Safety features of your vehicle
The installing and the use of a child-seat has to be done according to the
installing-manual, which is added to theISOFIX-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 audible “click”sound.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the child restraint hook holder and tighten
to secure the seat. (Refer to the previ-
ous page.)
WARNING
Install the child restraint seat fully
rearward against the seatback with
the seatback reclined two positions
from the most upright latched posi-tion.
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 takinghold of unretracted seat belts.
Unlatched metal latch plates or
tabs may allow the child to reach
the unretracted 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 surethat the seat belt is not caught in
the lower anchors.
CAUTION
Do not allow the rear seat belt web-
bing to get scratched or pinched by
the ISOFIX-seat latch and ISOFIXanchor during installation.

Safety features of your vehicle
Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate in a frontal collision depending on the intensi-
ty, speed or angles of impact of the frontcollision.
WARNING
 Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where air bag
or sensors are installed.
This may cause unexpected air
bag deployment, which could
result in serious personal injuryor death.
 If the installation location or angle of the sensors is altered in
any way, the air bags may deploy
when they should not or they may
not deploy when they should,
causing severe injury or death.
Therefore, do not try to perform
maintenance on or around the air
bag sensors. We recommend that
the system be serviced by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)(Continued)
 Problems may arise if the sensorinstallation angles are changed
due to the deformation of the
front bumper, body or B pillar and
C pillars where side collision sen-
sors are installed. We recom-
mend that the system be serviced
by an authorised HYUNDAI deal-
er.
 Your vehicle has been designed to absorb impact and deploy the
air bag(s) in certain collisions.
Installing bumper guards or
replacing a bumper with non-gen-
uine parts may adversely affect
your vehicles collision and air
bag deployment performance.

Anti-lock brake system
(ABS) warning light (if equipped)
This light illuminates if the ignition switch
is turned to ON and goes off in approxi-
mately 3 seconds if the system is operat-
ing normally.
If the ABS warning light remains on,
comes on whilst driving, or does not
come on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, this indicates
that there may be a problem with the
ABS.
If this occurs, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer. The normal braking
system will still be operational, but with-
out the assistance of the anti-lock brakesystem. Electronic brakeforce distribution(EBD) systemwarning light
If two warning lights illuminate at the
same time whilst driving, your vehicle
may have a malfunction with ABS andEBD system.
In this case, your ABS and regular brake
system may not work normally. We rec-
ommend that the system be checked by
an authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
✽✽
NOTICE
If the ABS warning light or EBD warn- ing light is on and stays on, the
speedometer or odometer/tripmeter
may not work. Also, the EPS warninglight may illuminate and the steering
effort may increase or decrease. In this
case, we recommend that the system bechecked by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.
WARNING
If the both ABS and Brake warning lights are on and stay on, your vehi-cle’s brake system will not worknormally. So you may experiencean unexpected and dangerous situ-ation during sudden braking. In thiscase, avoid high speed driving andabrupt braking. We recommend that the system be checked by an authorisedHYUNDAI dealer.

Anti-lock brake system (ABS) The ABS continuously senses the speed
of the wheels. If the wheels are going to
lock, the ABS system repeatedly modu-
lates the hydraulic brake pressure to the
wheels.
When you apply your brakes under con-
ditions which may lock the wheels, you
may hear a “tik-tik’’ sound from the
brakes, or feel a corresponding sensation
in the brake pedal. This is normal and it
means your ABS is active.
In order to obtain the maximum benefit
from your ABS in an emergency situa-
tion, do not attempt to modulate your
brake pressure and do not try to pump
your brakes. Press your brake pedal as
hard as possible or as hard as the situa-
tion warrants and allow the ABS to con-
trol the force being delivered to the
brakes.
WARNING
ABS (or ESC) will not prevent acci-
dents due to improper or danger-
ous driving manoeuvres. Even
though vehicle control is improved
during emergency braking, always
maintain a safe distance between
you and objects ahead. Vehicle
speeds should always be reduced
during extreme road conditions.
The braking distance for vehicle
equipped with an anti-lock braking
system (Electronic Stability
Program System) may be longer
than for those without it in the fol-
lowing road conditions.
During these conditions the vehicle should be driven at reducedspeeds:
 Rough, gravel or snow-covered roads.
 With tyre chains installed.
 On roads where the road surface is pitted or has different surface height.

