VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting
a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle's systems performed. The
EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such
data as:
o How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
o Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation
occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data
(e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or
the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law
enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to
the vehicle or the EDR.

B030B01NF-GATRecord Your Key NumberA code number is recorded on the num-
ber tag that came with the keys to your
Hyundai. This key number tag should not
be left with the keys but kept in a safe
place, not in the vehicle. The key number
should also be recorded in a place where
it can be found in an emergency.
If you need additional keys, or if you
should lose your keys, your authorized
Hyundai dealer can make new keys if you
can supply the key number.

WARNING:
o Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Before you drive away (especially if
there are children in the car), be sure
that all the doors are securely closed
and locked so that the doors cannot
be opened from the inside. This helps
ensure that the doors will not be
opened accidentally. Also, when com-
bined with the proper use of seat
belts, locking the doors helps keep
occupants from being ejected from
the car in case of an accident.
o Before opening the door, always look
for and avoid oncoming traffic.
NOTE:o The driver's door can be unlocked by
turning the key once toward the rear.
If you wish to unlock all doors, turn
the key again toward the rear within
4 seconds (With the central door
locking system).

B080C02A-AATAdjusting Seatback AngleTo recline the seatback, lean forward to
take your weight off it, then pull up on the
recliner control lever at the outside edge
of the seat. Now lean back until the de-
sired seatback angle is achieved. To lock
the seatback into position, release the
recliner control lever.
!
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.

C010104AMCHeadrestThe driver's and front passenger's seats
are equipped with a headrest for the
occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides comfort
for the driver and front passenger, but
also helps to protect the head and neck
in the event of a collision.

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.

SEAT BELTS
B140A01S-AATREAR SEAT WARNINGFor the safety of all passengers, luggage
or other cargo should not be piled higher
than the top of the seatback. In addition,
do not place objects on the rear shelf as
they may move forward during braking or
in an accident and strike vehicle passen-
gers.

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.
Without 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 advanced airbags, unbelted occu-
pants can be severely injured by a de-
ploying airbag. Always follow the pre-
cautions about seat belts, airbags and
occupant safety contained in this
manual.
!
WARNING:
When you return the rear seatback to its
upright position after being folded down:
Be careful not to damage the seat belt
webbing or buckle. Do not allow the seat
belt webbing or buckle to get caught or
pinched in the rear seat. Ensure that the
seatback is completely locked into its
upright position by pushing on the top of
the seatback. Otherwise, in an accident
or sudden stop, the seat could fold down
and allow cargo to enter the passenger
compartment, which could result in se-
rious injury or death.

B150B03A-AATInfant or Small ChildAll 50 states have child restraint laws.
You should be aware of the specific re-
quirements 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 1-31.
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 1-31.
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 1-31.
B150C02A-AATLarger ChildrenChildren who are too large for child re-
straint systems should always occupy the
rear seat and use the available lap/
shoulder belts. The lap portion should be
fastened 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.

B150F01A-AATOne Person Per BeltTwo people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt.
This could increase the severity of inju-
ries in case of an accident.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 sys-
tem, all passengers should be sitting up
and the front seats should be in an up-
right position when the car is moving. A
seat belt cannot provide proper protec-
tion if the person is lying down in the rear
seat or if the front seat is in a reclined
position.
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 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 1-26), and with the seatbacks up-
right.
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.C020302AKMRestraint of pregnant womenPregnant women should wear lap/shoul-
der belt assemblies whenever possible
according to specific recommendations
by their doctors. The lap portion of the belt
should be worn AS SNUGLY AND LOW
AS POSSIBLE on the hips, not a cross the
abdomen.
!
WARNING - Pregnant women
Pregnant women must never place the
lap portion of the safety belt over the
area of the abdomen where the fetus is
located or above the abdomen where the
belt could crush the fetus during an im-
pact.
