o A dirty belt should be cleanedwith neutral detergent in warm water. After rinsing in water, let itdry in the shade. Do not attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts because this affects their char-acteristics.
o Seat belts worn at the time of an
accident should not be reusedeven if they appear flawless, be- cause deteriorated belts cannot withstand another accident. Besure to replace the seat belt and mounting bolts with new ones.
o Never adjust the driver's seat while the vehicle is in motion.
o For technical reasons, the sec-
ond seat and third seat should not be folded down to make a bed while the vehicle is being driven.
o To protect you and your passen- gers in the event of an accident,it is most important that the seatbelts be worn correctly when you drive. o The seat belt will provide maxi-
mum protection for its wearer ifthe recliner seatback is placed in fully upright position.When the seatback is reclined, there is greater risk that the pas- senger will slide under the belt,especially in a forward impact accident, and may be injured by the belt or by striking the instru-ment panel or seatbacks.

SEAT BELTS
B360A01P-GAT To protect you and your passengers in the event of an accident, it is most important that the seat belts be worn correctly when you drive.
WARNING:
o One seat belt should be used by only one person. Doing other-wise can be dangerous.
o When driving with children, they
should be seated in the secondand third seats, and wear lap belts. For an infant, a children safety seat should be used.The regulations concerning driv- ing with children in the front seat may differ from country to coun-try. It is recommended that you obey the pertinent regulations.
o The seat belts must not be twisted
when worn.
o Check the belts for cuts, worn or
frayed webbing and for checked or deformed metallic parts. Re- place the belts if defective.

44CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
B230A03A-GAT (Minibus/Van) (If installed) Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always berestrained to minimize the risk of injury in an accident, sudden stop or sudden maneuver. According to accident sta-tistics, children are safer when prop- erly restrained in the rear seats than in the front seat. Larger children shoulduse one of the seat belts provided. You are required by law to use safety restraints for children. If small childrenride in your vehicle you must put them in a child restraint system (safety seat). Children could be injured in a crash iftheir restraints are not properly se- cured. For small children and babies, a child seat or infant seat must be used.Before buying a particular child re- straint system, make sure it fits your car seat and seat belts, and fits yourchild. Follow all the instructions pro- vided by the manufacturer when in- stalling the child restraint system.
!
NOTE:
o When the pre-tensioner seat belt is activated, there may be an ex- plosion noise. This noise is nor-mal and is not hazardous.
o Pre-tensioner seat belt is de-
signed to operate only when asufficiently severe impact occurs and it will be only operated once.
WARNING:
If the pre-tensioner seat belt was activated, never attempt to replace it by yourself. It must be replaced by an authorized Hyundai Dealer.B180B02X-GAT Pre-tensioner Seat Belt (If installed) Ordinarily the pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as E.L.R (Emergency Locking Retractor) type (When vehicles stop suddenly, thebelt will lock into the position. It will also lock if you try to lean forward too quickly.) .
However, when vehicles crash, the retractor rewinds the belt webbing. This will restrain the passenger move-ment quickly and also reduce the slack between passenger and belt webbing. B180B02A

!WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat. Never install a child or infant seat onthe front passenger's seat. Should an accident occur and cause the passenger side airbagto deploy, it could severely in- jure or kill an infant or child seated in an infant or child seat. Thus,only use a child restraint in the rear seat of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child re- straint system can become veryhot if it is left in a closed vehicle, be sure to check the seat coverand buckles before placing a child there.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, fasten it with asafety belt so that it will not be thrown forward in the case of asudden stop or an accident.
o Children who are too large to bein a child restraint should sit in the rear seat and be restrainedwith the available lap/shoulder belts.
o Always make sure that the shoul-
der belt portion of the outboardlap/shoulder belt is positioned midway over the shoulder, neveracross the neck. Moving the child closer to the center of the vehicle may help provide a good shoul-der belt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or the cen- ter seat lap belt must always bepositioned as low as possible on the child's hips and as snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, we recommend the useof an approved booster seat inthe rear seat in order to raise the child's seating height so that 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 may not pro-vide adequate security in an ac- cident.
o Never allow a child to be held in
a person's arms while they are ina moving vehicle, as this could result in serious injury to thechild in the event of an accident or a sudden stop. Holding a child in a moving vehicle does notprovide the child with any means of protection during an accident, even if the person holding thechild is wearing a seat belt.
o If the child restaint seat is not
anchored properly, the risk of achild being seriously injured or killed in a collision greatly in- creases.

Install the child restraint system, buckle theseat belt and allow the seat belt to take up any slack. Make sure that the lap portion of the belt is tight around thechild restraint system and the shoulder portion of the belt is positioned so that it cannot interfere with the child's heador neck. After installation of the child restraint system, try to move it in all directions to be sure the child restraintsystem is securely installed. B230G01L-1
To install a child restraint system in thecenter rear seat, extend the shoulder/lap belt entirely from its retractor until a "click" is felt. This will engage the seat belt retractor automatic lockingfeature, which allows the seat belt to retract but not extend.
