B190A02Y-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.
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 securing 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 manu-
ally 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 opera-
tion changes to allow the belt to retract, but
not to extend (Automatic Locking Retrac-
tor Type). See page 1-30. 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.
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, however, the belt will lock
into position. It will also lock if you try to lean
forward too quickly.

NOTE:o If you are not able to pull out the safety
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 in the "ON"
position, the seat belt warning light
will flash and the warning chime will
sound for approximately six seconds.

Using a Child Restraint SystemFor small children and babies, the use of
a child seat or infant seat is required. This
child seat or infant seat should be of appro-
priate size for the child and should be
installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions. It is further
required that the seat be placed in the
vehicle's rear seat since this can make an
important contribution to safety. Your ve-
hicle is provided with three child restraint
hook holders for installing the child seat or
infant seat.
!
o Never leave children unattended in a
vehicle – not even for a short time.
The car can heat up very quickly,
resulting in serious injuries to chil-
dren inside. Even very young chil-
dren may inadvertently cause the
vehicle to move, entangle themselves
in the windows, or lock themselves or
others inside the vehicle.
o Never allow two children, or any two
persons, to use the same seat belt.
o Children often squirm and reposition
themselves improperly. Never let a
child ride with the shoulder belt under
their arm or behind their back. Al-
ways properly position and secure
children in rear seat.
o Never allow a child to stand-up or
kneel on the seat or floorboard of a
moving vehicle. During a collision or
sudden stop, the child can be violently
thrown against the vehicles interior,
resulting in serious injury.
o Never use an infant carrier or a child
safety seat that "hooks" over a
seatback, it may not provide adequate
security in an accident.
WARNING:
!
WARNING:
o Seat belts can become very hot, es-
pecially when the car is parked in
direct sunlight. Always check seat
belt buckles before fastening them
over a child.
o Always store or secure a child seat,
even when it is not in use. During a
collision or sudden stop, the child
seat could be thrown inside the ve-
hicle.

tensioner will activate and pull the seat belt
into tighter contact against the occupant's
body.B180B05JM-AATPre-tensioner Seat BeltYour Hyundai vehicle is equipped with
driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner
seat belts. The purpose of the pre-tensioner
is to make sure that the seat belts fit tightly
against the occupant's body in certain fron-
tal collisions.
The pre-tensioner seat belts may be acti-
vated with or without airbag activation,
depending on the circumstances of a col-
lision.
!
The seat belt pre-tensioner system con-
sists mainly of the following components.
Their locations are shown in the illustra-
tion.
1. SRS airbag warning light
2. Retractor pre-tensioner assembly

WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-
tensioner seat belt:
o The seatbelt must be work correctly
and adjusted to the proper position
(see pages 1-21). Please read and
follow all of the important information
and precautions about your vehicle’s
occupant safety features – including
seat belts and advanced airbags –
that are provided in this manual.
o Be sure you and your passengers
always wear seat belts and wear them
properly.

WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to oper-
ate only one time. After activation,
pre-tensioner seat belts must be re-
placed. All seat belts, of any type,
should always be replaced after they
have been worn during a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly
mechanisms become hot during acti-
vation. Do not touch the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies for several min-
utes after they have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or replace
the pre-tensioner seat belts yourself.
This must be done by an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or repair the
pre-tensioner seat belt system in any
manner.
o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies, and failure to
heed the warnings to not strike, modify,
inspect, replace, service or repair the
pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies
may lead to improper operation or
inadvertent activation and serious
injury.
o Always wear seat belts when driving
or riding in a motor vehicle.
CAUTION:
o The sensor that activates the SRS
airbag is connected with the pre-
tensioner seat belts. The SRS airbag
warning light on the instrument
panel will illuminate for approximately
6 seconds after the ignition key has
been turned to the "ON" position, and
then it should turn off.
o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not
working properly, this warning light
will illuminate even if there is no mal-
function of the SRS airbag system. If
the SRS airbag warning light does not
illuminate when the ignition key is
turned to "ON" or if it remains illumi-
nated after approximately 6 seconds,
or if it illuminates while the vehicle is
being driven, please have an autho-
rized Hyundai dealer inspect the pre-
tensioner seat belts and SRS airbag
system as soon as possible.
!
NOTE:o Both the driver's and front
passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts
will be activated in certain frontal col-
lisions. The pre-tensioner seat belt
may be activated with or without
airbag activation, depending on the
circumstances of a collision. The pre-
tensioners will not be activated if the
seat belts are not being worn at the
time of the collision.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are
activated, a loud noise may be heard
and fine dust, which may appear to be
smoke, may be visible in the passen-
ger compartment. These are normal
operating conditions and are not haz-
ardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should
not be breathed for prolonged peri-
ods. Wash all exposed skin areas
thoroughly after an accident in which
the pre-tensioner seat belts were ac-
tivated.
AIR
BAG

