IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
You will find many safety precautions
and recommendations throughout
this section, and throughout this man-
ual. The safety precautions in this
section are among the most impor-
tant.
Always wear your seat belt
A seat belt is your best protection in
all types of accidents. Air bags are
designed to supplement seat belts,
not replace them. So even though
your vehicle is equipped with air
bags, ALWAYS make sure you and
your passengers wear your seat
belts, and wear them properly.
Restrain all children
All children under age 13 should ride
in your vehicle properly restrained in
a rear seat, not the front seat. Infants
and small children should be
restrained in an appropriate child
restraint. Larger children should use
a booster seat with the lap/shoulder
belt until they can use the seat belt
properly without a booster seat.
Air bag hazards
Whilst air bags can save lives, they
can also cause serious or fatal inju-
ries to occupants who sit too close to
them, or who are not properly
restrained. Infants, young children,
and short adults are at the greatest
risk of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Follow all instructions and warn-
ings in this manual.
Driver distraction
Driver distraction presents a serious
and potentially deadly danger, espe-
cially for inexperienced drivers.
Safety should be the first concern
when behind the wheel and drivers
need to be aware of the wide array of
potential distractions, such as drowsi-
ness, reaching for objects, eating,
personal grooming, other passen-
gers, and using mobile phones.
Drivers can become distracted when
they take their eyes and attention off
the road or their hands off the wheel
to focus on activities other than driv-
ing. To reduce your risk of distraction
and an accident:
‡ALWAYS set up your mobile devic-
es (i.e., MP3 players, phones, navi-
gation units, etc.) when your vehicle
is parked or safely stopped.
‡ONLY use your mobile device when
allowed by laws and conditions per-
mit safe use.
‡
NEVER text or email whilst driving.
Most countries have laws prohibit-
ing drivers from texting. Some
countries and cities also prohibit
drivers from using handheld
phones.
‡NEVER let the use of a mobile
device distract 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.

Safety system
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.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat belt:
‡NEVER use one seat belt for
more than one occupant.
‡Always position the seatback
upright with the lap portion of
the seat belt snug and low across
the hips.
‡NEVER allow children or small
infants to ride in a passenger’s
lap.
‡Do not route the seat belt across
your neck, across sharp edges,
or reroute the shoulder strap
away from your body.
‡Do not allow the seat belt to
become caught or jammed.
Front seats
The front seat can be adjusted by
using the control lever or 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 instru-
ment panel.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat:
‡NEVER attempt to adjust the seat
whilst the vehicle is moving. The
seat could respond with unex-
pected movement and may
cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
‡Do not place anything under the
front seats. Loose objects in the
driver’s foot area could interfere
with the operation of the foot
pedals, causing an accident.
‡Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with the normal position and
proper locking of the seatback.
‡Do not place a cigarette lighter
on the floor or seat. When you
operate the seat, gas may exit
out of the lighter causing a fire.
‡Use extreme caution when pick-
ing small objects trapped under
the seats or between the seat
and the centre console. Your
hands might be cut or injured by
the sharp edges of the seat
mechanism.

Seat warmers (if equipped)
Seat warmers are provided to warm
the seats during cold weather.
WARNING
The seat warmers can cause a
SERIOUS BURN, even at low tem-
peratures and especially if used
for long periods of time.
Passengers must be able to feel if
the seat is becoming too warm so
they can turn it off, if needed.
People who cannot detect temper-
ature change or pain to the skin
should use extreme caution, espe-
cially the following types of pas-
sengers:
‡Infants, children, elderly or dis-
abled persons, or hospital outpa-
tients.
‡People with sensitive skin or
who burn easily.
‡Fatigued individuals.
‡Intoxicated individuals.
‡People taking medication that
can cause drowsiness or sleepi-
ness.

SEAT BELTS
This section describes how to use the
seat belts properly. It also describes
some of the things not to do when
using seat belts.
Seat belt safety precautions
Always fasten your seat belt and
make sure all passengers have fas-
tened their seat belts before starting
any trip. Air bags (if equipped) are
designed to supplement the seat belt
as an additional safety device, but
they are not a substitute. Most coun-
tries require all occupants of a vehicle
to wear seat belts.
WARNING
Seat belts must be used by ALL
passengers whenever the vehicle
is moving. Take the following pre-
cautions when adjusting and wear-
ing seat belts:
‡ALWAYS properly restrain chil-
dren under age 13 in the rear
seats.
‡NEVER allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat. If a
child age 13 or older must be
seated in the front seat, move the
seat as far back as possible and
properly restrain them in the
seat.
‡NEVER allow an infant or child to
be carried on an occupant’s lap.
‡NEVER ride with the seatback
reclined when the vehicle is mov-
ing.
‡Do not allow children to share a
seat or seat belt.
‡Do not wear the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your
back.‡Never wear a seat belt over frag-
ile objects. If there is a sudden
stop or impact, the seat belt can
damage it.
‡Do not use the seat belt if it is
twisted. A twisted seat belt will
not protect you properly in an
accident.
‡Do not use a seat belt if the web-
bing or hardware is damaged.
‡Do not latch the seat belt into the
buckles of other seats.
‡NEVER unfasten the seat belt
whilst driving. This may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting
in an accident.
‡Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle interfering with the seat
belt latch mechanism. This may
prevent the seat belt from fasten-
ing securely.
‡No modifications or additions
should be made by the user
which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from oper-
ating to remove slack, or prevent
the seat belt assembly from
being adjusted to remove slack.
WARNING
Damaged seat belts and seat belt
assemblies will not operate prop-
erly. Always replace:
‡Frayed, contaminated, or dam-
aged webbing.
‡Damaged hardware.
‡The entire seat belt assembly
after it has been worn in an acci-
dent, even if damage to webbing
or assembly is not apparent.

