Seat belt precautions
Infant or small childAll 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific require-
ments in your state. Child and/or infant
safety seats must be properly placed and
installed in the rear seat. Information
about the use of these restraints begins
on page 3-71.
✽ ✽
NOTICESmall children are best protected from
injury in an accident when properly
restrained in the rear seat by a child
restraint system that meets the require-
ments of the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards. Before buying any
child restraint system, make sure that it
has a label certifying that it meets
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
213. The restraint must be appropriate
for your child's height and weight.
Check the label on the child restraint for
this information. See page 3-71.
SEAT BELTS
WARNING
All occupants of the vehicle must
wear their seat belts at all times.
Seat belts and child restraints
reduce the risk of serious or fatal
injuries for all occupants in the
event of a collision or sudden stop.
Without a seat belt, occupants
could be shifted too close to a
deploying air bag, strike the interior
structure or be thrown from the
vehicle. Properly worn seat belts
greatly reduce these hazards.
Even with advanced air bags,
unbelted occupants can be severe-
ly injured by a deploying air bag.
Always follow the precautions
about seat belts, air bags and occu-
pant seat contained in this manual.
WARNING
Every person in your vehicle needs
to be properly restrained at all
times, including infants and chil-
dren. Never hold a child in your
arms or lap when riding in a vehicle.
The violent forces created during a
crash will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against
the interior. Always use a child
restraint appropriate for your
child's height and weight, see page
3-71.

Features of your vehicle60 3Larger childrenChildren who are too large for child
restraint systems should always occupy
the rear seat and use the available
lap/shoulder belts. The lap portion should
be fastened snug on the hips and as low
as possible. Check belt fit periodically. A
child's squirming could put the belt out of
position. Children are afforded the most
safety in the event of an accident when
they are restrained by a proper restraint
system in the rear seat. If a larger child
(over age 13) must be seated in the front
seat, the child should be securely
restrained by the available lap/shoulder
belt and the seat should be placed in the
rearmost position. Children under the
age of 13 should be restrained securely
in the rear seat. NEVER place a child
under the age of 13 in the front seat.
NEVER place a rear facing child seat in
the front seat of a vehicle.If the shoulder belt portion slightly touch-
es the child’s neck or face, try placing the
child closer to the center of the vehicle. If
the shoulder belt still touches their face
or neck they need to be returned to a
child restraint system. In addition, after-
market devices are available from inde-
pendent manufacturers which help pull
the shoulder belt down and away from
the child’s face or neck.
Pregnant womenThe use of a seat belt is recommended
for pregnant women to lessen the chance
of injury in an accident. When a seat belt
is used, the lap belt portion should be
placed as low and snugly as possible on
the hips, not across the abdomen. For
specific recommendations, consult a
physician.Injured personA seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
When this is necessary, you should con-
sult a physician for recommendations.One person per beltTwo people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt.
This could increase the severity of
injuries in case of an accident.
WARNING
- Shoulder belts
on small children
 Never allow a shoulder belt to be
in contact with a child’s neck or
face while the vehicle is in
motion.
 If safety belts are not properly
worn and adjusted on children,
there is a risk of death or serious
injury.

Features of your vehicle
✽ ✽
NOTICEIf the driver's safety belt is not fastened
when the key is turned ON or if it is dis-
connected after the key is turned ON,
the safety belt warning light will blink
until the belt is fastened.
If the driver's safety belt is not fastened
when the key is turned ON or if it is
unfastened after the key is ON, the safe-
ty belt warning chime will sound for
approximately 6 seconds.
Seat belts - Front passenger and
rear seat 3-point system with
combination locking retractorTo fasten your belt Combination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child
restraint systems. Although a combina-
tion retractor is also installed in the front
passenger seat position, Hyundai strong-
ly recommends that children always be
seated in the rear seat. NEVER place
any infant restraint system in the front
seat of the vehicle.
This type of seat belt combines the fea-
tures of both an emergency locking
retractor seat belt and an automatic lock-
ing retractor seat belt. To fasten your seat
belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert
the metal tab into the buckle. There will
be an audible "click" when the tab locks
into the buckle. When not securing a
child restraint, the seat belt operates in
the same way as the driver's seat belt
(Emergency Locking Retractor Type). It
automatically adjusts to the proper length
only after the lap belt portion of the seat
belt is adjusted manually so that it fits
snugly around your hips.When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of a
child restraint system, the seat belt oper-
ation changes to allow the belt to retract,
but not to extend (Automatic Locking
Retractor Type). See page 3-72.
✽ ✽
NOTICEAlthough the combination retractor
provides the same level of protection for
seated passengers in either emergency
or automatic locking modes, it is recom-
mended that seated passengers use the
emergency locking feature for improved
convenience. The automatic locking
function is intended to facilitate child
restraint installation. To convert from
the automatic locking feature to the
emergency locking operation mode,
allow the unbuckled seat belt to fully
retract.
WARNING
 For maximum restraint system
protection, the seat belts must
always be used whenever the car
is moving.
 Seat belts are most effective
when seatbacks are in the upright
position.