(Continued)
The safety features of an ABS (or
ESC) equipped vehicle should not
be tested by high speed driving or
cornering. This could endanger the
safety of yourself or others.

Driving your vehicle
✽✽NOTICE
A click sound may be heard in the engine compartment when the vehicle
begins to move after the engine is start-
ed. These conditions are normal andindicate that the anti-lock brake system
is functioning properly.
 Even with the anti-lock brake system, your vehicle still requires sufficient
stopping distance. Always maintain a
safe distance from the vehicle in front
of you.
 Always slow down when cornering. The anti-lock brake system cannot pre-
vent accidents resulting from exces-
sive speeds.
 On loose or uneven road surfaces, operation of the anti-lock brake system
may result in a longer stopping dis-
tance than for vehicles equipped with a
conventional brake system.
CAUTION
 If the ABS warning light is on and
stays on, you may have a problemwith the ABS. In this case, howev-
er, your regular brakes will worknormally.
 The ABS warning light will stay on for approximately 3 secondsafter the ignition switch is ON.
During that time, the ABS will gothrough self-diagnosis and the light will go off if everything isnormal. If the light stays on, you
may have a problem with yourABS. We recommend that you contact an authorised HYUNDAIdealer.
CAUTION
 When you drive on a road having poor traction, such as an icy road,
and operate your brakes continu- ously, the ABS will be active con-tinuously and the ABS warninglight may illuminate. Pull your
vehicle over to a safe place andstop the engine.
 Restart the engine. If the ABS warning light is off, then your
ABS system is normal. Otherwise, you may have a prob-lem with the ABS. We recommend that you contact an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.

✽✽
NOTICE
When you jump start your vehicle
because of a drained battery, the engine
may not run as smoothly and the ABSwarning light may turn on at the same
time. This happens because of the lowbattery voltage. It does not mean yourABS is malfunctioning.

Driving your vehicle
ESS : Emergency Stop Signal The Emergency Stop Signal system
alerts the driver behind by blinking the
stop light when the vehicle suddenly
stops or when the ABS activates in a
stop. (The system activates when the
vehicle speed is over 55km/h and the
vehicle deceleration is over 7m/s² or the
ABS activates when the vehicle emer-
gency braking.)
When the vehicle speed is under 40 km/h
and the ABS deactivates or the sudden
stop situation is over, the stop light will
not blink. Instead, the hazard warning
flasher will turn on automatically.
The hazard warning flasher will turn off
when the vehicle speed is over 10km/h
after the vehicle has stopped. Also, it will
turn off when the vehicle drives at low
speed for some time. You can turn it off
manually by pushing the hazard warning
flasher switch.Trailer stability assist (TSA) (if equipped)
Trailer stability assist is operated as vehi-
cle stability control system. Trailer stabili-
ty assist system has an effort to stabilize
the vehicle and trailer when the trailer
sways or oscillates. There are various
reasons making vehicle sway and oscil-
late. Almost case it happens at high
speed however, if the trailer is affected by
crosswinds, buffeting, and improper over-
loading, it may be a risk of swaying.
Factors of swaying such as: - High speed
- Strong crosswinds
- Improper overloading
- Sudden controlling of steering wheel
- Uneven road
Trailer stability assist system continuous-
ly analyzes the vehicle and trailer insta-
bility. When the Trailer stability assist sys-
tem detects some sway, the brakes are
applied automatically to stabilize the
vehicle on the front wheel. However, if it
is not enough to stabilize, the brakes areapplied on all wheels automatically and
engine power is properly reduced. When
the vehicle is stable from swaying, trailer
stability assist system does not operate.
CAUTION
The Emergency Stop Signal system
will not work if the hazard warningflasher is already on.
