belts. Unlatched metal latch platesor tabs may allow the child to reach the unretracted seat belts which may result in strangulationand a serious injury or death to the child in the child restraint.
o Do not mount more than one child
restraint to a single tether or achild restraint lower anchorage point. The improper increased loadmay cause the anchorage points or tether anchor to break, causing serious injury or death.
o Attach the ISOFIX or ISOFIX-com- patible child seat only to the ap-propriate locations shown in theillustration.
o Always follow the installation and
use instructions provided by themanufacturer of the child re- straint.
!WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint seat at the center of the rear seat using the vehicle's ISOFIX anchors. The ISOFIX anchors are only providedfor the left and right outboard rear seating positions. Do not misuse the ISOFIX anchors by attemptingto attach a child restraint seat in the middle of the rear seat to the ISOFIX anchors. In a crash, thechild seat ISOFIX attachments may not be strong enough to secure the child restraint seat properly inthe center of the rear seat and may break, causing serious injury or death.

NOTE:
o Both the driver's and frontpassenger's pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated in certainfrontal collisions. The pre- tensioner seat belts can be acti- vated with the airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise maybe heard and fine dust, whichmay appear to be smoke, may be visible in the passenger compart- ment. These are normal operat-ing conditions and are not haz- ardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust may cause skin irritationand should not be breathed for prolonged periods. Wash all ex-posed skin areas thoroughly af- ter an accident in which the pre- tensioner seat belts were activated.

The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists mainly of the following compo- nents, whose locations are shown in the illustration:
1. SRS airbag warning light

WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn cor- rectly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position. 4
!
In certain frontal collisions, the pre- tensioner will activate and pull the seatbelt into tighter contact against the occupant's body. The buckle pre- tensioner (which is installed in thebuckle) will also pull the seat belt into the buckle.
CAUTION:
Do not put anything near the buckle. Placing objects near the buckle can adversely affect the buckle pre- tensioner and may increase the riskof personal injury in the event of a collision. If the system senses excessive seat belt tension on the driver or passenger's seat belt when the pre-tensioner acti- vates, the load limiter inside the pre-tensioner will release some of the pres- sure on the affected seat belt.

WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is designed to work with, and be supplemental to, the driver's and the passenger's three point seatbelt systems and is not a substi- tute for them. Therefore, your seat belts must be worn at alltimes while the vehicle is in mo- tion. The airbags deploy only in certain frontal impact conditionssevere enough to likely cause significant injury to the vehicle occupants.

o The side impact airbag is supple- mental to the driver's and the passenger's seat belt systems and is not a substitute for them. Therefore your seat belts mustbe worn at all times while the vehicle is in motion. B990B01TG
Side airbag sensor
B990B01TG-GAT Side Impact Airbag (If Installed) Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impact airbag in each seat. The pur-pose of the airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and passengers with additional protection than that offeredby the seat belt alone. The side impact airbags are designed to deploy only during certain side impact collisions,depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. The side impact airbags are not designed todeploy in all side impact situations, collisions from the front or rear of the vehicle or in most rollover situations.
B990B02LZo Even though your vehicle is
equipped with the passenger's airbag ON/OFF switch, do not in-stall a child restraint system in the front passenger's seat. A child re- straint system must never beplaced in the front seat. Children who are too large for child re- straint systems should alwaysoccupy the rear seat and use the available lap/shoulder belts. Chil- dren are afforded the most safetyin the event of an accident when they are restrained by a proper restraint system in the rear seat.
o As soon as deactivation is no longer needed, reactivate thefront passenger's airbag. Important Safety Notes on the Side Impact Airbag system Following is a number of safety points concerning this system which should always be observed to ensure risk ofinjury is reduced in an accident.
