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:
To ensure the seat is locked se- curely, attempt to move the seat for- ward or rearward without using thelock release lever.!
To recline the seatback, lean forward to take your weight off it, then pull up onthe recliner control lever at the outside edge of the seat. Now lean back until the desired seatback angle is achieved.To lock the seatback into position, release the recliner control lever.

This will release the seat on its track so you can move it forward orrearward to the desired position. When you find the position you want, release the lever and slide the seat forward orrearward on its track until it locks into the desired position and cannot be moved further.

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.B230A04A-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). Child restraint systems are designed tobe secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt, or by a tether anchor and/or ISOFIXanchors (if installed). Children could be injured or killed in a crash if their restraints are not properlysecured. For small children and babies, a child seat or infant seat must be used. Before buying a particular child restraintsystem, make sure it fits your car and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all the instructions provided by the manu-facturer when installing the child re- straint system. WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat. Neverinstall 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 luggage compartment or fasten it with asafety belt so that it will not be thrown forward in the case of a sudden stop or an accident.

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.

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 Child Restraint System Installa- tion on Outboard Rear Seats
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.!

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 frontpassenger'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.
The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as an Emergency Lock- ing Retractor (ELR) type of seat belt.
HXG229
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 ofthe 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.
When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant tries to lean forward too quickly, the seat belt retractor will lockinto position. However, in certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will acti- vate and pull the seat belt into tightercontact against the occupant's body.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists mainly of the following compo- nents. Their locations are shown in the illus- tration.

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
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.

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 belts mustbe worn at all times.
B240B01TB
Driver's Airbag
Your vehicle is equipped with a Supple- mental Restraint (Air Bag) System and lap/shoulder belts at both the driver andpassenger seating positions. The indi- cations of the system's presence are the letters "SRS AIR BAG" embossedon the airbag pad cover in the steering wheel and printed on the passenger's side front panel pad above the glovebox. The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in the center of the steering wheel and the passenger's side front panel above theglove box. B240A03TB-GAT SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (If Installed)
The purpose of the SRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger with additional protectionthan that offered by the seat belt sys- tem alone, in case of a frontal impact of sufficient severity. NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS on the labels provided onthe backside of the sun visor.
WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed to work with, and besupplemental to, the driver's and the passenger's three point seat belt systems and is not a substi-tute for them. Therefore your seat belts must be worn at all times while the vehicle is in motion. Inaddition, the airbags deploy only in certain frontal impact condi- tions severe enough to causesignificant injury to the vehicle occupants.
