VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCESS
No special break-in period is need-
ed. By following a few simple precau-
tions for the first 600 miles (1,000
km) you may add to the perform-
ance, economy and life of your vehi-
cle.
Do not race the engine.
While driving, keep your enginespeed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
Do not maintain a single vehicle speed for long periods of time,
either fast or slow. Varying the
engine speed is needed to proper-
ly break-in the engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emer- gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly. As with other vehicles of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle correct-
ly may result in loss of control, an
accident or vehicle rollover.
Specific design characteristics (high-
er ground clearance, track, etc.) give
this vehicle a higher center of gravity
than other types of vehicles. It is not
designed for cornering at the same
speeds as a conventional 2-wheel
drive sedans or sports coupe. Avoid
sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers.
Failure to operate this vehicle cor-
rectly may result in loss of control, an
accident or vehicle rollover.
Be sure
to read the "Reducing the risk of a
rollover" driving guidelines, in
section 5 of this manual.CALIFORNIA PROPO-

the ignition OFF.
Therefore, children should never
be left unattended in the vehicle.

Driver position memory system
(for power seat, if equipped)
A driver position memory system is
provided to store and recall the driv-
er seat and side view mirror position
with a simple button operation. By
saving the desired position into the
system memory, different drivers can
reposition the driver seat based upon
their driving preference. If the battery
is disconnected, the position memory
will be erased and the driving position
should be restored in the system.
WARNING
Never attempt to operate the
driver position memory system
while the vehicle is moving.
This could result in loss of con-
trol, and an accident causing
death, serious injury, or proper-
ty damage.

WARNING
For proper operation of the
occupant classification system:
Do not place any items cumu- latively weighing over 2.2 lbs
(1 kg) in the seatback pocket
or on the seat.

Seat belt restraint system
SEAT BELTS
WARNING
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis,
chest and shoulders, as appli-
cable; wearing the lap section
of the belt across the abdominal
area must be avoided.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Always wear both the shoul-der portion and lap portion of
the lap/shoulder belt.
Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A twisted belt can't do
its job as well. In a collision, it
could even cut into you. Be
sure the belt webbing is
straight and not twisted.
Be careful not to damage the belt webbing or hardware. If
the belt webbing or hardware
is damaged, replace it.
WARNING
For maximum restraint sys-tem protection, the seat belts
must always be used whenev-
er the car is moving.
Seat belts are most effective when seatbacks are in the
upright position.
Children age 12 and younger must always be properly
restrained in the rear seat.
Never allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat. If a
child over 12 must be seated
in the front seat, he/she must
be properly belted and the
seat should be moved as far
back as possible.
Never wear the shoulder belt under your arm or behind your
back. An improperly positioned
shoulder belt can cause seri-
ous injuries in a crash. The
shoulder belt should be posi-
tioned midway over your shoul-
der across your collarbone.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Seat belts should be adjusted
as firmly as possible, consis-
tent with comfort, to provide the
protection for which they have
been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce
the protection afforded to the
occupant.
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.

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 or blinks when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the ON
position, or after the engine is
started, comes on while driv-
ing, 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.

WARNING
If an air bag deploys, theremay be a loud noise followed
by a fine dust released in the
vehicle. These conditions are
normal and are not hazardous
- the air bags are packed in
this fine powder. The dust
generated during air bag
deployment may cause skin
or eye irritation as well as
aggravate asthma for some
persons. Always wash all
exposed skin areas thorough-
ly with cold water and a mild
soap after an accident in
which the air bags were
deployed.
The SRS can function only when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.

Transmitter precautions
✽ ✽NOTICE
The transmitter will not work if any
of following occur:
• The ignition key is in the ignition
switch.
• You exceed the operating distance limit (about 90 feet [30 m]).
• The battery in the transmitter is weak.
• Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
• The weather is extremely cold.
• The transmitter is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio substa-
tion or an airport which can inter-
fere with normal operation of the
transmitter.
When the transmitter does not work
correctly, open and close the door
with the ignition key. If you have a
problem with the transmitter, con-
tact an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er. (Continued)(Continued)
• If the transmitter is in close prox-
imity to your mobile phone, the
signal could be blocked by your
mobile phones normal operational
signals. This is especially impor-
tant when the phone is active such
as making and receiving calls, text
messaging, and/or sending/receiv-
ing emails. Avoid placing the
transmitter and your mobile
phone in the same pants or jacket
pocket and always try to maintain
an adequate distance between the
two devices.
CAUTION
Keep the transmither away from
water or any liquid and fire.
If the inside of the transmittergets damp (due to drinks ormoisture), or is heated, internalcircuit may malfunction.