Features of your vehicle
Children riding in the car should sit in the
rear seat and must always be properly
restrained to minimize the risk of injury in
an accident, sudden stop or sudden
maneuver. According to accident statis-
tics provided by the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seats than in the
front seat. Larger children not in a child
restraint should use one of the seat belts
provided.
All 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific require-
ments in your state. Child and/or infant
safety seats must be properly placed and
installed in the rear seat. You must use a
commercially available child restraint
system that meets the requirements of
the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards (FMVSS).
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured. For small children and babies, a
child seat or infant seat must be used.
Before buying a particular child restraint
system, make sure it fits your car seat
and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow
all the instructions provided by the man-
ufacturer when installing the child
restraint system.CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
WARNING
 A child restraint system must be
placed in the rear seat. Never
install a child or infant seat on the
front passenger's seat. Should an
accident occur and cause the
passenger side air bag to deploy,
it could severely injure 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.
 A safety belt or child restraint
system can become very hot if it
is left in a closed vehicle on a
sunny day, even if the outside
temperature does not feel hot. Be
sure to check the seat cover and
buckles before placing a child
there.
 When the child restraint system
is not in use, store it in the trunk
or fasten it with a safety belt so
that it will not be thrown forward
in the case of a sudden stop or an
accident.
 Children may be seriously injured
or killed by an inflating air bag.
All children, even those too large
for child restraints, must ride in
the rear seat.
WARNING
To reduce the chance or serious or
fatal injuries:
 Children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear seat.
A child riding in the front passen-
ger seat can be forcefully struck
by an inflating air bag resulting in
serious or fatal injuries.
 Always follow the instructions for
installation and use of the child
restraint maker.
 Always make sure the child seat
is secured properly in the car and
your child is securely restrained
in the child seat.
 Never hold a child in your arms or
lap when riding in a vehicle. The
violent forces created during a
crash will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against
the car’s interior.
 Never put a seat belt over your-
self and a child. During a crash,
the belt could press deep into the
child causing serious internal
injuries.

Features of your vehicle72 3
Using a child restraint systemFor small children and babies, the use of
a child seat or infant seat is required. This
child seat or infant seat should be of
appropriate size for the child and should
be installed in accordance with the man-
ufacturer's instructions. It is further
required that the seat be placed in the
vehicle's rear seat. Your vehicle is provid-
ed with three child restraint hook holders
for installing the child seat or infant seat.
(Continued)
 Never leave children unattended
in a vehicle – not even for a short
time. The car can heat up very
quickly, resulting in serious
injuries to children inside. Even
very young children may inadver-
tently cause the vehicle to move,
entangle themselves in the win-
dows, or lock themselves or oth-
ers inside the vehicle.
 Never allow two children, or any
two persons, to use the same seat
belt.
 Children often squirm and reposi-
tion themselves improperly.
Never let a child ride with the
shoulder belt under their arm or
behind their back. Always prop-
erly position and secure children
in rear seat.
 Never allow a child to stand-up or
kneel on the seat or floorboard of
a moving vehicle. During a colli-
sion or sudden stop, the child can
be violently thrown against the
vehicles interior, resulting in seri-
ous injury.
(Continued)
(Continued)
 Never use an infant carrier or a
child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback, it may not pro-
vide adequate security in an acci-
dent.
 Seat belts can become very hot,
especially when the car is parked
in direct sunlight. Always check
seat belt buckles before fastening
them over a child.
 Always store or secure a child
seat, even when it is not in use.
During a collision or sudden stop,
the child seat could be thrown
inside the vehicle.

Securing a child restraint seat Tether anchor system Child restraint hook holders are located
on the back of the rear seat cushions.1. Route the child restraint seat strap
over the seatback.
For vehicles with adjustable headrest,
route the tether strap under the head-
rest and between the headrest posts,
otherwise route the tether strap over
the top of the seatback.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the
appropriate child restraint hook holder
and tighten to secure the seat.
WARNING
- Tether strap
 A child can be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the child
restraint is not properly
anchored. Always follow the child
seat manufacturer’s instructions
for installation and use.
 Never mount more than one child
restraint to a single tether or to a
single lower anchorage point. The
increased load caused by multi-
ple seats may cause the tethers
or anchorage points to break,
causing serious injury or death.
WARNING
- Child restraint
check
Check that the child restraint sys-
tem is secure by pushing and
pulling it in different directions.
Incorrectly fitted child restraints
may swing, twist, tip or separate
causing death or serious injury.

Child seat lower anchorsSome child seat manufacturers make
child restraint seats that are labeled as
International Standards Organization
Fixed (ISOFIX) or ISOFIX-compatible
child restraint seats. These seats include
two rigid or webbing mounted attach-
ments that connect to two ISOFIX
anchors at specific seating positions in
your vehicle. This type of child restraint
seat eliminates the need to use seat
belts to attach the child seat for forward-
facing child restraint seats in the rear
seats.ISOFIX anchors have been provided in
your vehicle. The ISOFIX anchors are
located in the left and right outboard rear
seating positions. Their locations are
shown in the illustration. There is no
ISOFIX anchor provided for the center
rear seating position.
The ISOFIX anchors are located
between the seatback and the seat cush-
ion of the rear seat left and right outboard
seating positions.
WARNING - Child restraint anchorage
 Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used for
adult seat belts or harnesses or
for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
 The tether strap may not work
properly if attached somewhere
other than the correct tether
anchor.
