If you need to tighten the belt, pull more webbing toward the retractor. When youunbuckle the seat belt and allow it to retract, the retractor will automatically revert back to its normal seated pas-senger emergency locking usage con- dition. NOTE:
o Before installing the child restraint
system, read the instructions sup- plied by the child restraint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as described, have the systemchecked immediately by yourHyundai authorised repairer. WARNING:
Do not install any child restraint sys-tem in the front passenger seat.Should an accident occur and cause the passenger side airbag to deploy, it could severely injure or kill aninfant or child seated in an infant or child seat. Therefore, only use a child restraint system in the rear seat ofyour vehicle. Rear

B180B01A-EAT Pre-Tensioner Seat Belt Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts. The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to make sure that the seat belts fit tightly against the occu-pant's body in certain frontal collisions. The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated with the airbags.
HXG229-D
The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as an Emergency Lock-ing Retractor (ELR) type of seat belt.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the child restraint hook holder and tighten to secure the seat. Refer to "Secur- ing a Child Restraint System with the Tether Anchorage System" on page1-27.
WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint seat at the centre of the rear seat usingthe vehicle's ISOFIX anchors. TheISOFIX anchors are only provided for the left and right outboard rear seating positions. Do not misuse the ISOFIX anchors by attempting to attach a child restraint seat inthe middle of the rear seat to the ISOFIX anchors. In a crash, the child restraint seat ISOFIX attach-ments may not be strong enough to secure the child restraint seat properly in the centre of the rearseat and may break, causing seri- ous injury or death.
!
o When using the vehicle’s “ISOFIX”
system to install a child restraint system in the rear seat, all unused vehicle rear seat belt metal latchplates or tabs must be latched securely in their seat belt buckles and the seat belt webbing must beretracted behind the child restraint to prevent the child from reaching and taking hold of unretracted seatbelts.
o Do not mount more than one child
restraint to a child restraint loweranchorage point. Over-loading may cause the anchorage points or tether anchor to break, causingserious injury or death.
o Attach the ISOFIX or ISOFIX-com-
patible child restraint seat only tothe appropriate locations shown in the illustration.
o Always follow the installation and use instructions provided by themanufacturer of the child restraint.

When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant tries to lean forward tooquickly, the seat belt retractor will lock into position. However, in certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will acti-vate and pull the seat belt into tighter contact 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 WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from apre-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 certain frontal 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 seatbelts are not being worn at the time 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.
o Although it is harmless, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation andshould not be breathed for pro- longed periods. Wash your hands and face thoroughly after an acci-dent in which the pre-tensioner seat belts were activated.

!WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dust will be released throughout the vehicle. These conditions are nor-mal and are not hazardous. How- ever, the fine dust generated dur- ing airbag deployment may causeskin irritation. Be sure to wash your hands and face thoroughly with lukewarm water and a mildsoap after an accident in which the airbags were deployed.
o The SRS can function only when the ignition key is in the "ON" position. If the SRS SRI does notcome on, or continuously remains on, after flashing for about 6 sec- onds when the ignition key isturned to the "ON" position, or after the engine is started, or comes on whilst driving, the SRS is notworking properly. If this occurs, have your vehicle immediately in- spected by your Hyundaiauthorised repairer.!
Passenger's Airbag
B240B05L
CAUTION:
When installing a container of liquid air freshener inside a vehicle, do not place it near the instrument cluster not on the instrument panel pad surface. If there is any leakage from the air freshener onto these areas (instrument cluster, instrument panel pad or air ventilator), it may damage these parts. If the liquid from the air freshener does leak onto these ar- eas, wash them with water immedi- ately. o Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turn the ignition key to the "LOCK" position or remove the ignition key. Never remove or replace theair bag related fuse(s) when the ignition key is in the "ON" posi- tion. Failure to heed this warningwill cause the SRS SRI to illumi- nate.

B990B04Y-EAT Side Impact Airbag Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impact airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passen-ger with additional protection than that offered by the seat belt alone. The side impact airbags are designed to deployonly during certain side impact colli- sions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. Theair bags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations. B990B02Y-R
WARNING:
o The side impact airbag is supple- mental to the driver's and the passenger's three point seat belt systems and is not a substitute for them. Therefore your seat beltsmust be worn at all times whilst the vehicle is in motion. The airbags deploy only in certain sideimpact conditions severe enough to cause significant injury to the vehicle occupants. o For best protection from the side
airbag system and to avoid beinginjured is by the deploying sideimpact airbag, both front seat oc- cupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt proper-ly fastened. The driver's hands should be placed on the steering wheel at the 9:00 and 3:00 o'clockpositions. The passenger's arms and hands should be placed in their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat covers.
o Use of seat covers could reduce or prevent the effectiveness of thesystem.
o Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side impactairbag.
o Do not use excessive force on the side of the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag and yourself.

In case thislight goes out before you start the en- gine, you must turn to the "LOCK" position and restart the engine. In casethis light blinks for five seconds when the ignition key is turned to "ON" posi- tion, this indicates that the immobilisersystem is out of order.
SB210G1-E Turn Signal Indicator Light
