the vehicle is moving. This could result
in loss of control or an accident causing

WARNING:
To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or a sudden stop,
both the driver's and passenger's seatback
should remain in an upright position while
the car is in motion. The protection pro-
vided by the seat belts and airbags may be
reduced significantly when the seatbacks
are reclined. There is a greater risk that the
seat occupants will slide under the belt
resulting in serious injury if a crash occurs
when the seatbacks are reclined. The seat
belt cannot provide full protection to an
occupant if the seatback is reclined.
B090D01NF-GATAdjusting Seatback AnglePull the upper portion of the control knob forward
or backward to recline the seatback to the
desired position. Release the control knob and
the seatback will remain in that position.
B090C01Y-AATSeat Cushion Height AdjustmentMove the front portion of the control knob up or
down to raise or lower the front part of the seat
cushion. Move the rear portion of the control
knob up or down to raise or lower the rear part
of the seat cushion.

B160C01A-AATKeep Belts Clean and DrySeat belts should be kept clean and dry. If belts
become dirty, they can be cleaned by using a
mild soap solution and warm water. Bleach, dye,
strong detergents or abrasives should not be
used because they may damage and weaken
the fabric.B160D01A-AATWhen to Replace Seat BeltsEntire in-use seat belt assembly or assemblies
should be replaced if the vehicle has been
involved in an accident. This should be done
even if no damage is visible. Additional ques-
tions concerning seat belt operation should be
directed to your Hyundai Dealer.
B170A01NF-GATHEIGHT ADJUSTABLE FRONT SEAT
SHOULDER BELTYou can adjust the height of the shoulder belt
anchor to one of 3 positions for maximum
comfort and safety.
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 ad-
juster button.

!
Release the button to lock the anchor into
position. Try sliding the height adjuster to make
sure that it has locked into position.
WARNING:
o The height adjuster must be in the locked
position when the vehicle is moving.
o The misadjustment of height of the
shoulder belt could reduce the effective-
ness of the seat belt in a crash.
