Securing a child restraint seat with
“Tether Anchor” system (if equipped)
Child restraint hook holders are located
on the back of the rear seats. 1. Route the child restraint seat strap
over the seatback.
For vehicles with adjustable head
restraint, route the tether strap under
the head restraint and between the
head restraint posts, otherwise route
the tether strap over the top of the
seatback.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the appropriate child restraint hook holderand tighten to secure the seat.
OEL039034WARNING - 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 prop-
erly restrained in the child restraint.
Always follow the child seat manu-
facturer’s instructions for installa-
tion and use.

Securing a child restraint systemwith “ISOFIX” system and “TetherAnchorage” system (if equipped)
ISOFIX is a standardised method of fit- ting child seats that eliminates the needto use the standard adult seat belt to
secure the seat in the vehicle. This
enables a much more secure and posi-
tive location with the added benefit of
easier and quicker installation.
An ISOFIX-seat may only be installed if it
has vehicle-specific or universal approval in accordance with the requirements of ECE-R 44. There are ISOFIX symbols 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.

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 foradult seat belts or harnesses or
for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
 The tether strap may not work properly if attached somewhereother than the correct tether
anchor.

ISOFIX anchorages are located between
seat cushion and back rest, marked withthe ISOFIX icon.
For installation, CRS ISOFIX connecters
have to engage with the vehicles ISOFIX
anchorages (listen for a CLICK, checkpotential visual indicators on the CRS
and cross-check by pulling).
CRS with universal approval to ECE-R
44 need to be fixed additionally with a top
tether strap connected to the correspon-
ding top tether anchorage point in the
back rest. The installing and the use of a child-seathas to be done according to the

the warning light should illuminate for
approximately 6 seconds, then go off.
Have the system checked if:
 The light does not turn on briefly when
you turn the ignition ON.
 The light stays on after illuminating for approximately 6 seconds.
 The light comes on whilst the vehicle is in motion.
 The light blinks when the ignition switch is in ON position.

by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of
it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to
the CHILD can occur.
 Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on
a seat protected by an air bag in
front of it!

The indications of the system's presence
are the letters "AIR BAG" embossed on
the air bag pad cover on the steeringwheel and the passenger's side front
panel pad above the glove box. The SRS consists of air bags installed
under the pad covers in the centre of the
steering wheel and the passenger's side
in the front panel above the glove box.
The purpose of the SRS is to provide the
vehicle's driver and/or the front passen-ger with additional protection than that
offered by the seat belt system alone incase of a frontal impact of sufficient
severity.
WARNING
Always use seat belts and child
restraints – every trip, every time,
everyone! Air bags inflate with
considerable force and in the blink
of an eye. Seat belts help keep
occupants in proper position to
obtain maximum benefit from the
air bag. Even with air bags, improp-
erly and unbelted occupants can be
severely injured when the air bag
inflates. Always follow the precau-
tions about seat belts, air bags and
occupant safety contained in this
manual.
To reduce the chance of serious or fatal injuries and receive the maxi-
mum safety benefit from yourrestraint system:
 Never place a child in any child or booster seat in the front seat. NB
See section - Passenger's front
air bag ON/OFF switch (ifequipped).
 ABC – Always Buckle Children in the back seat. It is the safest
place for children of any age to
ride.
(Continued)(Continued)
 Front and side air bags can injureoccupants improperly positioned
in the front seats.
 Move your seat as far back as practical from the front air bags,
whilst still maintaining control of
the vehicle.
 You and your passengers should never sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the air bags. Improperly
positioned drivers and passen-
gers can be severely injured by
inflating air bags.
 Never lean against the door or centre console – always sit in anupright position.
 No objects should be placed over or near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, and the front passenger's
panel above the glove box,
because any such object could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause
the air bags to deploy.

Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF
switch (if equipped)
The passenger's front air bag can be
deactivated by the passenger's front air
bag ON/OFF switch. When switched off a
rearward facing child seat can be
installed in this seating position. When
using this facility the seat must always be
put in its most rearward position.
NB. For safety reasons, when installing
child seats within the vehicle the back
seat positions are preferred, such prac-
tice for installing a child seat in the front
passenger seat (with the Air Bag switchpositioned OFF) should only be used in
exceptional circumstances.In addition the air bag can also be deac-
tivated if the front passenger's seat is
unoccupied by a person. To deactivate or reactivate the passen-
ger’s front air bag:
To deactivate the passenger’s front air
bag, insert the master key into the pas-
senger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch
and turn it to the OFF position. The pas-
senger’s front air bag OFF indicator ( )
will illuminate and stay on until the pas-
senger’s front air bag is reactivated.
To reactivate the passenger’s front air
bag, insert the master key into the pas-
senger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch
and turn it to the ON position. The pas-
senger’s front air bag OFF indicator will
go out and the passenger’s front air bag
ON indicator ( ) will illuminate for
approximately 60 seconds.
(Continued)
 The SRS air bag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If an occu-pant is out of position because of
not wearing a seat belt, the air
bag may forcefully contact theoccupant causing serious or fatalinjuries.

• The side air bags are designed todeploy only during certain side-impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity, angle, speed and point ofimpact.
 The side air bags do not only deploy on the side of the impact but also on the
opposite side.(Continued)
• Use of seat covers could reduceor prevent the effectiveness of the system.
 Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side air bag.
 Do not place any objects over the air bag or between the air bag
and yourself.
 Do not place any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.) between the
front door and the front seat.
Such objects may become dan-
gerous projectiles and cause
injury if the supplemental side air
bag inflates.
 To prevent unexpected deploy- ment of the side air bag that may
result in personal injury, avoidimpact to the side impact sensor
when the ignition key is on.
 If seat or seat cover is damaged, we recommend that the system
be serviced by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer. Inform that your
vehicle is equipped with side air
bags.WARNING
 The side air bag is supplemental to the driver's and the passen-
ger's seat belt systems and is not
a substitute for them. Therefore
your seat belts must be worn at
all times whilst the vehicle is in
motion. The air bags deploy only
in certain side impact conditions
severe enough to cause signifi-
cant injury to the vehicle occu-pants.
 For best protection from the side air bag system and to avoid being
injured by the deploying side air
bag, both front seat occupantsshould sit in an upright position
with the seat belt properly fas-
tened. The driver's hands shouldbe placed on the steering wheelat the 9:00 and 3:00 positions.
The passenger's arms and handsshould be placed on their laps.
 Do not use any accessory seat covers.

Curtain air bag (if equipped)
Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors.
They are designed to help protect theheads of the front seat occupants andthe rear outboard seat occupants in cer-
tain side impact collisions. • The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact colli-
sions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and point of impact.
 The curtain air bags do not only deploy on the side of the impact but also on
the opposite side.
 The curtain air bags are not designed to deploy in all side impact.
WARNING
• In order for side and curtain air bags to provide the best protec-
tion, both front seat occupants
and both outboard rear occu-pants should sit in an upright
position with the seat belts prop-
erly fastened. Importantly, chil-
dren should sit in a proper childrestraint system in the rear seat.
 When children are seated in the rear outboard seats, they must be
seated in the proper childrestraint system.
Make sure to put the child
restraint system as far away from
the door side as possible, and
secure the child restraint system
in a locked position.
