Adjusting Your Seat Belt
You should place the belt as low as possible
on your hips, not on your waist. If the belt is located too high on your body, you could slideunder it in case of accident or a sudden stop.
SB090P1-E
SEAT BELTS (3-Point Type) To Fasten The Seat Belt
SSD1090P
The seat belts are fastened by pulling the belt
buckle towards the seat belt stalk and insert- ing the metal tongue of the buckle into thestalk. The buckle should be firmly pressedinto the stalk until locked which will be indi-cated by an audible "click".
The length of the seat belt webbing will be
automatically adjusted by the seat belt mech-anism to allow the wearer maximum freedom WARNING:
o The height adjuster must be in the locked position when the vehicle is moving.
o The misadjustment of height of the shoulder belt could reduce the effec-tiveness of the seat belt in a crash.
B170A01E-D
B170A04A-EAT HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE FRONT SEAT SHOULDER BELT (Not all models) You can adjust the height of the shoulder belt anchor to one of the 4 positions. If the height of the adjusting seat belt is too near your neck, you will not be getting themost effective protection. The shoulder por-tion should be adjusted so that it lies acrossyour chest and midway over your shouldernearest the door and not your neck. To adjust the height of the seat belt anchor, lower or raise the height adjuster into anappropriate position. To raise the height ad-juster, pull it up. To lower it, push it down whilepressing the height adjuster button. Release the button to lock the anchor into position. Try sliding the release button tomake sure that it has locked into the position.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
1- 16 o Since a safety belt or child restraint
system can become very hot if it is left in a closed vehicle, be sure to check theseat cover and buckles before placing achild there.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, fasten it with a safety belt so thatit will not be thrown forward in the caseof a sudden stop or an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a child restraint should still sit in the rearseat and be restrained with the avail-able lap/shoulder belts. Never allowchildren to ride in the front passengerseat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt portion of the outboard lap/shoulder beltis positioned midway over the shoul-der, never across the neck or behindthe back. Moving the child closer to thecenter of the vehicle may help provide agood shoulder belt fit. The lap belt por-tion of the lap/shoulder belt or the cen-ter seat lap belt must always be posi-tioned as low as possible on the child'ships and as snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, we recommend the use of anapproved booster seat in the rear seatin order to raise the child's seatingheight so that the seat belt will properlyfit the child.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.
B230A03P-EAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be properly restrainedto minimize the risk of injury in an accident,sudden stop or sudden maneuver. Accordingto accident statistics, children are safer whenproperly restrained in the rear seats than inthe front seat. Larger children should use oneof the seat belts provided. You are required by law to use safety re- straints for children. If small children ride inyour vehicle you must put them in a childrestraint system (safety seat). Children could be injured or killed in a crash if their restraints are not properly secured. Forsmall children and babies, a child seat orinfant seat must be used. Before buying aparticular child restraint system, make sure itfits your car and seat belts, and fits your child.Follow all the instructions provided by themanufacturer when installing the child restraintsystem. 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 and cause the passenger side airbag to deploy, itcould severely injure or kill an infant orchild seated in an infant or child seat.Thus, only use a child restraint in therear seat of your vehicle.
ZB090Y1-A To Release the Seat Belt
B220C01FC

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 10 C300B01O-GAT
TCS ON Mode In the TCS ON mode, the indicator in the instrument cluster will not be illuminated. NOTE:
1) Turn off the engine. Then restart the engine, and the TCS mode will auto- matically turn "ON".
2) When the traction control is operating properly, you can feel a slight pulsationin the vehicle. This is only the effect ofbrake control and indicates nothingunusual. C300D02O-GAT
Indicator and Warning
The indicator should illuminate when the igni-tion key is turned to "ON" or "START", butshould go out after three seconds. If the indicator does not illuminate, have it checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer. Should there be any unusual conditions in the device, TCS illuminates as a warning.If TCS illuminates, pull your car to a safeplace and stop the engine. Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS indicator goes out. If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your carchecked by an authorized Hyundai dealer. NOTE: When TCS illuminates, traction control is automatically deactivated for safety.
Driving hints
TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure
to decelerate the car sufficiently before enter-ing curves.
CAUTION: When the TCS indicator blinks, SLIP con-
trol has been activated. It also means that the road is slippery or your car is acceler-ating excessively. In this situation, releasefoot pressure from the accelerator pedaland maintain moderate speed.
WARNING: Traction control is only a driving aid; all
normal precautions for driving in inclem- ent weather and on slippery driving sur-faces should be observed. 3) When the engine starts, a click is heard
from the engine compartment; however,this is only the sound of traction controlbeing checked.
4) When moving out of the mud or fresh snow, pressing the accelerator pedalmay not cause the engine speed toincrease.
The braking distance for cars equippedwith an anti-lock braking system may belonger than for those without it in thefollowing road conditions.
o Driving on rough, gravel or snow-cov-
ered roads.
o Driving with tyre chains installed.
o Driving on roads where the road sur- face is pitted or has different surface height.
These roads should be driven at reducedspeeds. The safety features of an ABSequipped vehicle should not be tested byhigh speed driving or cornering. This couldendanger the safety of yourself or others.
C300A01O-EAT
BRAKE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (BTCS) (Not all models)
On slippery road surfaces, the traction control
system (TCS) limits the drive wheels from spinning excessively, thus helping the car toaccelerate. It also provides sufficient drivingforce and steering performance as the carturns at accelerated speeds. SLIP Control
Limits the drive wheels from spinning exces-
sively during starting or while making acceler- ated turns on slippery roads to avoid losingthe driving force of the front wheels.
