WARNING:
Riding with a reclined seatback in-
creases your chance of serious or fatal
injuries in the event of a collision or
sudden stop. The protection of your
restraint system (seat belts and airbags)
is greatly reduced by reclining your seat.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly. The
more the seatback is reclined, the greater
the chance that an occupant's hips will
slide under the lap belt or the occupant's
neck will strike the shoulder belt. Driv-
ers and passengers should always sit
well back in their seats, properly belted,
and with the seatbacks upright.
B080D02JM-AATAdjustable HeadrestsHeadrests are designed to help reduce
the risk of neck injuries.
To raise the headrest, pull it up. To lower
the headrest, push it down while pressing
the lock knob. To remove the headrest,
raise it as far as it can go then press the lock
knob while pulling upward. This should
only be done when the seat is not occu-
pied.

WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident the headrest should be
adjusted so the middle of the head-
rest is at the same height as the top of
the occupant's eyes. For this reason,
the use of a cushion that holds the
body away from the seatback is not
recommended.
o Do not operate the vehicle with the
headrests removed as injury to the
occupants may occur in the event of
an accident. Headrests may provide
protection against neck injuries when
properly adjusted.

!
WARNING:
The purpose of the folding rear
seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer
objects than could otherwise be accom-
modated. Do not allow passengers to sit
on top of the folded down seatback, while
the car is moving as this is not a proper
seating position and no seat belts are
available for use. This could result in
serious injury or death in case of an
accident or sudden stop. Objects car-
ried on the folded down seatback should
not extend higher than the top of the front
seats. This could allow cargo to slide
forward and cause injury or damage
during sudden stops.

sible to fold the rear seatback by using the
seatback release lever. In this instance,
move the lock knob to the "UNLOCK" po-
sition and fold the rear seatback. The rear

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 wa-
ter. Bleach, dye, strong detergents or abra-
sives should not be used because they
may damage and weaken the fabric.B160D01A-AATWhen to Replace Seat BeltsEntire in-use seat belt assembly or assem-
blies should be replaced if the vehicle has
been involved in an accident. This should
be done even if no damage is visible.
Additional questions concerning seat belt
operation should be directed to your
Hyundai Dealer.
B170A04A-AATHEIGHT ADJUSTABLE FRONT SEAT
SHOULDER BELTYou can adjust the height of the shoulder
belt anchor to one of 4 positions for maxi-
mum 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
appropriate position.
HTG2058 B160B01A-AAT
Periodic InspectionIt is recommended that all seat belts be
inspected periodically for wear or damage
of any kind. Parts of the system that are
damaged should be replaced as soon as
possible.
!
To raise the height adjuster, pull it up. To
lower it, push it down while pressing the
height adjuster button.
Release the button to lock the anchor into
position. Try sliding the height adjuster
down to make sure that it has locked into
position.
WARNING:
o Verify the shoulder belt anchor is
locked into position at the appropriate
height. Never position the shoulder
belt across your neck or face. Im-
properly positioned seat belts can
cause serious injuries in an accident.
o Failure to replace seat belts after an
accident could leave you with dam-
aged seat belts that will not provide
protection in the event of another
collision leading to personal injury or
death. Replace your seat belts after
being in an accident as soon as pos-
sible.

1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI30
This type of seat belt combines the fea-
tures of both an emergency locking retrac-
tor 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 secur-
ing 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 operation changes to allow
the belt to retract, but not to extend (Auto-
matic Locking Retractor Type). See page
1-39.NOTE:o Although the combination retractor
provides the same level of protection
for seated passengers in either emer-
gency or automatic locking modes, it
is recommended that seated passen-
gers use the emergency locking fea-
ture for improved convenience.
B190A02TG-AATSEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and
Rear Seat 3-Point System with Com-
bination Locking RetractorCombination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child re-
straint systems. Although a combination
retractor is also installed in the front passen-
ger seat position, Hyundai strongly recom-
mends that children always be seated in the
rear seat. NEVER place any infant restraint
system in the front seat of the vehicle.
B180A02TG-AATSEAT BELT-Driver's 3-Point System
with Emergency Locking RetractorTo 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.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the
proper length only after the lap belt portion
is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly
around your hips. If you lean forward in a
slow, easy motion, the belt will extend and
let you move around. If there is a sudden
stop or impact, the belt will lock into posi-
tion. It will also lock if you try to lean forward
too quickly.
B180A01NF
NOTE:o If you are not able to pull out the seat
belt from the retractor, firmly pull the
belt out and release it. Then you will be
able to pull the belt out smoothly.
o If the driver's seat belt is not fastened
when the ignition key is turned to the
"ON" position, the seat belt warning
light will blink and the warning chime
will sound for approximately six sec-
onds to remind the driver to fasten the
driver's seat belt. See page 1-68.

WARNING:
o For maximum restraint system pro-
tection, the seat belts must always be
used whenever the car is moving.
o Seat belts are most effective when
seatbacks are in the upright position.
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.
!The automatic locking function is in-
tended to facilitate child restraint in-
stallation. To convert from the auto-
matic locking feature to the emergency
locking operation mode, allow the un-
buckled seat belt to fully retract.
o If the front passenger's seat belt is not
fastened when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, the seat
belt warning light on the center fascia
panel will blink for approximately six
seconds to remind the front passen-
ger to fasten the front passenger's
seat belt. See page 1-68.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 positioned
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, replace
it.
WARNING:
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.
