2003 Hyundai Accent seats

1- 24 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
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.
NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint sys-
tem, read the instructions supplied by the
child restraint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as de-
scribed, have the system checked imme-
diately by your authorized Hyundai dealer.
WARNING:o If the retractor is not in the Automatic
Locking mode, the child restraint system
can move when your vehicle turns or
stops abruptly.
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.
!
To 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 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 auto-
matic locking feature by trying to extend web-
bing out of the retractor. If the retractor is in the
automatic locking mode, the belt will be locked.

Installation on Rear Seat Center
Position
Use the center seat belt for the rear seat to
secure the child restraint system as illustrated.
After installation of the child restraint system,
rock the child seat back and forth, and side to
side to ensure that it is properly secured by the
seat belt.
If the child seat moves, readjust the length of the
seat belt. Then, if equipped, insert the child
restraint tether strap hook into the child restraint
hook holder and tighten to secure the seat.
Always refer to the child restraint system
manufacturer's recommendation before install-
ing the child restraint system in your vehicle.

o Front airbags are not intended to de-
ploy in side-impact, rear-impact or
rollover crashes. In addition, airbags
will not deploy in frontal crashes below
the deployment threshold speed.
o The driver should sit back as far as
possible while still maintaining control
of the vehicle. If you are sitting too
close to the airbag, it can cause death
or serious injury when it inflates.

The dual-stage SRS uses a collection of sen-
sors to gather information about the driver's
and front passenger's seat position, the
driver's and front passenger's seat belt usage
and impact severity.
The driver's and front passenger's seat posi-
tion sensors determine if the seats are fore or
aft of a reference position. Similarly, the seat
belt usage sensors determine if the driver and
front passenger's seat belts are fastened.
These sensors provide the ability to control
the SRS deployment's pressure based on how
close the driver's seat is to the steering wheel,
how close the passenger's seat is to the
instrument panel and whether or not the seat
belts are fastened.
The dual-stage airbags offer the ability to control
the airbag inflation with two pressure levels. A
lower pressure level is provided for moderate-
severity impacts. A higher-pressure level is pro-
vided for more severe impacts.
NOTE:o Be sure to read information about the
SRS on the labels provided on the back-
side of the sun visor and in the glove box.
o Dual-stage inflating airbags are combined
with pre-tensioner seat belts to help pro-
vided enhanced occupant protection in
frontal crashes. Front airbags are not in-
tended to deploy in light collisions in
which protection can be provided by the
pre-tensioner seat belt.
WARNING:o As its name implies, the SRS is de-
signed to work with, and be supple-
mental to, the driver's and the
passenger's three point seat belt sys-
tems and is not a substitute for them.
Therefore, your seat belts must be worn
at all times while the vehicle is in mo-
tion. The airbags deploy only in certain
frontal impact conditions severe
enough to cause significant injury to
the vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the
airbags only when an impact is suffi-
ciently severe and when the impact
angle is less than 30° from the forward
longitudinal axis of the vehicle and will
not deploy in side, rear or rollover im-
pacts. Additionally, the airbags will only
deploy once. Thus, seat belts must be
worn at all times.
