Seatback angle
OAC3039003R
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 lever and make sure
the seatback is locked in place.
(The lever MUST return to its origi-
nal position for the seatback to
lock.)Reclining seatback
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.
WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seat-
back 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.
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 shoul-
der belt.

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
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.

Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge
OJS048104L
This gauge indicates the temperature
of the engine coolant when the igni-
tion switch is in the ON position.
NOTICE
If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the
“130” position, it indicates over-
heating that may damage the
engine.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. If your vehicle
overheats, refer to “If the Engine
Overheats” in chapter 7.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap or
reservoir cap when the engine is
hot. The engine coolant is under
pressure and could cause severe
burns. Wait until the engine is cool
before adding coolant to the reser-
voir.
Fuel Gauge
OAC3049005R
This gauge indicates the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel
tank.
i Information
‡ 7he fuel tank capacity is given in
chapter 2.
‡ 7he fuel gauge is supplemented by a
low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
‡ 2n inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank.
