1- 24 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 orby rendering the SRS inoperative.
o If components of the airbag system must be discarded, or if the vehicle must be
scrapped, certain safety preca utions must
be observed. Your Hyundai dealer knowsthese precautions and can give you the
necessary information. Failure to followthese precautions and procedures could
increase the risk of personal injury.
o If you sell your vehicle, be sure to inform the new owner of these important pointsand make certain that this manual is trans-ferred to the new owner.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked carpeting or water on flooring, youshouldn't try to start engine; have the car
towed to authorized Hyundai dealer.
WARNING:
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 childcould be severely injured by an airbagdeployment in case of an accident.
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a reward facing restraint on a seat protected by anairbag in front of it!
o Modification to SRS components or wir- ing, including the addition of any kind ofbadges to the pad covers or modifications
to the body structure, can adversely affectSRS performance and lead to possibleinjury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use only a soft, dry cloth or one which hasbeen moistened with plain water. Solventsor cleaners could adversely affect theairbag covers and proper deployment ofthe system.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steering wheel,instrument panel, and the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box,because any such object could cause harmif the vehicle is in a crash severe enoughto cause the airbags to inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

SB090E1-E Injured Persons A seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. For specific recom-mendations, the advice of a qualified MedicalPractioner should be sought.
WARNING: The folding rear seats are intended to allow the carriage of longer objects than couldotherwise be accommodated. Do not allowpassengers to sit on top of the folded-downseatback whilst the car is in motion since thefolded seat does not provide a suitable sittingfacility and no seat belts are available for use.Objects carried on the folded seatback shouldnot extend higher than the top of the frontseats and must be securely restrained toprevent injury or damage during sudden de-celeration.
SB090A1-E SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONSSeat belts should be worn at all times by all occupants front and rear. The possibility of injuryor the severity of injuries suffered in the event ofan accident will be greatly reduced by the wear-ing of seat belts.In addition the following recommendations shouldbe observed. SB090B1-E Babies/Small Children Babies and small children must be restrained using a restraint system specifically designed forthis purpose. Under no circumstances should achild be carried in the vehicle without the use ofa suitable restraint which meets the regulationsin force in the country where the vehicle is inoperation. SB090C1-E Larger Children Larger children should occupy the rear seat and be restrained at all times. The restraint may takethe form of a special safety belt or the originalfactory fitted seat belt used in conjunction with anapproved booster cushion depending upon thesize and weight of the child. Under no circum-stances should children be allowed to travelstanding, kneeling or lying on the seat.Never allow children to ride in the front passen-ger seat.SB090O1-E Pregnant WomenThe use of a seat belt is recommended for pregnant women. The seat belt should be wornas low and snugly as possible across the hips,not across the abdomen. A qualified MedicalPractitioner should be consulted for further infor-mation.
SB500A1-E REAR PARCEL SHELF Large or heavy items must not be placed upon the rear parcel shelf to prevent the possibility ofinjury arising from such items in the event ofimpact.
B140A01GK
SB090F1-E Seat Belt OccupancyThe seat belts are designed to be used by one seat occupant only. The use of a seat belt bymore than one person increases the levels ofinjury which may be sustained in the event of anaccident. SE090G1-E Do Not Lie Down To ensure that the maximum level of protection may be afforded by the seat belt system, allpassengers should be sitting in an upright posi-tion throughout the journey. The seat belt will beunable to afford maximum protection if the frontseats are at or near the fully reclined position.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
1- 14 shoulder belt must always be positioned as low as possible on the child's hips andas snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, Hyundai recommends the use of anapproved booster seat in the rear seat inorder to raise the child's seating height sothat the seat belt will properly fit the child.
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 maynot provide adequate security in an acci-dent.
o Never allow a child to be held in a person's arms while they are in a moving vehicle, asthis could result in serious injury to thechild in the event of an accident or asudden stop. Holding a child in a movingvehicle does not provide the child withany means of protection during an acci-dent, even if the person holding the childis wearing a seat belt.
o If the child restraint seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child being seri-ously injured or killed in a collision greatlyincreases.
WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in
the rear seat. Never install a child or infantseat on the front passenger's seat.Should an accident occur and cause thepassenger side airbag to deploy, it couldseverely injure or kill an infant or childseated in an infant or child seat. Thus, onlyuse a child restraint in the rear seat of yourvehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child restraint sys- tem can become very hot if it is left in aclosed vehicle, be sure to check the seatcover and buckles before placing a childthere.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, store it in the boot or fasten it with asafety belt so that it will not be thrownforward in the case of a sudden stop or anaccident.
o Children who are too large to be in a child restraint should sit in the rear seat and berestrained with the available lap/shoulderbelts. Never allow children to ride in thefront passenger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt portion of the outboard lap/shoulder beltis positioned midway over the shoulder,never across the neck or behind the back.Moving the child closer to the center of thevehicle may help provide a good shoulderbelt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/
B230A02GK-EAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMChildren riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be properly restrained tominimize the risk of injury in an accident, suddenstop or sudden maneuver.

B230F01GK
ISOFIX is a standardised method of fitting child seats that eliminates the need to use the stan-dard adult seat belt to secure the seat in thevehicle. This enables a much more secure andpositive location with the added benefit of easierand quicker installation. An ISOFIX-seat can only be installed if it has vehicle-specific approval in accordance with therequirements of ECE-R44. For your Hyundai,the Hyundai ISOFIX GR1 / Hyundai Duo / RömerISOFIX GR1 and the Römer Duo ISOFIX / BritaxDuo ISOFIX is approved according to the re-quirement ECE-R44. This seat has been testedextensively by Hyundai and is recommended foryour Hyundai.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT1- 17
NOTE: At present, this seat is the only one comply-ing with that provision. In case that othermanufacturers will furnish proof of a respec-tive certification, Hyundai is going to evalu-ate this seat carefully and will give a recom-mendation provided that seat complies to thelaw. Please ask your Hyundai dealer in thisrespect.
