WARNING:
o Sitting improperly or out of position
can cause occupants to be shifted
too close to a deploying airbag, strike
the interior structure or be thrown
from the vehicle resulting in serious
injury or death.
o Always sit upright with the seatback
in an upright position, centered on
the seat cushion with your seat belt
on, legs comfortably extended and
your feet on the floor. oKeep occupants away from the airbag
covers. All occupants should sit up-
right, fully back in their seats with their
seat belts on and their feet on the floor.
If occupants are too close to the airbag
covers, they could be injured if the
airbags inflate.
oDo not attach or place objects on or
near the airbag covers. Any object
attached to or placed on the front or
side impact airbag covers could inter-
fere with the proper operation of the
airbags.
oDo not modify the front seats. Modi-
fication of the front seats could inter-
fere with the operation of the supple-
mental restraint system sensing com-
ponents or side impact airbags.
oDo not place items under the front
seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the opera-
tion of the supplemental restraint sys-
tem sensing components and wiring
harnesses.
oNever hold an infant or child on your
lap. The infant or child could be seri-
ously injured or killed in the event of a
crash. All infants and children should
be properly restrained in appropriate
child safety seats or seat belts in the
rear seat.
Adding Equipment to or Modifying
Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle.If you modify your vehicle by changing
your vehicle's frame, bumper system, front
end or side sheet metal or ride height, this
may adversely affect the operation of your
vehicle's airbag system.

CARE OF DISCS
StorageWhen not in use, place your discs in their
individual cases and store them in a cool
place away from the sun, heat, and dust.
Do not grip or pull out the disc with your
hand while the disc is being pulled into
the unit by the self loading mechanism.Keep Your Discs Clean
B850A02F-AATProper HandlingHandle your disc as shown. Do not drop
the disc. Hold the disc so you will not
leave fingerprints on the surface. If the
surface is scratched, it may cause the
pickup to skip signal tracks. Do not affix
tape, paper, or gummed labels on the
disc. Do not write on the disc.Damaged DiscDo not attempt to play damaged, warped
or cracked discs. These could severely
damage the playback mechanism.Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of
a disc could cause the pickup to skip
signal tracks. Wipe the surface clean with
a clean soft cloth.
If the surface is heavily soiled, dampen a
clean soft cloth in a solution of mild neu-
tral detergent to wipe it clean.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
132
!
o If your vehicle becomes stuck in
snow, mud, sand, etc., then you may
attempt to rock the vehicle free by
moving it forward and backward. Do
not attempt this procedure if people
or objects are anywhere near the
vehicle. During the rocking opera-
tion the vehicle may suddenly move
forward of backward as it becomes
unstuck, causing injury to nearby
people or damage to objects.
WARNING:
!
WARNING:
ABS will not prevent accidents due to
improper or dangerous driving maneu-
vers. Even though vehicle control is
improved during emergency braking,
always maintain a safe distance be-
tween you and objects ahead. Vehicle
speeds should always be reduced dur-
ing extreme road conditions.
The braking distance for cars equipped
with an anti-lock braking system may
be longer than for those without it in the
following road conditions.
During these conditions the veicle
should be driven at reduced speeds.
o Rough, gravel or snow-covered
roads.
o With tire chains installed.
o On roads where the road surface is
pitted or has different surface height.
These roads should be driven at re-
duced speeds. The safety features of
an ABS equipped vehicle should not be
tested by high speed driving or corner-
ing. This could endanger the safety of
yourself or others.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYS-
TEMC120A01MC-AAT(If Installed)The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is
designed to prevent wheel lock-up dur-
ing sudden braking or on hazardous road
surfaces. The ABS control module moni-
tors the wheel speed and controls the
pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in
emergency situations or on slick roads,
ABS will increase vehicle control during
braking.NOTE:o A click sound may be heard in the
engine compartment when the ve-
hicle begins to move after the engine
is started. These conditions are nor-
mal and indicate that the anti-lock
brake system is functioning prop-
erly.
o During ABS operation, a slight pulsa-
tion may be felt in the brake pedal
when the brakes are applied. Also, a
noise may be heard in the engine
compartment while braking. These
conditions are normal and indicate
that the anti-lock brake system is
functioning properly.
