WARNING:
o Verify the shoulder belt anchor is
locked into position at the appropriate
height. Never position the shoulder
belt across your neck or face. Im-
properly positioned seat belts can
cause serious injuries in an accident.
o Failure to replace seat belts after an
accident could leave you with dam-
aged seat belts that will not provide
protection in the event of another
collision leading to personal injury or
death. Replace your seat belts after
being in an accident as soon as pos-
sible.
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the
retractor and insert the metal tab into the
buckle. There will be an audible "click"
when the tab locks into the buckle.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the
proper length only after the lap belt portion
is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly
around your hips. If you lean forward in a
slow, easy motion, the belt will extend and
let you move around.

If there is a sudden stop or impact, how-
ever, the belt will lock into position. It will
also lock if you try to lean forward too
quickly.NOTE:o If you are not able to pull out the seat
belt from the retractor, firmly pull the
belt out and release it. Then you will be
able to pull the belt out smoothly.
o If the driver's seat belt is not fastened
when the ignition key is in the "ON"
position, the seat belt warning light
will flash and the warning chime will
sound for approximately six seconds.

WARNING:
o For maximum restraint system pro-
tection, the seat belts must always be
used whenever the car is moving.
o Children age 12 and younger must
always be properly restrained in the
rear seat. Never allow children to ride
in the front passenger seat. If a child
over 13 must be seated in the front
seat, he/she must be properly belted
and the seat should be moved as far
back as possible.
o Never wear the shoulder belt under
your arm or behind your back. An
improperly positioned shoulder belt
can cause serious injuries in a crash.
The shoulder belt should be positioned
midway over your shoulder across
your collarbone.
o Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A
twisted belt can't do its job as well. In
a collision, it could even cut into you.
Be sure the belt webbing is straight
and not twisted.
o Be careful not to damage the belt
webbing or hardware. If the belt web-
bing or hardware is damaged, replace
it. When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of a
child restraint system, the seat belt opera-
tion changes to allow the belt to retract, but
not to extend (Automatic Locking Retrac-
tor Type). See page 1-39.
NOTE:Although the convertible retractor pro-
vides the same level of protection for
seated passengers in either emergency
or automatic locking modes, it is recom-
mended that seated passengers use the
emergency locking feature for improved
convenience. The automatic locking
function is intended to facilitate child
restraint installation. To convert from
the automatic locking feature to the
emergency locking operation mode, al-
low the unbuckled seat belt to fully re-
tract.
B190A01CM-AATSEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and
Rear Seat 3-Point System with
Convertible Locking RetractorConvertible retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child re-
straint systems. Although a convertible re-
tractor is also installed in the front passen-
ger seat position, Hyundai strongly recom-
mends that children always be seated in the
rear seat. NEVER place any infant restraint
system in the front seat of the vehicle.
This type of seat belt combines the fea-
tures of both an emergency locking retrac-
tor seat belt and an automatic locking
retractor seat belt. To fasten your seat belt,
pull it out of the retractor and insert the
metal tab into the buckle. There will be an
audible "click" when the tab locks into the
buckle. When not securing a child restraint,
the seat belt operates in the same way as
the driver's seat belt (Emergency Locking
Retractor Type). It automatically adjusts to
the proper length only after the lap belt
portion of the seat belt is adjusted manu-
ally so that it fits snugly around your hips.

WARNING:
You should place the lap belt portion as
low as possible and snugly across your
hips, not on your waist. If the lap belt is
located too high on your waist, it may
increase the chance of injury in the event
of a collision. Both arms should not be
under or over the belt. Rather, one should
be over and the other under, as shown in
the illustration. Never wear the seat belt
under the arm nearest the door.

B200A01A-AATAdjusting Your Seat Belt
B200A01NF
The seat belt is released by pressing the
release button in the locking buckle. When
it is released, the belt should automatically
draw back into the retractor.
If this does not happen, check the belt to be
sure it is not twisted, then try again.B210A01A-AATTo Release the Seat Belt

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMB230A01CM-AATChildren riding in the car should sit in the
rear seat and must always be properly
restrained to minimize the risk of injury in
an accident, sudden stop or sudden ma-
neuver. According to accident statistics
provided by the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA), children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seats than in the front seat. Larger
children not in a child restraint should use
one of the seat belts provided.
All 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific require-
ments in your state. Child and/or infant
safety seats must be properly placed and
installed in the rear seat. You must use a
commercially available child restraint sys-
tem that meets the requirements of the
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
(FMVSS). Child restraint systems are de-
signed to be secured in vehicle seats by
lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/
shoulder belt, or by a LATCH system (if
installed).
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured. For small children and babies, a
child seat or infant seat must be used.

