DOOR LOCKS!
B030B01NF-GATRecord Your Key NumberA code number is recorded on the num-
ber tag that came with the keys to your
Hyundai. This key number tag should not
be left with the keys but kept in a safe
place, not in the vehicle. The key number
should also be recorded in a place where
it can be found in an emergency.
If you need additional keys, or if you
should lose your keys, your authorized
Hyundai dealer can make new keys if you
can supply the key number.

WARNING:
o Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Before you drive away (especially if
there are children in the car), be sure
that all the doors are securely closed
and locked so that the doors cannot
be opened from the inside. This helps
ensure that the doors will not be
opened accidentally. Also, when com-
bined with the proper use of seat
belts, locking the doors helps keep
occupants from being ejected from
the car in case of an accident.
o Before opening the door, always look
for and avoid oncoming traffic.
KEYSB030A01A-AATFor greater convenience, the same key
operates all the locks in your Hyundai.
However, because the doors can be
locked without a key, carrying a spare key
is recommended in case you accidentally
lock one key inside the car.

ways check for obstructions before

SEAT BELTS
B140A01S-AATREAR SEAT WARNINGFor the safety of all passengers, luggage
or other cargo should not be piled higher
than the top of the seatback. In addition,
do not place objects on the rear shelf as
they may move forward during braking or

B150A02S-AATSEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS
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 airbag,
strike the interior structure or be thrown
from the vehicle. Properly worn seat
belts greatly reduce these hazards. Even
with advanced airbags, unbelted occu-
pants can be severely injured by a de-
ploying airbag. Always follow the pre-
cautions about seat belts, airbags and
occupant safety contained in this
manual.
6. Fold down the seat back forward.

When you return the seatback and seat
cushion to its original position, always be
sure it has locked into position by push-
ing on the top of the seatback.
WARNING:
When you return the rear seatback and
seat cushion to its original position , be
careful not to damage the seat belt web-
bing or buckle. In addition, do not allow
the seat belt webbing or buckle to get
caught or pinched in the rear seat.

B190A03A-AATSEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and
Rear Seat 3-Point System with Com-
bination Locking Retractor :
To Fasten Your BeltCombination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat outboard and
center positions to help accommodate
the installation of child restraint systems.
Hyundai strongly recommends that chil-
dren 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 re-
tractor seat belt and an automatic locking
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 (Emer-
gency Locking Retractor Type). It auto-
matically 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. *1) Warning pattern repeats 11 times with
interval 24 seconds. If the driver's seat
belt is buckled, the light will stop within
6 seconds and chime will stop imme-
diately.
*2) The light will stop within 6 seconds
and chime will stop immediately.

WARNING:

B200A01A-AATAdjusting Your Seat Belt
WARNING:You should place the lap belt portion as
low as possible and snugly across your
hips, not on your waist. If the lap belt is
located too high on your waist, it may
increase the chance of injury in the event
of a collision. Both arms should not be
under or over the belt. Rather, one should
be over and the other under, as shown in
the illustration.
Never wear the seat belt under the arm
nearest the door.
B200A01NF
o Children age 12 and younger must
always be properly restrained in the
rear seat. Never allow children to
ride in the front passenger seat. If a
child over 13 must be seated in the
front seat, he/she must be properly
belted and the seat should be moved
as far back as possible.
o Never wear the shoulder belt under
your arm or behind your back. An
improperly positioned shoulder belt
can cause serious injuries in a crash.
The shoulder belt should be posi-
tioned midway over your shoulder
across your collarbone.
o Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A
twisted belt can't do its job as well. In
a collision, it could even cut into you.
Be sure the belt webbing is straight
and not twisted.
o Be careful not to damage the belt
webbing or hardware. If the belt web-
bing or hardware is damaged, re-
place it. When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of a
child restraint system, the seat belt opera-
tion changes to allow the belt to retract,
but not to extend (Automatic Locking
Retractor Type). See page 1-38.
NOTE:Although the combination retractor pro-
vides 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, al-
low the unbuckled seat belt to fully re-
tract.
!
WARNING:
o For maximum restraint system pro-
tection, seat belts must always be
used whenever the car is moving.
o Seat belts are most effective when
seatbacks are in the upright posi-
tion.

into the groove located on the buckle (B).
WARNING:

obtain maximum protection from the seat
belt system and assure proper opera-
tion.
B210A01NF
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMB230A04A-AATChildren 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 re-
strained in the rear seats than in the front
seat. Larger children not in a child re-
straint should use one of the seat belts
provided.
All 50 states have child restraint laws.
You should be aware of the specific re-
quirements 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 re-
straint system that meets the requirements
of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dards (FMVSS).
Child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts
or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder
belt, or by a ISOFIX system (If Installed).
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured.
