BREAKING IN YOUR NEW
HYUNDAI
B010F01A-AATOperation in Foreign CountriesIf you are going to drive your Hyundai in
another country, be sure to:
o Observe all regulations regarding reg-
istration and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is
available.B010E01A-AATGasolines for Cleaner AirTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai
recommends that you use gasolines
treated with detergent additives, which
help prevent deposit formation in the
engine. These gasolines will help the
engine run cleaner and enhance perfor-
mance of the Emission Control System.
B020A01S-AATDuring the First 1,200 Miles (1,931
Km)No formal "break-in" procedure is required
with your new Hyundai. However, you can
contribute to the economical operation
and durability of your Hyundai by observing
the following recommendations during the
first 1,200 miles (1,931 km).
o Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88 km/
h).
o While driving, keep your engine speed
(rpm, or revolutions per minute) between
2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start
quickly or depress the accelerator pedal
fully.
o For the first 200 miles (322 km), try to
avoid hard stops.
o Don't lug the engine (in other words,
don't drive so slowly in too high a gear
that the engine "bucks":shift to a lower
gear).
o Whether going fast or slow, vary your
speed from time to time.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3
minutes at one time.
o Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200
miles (1,931 km) of operation.
B030A01NF-GATFor greater convenience, your Hyundai
has two master keys and a sub key. The
master keys will open all locks on your
vehicle. The sub key will only function in
the ignition and the door locks.
Leaving your sub key with a parking atten-
dant will ensure that the glove box com-
partment may not be unlocked in your
absence.

B190A02NF-AATSEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and
Rear Seat 3-Point System with
Combination Locking Retractor
To Fasten Your BeltCombination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child
restraint systems. Although a combination
retractor is also installed in the front
passenger seat position, Hyundai strongly
recommends 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 features
of both an emergency locking retractor 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 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 (Automatic
Locking Retractor Type). See page 1-32.
NOTE:o Although the combination retractor
provides the same level of protection
for seated passengers in either
emergency or automatic locking
modes, it is recommended that seated
passengers use the emergency
locking feature for improved
convenience. The automatic locking
function is intended to facilitate child
restraint installation. To convert from
the automatic locking feature to the
emergency locking operation mode,
allow the unbuckled seat belt to fully
retract.
o The front passenger's seat belt
warning light on the center fascia
panel blinks until the front passenger's
seat belt is fastened to remind the
front passenger to fasten the front
passenger's seat belt, when the
ignition key is turned from the "OFF"
position to "the "ON" or "START"
position.
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.
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 web-
bing or hardware. If the belt webbing or
hardware is damaged, replace it.

The SRS uses sensors to gather informa-
tion 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
track position sensors, which are installed
on the seat track, determine if the seats are
fore or aft of a reference position. The seat
belt buckle 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
the impact is.
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 a seat track position sensor or an
occupant classification system is not
working properly, the SRS airbag warn-
ing light
on the instrument panel will
illuminate because the SRS airbag warn-
ing light is connected with the seat track
position sensor and the occupant clas-
sification system. If the SRS airbag warn-
ing light does not illuminate when the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" posi-
tion, remains illuminated after approxi-
mately 6 seconds when the ignition key
is turned to the "ON" position, or if it
illuminates while the vehicle is being
driven, have an authorized Hyundai
dealer inspect the advanced SRS airbag
system as soon as possible.
!
Additionally, 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.
B240A03NF-AATDriver's and Passenger's Front
AirbagYour Hyundai is equipped with an ad-
vanced Supplemental Restraint (Air bag)
System and lap/shoulder belts at both the
driver and passenger seating positions.
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
installed 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.Driver's Front Airbag

Integrated HomeLink
® Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink
® Wireless Control System
provides a convenient way to replace up to
three hand-held radio-frequency (RF)
transmitters with a single built-in device.
This innovative feature will learn the radio
frequency codes of most current
transmitters to operate devices such as
gate operators, garage door openers, entry
door locks, security systems, even home
lighting. Both standard and rolling code-
equipped transmitters can be programmed
by following the outlined procedures.
Additional HomeLink
® information can be
found at: www.homelink.com or by calling
1-800-355-3515.
CAUTION:
Before programming HomeLink
® to a
garage door opener or gate operator,
make sure that people and objects are
out of the way of the device to prevent
potential harm or damage. Do not use
HomeLink
® with any garage door opener
that lacks the safety stop and reverse
features as required by U.S. federal
safety standards (this includes any
garage door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door that
cannot detect an object - signaling the
door to stop and reverse - does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards.
Using a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious
injury or death.Programming HomeLink
®
NOTE:o When programming a garage door
opener, it is advised to park the vehicle
outside of the garage.
o It is recommended that a new battery
be placed in the hand-held transmitter
of the device being programmed to
HomeLink
® for quicker training and
accurate transmission of the radio-
frequency signal.
o Some vehicles may require the ignition
switch to be turned to the second (or
"accessories") position for program-
ming and/or operation of HomeLink.
o In the event that there are still pro-
gramming difficulties or questions
after following the programming steps
listed below, contact HomeLink
® at:
www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-
3515.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF
device you are programming for use in
other vehicles as well as for future
HomeLink
® programming. It is also
suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle,
the programmed HomeLink
® buttons be
erased for security purposes.
