Lock knob
B080D03A-AAT Adjustable Headrests Headrests are designed to help reduce the risk of neck injuries. To raise the headrest, pull it up. Tolower it, push it down while pressing the lock knob.
WARNING:
To minimize risk of severe injury in the event of a collision or a suddenstop, both the driver and passen- ger seatbacks should always be in an upright position while the ve-hicle is in motion. The protection provided by the seat belts and airbags may be reduced significant-ly when the seatbacks are reclined. There is greater risk that the driver and passenger will slide under theseat belt which may result in seri- ous injury if a crash occurs when the seatbacks are reclined. The seatbelt cannot provide full protection to an occupant if the seat back is reclined.
!!WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the headrest should be adjusted so the middle of theheadrest is at the same height as the top of the occupant's eyes. The use of a cushion that holdsthe body away from the seatback is not recommended. B080D01JM

o Children who are too large to be in
a child restraint should sit in the rear seat and be restrained with the available lap/shoulder belts. Never allow children to ride in thefront passenger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoul- der belt portion of the outboard lap/shoulder belt is positioned midway over the shoulder, neveracross the neck or behind the back. Moving the child closer to the center of the vehicle may helpprovide a good shoulder belt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/ shoulder belt or the center seat lap belt must always be posi- tioned as low as possible on thechild's hips and as snug as pos- sible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, Hyundai recommends the use of an approved boosterseat in the rear seat in order to raise the child's seating height so that the seat belt will properly fitthe child.B230A03A-GAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (If Installed) Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be properly restrained to minimize therisk of injury in an accident, sudden stop or sudden maneuver. According to accident statistics, children are saferwhen properly restrained in the rear seats than in the front seat. Larger children not in a child restraint shoulduse one of the seat belts provided. You are required by law to use safety restraints for children. If small childrenride in your vehicle you must put them in a child restraint system (safety seat). Children could be injured or killed in acrash if their restraints are not properly secured. For small children and ba- bies, a child seat or infant seat must beused. 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. WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat. Never install a child or infant seat on the front passenger's seat.Should an accident occur and cause the passenger side airbag to deploy, it could severely in-jure or kill an infant or child seated in an infant or child seat. Thus, only use a child restraint in therear seat of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child re- straint system can become very hot if it is left in a closed vehicle, be sure to check the seat coverand buckles before placing a child there.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, store it in the trunk or fasten it with a safety belt so that itwill not be thrown forward in the case of a sudden stop or an acci- dent.

o Never allow a child to stand up or
kneel on the seat.
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 a moving vehicle, as this could re-sult in serious injury to the child in the event of an accident or a sudden stop. Holding a child in amoving 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 restaint seat is not anchored properly, the risk of achild being seriously injured or killed in a collision greatly in- creases.
B230G01L
WARNING:
Do not install any child restraint sys- tem in the front passenger seat. Should an accident occur and causethe passenger side airbag to deploy, it could severely injure or kill an infant or child seated in an infant orchild seat. Therefore, only use a child restraint system in the rear seat of your vehicle.
If you need to tighten the belt, pull more webbing toward the retractor. When you unbuckle the seat belt and allow it toretract, 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.
!
To install a child restraint system in the outboard rear seats, extend the shoul- der/lap belt from its retractor. Installthe child restraint system, buckle the seat belt and allow the seat belt to take up any slack. Make sure that the lapportion of the belt is tight around the child restraint system and the shoulder portion of the belt is positioned so thatit cannot interfere with the child's head or neck. After installation of the child restraint system, try to move it in alldirections to be sure the child restraint system is securely installed.B230G01A-GAT Installation on Outboard Rear Seats

B180B01A-GAT Pre-tensioner Seat Belt (With A/BAG) (If Installed) Your 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 frontal col-lisions. The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated with the airbags. The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as an Emergency Lock- ing Retractor (ELR) type of seat belt. When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant tries to lean forward tooquickly, the seat belt retractor will lock into position. However, in certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will acti-vate and pull the seat belt into tighter contact against the occupant's body.
WARNING:
If the pre-tensioner seat belt was activated, never attempt to replace it by yourself. It must be replaced by an authorized Hyundai Dealer.

WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn cor- rectly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position.!
NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front
passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated in certain frontal collisions. The pre- tensioner seat belts can be acti-vated with the airbags. The pre- tensioners will be activated un- der these conditions even if theseat belts are not being worn at the time of the collision.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise maybe heard and fine dust, which may appear to be smoke, may bevisible in the passenger com- partment. These are normal op- erating conditions and are nothazardous. illuminates while the vehicle is being driven, please have an au- thorized Hyundai dealer inspectthe pre-tensioner seat belt or SRS airbag system as soon as pos- sible.
WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate only one time. After acti- vation, pre-tensioner seat belts must be replaced. All seat belts, of any type, should always bereplaced after they have been worn during a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt as-
sembly mechanisms become hotduring activation. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat belt as-semblies for several minutes af- ter they have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or re-
place the pre-tensioner seat beltsyourself. This must be done by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies.!
o Although it is harmless, the finedust may cause skin irritation and should not be breathed for pro-longed periods. Wash your hands and face thoroughly after an acci- dent in which the pre-tensionerseat belts were activated.
! CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected with the pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRSairbag warning light on the instrument panel will blink for ap- proximately 6 seconds after theignition key has been turned to the "ON" position, and then it should turn off.
o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, this warn-ing light will illuminate even ifthere is no malfunction of the SRS airbag system . If the SRS airbag warning light does notilluminate when the ignition key is turned to "ON", or if it remains illuminated after blinking for ap-proximately 6 seconds, or if it

Driver's Airbag
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supple- mental Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of the system's presenceare the letters "SRS AIR BAG" em- bossed on the airbag pad cover in the steering wheel and printed on thepassenger's side front panel pad above the glove box. The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in the center of the steering wheel and thepassenger's side front panel above the glove box. The purpose of the SRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the B240A01TB-GAT SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (If Installed)
o Do not attempt to service or repair
the pre-tensioner seat belt system in any manner.
o Improper handling of the pre- tensioner seat belt assemblies,and failure to heed the warningsto not strike, modify, inspect, re- place, service or repair the pre- tensioner seat belt assembliesmay lead to improper operation or inadvertent activation and se- rious injury.
o Always wear the seat belts when driving or riding in a motor ve-hicle.
front passenger with additional protec- tion than that offered by the seat belt system alone, in case of a frontal im-pact of sufficient severity. NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS on the labels provided on the backside of the sun visor and in the glove box.
WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed to work with, and be supplemental to, the driver's and the passenger's three point seatbelt systems and is not a substi- tute for them. Therefore your seat belts must be worn at all timeswhile the vehicle is in motion. In addition, the airbags deploy only in certain frontal impact condi-tions severe enough to cause significant injury to the vehicle occupants.

Rear impact
Side Impact Rollover
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear-im- pact or rollover crashes. In addi-tion, airbags will not deploy in frontal crashes below the deploy- ment threshold speed.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the
airbags only when an impact issufficiently severe and when theimpact angle is less than 30° from the forward longitudinal axis of the vehicle and will not deploy inside, rear or rollover impacts. Ad- ditionally, the airbags will only deploy once. Thus, seat beltsmust be worn at all times.
o The driver should sit back as far aspossible while still maintaining control of the vehicle. If you aresitting too close to the airbag, it can cause death or serious injury when it inflates.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules onthe steering wheel, instrumentpanel, and the front passenger's panel above the glove box, because any such object couldcause harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to cause the airbags to deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must be replaced by an authorizedHyundai dealer.
o Do not tamper with or discon- nect SRS wiring, or other com-ponents of the SRS system. Do-ing so could result in injury, due to accidental firing of the airbags or by rendering the SRS inopera-tive.
o Do not install a child restraint
system in the front passengerseat position. A child restraint system must never be placed in the front seat. The infant or childcould be severely injured or killed by an airbag deployment in case of an accident.
o Do not allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. If olderchildren (teenagers and older)must ride in the front seat, make sure they are always properly belted and that the seat is movedback as far as possible.
o For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, all occu-pants including the driver should always wear their seat belts whether or not an airbag is alsoprovided at their seating posi- tion to minimize the risk of se- vere injury or death in the eventof a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close to the airbag while the vehicle is in motion.
o The SRS airbag system must de- ploy very rapidly to provide pro-tection in a crash. If an occupantis out of position because of not wearing a seat belt, the airbag may forcefully contact the occu-pant causing serious or fatal in- juries.