WARNING:
o 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 properly restrained
in the child restraint. Always follow
the child seat manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for installation and use.
o Adjust the rear seatback in a semi-
reclined position from the upright po-
sition, before installing the Child Re-
straint Seat. With the seatback in the
proper reclining angle, push and pull
the child restraint seat in different
directions to be sure it is secure.
B230F01JM-AATChild Restraint System Installation
on Rear Seat Center PositionTo install a child restraint system in the
center rear seat, extend the shoulder/lap
belt entirely from its retractor until a "click"
is felt. This will engage the seat belt retrac-
tor automatic locking feature, which allows
the seat belt to retract but not extend. Install
the child restraint system, buckle the seat
belt and allow the seat belt to take up any
slack. Make sure that the lap portion of the
belt is tight around the child restraint sys-
tem and the shoulder portion of the belt is
positioned so that it can not interfere with
the child's head or neck.
B235G02CM
Also, double check to be sure that the
retractor has engaged the Automatic Lock-
ing feature by trying to extend webbing out
of the retractor. If the retractor is in the
Automatic Locking mode, the belt will be
locked.
CAUTION:
Do not allow the rear seat belt webbing to
get scratched or pinched by the child-
seat latch and LATCH anchor during the
installation.

WARNING:
o If the retractor is not in the Automatic
Locking mode, the child restraint can
move when your vehicle turns or stops
suddenly. A child can be seriously
injured or killed if the child restraint is
not properly anchored to the car, in-
cluding setting the retractor to the
Automatic Locking mode.
o Do not install any child restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger seat.
Should an accident occur and cause
the passenger side air bag to deploy,
it could severely injure or kill an infant
or child seated in an infant or child
seat. Therefore, only use a child re-
straint system in the rear seat of your
vehicle.
o Before installing Child Restraint Sys-
tems, refer to safety notices for Cur-
tain Air Bag systems beginning on
page 1-58 this manual. Whenever in-
stalling child restraints, use only ap-
proved devices and refer to the "Child
Restraint System" section to ensure
correct installation and occupant pro-
tection is maximized. Also, double check to be sure that the
retractor has engaged the Automatic Lock-
ing feature by trying to extend webbing out
of the retractor. If the retractor is in the
Automatic Locking mode, the belt will be
locked. After installation of the child re-
straint system, try to move it in all directions
to be sure the child restraint system is se-
curely installed. If you need to tighten the
belt, pull more webbing toward the retrac-
tor. When you unbuckle the seat belt and
allow it to retract, the retractor will automati-
cally revert back to its normal seated pas-
senger Emergency Locking usage condi-
tion.
NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint
system in any seating position, read
the instructions supplied by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as
described, have the system checked
immediately by your authorized
Hyundai dealer.
B230G01CM-AATChild Restraint System Installation
on Outboard Rear SeatsTo install a child restraint system in the
outboard rear seats, extend the shoulder/
lap belt entirely from its retractor until a
"click" is felt. This will engage the seat belt
retractor automatic locking feature, which
allows the seat belt to retract but not ex-
tend. Install the child restraint system,
buckle the seat belt and allow the seat belt
to take up any slack. Make sure that the lap
portion of the belt is tight around the child
restraint system and the shoulder portion
of the belt is positioned so that it can not
interfere with the child's head or neck.

A fully inflated air bag, in combination with
a properly worn seat belt, slows the driver's
or the passenger's forward motion, reduc-
ing the risk of head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag imme-
diately starts deflating, enabling the driver
to maintain forward visibility, and the abil-
ity to steer or operate other controls.
B240B03L
Upon deployment, tear seams molded
directly into the pad covers will separate
under pressure from the expansion of the
air bags. Further opening of the covers
then allows full inflation of the air bags.
B240B02L
The air bag modules are located both in
the center of the steering wheel and in the
front passenger's panel above the glove
box. When the SRSCM detects a suffi-
ciently severe impact to the front of the
vehicle, it will automatically deploy the
front air bags.