Safety system
NOTICE
‡Pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in certain frontal or
side collisions or rollovers (if
equipped with rollover sensor).
‡When the pre-tensioner seat
belts are activated, a loud noise
may be heard and fine dust,
which may appear to be smoke,
may be visible in the passenger
compartment. These are normal
operating conditions and are not
hazardous.
‡Although it is non-toxic, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation
and should not be breathed for
prolonged periods. Wash all
exposed skin areas thoroughly
after an accident in which the
pre-tensioner seat belts were
activated.
Additional seat belt safety
precautions
Seat belt use during pregnancy
The seat belt should always be used
during pregnancy. The best way to
protect your unborn child is to protect
yourself by always wearing the seat
belt.
Pregnant women should always wear
a lap-shoulder seat belt. Place the
shoulder belt across your chest, rout-
ed between your breasts and away
from your neck. Place the lap belt
below your belly so that it fits SNUGLY
across your hips and pelvic bone,
under the rounded part of the belly.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death to an unborn child during
an accident, pregnant women
should NEVER place the lap portion
of the seat belt above or over the
area of the abdomen where the
unborn child is located.

Seat belt use and children
Infant and small children
Most countries have child restraint
laws which require children to travel
in approved child restraint devices,
including booster seats. The age at
which seat belts can be used instead
of child restraints differs among coun-
tries, so you should be aware of the
specific requirements in your country,
and where you are travelling. Infant
and child restraints must be properly
placed and installed in a rear seat.
For more details, refer to the “Child
Restraint Systems” in this chapter.
WARNING
ALWAYS properly restrain infants
and small children in a child restraint
appropriate for the child’s height
and weight.
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death to a child and other passen-
gers, NEVER hold a child in your lap
or arms when the vehicle is moving.
The violent forces created during an
accident will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against the
interior of the vehicle.
Small children are best protected
from injury in an accident when prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat by a
child restraint system that meets the
requirements of the Safety Standards
of your country. Before buying any
child restraint system, make sure that
it has a label certifying that it meets
Safety Standard of your country. The
restraint must be appropriate for your
child’s height and weight. Check the
label on the child restraint for this
information. Refer to “Child Restraint
Systems” in this chapter.
Larger children
Children under age 13 and who are
too large for a booster seat must
always occupy the rear seat and use
the available lap/shoulder belts. A
seat belt should lie across the upper
thighs and be snug across the shoul-
der and chest to restrain the child
safely. Check belt fit periodically. A
child’s squirming could put 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 system and/or seat
belts in the rear seat.
If a larger child over age 13 must be
seated in the front seat, the child
must be securely restrained by the
available lap/shoulder belt and the
seat should be placed in the rearmost
position.
If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child’s neck or face, try
placing the child closer to the centre
of the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck, they need
to be returned to an appropriate
booster seat in the rear seat.
WARNING
‡Always make sure larger chil-
dren’s seat belts are worn and
properly adjusted.
‡NEVER allow the shoulder belt to
contact the child’s neck or face.
‡Do not allow more than one child
to use a single seat belt.

3-28
Safety system
Seat belt use and injured people
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
Consult a physician for specific rec-
ommendations.
One person per belt
Two people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt.
This could increase the severity of
injuries in case of an accident.
Do not lie down
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be danger-
ous. Even when buckled up, the pro-
tections of your restraint system (seat
belts and/or air bags) is greatly
reduced by reclining your seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
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
passenger’s neck will strike the shoul-
der belt.
WARNING
‡NEVER ride with a reclined seat-
back when the vehicle is moving.
‡Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of seri-
ous or fatal injuries in the event
of a collision or sudden stop.
‡Driver and passengers should
always sit well back in their
seats, properly belted, and with
the seatbacks upright.
Care of seat belts
Seat belt systems should never be
disassembled or modified. In addi-
tion, care should be taken to assure
that seat belts and belt hardware are
not damaged by seat hinges, doors
or other abuse.
Periodic inspection
All seat belts should be inspected
periodically for wear or damage of
any kind. Any damaged parts should
be replaced as soon as possible.
Keep belts clean and dry
Seat belts should be kept clean and
dry. If belts become dirty, they can be
cleaned by using a mild soap solution
and warm water. Bleach, dye, strong
detergents or abrasives should not
be used because they may damage
and weaken the fabric.
When to replace seat belts
The entire seat belt assembly or
assemblies should be replaced if the
vehicle has been involved in an acci-
dent. This should be done even if no
damage is visible. We recommend
that you consult a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
