!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.
NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated in certainfrontal collisions. The pre- tensioner seat belts can be acti- vated with the airbags. The pre-tensioners will be activated under these conditions even if the seat belts are not being worn at thetime of the collision.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts
are activated, a loud noise may beheard and fine dust, which may appear to be smoke, may be vis- ible in the passenger compart-ment. These are normal operating conditions and are not hazard- ous.
B180B01A-EAT Pre-Tensioner Seat Belt
HXG229-R
Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with driver's and front passenger's pre- tensioner seat belts. The purpose of thepre-tensioner is to make sure that the seat belts fit tightly against the occupant's body in certain frontal colli-sions. The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated with the airbags.The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as an Emergency Lock- ing Retractor (ELR) type of seat belt.When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant tries to lean forward too quickly, the seat belt retractor will lockinto position. However, in certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will acti- vate and pull the seat belt into tightercontact against the occupant's body. The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists mainly of the following compo- nents. Their locations are shown in the illustration.
1. SRS airbag warning light
2. Seat belt pre-tensioner assembly
3. SRS control module HTB198-D

Wash your hands and face thoroughly after an acci- dent in which the pre-tensionerseat belts were activated. or if it illuminates whilst the ve- hicle is being driven, please have a Hyundai authorised repairer in-spect the pre-tensioner seat belt or SRS airbag system as soon as possible.
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected with the pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warning light on theinstrument panel will blink for approximately 6 seconds after the ignition key has been turned to the "ON" position and then it should turn off.
o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, this warninglight will illuminate even if theSRS system is not functioning.

o Pre-tensioners are designed to op- erate only one time. After activa- tion, pre-tensioner seat belts must be replaced. All seat belts, of any type, should always be replaced after they have been worn during acollision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assem-
bly mechanisms become hot dur-ing activation. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies for several minutes after they havebeen activated.

replaced by a Hyundai authorisedrepairer. o Do not tamper with or disconnect
SRS wiring, or other components of the SRS system. Doing so couldresult in injury, due to accidental firing of the airbags or by render- ing the SRS inoperative.
