B230F01A-GAT Installation on Center Rear Seat Use the center seat belt for the rear to secure the child restraint system as illustrated. After instal- lation 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.
B230G01A-GAT Installation on the Outboard Rear Seats To install a child restraint system on the outboard rear seats, extend the shoulder/lap belt from its retractor. 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 re- straint system and the shoulder portion of the belt is positioned so that it cannot interfere with the child's head or neck. 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 thechild 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: Do not install any child restraint system in the front passenger seat. Should an accident occur and cause the passenger's 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.

WARNING:
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protectedby an airbag in front of it.
o Modification to SRS components or wir-
ing, including the addition of any kind of badges to the pad covers or modifications to the body structure, can adversely affect SRS performance and lead to possible injury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use
only a soft, dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plain water. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deployment of the system. o No objects should be placed over or near
the airbag modules on the steering wheel, instrument panel, and the front passen- ger'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 inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must be re- placed 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.
o A child restraint system must never be
placed in the front seat. The infant or child could be severely injured by an airbag deployment in case of an accident.
o If components of the airbag system must
be discarded, or if the vehicle must be scrapped, certain safety precautions must be observed. Your Hyundai dealer knows these precautions and can give you the necessary information. Failure to follow these precautions and procedures could increase the risk of personal injury.
o If you sell your vehicle, make certain that
this manual is transferred 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.
o Do not replace the bumper or the bumper
guard with the one other than the Hyundai genuine parts. Otherwise, it can adversely affect SRS performance and lead to unex- pected injury.

B260J01S-GAT Charging System Warning Light
The charging system warning light should come on when the ignition is turned on, then go out when the engine is running. If the light stays on while the engine is running, there is a malfunction in the electrical charging system. If the light comes on while you are driving, stop, turn off the engine and check under the hood. First, make certain the generator drive belt is in place. If it is, check the tension of the belt. And then, have the system checked by your Hyundai dealer. CAUTION: If the drive belt (generator belt) is loosen, broken, or mission while the vehicle is driv- ing, there may be a serious malfunction, en- gine could overheat because this belt also drives the water pump.

The cruise indicator light in the instrument cluster is illuminated only when the vehicle cruising speed has been set using the control switch on the steering wheel. The indicator light does not illuminate when the main cruise control switch is activated. Information on the use of cruise control may be found on page 1-64.
The brake fluid level warning light indicates thatthe brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder is low and hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should be added. After adding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the car should be immediately and carefully driven to a Hyundai dealer for inspection. If further trouble is experienced, the vehicle should not be driven at all but taken to a dealer by a professional towing service or some other safe method. Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal braking systems. This means you still have brak- ing on two wheels even if one of the dual systems should fail. With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal pressure are required to stop the car. Also, the car will not stop in as short a distance with only half of the brake system work- ing. If the brakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional engine braking and stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so.

WARNING: If you suspect brake trouble, have your brakes checked by a Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. Driving your car with a problem in either the brake electrical system or brake hydraulic system is dangerous, and could result in serious injury or death. The brake vacuum warning light should come on when the vacuum level in brake booster descends to about 275 mmHg or below. The brake system is designed to stop the vehicle with reserve assist if brake pedal is held down. This reserve is greatly reduced each time you release the brake. Without vacuum assist your vehicle can still be stopped by pushing much harder on brake pedal, however the stopping distance may be much longer. If the light comes on at any other time, you should slow the vehicle and bring it to a complete stop in a safe location off the roadway.Water temperature
