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 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. Drivers
and passengers should always sit well
back in their seats, properly belted, and
with the seatbacks upright.
B100A01NF-AATSEAT WARMER (If Installed)The seat warmer is provided to warm the
front seats during cold weather. With the
ignition key in the "ON" position, push
either of the switches to warm the driver's
seat or the front passenger's seat.
During mild weather or under conditions
where the operation of the seat warmer is
not needed, keep the switches in the "OFF"
position.
o Each time you push the button, the
temperature setting of the seat is
changed as follows:
ONF038007
o The seat warmer defaults to the OFF
position whenever the ignition switch is
turned on.NOTE:o The seat warmer may not operate if
the ambient temperature is warm.
o If the seat warmer doesn't operate
when the ambient temperature is
lower than 75°F (24°C), it must be
checked at an authorized dealer.

!
WARNING:
Do not turn on the seat warmers, if the
seat is occupied by someone who cannot
monitor the temperature and turn off the
seat warmer, if it becomes too warm.
The seat warmers should not be turned
on when children, the elderly, ill people,
and sleeping people occupy the seat.

B180A02NF-AATSEAT BELT-Driver's 3-Point System
with Emergency Locking Retractor
To Fasten Your BeltTo 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.
B180A01NF
NOTE:o If you are not able to pull out the seat
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 turned from
the "OFF" position to the "ON" or
"START" position, the seat belt warn-
ing light will blink and the warning
chime will sound for approximately
six seconds to remind the driver to
fasten the driver's seat belt.
!
Release the button to lock the anchor into
position. Try sliding the height adjuster to
make sure that it has locked into position.
WARNING:
o Verify the shoulder belt anchor is
locked into position at the appropriate
height. Never position the shoulder
belt across your neck or face.
Improperly positioned seat belts can
cause serious injuries in an accident.
o Failure to replace seat belts after an
accident could leave you with
damaged seat belts that will not
provide protection in the event of
another collision leading to personal
injury or death. Replace your seat
belts after being in an accident as
soon as possible.
!
WARNING:
o Adjust the shoulder belt height when
you sit well back in the seat.
o When adjusting the shoulder belt
height, grip the height adjuster button
securely and slide the height adjuster
up or down.

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.

o Be sure you and your passengers
always wear seat belts and wear them
properly.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 belts
can be activated alone or, where the
frontal collision is severe enough,
together with the airbags.
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
passenger compartment. These are
normal operating conditions and are
not hazardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should
not be breathed for prolonged periods.
Wash all exposed skin areas thor-
oughly after an accident in which the
pre-tensioner seat belts were acti-
vated.
WARNING:
!
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates
the SRS airbag is connected with the
pre-tensioner seat belt, 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
malfunction of the SRS airbag. If the
SRS airbag warning light does not
illuminate when the ignition key is
turned to "ON", or if it blinks for a
second and remains illuminated after
illuminating for approximately 6 sec-
onds, or if it illuminates while the ve-
hicle is being driven, please have an
authorized Hyundai dealer inspect the
pre-tensioner seat belt or SRS airbag
system as soon as possible.
!
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 not to strike, modify, in-
spect, replace, service or repair the
pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies may
lead to improper operation or inadvert-
ent activation and serious injury.
o Always wear the seat belts when driv-
ing or riding in a motor vehicle.
o If the vehicle or pre-tensioner seat
belt must be discarded, contact an
authorised Hyundai dealer.

1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI36
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

12. Side Impact Airbag Module
13. Curtain Airbag Module
The SRSCM continually monitors all
elements while the ignition is "ON" to
determine if a frontal or near-frontal impact
is severe enough to require airbag
deployment or pre-tensioner seat belt
deployment.
The SRS airbag warning light on the in-
strument panel will illuminate for about 6
seconds after the ignition key is turned to
the "ON" position or after the engine is
started, after which the airbag warning
light should go out.
!
WARNING:
o Sitting improperly or out of position
can result in serious or fatal injury in
a crash. All occupants should sit
upright with the seat back in an upright
position, centered on the seat cushion
with their seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and their feet on the floor
until the vehicle is parked and the
ignition key is removed.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy
very rapidly to provide protection in a
crash. If an occupant is out of position
because of not wearing a seat belt, the
airbag may forcefully contact the oc-
cupant causing serious or fatal
injuries.

!Always wash all exposed skin areas
thoroughly with lukewarm water and
a mild soap after an accident in which
the airbags were deployed.
o The SRS can function only when the
ignition key is in the "ON" position. If
the SRS airbag warning light does not
illuminate, or continuously remains
on after illuminating for about 6
seconds when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, or after
the engine is started, comes on while
driving, the SRS is not working
properly. If this occurs, have your
vehicle immediately inspected by
your Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or discon-
nect a battery terminal, turn the igni-
tion key to the "LOCK" position and
remove the ignition key. Never remove
or replace the airbag related fuse(s)
when the ignition key is in the "ON"
position. Failure to heed this warning
will cause the SRS airbag warning
light to illuminate. parts. If the liquid from the air fresh-
ener does leak onto these areas, wash
them with water immediately.
WARNING:
o If an airbag deploys, there may be a
loud noise followed by a fine dust
released in the vehicle. These
conditions are normal and are not
hazardous - the airbags are packed in
this fine powder. The dust generated
during airbag deployment may cause
skin or eye irritation as well as
aggravate asthma for some persons.
WARNING:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYS-
TEM
Your vehicle is equipped with an occupant
classification system in the front
passenger's seat.
The occupant classification system is de-
signed to detect the presence of a prop-
erly-seated front passenger and deter-
mine if the passenger's front air bag should
be enabled (may inflate) or not. The driver's
front air bag is not affected or controlled by
the occupant classification system.
