Front passenger's seats
The front seat can be adjusted by
operating the control switches locat-ed on the side of a seat cushion.
Before driving, adjust the seat to the
proper position so that you can easi-
ly reach the steering wheel, foot ped-
als and controls on the instrument
cluster.Take the following precautions
while adjusting your seat:
NEVER attempt to adjust the
seat when the vehicle ismotion.
The seat may inadvertently
move and may cause loss of
vehicle control, resulting in anaccident.
Do not place anything under
the front seats. Loose objects
in the driver's foot area may
interfere with the pedal opera-
tion, causing an accident. (Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
Do not fasten the seat belt
across your neck or over a
sharp edge. Always tightly
fasten the shoulder strap over
your body.
Be careful that a seat belt does not become caught orjammed.
(Continued)
Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with proper sitting and
proper locking of the seat-
back.
Do not place a cigarette lighter on the floor or seat.
When you operate the seat,
gas may leak, causing a fire.

Seat belt warning
As a reminder to the driver, the seat
belt warning light is turned ON for
approximately 6 seconds each time
you turn the ignition switch ON
regardless of belt fastening.
When the vehicle start to move with-
out fastening the seat belt with the
ignition switch ON, the seat belt
warning light flashes until it stops.
When the vehicle drives faster than
20km/h without fastening the seat
belt with the ignition switch is ON, the
seat belt warning chime will sound
for approximately 100 seconds.
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user,
as it may fail the seat belt
adjusting devices, or fail the
seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack to
be tightly fastened without
any slack.
When you fasten the seat belt,
be careful not to latch the seat
belt tap in the buckles of otherseats.
It is very dangerous, and you
may not be properly protected
by the seat belt.
Do not fasten or unfasten the seat belt in a repetitive man-
ner, while driving. This may
result in loss of control, and
an accident, causing death,
serious injury, or property
damage.(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
While fastening the seat belt, make sure that the seat belt is
not fastened over a hard or a
fragile object.
Make sure that there is noth-
ing in the buckle. If so, the
seat belt may not be securelyfastened.

Pregnant women/child
The use of a seat belt is recom-
mended for pregnant women/child to
reduce the risk of injury in an acci-
dent. The lap belt should be fastened
as low and snugly as possible across
the hips, not across the abdomen.
For specific recommendations, con-
sult a physician.
Pre-tensioner seat belt (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with driver'sand front passenger's pre-tensioner
seat belts. The purpose of the pre-
tensioner is to make sure that theseat belts tightly fits against the
occupant's body in certain frontal
collisions. The pre-tensioner seat
belt is activated in a crash where the
frontal colliding impact is severeenough. When the vehicle suddenly stops, or
when the occupant lean forward too
quickly, the seat belt retractor will
lock in position. In a certain frontalcollision, the pre-tensioner will acti-
vate and slightly retract the seat belt
to tightly restrain the occupant's
body.
When the system detects excessive
tension on the driver's or the frontpassenger's seat belt, the load lim-iter inside the pre-tensioner releases
some pressure on the affected seat
belt. (if equipped)
OEU034037
For your safety, make sure that the belt webbing is not loose or
twisted and always sit properly
on your seat.
WARNING
2-20
Safety system of your vehicle
When the pre-tensioner seat beltis activated, there will be a loud
noise and fine dusts. These may
appear to be smoke, and be vis-
ible in the passenger compart-
ment. These are normal operat-
ing conditions, and does not
indicate a problem.
Although they are harmless sub- stances, the fine dusts may
cause skin irritation. These
should not be inhaled for a pro-
longed period of time.
Thoroughly wash all the
exposed skin areas after an
accident, when the pre-tension-
er seat belt was activated.
Because the sensor that acti- vates the SRS air bag is con-nected with the pre-tensioner
seat belt, the SRS air bag warn-
ing light on the instrument clus-
ter will illuminate for approxi-
mately 6 seconds after turning
ON the ignition switch, and then
it goes OFF.
NOTICE
To obtain maximum benefit
from a pre-tensioner seat belt:
1.The seat belt must be proper-ly fastened and adjusted.
Please read and follow all of
the important safety informa-tion and precautions about
your vehicle's occupant safe-
ty features - including seat
belts and air bags - that are
provided in this manual.
2.Make sure you and your pas- sengers always and properlyfasten the seat belts.
WARNING
When the pre-tensioner seat
belt does not properly operate,
the SRS air bag warning light
illuminates even without a mal-
function of the SRS air bag.
When the SRS air bag warninglight does not illuminate after
turning ON the ignition switch,
when it remains ON longer than
6 seconds, or when it remains
ON while driving the vehicle, werecommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Seat belt precautionsLarger children
Children who are too large for child
restraint systems should always sit in
a rear seat and use the available
lap/shoulder belts. The lap belt
should be fastened as low and snug-
gly as possible across the hips.
Frequently check the belt tightness.
A child's squirming may move 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 sys-
tem in a rear seat. When a large child
(at the age of 13 and over) must beseated in the front seat, the child
should be securely restrained by the
available lap/shoulder belt, and theseat should be placed in the rear-
most position. Children at the age of
12 and under should be restrained
securely in a rear seat. NEVER placea child at the age of 12 and under ina front seat.
NEVER place a rear facing child seat
in the front seat of a vehicle.When the shoulder belt is fastened
slightly across the child's neck or
face, move the child closer to the
center of the vehicle. When the
shoulder belt is still fastened slightly
across their face or neck, they need
to be returned to a child restraint sys-tem.
All occupants of the vehicle
must and always fasten their
seat belts. Seat belts and childrestraints reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injury in the
event of a collision or sudden
stop. Without a seat belt, occu-
pants may slide too close to a
deploying air bag, strike the
interior structure or be thrown
out of the vehicle. Properly
worn seat belts greatly reduce
these hazards.
Always follow the precautions
of this manual, about seat belts,
air bags and occupant seats.
WARNING
Shoulder belts on small chil- dren
Never fasten a shoulder even
slightly across a child's neck
or face, when the vehicle is inmotion.
When seat belts are improper-
ly fastened over children,there is a risk of death or seri-
ous injury.
