Seats & Safety System
3-6
Manual adjustment
The front seat can be adjusted by using 
the levers located underneath 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.
OOS037002
Forward and rearward adjustment
To move the seat forward or rearward:
1.  Pull up the seat slide adjustment lever 
and hold it.
2.  Slide the seat to the position you 
desire.
3.  Release the lever and make sure the 
seat is locked in place. Move forward 
and rearward without using the lever. 
If the seat moves, it is not locked 
properly.
OOS037003
Seatback angle
To recline the seatback:
1.  Lean forward slightly and lift up the 
seatback lever.
2.  Carefully lean back on the seat and 
adjust the seatback to the position 
you desire.
3.  Release the knob and make sure the 
seatback is locked in place.
Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the 
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous. 
Even when buckled up, the protections 
of your restraint system (seat belts 
and/or air bags) is greatly reduced by 
reclining your seatback.
 WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seatback 
when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback 
increases your chance of serious or fatal 
injuries in the event of a collision or 
sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should ALWAYS 
sit well back in their seats, properly 
belted, and with the seatbacks upright. 

03
3-7
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 
passenger’s neck will strike the shoulder 
belt.
OOS037004
Seat cushion height (for driver’s seat)
To change the height of the seat cushion:
Push down the lever several times, to 
lower the seat cushion.
Pull up the lever several times, to raise 
the seat cushion.
Power adjustment (if equipped)
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.
 WARNING
NEVER allow children in the vehicle 
unattended. The power seats are 
operable when the vehicle is turned off.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the seats:
Always stop adjusting the seats when 
the seat has been adjusted as far 
forward or rearward as possible.
Do not adjust the seats longer than 
necessary when the vehicle is turned 
off. This may result in unnecessary 
battery drain.
Do not operate two or more seats at 
the same time. This may result in an 
electrical malfunction.

Where are the air bags?
Driver’s and passenger’s front air 
bags

OOS037035
Passenger’s front air bag
OOS030055L
Your vehicle is equipped with a 
Supplemental Restraint System (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 steering 
wheel and the passenger’s side front 
panel pad above the glove box. 
The air bags are labeled with the letters 
“AIR BAG” embossed on the pad covers.
The purpose of the SRS is to provide the 
vehicle’s driver and front passengers with 
additional protection than that offered 
by the seat belt system alone in case of a 
frontal impact of sufficient severity.
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 determine 
if the driver and front passenger's seat 
belts are fastened. These sensors provide 
the ability to control the SRS deployment 
based on whether or not the seat belts are 
fastened, 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 provided 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 Control Module 
(SRSCM) controls the air bag inflation. 
Failure to properly wear seat belts can 
increase the risk or severity of injury in an 
accident.
 WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or 
death from inflating front air bags, take 
the following precautions:
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 passenger 
to place their feet or legs on the 
dashboard.
No objects (such as crash pad cover, 
mobile phone holder, cup holder, 
air fresheners or stickers) 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. 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 the 
front windshield and inside mirror.

Driver’s front air bag (3)
ODN8039079L
Passenger’s front air bag
ODN8039080L
After complete inflation, the air bag 
immediately starts deflating, enabling 
the driver to maintain forward visibility 
and the ability to steer or operate other 
controls.
 WARNING
To prevent objects from becoming 
dangerous projectiles when the 
passenger’s air bag inflates:
Do not install or place any objects 
(drink holder, CD holder, stickers, 
etc.) on the front passenger’s panel 
above the glove box where the 
passenger’s air bag is located.
Do not install a container of liquid 
air freshener near the instrument 
cluster or on the instrument panel 
surface.
What to expect after an air bag 
inflates
After a frontal or side air bag inflates, it 
will deflate very quickly. Air bag inflation 
will not prevent the driver from seeing 
out of the windshield or being able 
to steer. Curtain air bags may remain 
partially inflated for some time after they 
deploy.
 WARNING
After an air bag inflates, take the 
following precautions:
Open your windows and doors as 
soon as possible after impact to 
reduce prolonged exposure to the 
smoke and powder released by the 
inflating air bag.
Do not touch the air bag storage 
area’s internal components 
immediately after an air bag has 
inflated. The parts that come into 
contact with an inflating air bag may 
be very hot.
Always wash exposed skin areas 
thoroughly with cold water and mild 
soap.
We recommend that an authorized 
HYUNDAI dealer replace the air bag 
immediately after deployment. Air 
bags are designed to be used only 
once.

SMART mode
SMART mode selects the proper 
driving mode among NORMAL, 
ECO and SPORT by judging 
the driver's driving habits (i.e. 
mild or dynamic) from the 
brake pedal depression or the 
steering wheel operation.
Rotate the DRIVE MODE knob to 
activate SMART mode. When SMART 
mode is activated, the indicator 
illuminates on the instrument cluster.
The vehicle starts in SMART mode, 
when the engine was turned OFF in 
SMART mode.
SMART mode automatically controls 
gear shifting patterns, engine torque, 
in accordance with the driver's driving 
habits.
 Information
The driving mode automatically 
changes to ECO mode after a certain 
period of time, when you gently 
depress the accelerator pedal (Your 
driving is categorized to be mild.).
The driving mode automatically 
changes from SMART ECO mode to 
SMART NORMAL mode after a certain 
period of time, when you sharply or 
repetitively depress the accelerator 
pedal.
The driving mode automatically 
changes to SMART NORMAL mode 
with the same driving patterns, when 
the vehicle starts to drive on an 
upward slope of a certain angle. The 
driving mode automatically returns to 
SMART ECO mode, when the vehicle 
enters a leveled road.
The driving mode automatically 
changes to SMART SPORT, when 
you abruptly accelerate the vehicle 
or repetitively operate the steering 
wheel (Your driving is categorized 
to be sporty.). In this mode, your 
vehicle drives in a lower gear for 
abrupt accelerating/decelerating 
and increases the engine brake 
performance.
You may still sense the engine brake 
performance, even when you release 
the accelerator pedal in SMART 
SPORT mode. It is because your 
vehicle remains to be in a lower gear 
over a certain period of time for next 
acceleration. Thus, it is a normal 
driving situation, not indicating any 
malfunction.
The driving mode automatically 
changes to SMART SPORT mode 
only in harsh driving situations. In 
most of the normal driving situations, 
the driving mode sets to be either 
in SMART ECO mode or in SMART 
NORMAL mode.

A vehicle’s electrical system is protected 
from electrical overload damage by 
fuses.
This vehicle has 5 fuse panels, one 
located in the driver’s side panel bolster, 
the other in the engine compartment.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, 
accessories, or controls do not work, 
check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a 
fuse has blown, the element inside the 
fuse will be melted or broken.
If the electrical system does not work, 
first check the driver’s side fuse panel. 
Before replacing a blown fuse, turn the 
engine and all switches off, and then 
disconnect the negative battery cable. 
Always replace a blown fuse with one of 
the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this 
indicates an electrical problem. 
Avoid using the system involved. We 
recommend that you immediately 
consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
 WARNING
NEVER replace a fuse with anything but 
another fuse of the same rating.
A higher capacity fuse could cause 
damage and possibly cause a fire.
Do not install a wire or aluminum 
foil instead of the proper fuse - 
even as a temporary repair. It may 
cause extensive wiring damage and 
possibly a fire.
NOTICE
Do not use a screwdriver or any other 
metal object to remove fuses because 
it may cause a short circuit and damage 
the system.