1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI34
ADVANCED SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT (AIRBAG) SYSTEM
(SRS)B240A03E-AATYour Hyundai is equipped with an ad-
vanced Supplemental Restraint (Airbag)
System and lap/shoulder belts at both the
driver and passenger seating position.
The indications of the system's presence
are the letters "SRS AIRBAG" embossed
on the airbag pad cover in the steering
wheel and the passenger's side front panel
pad above the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags in-
stalled under the pad covers in the center
of the steering wheel and the passenger's
side front panel above the glove box. The
purpose of the SRS is to provide the
vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger
with additional protection than that offered
by the seat belt system alone, in case of a
frontal impact of sufficient severity.
B240A01JM
Driver's Airbag
The SRS uses a collection of sensors to
gather information about the driver's and
front passenger's seat position, the driver's
and front passenger's seat belt usage and
impact severity.
The driver's and front passenger's seat
position sensors, which are installed on
the seat track, determine if the seats are
fore or aft of a reference position. Similarly,
the seat belt usage sensors determine if
the driver and front passenger's seat belts
are fastened. These sensors provide the
ability to control the SRS deployment based
on how close the driver's seat is to the
steering wheel, how close the passenger's
seat is to the instrument panel, whether or
not the seat belts are fastened, and how
severe is the impact.
The advanced SRS offers the ability to
control the airbag inflation with two levels.
A first stage level is provided for moderate-
severity impacts. A second stage level is
provided for more severe impacts.
According to the impact severity, seating
position and seat belt usage, the
SRSCM(SRS Control Module) controls the
airbag inflation. Failure to properly wear
seat belts can increase the risk or severity
of injury in an accident.
CAUTION:
If the seat position sensor is not working
properly, the SRS airbag warning light
on the instrument panel will illumi-
nate even if there is no malfunction of the
SRS airbag system, because the SRS
airbag warning light is connected with
the seat position sensor. If the SRS airbag
warning light does not illuminate when
the ignition key is turned to the "ON"
position, if it remains illuminated after
coming on for approximately 6 seconds,
or if it illuminates while the vehicle is
being driven, have an authorized Hyundai
dealer inspect the seat position sensor
and the advanced SRS airbag system as
soon as possible.
!AIR
BAGAdditionally, your Hyundai is equipped
with an occupant classification system in
the front passenger's seat. The occupant
classification system detects the presence
of a passenger in the front passenger's
seat and will turn off the front passenger's
airbag under certain conditions. For more
detail, see "Occupant Classification Sys-
tem" later in this section.

WARNING:
Always use seat belts and child restraints
– every trip, every time, everyone!
Airbags inflate with considerable force
and in the blink of an eye. Seat belts help
keep occupants in proper position to
obtain maximum benefit from the airbag.
Even with advanced airbags, improp-
erly and unbelted occupants can be se-
verely injured when the airbag inflates.
Always follow the precautions about seat
belts, airbags and occupant safety con-
tained in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious or fatal
injuries and receive the maximum safety
benefit from your restraint system:
o Never place a child in any child or
booster seat in the front seat (see
child restraints 1-26).
o ABC – Always Buckle Children in the
back seat. It is the safest place for
children of any age to ride.
o Front and side impact airbags can
injure occupants improperly posi-
tioned in the front seats.
o Move your seat as far back as prac-
tical from the front airbags, while still
maintaining control of the vehicle.
!
WARNING:
o Modification to the seat structure can
adversely affect the seat position
sensor and cause the airbag to de-
ploy at a different level than should be
provided.
o Do not place any objects underneath
the front seats which could damage
the seat position sensor or interfere
with the occupant classification sys-
tem.
o Do not place any objects that may
cause magnetic fields near the front
seats. These may cause a malfunc-
tion of the seat position sensor.NOTE:o Be sure to read information about the
SRS on the labels provided on the
backside of the sun visor.
o Advanced airbags are combined with
pre-tensioner seat belts to help pro-
vide enhanced occupant protection
in frontal crashes. Front airbags are
not intended to deploy in light colli-
sions in which protection can be pro-
vided by the pre-tensioner seat belt.
o If you are considering modification of
your vehicle due to a disability, please
contact the Hyundai Customer As-
sistance Center at 1-800-633-5151.o Never sit or lean unnecessarily close
to the front or side airbags.
o Never lean against the door or center
console – always sit in an upright
position.
o Do not allow an adult passenger to
ride in the front seat when the “Pas-
senger Airbag OFF” indicator is illu-
minated, because the airbag will not
deploy in the event of a moderate or
severe frontal crash.
o Never place objects over or near any
airbag module (front or side impact
airbags), because these objects can
injure passengers in a crash.
o Never place covers, blankets or af-
termarket seat warmers on the pas-
senger seat as these may interfere
with the occupant classification sys-
tem.
o Do not tamper or disconnect SRS
wiring or other components. Injuries
could result from inadvertent deploy-
ment or failure of the airbag to deploy
in a crash.
o If the SRS airbag warning light (see pg
1-50) remains illuminated while the
vehicle is being driven, have an au-
thorized Hyundai dealer inspect the
airbag system as soon as possible.
