(Continued)
(Continued)
Be careful when loading cargo
through the rear passenger seats
to prevent damage to the vehicle
interior.
When cargo is loaded through the
rear passenger seats, ensure the
cargo is properly secured to pre-
vent it from moving while driving.
Unsecured cargo in the passen-
ger compartment can cause dam-
age to the vehicle or injury to it’s
occupants.WARNING- Cargo
Cargo should always be secured to
prevent it from being thrown about
the vehicle in a collision and caus-
ing injury to the vehicle occupants.
Do not place objects on the rear
seats, since they cannot be proper-
ly secured and may hit the front
seat occupants in a collision.
WARNING - Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
shift lever is in P (Park) and the
parking brake is securely applied
whenever loading or unloading
cargo. Failure to take these steps
may allow the vehicle to move if the
shift lever is inadvertently moved to
another position.

the armrest. Be careful not to dam-
age to the high voltage battery. Do
not take off the trim for the high
voltage battery when using the
strap. If not, the high voltage battery
is damaged. Further it may cause
electric shock or burns that can
result in a death or serious injury.

Seat belt restraint system
SEAT BELTS
WARNING
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis, chest
and shoulders, as applicable; wear-
ing the lap section of the belt
across the abdominal area must be
avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been designed.
(Continued)
(Continued)
A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the occupant.
Care should be taken to avoid con-
tamination of the webbing with pol-
ishes, oils and chemicals and par-
ticularly battery acid. Cleaning may
safely be carried out using mild
soap and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes
frayed, contaminated or damaged.
It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in
a severe impact even if damage to
the assembly is not obvious. Belts
should not be worn with straps
twisted. Each seat belt assembly
must only be used by one occu-
pant; it is dangerous to put a belt
around a child being carried on the
occupant's lap.(Continued)
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 twist-
ed.
Be careful not to damage the belt
webbing or hardware. If the belt
webbing or hardware is dam-
aged, replace it.
WARNING
For maximum restraint system
protection, the seat belts must
always be used whenever the car
is moving.
Seat belts are most effective
when seatbacks are in the
upright position.
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 12
must be seated in the front seat,
he/she must be properly belted
and the seat should be moved as
far back as possible.
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.

Occupant classification system
Your vehicle is equipped with an occu-
pant classification system in the front
passenger's seat.The occupant classification system is
designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated front passenger and
determine if the passenger's front air bag
should be enabled (may inflate) or not.
The driver's front air bag is not affected
or controlled by the occupant classifica-
tion system.
(Continued)
Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turn
the engine start/stop button to the
OFF position. Never remove or
replace the air bag related fuse(s)
when the engine start/stop button
is in the ON position. Failure to
heed this warning will cause the
SRS air bag warning light " " to
illuminate.

ON position by pressing the button while
carrying the smart key.
To activate the immobilizer system:
Turn the engine start/stop button to the
OFF position. The immobilizer system
activates automatically. Without a valid
smart key for your vehicle, the engine will
not start.

you years of trouble-free use,
however it can malfunction if
exposed to moisture or static
electricity. If you are unsure how
to use or replace the battery, con-
tact an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er.
Using the wrong battery can
cause the smart key to malfunc-
tion. Be sure to use the correct
battery.
To avoid damaging the smart key,
don't drop it, get it wet, or expose
it to heat or sunlight.
An inappropriately disposed bat-
tery can be harmful to the envi-
ronment and human health.
Dispose the battery according to
your local law(s) or regulation.
CAUTION
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle. Your
Immobilizer password is a customer
unique password and should be
kept confidential. Do not leave this
number anywhere in your vehicle.
