Introduction
VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCESS
No special break-in period is needed.
By following a few simple precautions
for the first 600 miles (1,000 km) you
may add to the performance, econo-
my and life of your vehicle.
Do not race the engine.
While driving, keep your engine
speed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
Do not maintain a single speed for
long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is
needed to properly break-in the
engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emer-
gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly.
Do not let the engine idle longer
than 3 minutes at one time.CALIFORNIA PROPO-

Seat belt warning (for driver’s seat)
The driver's seat belt warning light
and chime will activate to the follow-
ing table when the ignition switch is
in "ON" position.
WARNING
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user
which will either prevent the
seat belt adjusting devices
from operating to remove
slack, or prevent the seat belt
assembly from being adjusted
to remove slack.
When you fasten the seat belt,
be careful not to latch the seat
belt in the buckles of another
seat. It's very dangerous and
you may not be protected by
the seat belt properly.
Do not unfasten the seat belt
and do not fasten and unfas-
ten the seat belt repeatedly
while driving. This could result
in loss of control, and an acci-
dent causing death, serious
injury, or property damage.
Make sure there is nothing in
the buckle. The seat belt may
not be fastened securely.

(Continued)
Care should be taken to avoid
contamination of the webbing
with polishes, oils and chemi-
cals and particularly battery
acid. Cleaning may safely be
carried out using mild soap and
water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes
frayed, contaminated or dam-
aged. It is essential to replace
the entire assembly after it has
been worn in a severe impact
even if damage to the assembly
is not obvious. Belts should not
be worn with straps twisted.
Each seat belt assembly must
only be used by one occupant;
it is dangerous to put a belt
around a child being carried on
the occupant's lap.

Safety features of your vehicle
Occupant classification system
Your vehicle is equipped with an
occupant classification system in the
front passenger's seat.
The occupant classification system
is designed to detect the presence of
a properly-seated front passenger
and determine 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.
Main components of occupant
classification system
A detection device located within
the front passenger seat frame.
Electronic system to determine
whether the front passenger air
bag system should be activated or
deactivated.
An indicator light located on the
instrument panel which illuminates
the words PASS AIR BAG "OFF"
indicating the front passenger air
bag system is deactivated.
The instrument panel air bag indi-
cator light is interconnected with
the occupant classification system.
(Continued)
If the SRS air bag warning light
" " does not illuminate, or
continuously remains on after
illuminating for about 6 sec-
onds when the ignition switch
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 an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Before you replace a fuse or
disconnect a battery terminal,
turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK position and remove
the ignition key for ignition
key, and turn the engine
start/stop button to the OFF
position for smart key. Never
remove or replace the air bag
related fuse(s) when the igni-
tion switch is in the ON posi-
tion. Failure to heed this warn-
ing will cause the SRS air bag
warning light to illuminate.
