Safety Precautions
Adjusting the seats so that you are sit-
ting in a safe, comfortable position
plays an important role in driver and
passenger safety together with theseat belts and air bags in an accident.
Air bags
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Sitting too close to an air bag
greatly increases the risk of injury in
the event the air bag inflates.
Move your seat as far back as possi-
ble from front air bags, while still
maintaining control of the vehicle.
Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before
starting any trip.
At all times, passengers should sit
upright and be properly restrained.
Infants and small children must be
restrained in appropriate child restraint
systems. Children who have outgrown
a booster seat and adults must be
restrained using the seat belts.
Do not use a cushion thatreduces friction between the seat
and the passenger. The passen-
ger's hips may slide under the
lap portion of the seat belt during
an accident or a sudden stop.Serious or fatal internal injuriescould result because the seat
belt cannot operate properly.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following pre-cautions:
•Adjust the driver’s seat as far
to the rear as possible whilemaintaining the ability to
maintain full control of the
vehicle.
Adjust the front passenger seat as far to the rear as pos-
sible.
Hold the steering wheel by the
rim with hands at the 9 o’clock
and 3 o’clock positions to
minimize the risk of injuries to
your hands and arms.
NEVER place anything or any- one between the steering
wheel and the air bag.
Do not allow the front passen-
ger to place feet or legs on the
dashboard to minimize therisk of leg injuries.

Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
When the seatback is reclined, the
shoulder belt is not as effective
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’ships will slide under the lap belt or
the passenger’s neck will strike theshoulder 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.
Power adjustment
The front seat can be adjusted by
using the control switches located on
the outside of the seat cushion. Before
driving, adjust the seat to the proper
position so that you can easily control
the steering wheel, foot pedals and
controls on the instrument panel.
Safety system of your vehicle
OLF034004N NEVER allow children in the
vehicle unattended. The power
seats are operable when the
engine is turned off.

Where Are the Air Bags?
Driver's and passenger's frontair bags
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Advanced Supplemental RestraintSystem (SRS) and lap/shoulder belts
at both the driver and passenger
seating positions. The SRS consists of air bags which are located in the center of the steer-
ing wheel, in the driver’s side lower
crash pad below the steering wheel
column and the passenger’s side
front panel pad above the glove box. The air bags are labeled with the let-
ters "AIR BAG" embossed on the
pad covers. The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the vehicle’s driver and front passen-gers with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt system
alone. The SRS uses sensors to
gather information about the driver’s
and front passenger’s seat belt
usage and impact severity.
The seat belt buckle sensors deter-
mine if the driver and front passen-
ger’s seat belts are fastened. These
sensors provide the ability to control
the SRS deployment based on
whether or not the seat belts are fas-
tened, and how severe the impact is.
The advanced SRS offers the ability to control the air bag inflation within
two levels. A first stage level is pro-
vided for moderate-severity impacts.
A second stage level is provided for
more severe impacts.
According to the impact severity, and
seat belt usage, the SRS ControlModule (SRSCM) controls the air
bag inflation. Failure to properly wear
seat belts can increase the risk or
severity of injury in an accident.

Side air bags
Your vehicle is equipped with a side
air bag in each front seat. The pur-
pose of the air bag is to provide the
vehicle’s driver and the front passen-ger with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt alone.

To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
front air bags, take the followingprecautions:
Seat belts must be worn at all times to help keep occupants
positioned properly.
Move your seat as far back as
possible from front air bags,
while still maintaining control
of the vehicle.
Never lean against the door or
center console.
Do not allow the front passen-
ger to place their feet or legs
on the dashboard.
No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular phone holder,
cup holder, perfume or stick-
ers) should be placed over or
near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument
panel, windshield glass, and
the front passenger's panel
above the glove box.(Continued)
(Continued)
Such objects could cause
harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause
the air bags to deploy.
Do not attach any objects on
front windshield and inside
mirror.

The side air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side
impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed andpoint of impact.
The side and curtain air bags on
both sides of the vehicle may deploy
if a rollover or possible rollover isdetected. The side air bags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact or rollover
situations.To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
side air bag, take the follo wing
precautions:
Seat belts must be worn at all times to help keep occupants
positioned properly.
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 doorsand seats.
(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
Hold the steering wheel at the
9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi-
tions, to minimize the risk of
injuries to your hands andarms.
Do not use any accessory
seat covers. This could reduce
or prevent the effectivenessof the system.
Do not place any objects over
the air bag or between the air
bag and yourself. Also, do not
attach any objects around the
area the air bag inflates such
as the door, side door glass,
front and rear pillar.
Do not place any objects between the door and the
seat. They may become dan-
gerous projectiles if the side
air bag inflates.
Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side air
bags.(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not put any objects
between the side air bag label
and seat cushion. It could
cause harm if the vehicle is in
a crash severe enough to
cause the air bags to deploy.
Do not cause impact to the
doors when the ignition
switch is in the ON position or
this may cause the side air
bags to inflate.
If the seat or seat cover is
damaged, have the vehicle
checked and repaired by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

To help provide protection, the airbags must inflate rapidly. The speed of air bag inflation is a con-
sequence of extremely short timein which to inflate the air bag
between the occupant and the
vehicle structures before the occu-
pant impacts those structures. This
speed of inflation reduces the risk
of serious or life-threatening
injuries and is thus a necessary
part of air bag design.
However, the rapid air bag inflation
can also cause injuries which can
include facial abrasions, bruises
and broken bones because theinflation speed also causes the air
bags to expand with a great deal of
force.
There are even circumstances under which contact with the air
bag can cause fatal injuries, espe-cially if the occupant is positioned
excessively close to the air bag.
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. The greatest risk is sitting too
close to the air bag. An air bag needs
space to inflate. It is recommended that drivers sit as
far as possible between the center of
the steering wheel and the chest while
still maintaining control of the vehicle.
When the SRSCM detects a suffi-
ciently severe impact to the front of
the vehicle, it will automatically
deploy the front air bags.

■Driver’s front air bag (1)
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following pre-cautions:
NEVER place a child restraint
in the front passenger seat.
Always properly restrain chil-
dren under age 13 in the rear
seats of the vehicle.
Adjust the front passenger's
and driver’s seats as far to the
rear as possible while allow-
ing you to maintain full con-
trol of the vehicle.
Hold the steering wheel with
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3
o'clock positions.
Never place anything or any-
one between the air bag andthe seat occupant.
Do not allow the front passen-
ger to place their feet or legs
on the dashboard.
