VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS
Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with many high technology, electronically controlled systems
that help to ensure your vehicle operates properly and provides the performance that you
expect. These systems utilize computers to monitor the operation of various systems and
components and help to control their operation. These computerized system operations are
wide-ranging and involve components to reduce emissions, to continuously evaluate the
readiness of the airbag and seat belt pretensioner systems, to determine when the airbag and
seat belt pre-tensioner systems should be deployed and then to activate the deployment, and
if equipped, to operate anti-lock braking, traction control and electrical stability control to assist
the driver to control the vehicle in difficult driving situations. These systems electronically store
information that is useful to service technicians when they need to diagnose and repair these
systems. Additional information is stored only when a crash occurs that results in the
deployment of the airbags or seat belt pre-tensioners. This type of data storage is done by
devices called event data recorders(EDR).
After a crash event, the airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner computer system, known as the
Supplemental Restraint System Control Module (SRSCM) or Airbag Control Unit (ACU), may
record some information about the condition of the vehicle and how it was being operated. This
information consists of data related to seat belt usage and if there was diagnostic information
in the airbag or seat belt systems at the time that a crash occurred, and if the ACU sensed that
a crash of sufficient severity occurred to require seat belt pre-tensioner or airbag deployment.
To retrieve this information, special equipment is needed and access to the vehicle or the device
that stores the data is required. Hyundai will not access information about a crash event or share
it with others except:
o in response to an official request of police or similar government office, or
o with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if the vehicle is leased, with the consent of the lessee,
or
o as part of Hyundai’s defense of litigation, or
o as required by law.

B090A02TG-AATFRONT POWER SEATSThe front seats can be adjusted appropri-
ately by using the control knob of the seat.
Before driving, adjust the seat to the proper
position so as to easily control the steering
wheel, pedals and switches on the instru-
ment panel.
CAUTION:
Do not operate two knobs at the same
time.
WARNING:
o Never adjust the driver’s seat while
the vehicle is moving. Any sudden or
unexpected movement of the seat
could cause you to lose control of the
vehicle resulting in an accident. Only
adjust the driver’s seat when the ve-
hicle is stationary.
o Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close
to the airbag. Position the seat so that
you can sit as far back as possible
from the airbag and still comfortably
reach all controls.

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.
B080D01CM-AATAdjustable HeadrestsHeadrests are designed to help reduce
the risk of neck injuries. To raise the head-
rest, pull it up. To lower the headrest, push
it down while pressing the release button.
To remove the headrest, raise it as far as
it can go then press the release button
while pulling upward. This should only be
done when the seat is not occupied.
To reinstall the headrest, put the headrest
poles (1) into the holes while pressing the
release button (2). Then adjust it to the
appropriate height.
B080D01TG(1)
!
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 of the center
of gravity of an occupant's head. Gen-
erally, the center of gravity of most
people's head is similar with the height
of the top of their eyes. Also, adjust
the headrest as close to your head as
possible. For this reason, the use of a
cushion that holds the body away from
the seatback is not recommended.
B080D02TG
!
WARNING:
Make sure the headrest locks in position
after adjusting it to properly protect the
occupants.

SEAT BELTS!
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. With-
out 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 ad-
vanced airbags, unbelted occupants can
be severely injured by a deploying airbag.
Always follow the precautions about seat
belts, airbags and occupant safety con-
tained in this manual.B150B04Y-AATInfant or Small ChildAll 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific require-
ments in your state. Child and/or infant
safety seats must be properly placed and
installed in the rear seat. Information about
the use of these restraints begins on page
1-34.
!
WARNING:
Every person in your vehicle needs to be
properly restrained at all times, includ-
ing infants and children. Never hold a
child in your arms or lap when riding in a
vehicle. The violent forces created dur-
ing a crash will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against the
interior. Always use a child restraint
appropriate for your child's height and
weight, see page 1-34.NOTE:Small children are best protected from
injury in an accident when properly re-
strained in the rear seat by a child re-
straint system that meets the require-
ments of the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards. Before buying any
child restraint system, make sure that it
has a label certifying that it meets Fed-
eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
The restraint must be appropriate for
your child's height and weight. Check
the label on the child restraint for this
information. See page 1-34.
B150C02A-AATLarger ChildrenChildren who are too large for child re-
straint systems should always occupy the
rear seat and use the available lap/shoul-
der belts. The lap portion should be fas-
tened snug on the hips and as low as
possible. Check belt fit periodically. A
child's squirming could put the belt out of
position. Children are afforded the most
safety in the event of an accident when
they are restrained by a proper restraint
system in the rear seat. If a larger child
(over age 13) must be seated in the front
seat, the child should be securely re-
strained by the available lap/shoulder belt
and the seat should be placed in the
rearmost position. Children under the age
of 13 should be restrained securely in the
rear seat. NEVER place a child under the
age of 13 in the front seat. NEVER place a
rear facing child seat in the front seat of a
vehicle.

B160A02A-AATCARE OF SEAT BELTSSeat belt systems should never be disas-
sembled or modified. In addition, care
should be taken to assure that seat belts
and belt hardware are not damaged by
seat hinges, doors or other abuse.
WARNING:
When you return the rear seatback to its
upright position after the rear seatback
was folded down, be careful not to dam-
age the seat belt webbing or buckle. Be
sure that the webbing or buckle does not
get caught or pinched in the rear seat. A
seat belt with damaged webbing or buckle
will not be as strong and could possibly
fail during a collision or sudden stop,
resulting in serious injury.
B150D01A-AATPregnant WomenThe use of a seat belt is recommended for
pregnant women to lessen the chance of
injury in an accident. When a seat belt is
used, the lap belt portion should be placed
as low and snugly as possible on the hips,
not across the abdomen. For specific rec-
ommendations, consult a physician.B150E01A-AATInjured PersonA seat belt should be used when an injured
person is being transported. When this is
necessary, you should consult a physician
for recommendations.B150F01A-AATOne Person Per BeltTwo people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt. This
could increase the severity of injuries in
case of an accident.
WARNING:
Riding with a reclined seatback increases
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 re-
duced 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 causing serious internal injuries or
the occupant's neck could strike the
shoulder belt. Drivers and passengers
should always sit well back in their seats,
properly belted (see page 1-30), and with
the seatbacks upright.
!
B150G02A-AATDo Not Lie DownTo reduce the chance of injuries in the
event of an accident and to achieve maxi-
mum effectiveness of the restraint system,
all passengers should be sitting up and the
front seats should be in an upright position
when the car is moving. A seat belt cannot
provide proper protection if the person is
lying down in the rear seat or if the front seat
is in a reclined position.
