Safety system of your vehicle
NEVER let the use of a mobile devicedistract you from driving. You have a
responsibility to your passengers and
others on the road to always drive
safely, with your hands on the wheel
as well as your eyes and attention on
the road.Control your speed
Excessive speed is a major factor in
crash injuries and deaths. Generally,
the higher the speed, the greater the
risk, but serious injuries can also
occur at lower speeds. Never drive
faster than is safe for current condi-
tions, regardless of the maximum
speed posted.
Keep your vehicle in safe condi-
tion
Having a tyre blowout or a mechanical
failure can be extremely hazardous. To
reduce the possibility of such prob-
lems, check your tyre pressures and
condition frequently, and perform all
regularly scheduled maintenance.

2. Pull the tongue plate (B) and insert it into the buckle (B’) until an
audible “click” is heard, indicating
the latch is locked. Make sure the
belt is not twisted.
When using the rear centre seat belt,
the buckle with the “CENTER” mark
must be used.
Information
If you are not able to pull out the safe-
ty belt from the retractor, firmly pull
the belt out and release it. After
release, you will be able to pull the belt
out smoothly.
Pre-tensioner seat belt (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with driver's
and front passenger's and rear pas-
senger’s (if equipped) Pre-tensioner
Seat Belts (Retractor Pretensioner).
The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to
make sure the seat belts fit tightly
against the occupant's body in cer-
tain frontal collisions. The pre-ten-
sioner seat belts may be activated in
crashes where the frontal collision is
severe enough, together with the air
bags. When the vehicle stops suddenly, or
if the occupant tries to lean forward
too quickly, the seat belt retractor will
lock into position. In certain frontal
collisions, the pre-tensioner will acti-
vate and pull the seat belt into tighter
contact against the occupant's body.
If the system senses excessive tension
on the driver or passenger's seat belt
when the pre-tensioner system acti-
vates, the load limiter (if equipped)
inside the retractor pre-tensioner will
release some of the pressure on the
affected seat belt.

How does the air bags system
operate?
The SRS consists of the following
components:
(1) Driver's front air bag module/Driver's knee air bag module
(2) Passenger's front air bag module
(3) Side air bag modules/ Side impact sensors
(4) Curtain air bag modules
(5) F ront retractor pre-tensioner/
Rear retractor pre-tensioner
assemblies (if equipped)
(6) Air bag warning light
(7) SRS control module (SRSCM) (8) Front impact sensors
(9) Side pressure sensors
(10) Passenger’s front air bag
ON/OFF indicator
(front passenger's seat only)
(11) Passenger’s front air bag ON/OFF switch
The SRSCM continually monitors all
SRS components whilst the ignition
switch is ON to determine if a crash
impact is severe enough to require
air bag deployment or pre-tensioner
seat belt deployment.
(Continued)
Properly secure Child Restraint
System as far away from the
door as possible.
Do not place any objects over
the air bag. Also, do not attach
any objects around the area the
air bag inflates such as the
door, side door glass, front and
rear pillar, roof side rail.
Do not hang other objects
except clothes, especially
hard or breakable objects. In
an accident, it may cause
vehicle damage or personal
injury.
Do not allow passengers to
lean their heads or bodies
onto doors, put their arms on
the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place
objects between the doors
and seats.
Do not open or repair the side
curtain air bags.

When the SRSCM detects a suffi-
ciently severe impact to the front of
the vehicle, it will automatically
deploy the front air bags.Upon deployment, tear seams mold-
ed directly into the pad covers will
separate under pressure from the
expansion of the air bags. Further
opening of the covers allows full
inflation of the air bags.
A fully inflated air bag, in combina-
tion with a properly worn seat belt,
slows the driver's or the front pas-
senger's forward motion, reducing
the risk of head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag
immediately starts deflating, enabling
the driver to maintain forward visibili-
ty and the ability to steer or operate
other controls.

3. Pull the fuel filler door (1) out tofully open.
4. To remove the fuel tank cap (2), turn it anticlockwise. You may hear
a hissing noise as the pressure
inside the tank equalizes.
5. Place the cap on the fuel filler door.
Information
If the fuel filler door does not open
because ice has formed around it, tap
lightly or push on the door to break
the ice and release the door. Do not
pry on the door. If necessary, spray
around the door with an approved de-
icer fluid (do not use radiator anti-
freeze) or move the vehicle to a warm
place and allow the ice to melt.
Closing the fuel filler door
1. To install the fuel tank cap, turn it clockwise until it “clicks” one time.
2. Close the fuel filler door until it is latched securely.

SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station.
Before refuelling, note the
location of the Emergency
Petrol Shut-Off, if available, at
the gas station.
Before touching the fuel noz-
zle, you should eliminate the
potential build-up of static
electricity by touching a metal
part of the vehicle, a safe dis-
tance away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle, or other gas
source, with your bare hand.

(Continued)
Do not use mobile phones
whilst refuelling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from mobile phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapours
and cause a fire.
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refu-
elling. You can generate a
build-up of static electricity by
touching, rubbing or sliding
against any item or fabric capa-
ble of producing static electric-
ity. Static electricity discharge
can ignite fuel vapours causing
a fire. If you must re-enter the
vehicle, you should once again
eliminate potentially danger-
ous static electricity discharge
by touching a metal part of the
vehicle, away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle or other petrol
source, with your bare hand.(Continued)

Seat Belt Warning Light
This warning light informs the driver
that the seat belt is not fastened.
For more information, refer to
“Seat Belts” in chapter 2.
Parking Brake & BrakeFluid Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
Once you turn the ignition switch or
the Engine Start/Stop button to the
ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3seconds
- It remains on if the parking brake is applied.
When the parking brake is applied.
When the brake fluid level in the reservoir is low.
- If the warning light illuminateswith the parking brake released, it
indicates the brake fluid level in
the reservoir is low.
not operate.
If the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir is low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the engine stopped, check the brake fluid level immediately and
add fluid as required (For more
information, refer to “Brake
Fluid” in chapter 7) . After adding
brake fluid, check all brake compo-
nents for fluid leaks. If a brake fluid
leak is found, or if the warning light
remains on, or if the brakes do not
operate properly, do not drive the
vehicle. We recommend that you
have the vehicle inspected by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking systems. This
means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual sys-
tems should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal
travel and greater pedal pressure is
required to stop the vehicle.
