!WARNING:
To minimize risk of severe injury in the event of a collision or a sudden stop, both the driver and passen- ger seatbacks should always be inan upright position while the ve- hicle is in motion. The protection provided by the seat belts andairbags in a frontal collision may be reduced significantly when the seatbacks are reclined. There isgreater risk that the driver and pas- senger will slide under the seat belt which may result in serious injury ifa crash occurs when the seatbacks are reclined. The seat belt cannot provide full protection to an occu-pant if the seat back is reclined.
To recline the seatback, lean forward totake your weight off it, then pull up on the recliner control lever at the outside edge of the seat. HFC2025

tensioner seat belt assemblies, and failure to heed the warnings to not strike, modify, inspect, replace, service or repair the pre-tensionerseat belt assemblies may lead to improper operation or inadvertent activation and serious injury.
o Always wear seat belts when driv- ing or riding in a motor vehicle. B240A03F-GAT (If Installed) Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supple- mental Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of the system's presence are the letters "SRS AIR BAG" em-bossed on the airbag pad cover in the steering wheel and the passenger's side front panel pad above the glove box. The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in thecenter of the steering wheel and the passenger's side front panel above the glove box. The purpose of the SRS isto provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger with additional pro-HFC1073

tection 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 onthe 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 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.

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.
