!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 be replaced after they have been worn during a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt as- sembly mechanisms become hotduring activation. Do not touchthe 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 Do not attempt to service or re-
pair the pre-tensioner seat belt system in any manner.
o Improper handling of the pre-
o Because the sensor that activates
the SRS airbag is connected withthe pre-tensioner seat belt, theSRS airbag warning light on the instrument panel will blink for approximately 6 seconds af-ter the ignition 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 illuminates while the vehicle is being driven, please have an au-thorized Hyundai dealer inspect the pre-tensioner seat belts and SRS airbag system as soon aspossible.
WARNING:!
AIR
BAG
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 compart- ment. These are normal operat- ing conditions and are not haz-ardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine
dust may cause skin irritationand should not be breathed for prolonged periods. Wash your hands and face thoroughly afteran accident in which the pre- tensioner seat belts were acti- vated.

o Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turn the ignition key to the "LOCK" position or remove the ignitionkey. Never remove or replace the air bag related fuse(s) when the ignition key is in the "ON" posi-tion. Failure to heed this warning will cause the SRS SRI to illumi- nate.!WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dust will be released throughout thevehicle. These conditions are normal and are not hazardous. However, the fine dust generatedduring airbag deployment may cause skin irritation. Wash your hands and face thoroughly withlukewarm water and a mild soap after an accident in which the airbags were deployed.
o The SRS can function only when the ignition key is in the "ON"position. If the SRS SRI does notcome on, or continuously re- mains on, after flashing for about 6 seconds when the ignition keyis turned to the "ON" position, or after the engine is started, comes on while driving, the SRS is notworking properly. If this occurs, have your vehicle immediately inspected by your Hyundaidealer. B990B04Y-GAT Side Impact Airbag (If Installed)
The purpose of the airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the frontpassenger with additional protection than that offered by the seatbelt alone. The side impact airbags are designedto deploy only during certain side im- pact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point ofimpact. The air bags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations.

B240C03Y-GAT SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenance-free and there are no parts you can safelyservice by yourself. The entire SRS system must be inspected by an au- thorized Hyundai dealer 10 years afterthe date that the vehicle was manufac- tured. Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing, repairing, or any work on the steering wheel must beperformed by a qualified Hyundai tech- nician. Improper handling of the SRS system may result in serious personalinjury.
!WARNING:
o The side impact airbag is supple- mental to the driver's and the passenger's seat belt systems and is not a substitute for them. Your seat belts must be worn at alltimes while the vehicle is in mo- tion. The airbags deploy only in certain side impact conditionssevere enough to cause signifi- cant injury to the vehicle occu- pants.
o For best protection from the side
impact airbag system and toavoid being injured by the de- ploying side impact airbag, both front seat occupants should sitin an upright position with the seat belt properly fastened. The driver's hands should be placedon the steering wheel at the 9:00 and 3:00 o'clock positions. The passenger's arms and handsshould be placed on their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat
covers. o Use of seat covers could reduce or
prevent the effectiveness of thesystem.
o Do not install any accessories on
the side or near the side impactairbag.
o Do not use excessive force on
the side of the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag andyourself.
o Do not place any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.) between thefront door and the front seat.Such objects may become dan- gerous projectiles and cause in- jury if the supplemental side im-pact air bag inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deploy-
ment of the side impact air bagthat may result in personal in- jury, avoid impact to the side airbag sensor when the ignitionkey is on.

With the "Recirculation" mode selected, air from within the passenger compart- ment will be drawn through the heatingsystem and heated or cooled according to the function selected. NOTE: It should be noted that prolonged operation of the heating in "Recircu- lation" mode will increase to fog- ging of the windshield and side win-dows and the air within the passen- ger compartment will become stale. In addition, prolonged use of the airconditioning with the "Recirculation" mode selected may result in the air within the passenger compartmentbecoming excessively dry.
This is used to select fresh outside airor recirculating inside air. To change the air intake control mode, (Fresh mode, Recirculation mode) pushthe control button. FRESH MODE
( ) :
The indicator light on the button goes off when the air intake control is in fresh mode. RECIRCULATION MODE ( ):
The indicator light on the button is illuminated when the air intake control is in recirculation mode. HFC2067
For normal heating operation, set the air intake control to the "Fresh" position and the air flow control to "Floor". For faster heating, the air intake control should be in the "Recirculation" posi-tion. If the windows fog up, move the air flow control to the "Def" (defroster) position. (The A/C will turn on automatically and "Fresh" mode will be activated.) For maximum heat, rotate the tempera- ture control to "Warm".

B740D01A-AAT Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when you first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air condition-
ing system, keep all windows closedto keep hot air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy
traffic, shift to a lower gear. Thisincreases engine speed, which in turn increases the speed of the air conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air condi- tioning off to avoid the possibility ofthe engine over-heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioning is not usedregularly, run the air conditioning onceevery month for a few minutes. This will help circulate the lubricants and keep your system in peak operatingcondition.
