ILLUMINATED IGNITION SWITCHWhenever either front door is opened, the igni-
tion switch will be illuminated for your conve-
nience, provided the ignition switch is not in the
"ON" position.
The light will go off approximately 10 seconds
after closing the door or when the ignition switch
is turned on.
WARNING:
o Unlocked doors can be dangerous. Be-
fore you drive away (especially if there
are children in the car), be sure that all the
doors are securely closed and locked so
that the doors cannot be opened from
the inside. This helps ensure that the
doors will not be opened accidentally.
Also, when combined with the proper
use of seat belts, locking the doors helps
keep occupants from being ejected from
the car in case of an accident.
o Before opening the door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
B030B01NF-GATRecord Your Key NumberA code number is attached on the number tag
that came with the keys to your Hyundai. This
key number tag should not be left with the keys
but kept in a safe place, not in the vehicle. The
key number should also be recorded in a place
where it can be found in an emergency.
If you need additional keys, or if you should lose
your keys, your authorized Hyundai dealer can
make new keys if you can supply the key
number.

WARNING:
o Passengers can be injured if their head,
hands or other body parts are trapped by
a closing window. Always check for
obstructions before raising any window.
o NEVER leave the ignition key in the ve-
hicle.
o NEVER leave any child unattended in the
vehicle. Even very young children may
inadvertently cause the vehicle to move,
entangle themselves in the windows, or
otherwise injure themselves or others.
o Do not attempt to operate the main switch
on the driver's door and a switch on
another door in opposing directions at
the same time. If this is done, the window
will stop and cannot be opened or closed.
WARNING:
o The automatic reverse feature for the
driver’s window is only active when the
“auto up” feature is used by fully pulling
up the switch. The automatic reverse
feature will not operate if the window is
raised using the halfway position on the
power window switch.
o Always check for obstructions before
raising any window to avoid injuries or
vehicle damage. If an object less than
0.16 in. (4 mm) in diameter is caught
between the window glass and the up-
per window channel, the automatic re-
verse window may not detect the resis-
tance and will not stop and reverse direc-
tion.B060C02NF-AATAutomatic Reverse Window
(Driver's side)If the upward movement of the window is blocked
by an object or part of the body, the window will
detect the resistance and will stop upward
movement. The window will then lower approxi-
mately 11.8 in.(30cm) to allow the object to be
cleared.
NOTE:The power windows can be operated for 30
seconds after the ignition key is turned to
the "ACC" or "LOCK" positions, or removed
from the ignition switch.
If the front doors are opened during this 30
second period, the power windows can no
longer be operated without the ignition key
turned to the "ON" position.

B190A02NF-AATSEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and Rear
Seat 3-Point System with Combination
Locking Retractor
To Fasten Your BeltCombination retractor type seat belts are in-
stalled in the rear seat positions to help accom-
modate the installation of child restraint systems.
Although a combination retractor is also installed
in the front passenger seat position, Hyundai
strongly recommends 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 features of
both an emergency locking retractor 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 Retrac-
tor Type). It automatically adjusts to the proper
length only after the lap belt portion of the seat
belt is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly
around your hips. When the seat belt is fully
extended from the retractor to allow the instal-
lation of a child restraint system, the seat belt
operation changes to allow the belt to retract, but
not to extend (Automatic Locking Retractor
Type). See page 1-33.
NOTE:o Although the combination 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.
o The front passenger's seat belt warning
light on the center fascia panel blinks
until the front passenger's seat belt is
fastened to remind the front passenger
to fasten the front passenger's seat belt,
when the ignition key is turned from the
"OFF" position to "the "ON" or "START"
position.
WARNING:
o For maximum restraint system protec-
tion, the seat belts must always be used
whenever the car is moving.
o Seat belts are most effective when
seatbacks are in the upright position.
o Children age 12 and younger must al-
ways 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 se-
rious 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 web-
bing or hardware. If the belt webbing or
hardware is damaged, replace it.

