WARNING
Take the following precautions when
installing the top-tether:

[Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your Child
Restraint System.

[NEVER attach more than one Child
Restraint System to a single ISOFIX
top-tether anchorage. This could
cause the anchorage or attachment
to come loose or break.

[Do not attach the top-tether to
anything other than the correct top-
tether anchorage. It may not work
properly if attached to something
else.

[Child Restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
Child Restraint System.
Under no circumstances are they
to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle.
Securing a Child Restraint System
with a lap/shoulder belt
When not using the ISOFIX system, all
Child Restraint Systems must be secured
to a rear seat with the lap part of a lap/
shoulder belt.

2. Fasten the lap/shoulder belt latch
into the buckle. Listen for the distinct
“click” sound.
i Information
Position the release button so that it is
easy to access in case of an emergency.
OHI038183L
3. Remove as much slack from the
belt as possible by pushing down
on the Child Restraint System whilst
feeding the shoulder belt back into the
retractor.
4. Push and pull on the Child Restraint
System to confirm that the seat belt is
holding it firmly in place.
If your CRS manufacturer instructs
or recommends you use a top-tether
anchorage with the lap/shoulder belt,
see page 3-36.
To remove the Child Restraint System,
press the release button on the buckle
and then pull the lap/shoulder belt out
of the Child Restraint System and allow
the seat belt to retract fully.

Safety system
The vehicles are equipped with a
Supplemental Air Bag System for the
driver’s seat and front passenger’s seats.
The front air bags are designed to
supplement the three-point seat belts.
For these air bags to provide protection,
the seat belts must be worn at all times
when driving.
You can be severely injured or killed
in an accident if you are not wearing
a seat belt. Air bags are designed to
supplement seat belts, but do not
replace them. Also, air bags are not
designed to deploy in every collision. In
some accidents, the seat belts are the
only restraint protecting you. WARNING
AIR BAG SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS use seat belts and Child
Restraint Systems - every trip, every
time, everyone! Even with air bags, you
can be seriously injured or killed in a
collision if you are improperly belted or
not wearing your seat belt when the air
bag inflates.
NEVER place a child in any Child
Restraint Systems or booster seat in the
front passenger seat. An inflating air
bag could forcefully strike the infant or
child causing serious or fatal injuries.
ABC - Always Buckle Children under
age 13 in the back seat. It is the safest
place for children of any age to ride. If
a child age 13 or older must be seated
in the front seat, he or she must be
properly belted and the seat should be
moved as far back as possible.
All occupants should sit upright with
the seatback in an upright position,
centred on the seat cushion with
their seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and their feet on the floor
until the vehicle is parked and the
engine is turned off. If an occupant is
out of position during an accident, the
rapidly deploying air bag may forcefully
contact the occupant causing serious
or fatal injuries.
You and your passengers should never
sit or lean unnecessarily close to the air
bags or lean against the door or centre
console.
Move your seat as far back as possible
from front air bags, whilst still
maintaining control of the vehicle.

Curtain air bags (if equipped)
OAC3039021TU
OAC3039029R
Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front
and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear outboard seat occupants in
certain side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity.
The curtain air bags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact.
Do not hang heavy items on the coat
hooks for safety reasons.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating curtain air bags,
take the following precautions:

[All seat occupants must wear
seat belts at all times to help keep
occupants positioned properly.

[Properly secure child restraints as far
away from the door as possible.

[Do not place any objects over the air
bag. Also, do not attach any objects
around the area the air bag inflates
such as the door, side door glass,
front and rear pillar, roof side rail.

[Do not hang other objects except
clothes, especially hard or breakable
objects. In an accident, it may cause
vehicle damage or personal injury.

[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 doors and seats.

[Do not open or repair the side curtain
air bags.

Safety system
Do not install a Child Restraint
System on the front passenger
seat
OHI038169L
Never install a Child Restraint System in
the front passenger’s seat. An inflating air
bag can forcefully strike a child or restraint
resulting in serious or fatal injury.
WARNING

[Extreme hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing Child Restraint
System on a seat protected by an air
bag in front of it!

[NEVER use a rearward facing Child
Restraint System on a seat protected
by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it,
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the
CHILD can occur.

