B230A02A-GAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (If installed) Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always berestrained to minimize the risk of injuryin an accident, sudden stop or suddenmaneuver. According to accident sta- tistics, children are safer when prop- erly restrained in the rear seats than inthe front seat. Larger children not in achild restraint should use one of theseat belts provided.You are required by law to use safety restraints for children. If small children ride in your vehicle you must put themin a child restraint system (safety seat).Children could be injured or killed in acrash if their restraints are not properlysecured. For small children and ba- bies, a child seat or infant seat must be used. Before buying a particular childrestraint system, make sure it fits yourcar seat and seat belts, and fits yourchild. Follow all the instructions pro-vided by the manufacturer when in- stalling the child restraint system.

1- 24 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
o Children who are too large to be
in a child restraint should sit in the rear seat and be restrainedwith the available lap/shoulder belts. Never allow children to ride inthe front passenger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoul-
der belt portion of the outboardlap/shoulder belt is positioned midway over the shoulder, never across the neck. Moving the childcloser to the center of the vehiclemay help provide a good shoul-der belt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or the cen- ter seat lap belt must always bepositioned as low as possible onthe child's hips and as snug aspossible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, Hyundai recommendsthe use of an approved boosterseat in the rear seat in order toraise the child's seating heightso that the seat belt will properlyfit the child.
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 andcause the passenger side airbagto deploy, it could severely in-jure or kill an infant or child seated in an infant or child seat. Thus, only use a child restraint in therear seat of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child re-
straint system can become very hot if it is left in a closed vehicle, be sure to check the seat coverand buckles before placing achild 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 forwardin the case of a sudden stop or anaccident. o Never allow a child to stand up or
kneel on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or child safety seat that "hooks"over a seatback; it may not pro-vide adequate security in an ac-cident.
o Never allow a child to be held in a person's arms while they are in a moving vehicle, as this could result in serious injury to thechild in the event of an accidentor a sudden stop. Holding a childin a moving vehicle does not provide the child with any means of protection during an accident,even if the person holding thechild is wearing a seat belt.
o If the child restraint seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child being seriously injured or killed in a collision greatly in-creases.

o Front airbags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-im- pact or rollover crashes. In addi-tion, airbags will not deploy infrontal crashes below the deploy-ment threshold speed.
o The driver should sit back as far as possible while still maintain-ing control of the vehicle. If youare sitting too close to the airbag,it can cause death or seriousinjury when it inflates.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules onthe steering wheel, instrumentpanel, and the front passenger'spanel above the glove box,because any such object couldcause harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to cause the airbags to deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must
be replaced by an authorizedHyundai dealer.o The SRS is designed to deploythe airbags only when an impact is sufficiently severe and whenthe impact angle is less than 30°from the forward longitudinal axisof the vehicle and will not deployin side, rear or rollover impacts. Additionally, the airbags will only deploy once. Thus, seat beltsmust be worn at all times.
o Front airbags are not intended deploy in light collisions in whichprotection can be provided by the seat belt.

!WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed to work with, and be supplemental to, the driver's andthe passenger's three point seatbelt systems and is not a substi- tute for them. Therefore, your seat belts must be worn at alltimes while the vehicle is in mo-tion. The airbags deploy only incertain frontal impact conditionssevere enough to likely cause significant injury to the vehicle occupants.

B990A04Y-GAT PASSENGER PRESENCE DETECTION (If installed) The passenger presence detection system detects the presence of a pas-senger in the front seat. If no passen-ger is recognized on the front passen-ger seat, the deployment of the front passenger and/or side airbag and seat belt pretentioner will be inhibited.This system is designed primarily toprevent the replacement of airbag com-ponents that deploy needlessly in anaccident. NOTE: Luggage or other cargo heavier than 15 kg should not be placed on the passenger front seat. This can al-low the deployment of the frontpassenger and/or side air bag inthe case of an accident.
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 about6 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 immediatelyinspected by your Hyundaidealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turnthe ignition key to the "LOCK"position or remove the ignitionkey. Never remove or replace theair bag related fuse(s) when the ignition key is in the "ON" posi- tion. Failure to heed this warningwill cause the SRS SRI to illumi-nate.
WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dustwill be released throughout thevehicle. These conditions arenormal and are not hazardous. However, the fine dust generated during airbag deployment maycause skin irritation. Wash yourhands and face thoroughly withlukewarm water and a mild soapafter an accident in which the airbags were deployed.

CAUTION:
When installing a container of liq- uid air freshener inside a vehicle, do not place it near the instrument cluster nor on the instrument panelpad surface. If there is any leakagefrom the air freshener onto theseareas (Instrument cluster, instru-ment panel pad or air ventilator), it may damage these parts. If the liq- uid from air freshener does leakonto these areas, wash them withwater immediately.!