WARNING:
When fastening the outboard seat belts or
the center seat belt, make sure they are
inserted into the correct buckles to obtain
maximum protection from the seat belt
system and assure proper operation.
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMB230A04Y-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 maneuver. According to acci-
dent statistics provided by the National High-
way 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 requirements 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 system that meets the requirements of
the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
(FMVSS).
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. Before buying a particular
child restraint system, make sure it fits your car
seat and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow
all the instructions provided by the manufac-
turer when installing the child restraint system.
B220C02NF-A
!
o Always lock metal tab (a) into buckle (b)
immediately after returning the rear
seatbacks to an upright position. This
portion of the rear center seat belt should
only be unbuckled when the rear seatback
is folded down.
B220A03NF-A
WARNING:
To disconnect the metal tab (a) from the buckle
(b), insert a narrow-ended tool into the groove
located on the buckle (b).

WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed
in the rear seat. Never install a child or
infant seat on the front passenger's seat.
Should an accident occur and cause the
passenger side airbag to deploy, it could
severely injure or kill an infant or child
seated in an infant or child seat. Thus
only use a child restraint in the rear seat
of your vehicle.
o A safety belt or child restraint system
can become very hot if it is left in a closed
vehicle on a sunny day, even if the out-
side temperature does not feel hot. Be
sure to check the seat cover and buckles
before placing a child there.
o When the child restraint system is not in
use, store it in the trunk or fasten it with
a safety belt so that it will not be thrown
forward in the case of a sudden stop or
an accident.
o Children may be seriously injured or
killed by an inflating airbag. All children,
even those too large for child restraints,
must ride in the rear seat.
!
WARNING:
To reduce the chance or serious or fatal
injuries:
o Children of all ages are safer when re-
strained in the rear seat. A child riding in
the front passenger seat can be force-
fully struck by an inflating airbag result-
ing in serious or fatal injuries.
o Always follow the instructions for in-
stallation and use of the child restraint
maker.
o Always make sure the child seat is se-
cured properly in the car and your child
is securely restrained in the child seat.
o Never hold a child in your arms or lap
when riding in a vehicle. The violent
forces created during a crash will tear the
child from your arms and throw the child
against the car’s interior.
o Never put a seat belt over yourself and a
child. During a crash, the belt could
press deep into the child causing seri-
ous internal injuries.
o Never leave children unattended in a
vehicle – not even for a short time. The
car can heat up very quickly, resulting in
serious injuries to children inside. Even
very young children may inadvertently
cause the vehicle to move, entangle them-
selves in the windows, or lock them-
selves or others inside the vehicle.o Never allow two children, or any two
persons, to use the same seat belt.
o Children often squirm and reposition
themselves improperly. Never let a child
ride with the shoulder belt under their
arm or behind their back. Always prop-
erly position and secure children in rear
seat.
o Never allow a child to stand-up or kneel
on the seat or floorboard of a moving
vehicle. During a collision or sudden
stop, the child can be violently thrown
against the vehicles interior, resulting in
serious injury.
o Never use an infant carrier or a child
safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback,
it may not provide adequate security in
an accident.
o Seat belts can become very hot, espe-
cially when the car is parked in direct
sunlight. Always check seat belt buck-
les before fastening them over a child.
o Always store or secure a child seat, even
when it is not in use. During a collision
or sudden stop, the child seat could be
thrown inside the vehicle.

On outboard rear seats
B235G02NF-A
On rear seat center positionTo install a child restraint system in the 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
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 system and
the shoulder portion of the belt is positioned so
that it cannot interfere with the child's head or
neck. Also, double check to be sure that the
retractor has engaged the Automatic Locking
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 restraint system, try to
move it in all directions to be sure the child
restraint system is securely installed. If you need
to tighten the belt, pull more webbing toward the
retractor. When you unbuckle the seat belt and
allow it to retract, the retractor will automatically
revert back to its normal seated passenger
Emergency Locking usage condition.
!
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 in-
jured or killed if the child restraint is not
properly anchored to the car, including
setting the retractor to the Automatic
Locking mode.
o Do not install any child restraint system
in the front passenger seat. Should an
accident occur and cause the passenger
side airbag to deploy, it could severely
injure or kill an infant or child seated in
an infant or child seat. Therefore, only
use a child restraint system in the rear
seat of your vehicle.NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint sys-
tem in any seating position, read the
instructions supplied by the child re-
straint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as de-
scribed, have the system checked imme-
diately by your authorized Hyundai dealer.
