B180B01HP-GAT Pre-tensioner Seat Belt Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts. The purpose ofthe pre-tensioner is to make sure that the seat belts fit tightly against the occupant's body in certain frontal col-lisions.The pre-tensioner seat belts can beactivated alone or, where the frontalcollision is severe enough, together with the airbags. The pre-tensioner seat belt operatesin a similar way as an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) type of seatbelt. When the vehicle stops suddenly,or if the occupant tries to lean forwardtoo quickly, the seat belt retractor willlock into position. However, in certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will activate and pull the seat belt intotighter contact against the occupant'sbody.

o Although it is harmless, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation and should not be breathed forprolonged periods. Wash yourhands and face thoroughly after an accident in which the pre- tensioner seat belts were acti-vated.
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected withpre-tensioner seat belt, the SRSairbag warning light on theinstrument panel will blink for approximately 6 seconds after the ignition key has been turnedto the "ON" position, and then itshould turn off.
o If pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, this warning light will illuminate even if there is no malfunction of the SRSairbag.

NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front
passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated in certainfrontal collisions. The pre-tensioner seat belts can be acti-vated alone or, where the frontal collision is severe enough, to- gether with the airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts
are activated, a loud noise maybe heard and fine dust, whichmay appear to be smoke, may be visible in the passenger compart- ment. These are normal operat-ing conditions and are not haz-ardous. WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn cor- rectly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position.B180B02S

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.

B990B04Y-GAT Side Impact Airbag (If installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with a side airbag in each front seat. The purposeof the airbag is to provide the vehicle'sdriver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that offered by the seatbelt alone. The side impactairbags are designed to deploy onlyduring certain side impact collisions,depending on the crash severity, angle,speed and point of impact. The air bags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations. B990B02Y

WARNING:
The Passenger Presence Detection system is not intended to preventairbag deployment while a child isin the front passenger's seat. It is intended only as a means to reduce unnecessary collision damage re-pair expense by preventing airbagand seat belt pretensioner deploy-ment when the right front passen-ger seat is unoccupied. Deployment is still possible if only a few pounds are placed upon the seat. There-fore, children must not be trans-ported in the front seat. All childrenmust be seated in the rear seat andproperly restrained with the vehicle's restraint system or a child restraint system appropriate for thechild's size and weight.!
