes, nose and throat,
etc). If this is the case, wash and
rinse with cold water immediately
and consult a doctor if the symptom
persists.
Do not install a child restraint on
the front passenger’s seat.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat. If the air bag deploys, it would
impact the rear-facing child restraint,
causing serious or fatal injury.
WARNING
When the air bags deploy, the
air bag related parts in the
steering wheel and/or instru-
ment panel and/or in both sides
of the roof rails above the front
and rear doors are very hot. To
prevent injury, do not touch the
air bag storage area’s internal
components immediately after
an air bag has inflated.

SRS components and func-
tions
The SRS consists of the following
components:
1. Driver's front air bag module
2. Passenger's front air bag module
3. Side impact air bag modules
4. Curtain air bag modules
5. Retractor pre-tensioner assemblies
6. Air bag warning light
7. SRS control module (SRSCM)
8. Front impact sensors
9. Side impact sensors10. Driver’s knee air bag module
11. Driver’s and front passenger’s
seat belt buckle sensors.
The SRSCM continually monitors all
SRS components while the engine
start/stop button is ON to determine
if a crash impact is severe enough to
require air bag deployment or pre-
tensioner seat belt deployment.
The SRS air bag warning light " "
on the instrument panel will illumi-
nate for about 6 seconds after the
engine start/stop button is turned to
the ON position, after which the SRS
air bag warning light " " should go
out.
OVI039100L
WARNING
If any of the following condi-
tions occurs, this indicates a
malfunction of the SRS. We rec-
ommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• The light does not turn on
briefly when you turn the
engine start/stop button to the
ON position.
• The light stays on after illumi-
nating for approximately 6
seconds.
• The light comes on while the
vehicle is in motion.
• The light blinks when the
engine start/stop button is in
ON position.

Safety features of your vehicle
The front air bag modules are locat-
ed in the center of the steering
wheel, in the front passenger's panel
above the glove box and/or in the dri-
ver’s side knee bolster. When the
SRSCM detects a sufficiently severe
impact to the front of the vehicle, it
will automatically deploy the front air
bags.Upon deployment, tear seams mold-
ed directly into the pad covers will
separate under pressure from the
expansion of the air bags. Further
opening of the covers then allows full
inflation of the air bags.A fully inflated air bag, in combina-
tion with a properly worn seat belt,
slows the driver's or the passenger's
forward motion, reducing the risk of
head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag
immediately starts deflating,
enabling the driver to maintain for-
ward visibility and the ability to steer
or operate other controls.

(Continued)
• The SRS can function only
when the engine start/stop
button is in the ON position. If
the SRS " " warning light
does not illuminate, or contin-
uously remains on after illu-
minating for about 6 seconds
when the engine start/stop
button is turned to the ON
position, or after the engine is
started, comes on while driv-
ing, the SRS is not working
properly. If this occurs, we
recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• Before you replace a fuse or
disconnect a battery terminal,
turn the engine start/stop but-
ton to the OFF position. Never
remove or replace the air bag
related fuse(s) when the
engine start/stop button is in
the ON position. Failure to
heed this warning will cause
the SRS “ ” warning light to
illuminate.
