BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI
During the First 1,200 Miles (2,000
Km)
No formal “break-in” procedure is required with
your new Hyundai. However, you can contrib-
ute to the economical operation and durability of
your Hyundai by observing the following recom-
mendations during the first 1,200 miles (2,000
km).
o Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88 km/h).
o While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm,
or revolutions per minute) between 2,000
rpm and 4,000 rpm.
o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start quick-
ly or depress the accelerator pedal fully.
o For the first 200 miles (300 km), try to avoid
hard stops.
o Don't lug the engine (in other words, don't
drive so slowly in too high a gear that the
engine "bucks"-shift to a lower gear).
o Whether going fast or slow, vary your speed
from time to time.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3 min-
utes at one time.
o Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200 miles
(2,000 km) of operation.

Record Your Key Number
A code number is stamped on the key number
plate that came with the keys to your Hyundai.
This key number plate should be kept in a safe
place, not in the vehicle. The key number should
also be recorded in a place where it can be found
in an emergency.
If you need additional keys, or if you should lose
your keys, your authorized Hyundai dealer can
make new keys if you can supply the key num-
ber.

DOOR LOCKS
WARNING:
o Unlocked doors can be dangerous. Be-
fore you drive away (especially if there
are children in the car), be sure that all
the doors are securely closed and locked
so that the doors cannot be inadvertently
opened from the inside. This helps as-
sure that doors will not be opened acci-
dentally. Also, when combined with the
proper use of seat belts, locking the doors
helps keep occupants from being ejected
from the car in case of an accident.
o Before opening the door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.

KEYS
SSA1030A
For greater convenience, the same key oper-
ates all the locks in your Hyundai. However,
because the doors can be locked without a key,
carrying a spare key is recommended in case
you accidentally lock one key inside the car.

SEAT BELTS Rear Seat 3-Point Sys-
tem with Combination Locking Re-
tractor
To Fasten Your Belt
Combination retractor type seat belts are in-
stalled in the rear seat positions to help accom-
modate the installation of child restraint sys-
tems. Although a combination retractor is also
installed in the front passenger seat position,
Hyundai strongly recommends that children al-
ways be seated in the rear seat. NEVER place
any infant restraint system in the front seat of
the vehicle.
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 securing a child restraint,
the seat belt operates in the same way as
driver's seat belt (Emergency Locking Retrac-
tor Type). It automatically adjusts to the proper
length only after the lap belt portion of the seat

sengers 3-Point System with Emer-
gency Locking Retractor
To Fasten Your BeltYou 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 the most
effective protection. The shoulder portion should
be adjusted so that it lies across your chest and
midway over your shoulder nearest the door
and not your neck.
To adjust the height of the seat belt anchor,
lower or raise the height adjuster into an appro-
priate position. To raise the height adjuster, pull
it up. To lower it, push it down while pressing
the height adjuster button.
Release the button to lock the anchor into
position. Try sliding the release button to make
sure that it has locked into the position.
WARNING:o The height adjuster must be in the locked
position when the vehicle is moving.
o The misadjustment of height of the shoul-
der belt could reduce the effectiveness
of the seat belt in a crash.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.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper
length only after the lap belt portion is adjusted
manually 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, the belt will
lock into position. It will also lock if you try to
lean forward too quickly. Check to make sure
that the belt is properly locked and that the belt
is not twisted.
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
warning chime will sound for approximately
six seconds.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
(AIRBAG) SYSTEM (SRS) (If Installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of
the system's presence are the letters "SRS AIR
BAG" embossed on the ornament in the steer-
ing 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
steering 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.
NOTE:o Both the driver's and front passenger's
pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated
in certain frontal collisions. The pre-
tensioner seat belts can be activated alone
or, where the frontal collision is severe
enough, together with the airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are
activated, a loud noise may be heard and
fine dust, which may appear to be smoke,
may be visible in the passenger compart-
ment. These are normal operating condi-
tions and are not hazardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should not
be breathed for prolonged periods. Wash
your hands and face thoroughly after an
accident in which the pre-tensioner seat
belts were activated.
CAUTION:o The control module that activates the
SRS airbag controls the pre-tensioner
seat belt also.
o If there is some malfunction in the pre-
tensioner seat belt circuit, the warning
light will illuminate even if there is no
malfunction in the SRS airbag system. If
the SRS airbag warning light does not
illuminate or illuminates continuously
when the ignition key is turned to "ON",
or if it remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 6 seconds, or if it illu-
minates while the vehicle is being driven,please have an authorized Hyundai deal-
er inspect the pre-tensioner seat belt or
SRS airbag system as soon as possible.
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
during 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 ac-
tivation and serious injury.
o Always wear the seat belts when driving
or riding in a motor vehicle.

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.
Passanger's Airbag
B240B01GK
CAUTION:Do not install or place any accessories (drink
holder, cassette holder, sticker, etc) on the
front passenger's panel above the glove box
in a vehicle with a passenger's air bag. Such
objects may become dangerous projectiles
and cause injury if the passenger's air bag
inflates.
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly
into the pad covers will separate under pres-
sure from the expansion of the airbags. Further
opening of the covers then allows full inflation of
the airbags. The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on
the instrument panel will blink for about 6 sec-
onds after the ignition key is turned to the "ON"
position or after the engine is started, after
which the SRI should go out.

SRS Components and Functions
The SRS consists of the following components:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- Knee Bolster
- 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
to require airbag deployment.
