B150B01Y-GAT Infant or Small ChildSome countries require the use of child restraint
systems for infants and small children. Whetherthis is required by law or not, it is stronglyrecommended that a child restraint seat or infantrestraint system be used for infants or smallchildren weighing less than 18 kilograms (40pounds). NOTE: Small children are best protected in an acci-
dent when properly restrained by a childrestraint system. B150C02A-AAT Larger ChildrenChildren who are too large for child restraint systems should always occupy the rear seat anduse the available lap/shoulder belts. The lapportion should be fastened snug on the hips andas low as possible. Check belt fit periodically. Achild's squirming could put the belt out of posi-tion. Children are afforded the most safety in theevent of an accident when they are restrained bya proper restraint system in the rear seat. If alarger child (over age 13) must be seated in thefront seat, the child should be securely restrainedby the available lap/shoulder belt and the seatshould be placed in the rearmost position. Chil-dren under the age of 13 should be restrainedsecurely in the rear seat. NEVER place a childunder the age of 13 in the front seat. NEVERplace a rear facing child seat in the front seat ofa vehicle.
B150E01A-AAT Injured Person A seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. When this is neces-sary, you should consult a physician for recom-mendations. B150F01A-AAT One Person Per Belt Two people (including children) should never attempt to use a single seat belt. This couldincrease the severity of injuries in case of anaccident. B150G01A-AAT Do Not Lie DownTo reduce the chance of injuries in the event of an accident and to achieve maximum effectivenessof the restraint system, all passengers should besitting up and the front seats should be in anupright position when the car is moving. A seatbelt cannot operate properly if the person is lyingdown in the rear seat or if the front seat is in areclined position.
B150D01A-AAT Pregnant WomenThe use of a seat belt is recommended for pregnant women to lessen the chance of injury inan accident. When a seat belt is used, the lap beltportion should be placed as low and snugly aspossible on the hips, not across the abdomen.For specific recommendations, consult a physi-cian.
WARNING:Sitting in a reclined position or lying downwhen your vehicle is in motion can be dan-gerous. Even if you buckle up, your seat beltscan't do their job when you're reclined.The shoulder belt can't do its job because itwon't be against your body. Instead, it will bein front of you. In a crash you could go into itwith great force, receiving serious neck orother injuries.The lap belt can't do its job either. In a crashthe belt could go up over your abdomen. Thebelt forces would be applied there, not at yourstrong pelvic bones.This could cause serious internal injuries.For proper protection when the vehicle is inmotion, have the seatback upright. Then sitwell back in the seat and wear your seat beltproperly. See page 1-21. B160A01A-AAT CARE OF SEAT BELTS Seat belt systems should never be disassem- bled or modified. In addition, care should betaken to assure that seat belts and belt hardwareare not damaged by seat hinges, doors or otherabuse. WARNING: When you return the rear seatback to itsupright position after the rear seatback wasfolded down, be careful not to damage theseat belt webbing or buckle. Be sure that thewebbing or buckle does not get caught orpinched in the rear seat.

B230A03P-GAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (If Installed) Children 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. According to accidentstatistics, children are safer when properly re-strained in the rear seats than in the front seat.Larger children not in a child restraint should useone of the seat belts provided.You are required by law to use safety restraintsfor children. If small children ride in your vehicleyou must put them in a child restraint system(safety seat).Children could be injured or killed in a crash iftheir restraints are not properly secured. Forsmall children and babies, a child seat or infantseat must be used. Before buying a particularchild restraint system, make sure it fits your carand seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all theinstructions provided by the manufacturer wheninstalling the child restraint system.
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 the
passenger's side airbag to deploy, it couldseverely injure or kill an infant or childseated in an infant or child seat. Thus,only use a child restraint in the rear seat ofyour vehicle.
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, fasten it with a safety belt so that itwill not be thrown forward in the case of asudden stop or an accident.
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/shoulder belt or the center seat lap beltmust always be positioned as low as pos-sible on the child's hips and as snug aspossible. 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.

B230D03E-GAT Securing a Child Restraint System with "ISOFIX" System and "Tether Anchor-age" System 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.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. On each side of the rear seat, between the cushion and backrest, are located a pair of ISOFIXanchorage points together with a top tether mount-ing on the luggage compartment. During theinstalling, the seat has to be engaged at theanchorage-points in a way you can hear it click-ing (check by pulling!) and has to be fixed with theTop Tether-belt on the belonging point in theluggage-compartment. The installing and the useof a child-seat has to be done according to theinstalling-manual, which is added to the ISOFIX-seat.

B240B01L
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 elementswhile the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontalor near-frontal impact is severe enough to re-quire airbag deployment. The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blink for about 6 secondsafter the ignition key is turned to the "ON" positionor after the engine is started, after which the SRIshould go out.