[Never put a Child Restraint System in
the front passenger’s seat. If the front
passenger air bag inflates, it would
cause serious or fatal injuries.
Why didn’t my air bag go off in a
collision?
There are certain types of accidents in
which the air bag would not be expected
to provide additional protection. These
include rear impacts, second or third
collisions in multiple impact accidents,
as well as low speed impacts. Damage to
the vehicle indicates a collision energy
absorption, and is not an indicator of
whether or not an air bag should have
inflated.
Air bag collision sensors
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag
deploying unexpectedly and causing
serious injury or death:

[Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where air bags
or sensors are installed.

[Do not perform maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors. If the
location or angle of the sensors is
altered, the air bags may deploy
when they should not or may not
deploy when they should.

[Installing bumper guards with non-
genuine Hyundai or non-equivalent
parts may adversely affect the
collision and airbag deployment
performance.
To ensure correct function of the
airbag system we recommend to
replace the bumper with genuine
HYUNDAI part or the equivalent (of
the genuine part) specified for your
vehicle.

[Place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF or ACC position, when the
vehicle is being towed to prevent
inadvertent air bag deployment.

[We recommend that all air bag
repairs are conducted by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.

IGNITION SWITCH
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, take the following
precautions:

[NEVER allow children or any person
who is unfamiliar with the vehicle to
touch the ignition switch or related
parts. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur.

[NEVER reach through the steering
wheel for the ignition switch, or any
other control, whilst the vehicle is in
motion. The presence of your hand
or arm in this area may cause a loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
Key ignition switch (if equipped)
OIB054010
WARNING

[NEVER turn the ignition switch to
the LOCK or ACC position whilst
the vehicle is in motion except in
an emergency. This will result in
the engine turning off and loss of
power assist for the steering and
brake systems. This may lead to loss
of directional control and braking
function, which could cause an
accident.

[Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the 1st gear when the vehicle
is parked on an uphill and in
R(Reverse) on a downhill (for manual
transmission vehicle), or P (Park, for
automatic transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) position, apply
the parking brake, and turn the
ignition switch to the LOCK position.
Unexpected vehicle movement may
occur if these precautions are not
followed.
NOTICE
Never use aftermarket keyhole covers.
This may generate start-up failure due
to communication failure.

[The dual clutch transmission
incorporates a dry-type dual clutch
mechanism, which allows for better
acceleration performance and
increased fuel efficiency whilst driving.
But it differs from a conventional
automatic transmission because
it does not incorporate a torque
converter. Instead, the transition from
one gear to the next is managed by
clutch slip, especially at lower speeds.
As a result, shifts are sometimes more
noticeable, and a light vibration can be
felt as the transmission shaft speed is
matched with the engine shaft speed.
This is a normal condition of the dual
clutch transmission.

[The dry-type clutch transfers torque
more directly and provides a direct-
drive feeling which may feel different
from a conventional automatic
transmission. This may be more
noticeable when launching the vehicle
from a stop or when traveling at low,
stop-and-go vehicle speeds.

[When rapidly accelerating from a
lower vehicle speed, the engine
rpm may increase dramatically as a
result of clutch slip as the dual clutch
transmission selects the correct gear.
This is a normal condition.

[When accelerating from a stop on an
incline, press the accelerator smoothly
and gradually to avoid any shudder
feeling or jerkiness.

[When traveling at a lower vehicle
speed, if you release the accelerator
pedal quickly, you may feel engine
braking before the transmission
changes gears. This engine braking
feeling is similar to operating a manual
transmission at low speed.

[When driving downhill, you may
wish to move the gear shift lever to
Manual Shift mode and downshift to
a lower gear in order to control your
speed without using the brake pedal
excessively.
[When you turn the engine on and off,
you may hear clicking sounds as the
system goes through a self-test. This
is a normal sound for the dual clutch
transmission.

[During the first 1000 miles (1,500 km),
you may feel that the vehicle may not
be smooth when accelerating at low
speed. During this break-in period, the
shift quality and performance of your
new vehicle is continuously optimized.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death:

[ALWAYS check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for people,
especially children, before shifting a
vehicle into D (Drive) or R (Reverse).

[Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position, then set
the parking brake, and place the
ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF
position. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur if these
precautions are not followed.

[Do not use aggressive engine braking
(shifting from a higher gear to a lower
gear) on slippery roads. This could
cause the tyres to slip and may result
in an accident.
