FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 17
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 secur-
ing a child restraint, the seat belt operates in
the same way as the driver's seat belt (Emer-
gency Locking Retractor Type). It automati-
cally 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 installa-
tion 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 1-24.
NOTE:Although the combination retractor provides
the same level of protection for seated pas-
sengers in either emergency or automatic
locking modes, it is recommended that seated
passengers use the emergency locking fea-
ture for improved convenience. The auto-
matic locking function is intended to facilitate
child restraint installation. To convert from
the automatic locking feature to the emer-
gency locking operation mode, allow the un-
buckled seat belt to fully retract. To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retrac-
tor and insert the metal tab into the buckle.
There will be an audible "click" when the tab
locks into the buckle.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper
length only after the lap belt is adjusted manual-
ly so that it fits snugly around your hips. If you
lean forward in a slow, easy motion, the belt will
extend and let you move around. If there is a
sudden stop or impact, however, the belt will
lock into position. It will also lock if you try to
lean forward too quickly.
NOTE:If the driver's seat belt is not fastened when
the ignition key is in the "ON" position, the
seat belt warning light will flash and the warn-
ing chime will sound for approximately six
seconds.
WARNING:o For maximum restraint system protec-
tion, seat belts must always be used when-
ever the car is moving.
o Seat belts are most effective when
seatbacks are in the upright position.
o Children must always be seatbelted in
the rear seats. Never allow children to
ride in the front passenger seat.
o The shoulder belt should be positioned
midway over the shoulder nearest the
door for the most effective protection.
Never wear the seat belt under the arm
nearest the door. Wearing the belt under
the arm nearest the door could cause
serious or fatal injuries in an accident.
o Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A twist-
ed belt can't do its job as well. In a colli-
sion, it could even cut into you. Be sure
the belt 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.

DUAL-STAGE SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM (SRS)
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Dual-stage
Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System. The
indications of the system's presence are the
letters "SRS AIRBAG" embossed on the airbag
pad cover in the steering wheel and the
passenger's side front panel pad above the
glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed
under the pad covers in the center of the steer-
ing wheel and the passenger's side front panel
above the glove box. The purpose of the SRS is
to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front
passenger with additional protection than that
offered by the seat-belt system alone, in case of
a frontal impact of sufficient severity.
B240A03A
Driver's Airbag
WARNING:o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate
only one time. After activation, pre-
tensioner seat belts must be replaced. All
seat belts, of any type, should always be
replaced after they have been worn dur-
ing a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly
mechanisms become hot during activa-
tion. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies for several minutes after
they have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or replace the
pre-tensioner seat belts yourself. This
must be done by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt
assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or repair the
pre-tensioner seat belt system in any
manner.
o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies, and failure to heed
the warnings to not strike, modify, in-
spect, replace, service or repair the pre-
tensioner seat belt assemblies may lead
to improper operation or inadvertent acti-
vation and serious injury.
o Always wear the seat belts when driving
or riding in a motor vehicle.
!CAUTION:o Because the sensor that activates the
SRS airbag is connected with the pre-
tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warn-
ing light on the instrument panel will
blink for approximately 6 seconds after
the ignition key has been turned to the
"ON" position, and then it should turn off.
o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not work-
ing properly, this warning light will illumi-
nate even if there is no malfunction of the
SRS airbag system.
If the SRS airbag warning light does not
illuminate when the ignition key is turned
to "ON", or if it remains illuminated after
blinking for approximately 6 seconds, or
if it illuminates while the vehicle is being
driven, please have an authorized Hyundai
dealer inspect the pre-tensioner seat belt
or SRS airbag system as soon as pos-
sible.

SRS Components and Functions
The SRS consists of the following compo-
nents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- Knee Bolster
- Pre-tensioner seat belt
- Front impact sensors
- Driver's and front passenger's seat belt usage
sensors
- Driver's and front passenger's seat position
sensors
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elements
while the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontal
or near-frontal impact is severe enough t o r e -
quire airbag deployment.
B240B01L
WARNING:o No objects should be placed over or
near the airbag modules on the steer-
ing wheel, instrument panel, and the
front passenger's panel above the glove
box, because any such object could
cause 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 authorized Hyundai
dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the SRS
system. Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental firing of the airbags
or by rendering the SRS inoperative.
o Do not install a child restraint system in
the front passenger seat position. A
child restraint system must never be
placed in the front seat. The infant or
child could be severely injured or killed
by an airbag deployment in case of an
accident.
o Do not allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat. If older children (teen-
agers and older) must ride in the front
seat, make sure they are always prop-
erly belted and that the seat is moved
back as far as possible.WARNING:o For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, all occupants includ-
ing the driver should always wear their
seat belts whether or not an airbag is
also provided at their seating position
to minimize the risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a crash. Do not sit
or lean unnecessarily close to the airbag
while the vehicle is in motion.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy
very rapidly to provide protection in a
crash. If an occupant is out of position
because of not wearing a seat belt, the
airbag may forcefully contact the occu-
pant causing serious or fatal injuries.

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 29
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on
the instrument panel will blink for about 6
seconds after the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position or after the engine is started,
after which the SRI should go out.
The airbag modules are located both in the
center of the steering wheel and in the front
passenger's panel above the glove box. When
the SRSCM detects a considerable impact to
the front of the vehicle, it will automatically
deploy the airbags.
A fully inflated airbag in combination with a
properly worn seat belt slows the driver's or
the passenger's forward motion, thus reduc-
ing the risk of head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the airbag immediately
starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain
forward visibility.
B240B02L
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly
into the pad covers will separate under pres-
sure from the expansion of the airbags. Fur-
ther opening of the covers then allows full
inflation of the airbags.
B240B03L
CAUTION:When installing a container of liquid air
freshener inside the vehicle, do not place it
near the instrument cluster nor on the in-
strument panel surface. If there is any leak-
age from the air freshener onto these areas
(instrument cluster, instrument panel or air
ventilator), it may damage these parts. If the
liquid from the air freshener does leak onto
these areas, wash them with water immedi-
ately.
