B110A02MC-AATFolding Rear SeatbacksThe rear seatbacks may be folded to
facilitate carrying long items or to increase
the luggage capacity of the vehicle.
WARNING:
The purpose of the fold-down rear
seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer
objects than could otherwise be accom-
modated.
Never allow passengers to sit on top of
the folded down seatback or cargo area
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.

Steps for Determining Correct Load
Limit
(1)Locate the statement "The com-
bined weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed XXX pounds''
on your vehicle's placard.
(2)Determine the combined weight of
the driver and passengers that will
be riding in your vehicle.
(3)Subtract the combined weight of the
driver and passengers from XXX
kilograms or XXX pounds.
(4)The resulting figure equals the avail-
able amount of cargo and luggage
load capacity. For example, if the
"XXX" amount equals 1400 lbs, and
there will be five 150 lb. passengers
in your vehicle, the amount of avail-
able cargo and luggage load capac-
ity is 650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x 150) =
650 lbs.)
(5)Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being loaded on
the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo
and luggage load capacity calcu-
lated in Step 4. The tire label located on the driver's
side of the center pillar outer panel
gives the original tire size, cold tire
pressures recommended for your ve-
hicle, the number of people that can be
in your vehicle and vehicle capacity
weight.
Vehicle capacity weight:
849 lbs (385 kg)
Vehicle capacity weight is the maxi-
mum combined weight of occupants
and cargo. If your vehicle is equipped
with a trailer, the combined weight
includes the tongue load.
Seating capacity:
Total: 5 persons
(Front seat: 2 persons,
Rear seat: 3 persons)
Seating capacity is the maximum num-
ber of occupants including a driver,
your vehicle may carry.However the seating capacity may be
reduced based upon the weight of all
of the occupants, and the weight of the
cargo being carried or towed. Do not
overload the vehicle as there is a limit
to the total weight, or load limit includ-
ing occupants and cargo, the vehicle
can carry.
Towing capacity:
We do not recommend using this ve-
hicle for trailer towing.
Cargo capacity:
The cargo capacity of your vehicle will
increase or decrease depending on the
weight and the number of occupants
and the tongue load, if your vehicle is
equipped with a trailer.

C190G03JM-AATCompliance Label
The compliance label is located on the
driver's side of the center pillar outer
panel.
The label shows the maximum allow-
able weight of the fully loaded vehicle.
This is called the GVWR (Gross Ve-
hicle Weight Rating). The GVWR in-
cludes the weight of the vehicle, all
occupants, fuel and cargo.
C190G01A
Refer to your vehicle’s tire and loading
information label for specific informa-
tion about your vehicle’s capacity
weight and seating positions. The com-
bined weight of the driver, passengers
and cargo should never exceed your
vehicle’s capacity weight.

WARNING:
o Never exceed the GVWR for your
vehicle, the GAWR for either the
front or rear axle and vehicle ca-
pacity weight. Exceeding these
ratings can cause an accident or
vehicle damage. You can calcu-
late the weight of your load by
weighing the items (or people)
before putting them in the ve-
hicle. Be careful not to overload
your vehicle.
o Do not load your vehicle any
heavier than the GVWR, either the
maximum front or rear GAWR
and vehicle capacity weight. If
you do, parts, including tires on
your vehicle can break, and it can
change the way your vehicle
handles and braking ability. This
could cause you to lose control
and crash. Also, overloading can
shorten the life of your vehicle. This label also tells you the maximum
weights that can be supported by the
front and rear axles, called Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR). To find out the
actual loads on your front and rear
axles, you need to go to a weigh
station and weigh your vehicle. Your
dealer can help you with this. Be sure
to spread out your load equally on the
left and right sides of the centerline.
!
WARNING:
o Overloading your vehicle can
cause heat buildup in your
vehicle's tires and possible tire
failure that could lead to a crash.
o Overloading your vehicle can
cause increased stopping dis-
tances that could lead to a crash.
o A crash resulting from poor han-
dling vehicle damage, tire failure,
or increased stopping dis-
tances could result in serious
injury or death.

CAUTION:
An open fuse indicates that there is a
problem in the electrical circuit. If you
replace a fuse and it blows as soon as
the accessory is turned on, the prob-
lem is serious and should be referred to
a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and re-
pair. Never replace a fuse with anything
except a fuse with the same or a lower
amperage rating. A higher capacity fuse
could cause damage and create a fire
hazard.
!
NOTE:
See page 6-28 for the fuse panel de-
scriptions.
