Seatback angle
To recline the seatback:
1. Lean forward slightly and lift up theseatback lever.
2. Carefully lean back on the seat and adjust the seatback to the position you
desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seatback is locked in place. (The lever
MUST return to its original position for
the seatback to lock.) Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.
Even when buckled up, the protection of
your restraint system (seat belts and air
bags) is greatly reduced by reclining your
seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly. When
the seatback is reclined, the shoulder
belt cannot do its job because it will not
be snug against your chest. Instead, it
will be in front of you. During an accident,
you could be thrown into the seat belt,
causing neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined, the
greater chance the passenger's hips will
slide under the lap belt or the passen-
ger's neck will strike the shoulder belt.
Seat cushion height
To change the height of the seat cushion:
Push down on the lever several times,
to lower the seat cushion.
Pull up on the lever several times, to raise the seat cushion.

NEVER ride with a reclined seat-
back when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of serious
or fatal injuries in the event of a col-
lision or sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should
ALWAYS sit well back in their seats,
properly belted, and with the seat-
backs upright.

Safety system of your vehicle
If you continue not to fasten the seat belt
and you drive over 6 mph (9 km/h), the
warning light will stay illuminated.
If you continue not to fasten the seat belt
and you drive over 12 mph (20 km/h) the
seat belt warning chime
will sound for approximately 100 seconds
and the corresponding warning light will
blink.
If you unfasten the seat belt while driving
under 12 mph (20 km/h) the seat belt
warning light will illuminate until the seat
belt is fastened.
If you unfasten the seat belt while driving
over 12 mph (20 km/h), the seat belt
warning chime will sound for approxi-
mately 100 seconds and the correspon-
ding warning light will blink.Seat Belt Restraint System
Seat Belt-Driver's 3-point sys-tem with emergency lockingretractor
To fasten your seat belt:
Pull the seat belt out of the retractor and
insert the metal tab (1) into the buckle
(2). There will be an audible "click" when
the tab locks into the buckle. You should place the lap belt (1) portion
across your hips and the shoulder belt
(2) portion across your chest.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the
proper length 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 move with you.
If there is a sudden stop or impact, the
belt will lock into position. It will also lock
if you try to lean forward too quickly.
If you are not able to smoothly pull
enough of the seat belt out from the
retractor, firmly pull the seat belt out
and release it. After release, you will
be able to pull the belt out smoothly.
NOTICE
The front passenger's seat belt
warning light may not properly
operate if the front passenger does
not sit properly in the seat.

If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate normally,
the warning light ( ) will illumi-
nate on the instrument cluster. You
may steer the vehicle, but it will
require increased steering efforts.
Take your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the sys-
tem checked as soon as possible.
CAUTION
Easy Access Function
When exiting the vehicle the driver’s seat
will move rearward when the engine is
turned off and the shift lever in P (Park).
When entering the vehicle the driver’s
seat will move forward when the ignition
switch is placed to the ACC position.
You can activate or deactivate the Easy
Access Function from the User Settings
Mode on the LCD display.
For more information, refer to the
"LCD Display" section in this chapter.
Electric Power Steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering the
vehicle. If the engine is turned off or if the
power steering system becomes inoper-
ative, you may still steer the vehicle, but
it will require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Information
The following symptoms may occur dur-
ing normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high immedi-
ately after placing the ignition switch in
the ON position.
This happens as the system performs the
EPS system diagnostics. When the diag-
nostics is completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition switch is in
the ON or OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving
speed.
• When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnormal noise may
occur. If temperature rises, the noise will
disappear. This is a normal condition.
• When an error is detected from the EPS, the warning light will illuminate on the
instrument cluster and the steering
efforts may be increased. When the fol-
lowing symptoms occur, immediately
drive the vehicle to a safe area and
check it.

If you need to recalibrate the compass:
1. Press and hold the button for morethan 9 seconds. When the compass
memory is cleared a "C" will appear in
the display.
2. Drive the vehicle in 2 complete circles at less than 5 mph (8 km/h).Integrated HomeLink®Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink®Wireless Control
System can replace up to three hand-
held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters
with a single built-in device. This innova-
tive 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 fol-
lowing the outlined procedures.
Additional HomeLink
®information can
be found at: www.homelink.com or by
calling 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 sug-
gested that upon the sale of the vehicle,
the programmed HomeLink
®buttons be
erased for security purposes.
Before programming HomeLink®to
a garage door opener or gate oper-
ator, make sure people and objects
are out of the way of the device to
prevent potential harm or damage.
Do not use the HomeLink
®with any
garage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse features
required by U.S. federal safety stan-
dards (this includes any garage
door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door
that cannot detect an object - sig-
naling 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" steps 5-7 to com-
plete the programming of a rolling
code equipped device (most com-
monly a garage door opener). 5. At the garage door opener receiver
(motor-head unit) in the garage, locate
the "learn" or "smart" button. This can
usually be found where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the motor-
head unit.
6. Firmly press and release the "learn" or "smart" button. (The name and color
of the button vary by manufacturer).
There are 30 seconds to initiate step

Repeat the "press/hold/release"
sequence a second time, and,
depending on the brand of the garage
door opener (or other rolling code
equipped device), repeat this
sequence a third time to complete the
programming process.
HomeLink

®Wireless Control System but-
ton (note steps 2 through 3 in the
Programming portion of this document)
while you press and re-press ("cycle")

onds until the frequency signal has been
learned. The indicator light will flash
slowly and then rapidly after several sec-
onds upon successful training.
Operating HomeLink®
To operate, simply press and release the
programmed HomeLink®button.
Activation will now occur for the trained
device (i.e. garage door opener, gate
