Safety Precautions
Adjusting the seats so that you are sitting
in a safe and comfortable position plays
an important role for the safety of the
driver and passengers as much as seat
belts and airbags when in an accident.
WARNING Do not use a cushion that reduces friction
between the seat and the passenger. The
passenger’s hips may slide under the lap
portion of the seat belt during an accident
or a sudden stop.
Serious or fatal internal injuries could
result because the seat belt cannot
operate properly.

Airbags
You can take steps to reduce the risk of
being injured by an inflating airbag.
Sitting too close to an airbag greatly
increases the risk of injury in the event the
airbag inflates. Move your seat as far back
as possible from front airbags while still
maintaining control of the vehicle.
WARNING To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating airbag, take the
following precautions:
• Adjust the driver’s seat as far to the rear as possible while maintaining the ability
to control the vehicle.
• Adjust the front passenger seat as far to the rear as possible.
• Hold the steering wheel by the rim with your 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 anyone between you and the airbag.
• Do not allow the front passenger to place feet or legs on the dashboard to
minimize the risk of leg injuries.

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, or pets to ride on 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
WARNING Take the following precautions when
adjusting your seat:
• NEVER attempt to adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving. The seat could
respond with unexpected 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.

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 fastened their
seat belts before starting any trip. Airbags
are designed to supplement the seat belt
as an additional safety device, not a
replacement. Most states 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 precautions
when adjusting and wearing seat belts:
• Children under the age of 13 should be properly restrained in the rear seats.
• Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat, unless the airbag is
deactivated. If a child is seated in the
front passenger seat, move the seat as
far back as possible. And the child must
always be restrained in the seat
properly.
• NEVER allow an infant or child to be carried on an occupant’s lap.
• NEVER ride with the seatback reclined when the vehicle is moving.
• 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 fragile 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 webbing or hardware is damaged. • Do not latch the seat belt into the
buckles of other seats.
• NEVER unfasten the seat belt while 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, because any materials in
the buckle can cause the seat belt not
to be fastened securely.
• No modifications or additions should be made by the user which will either
prohibit the seat belt adjusting devices
from operating to remove slack, or
prohibit the seat belt assembly from
being adjusted to remove slack.

WARNING Damaged seat belts and seat belt
assemblies will not operate properly.
Always replace:
• Frayed, contaminated, or damaged webbing.
• Damaged hardware.
• The entire seat belt assembly after it has been worn in an accident, even if
damage to webbing or assembly is not
apparent.

Seat Belt Restraint System
WARNING
B3001505
Improperly positioned seat belts may
increase the risk of serious injury in an
accident. Take the following precautions
when adjusting the seat belt:
• Position the lap portion of the seat belt as low as possible across your hips, not
on your waist, so that it fits snugly. This
allows your strong pelvic bones to
absorb the force of the crash, reducing
the chance of internal injuries.
• Position one arm under the shoulder belt and the other over the belt, as
shown in the illustration.
• Always position the shoulder belt anchor into the locked position at the
appropriate height.

pretensioners on both sides of the vehicle
may deploy if a rollover or possible
rollover is detected.
The side airbags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact or rollover
situations.
WARNING To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating side airbag, take
the following 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 doors and seats.
• Hold the steering wheel at the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock positions, to minimize the
risk of injuries to your hands and arms.
• Do not use any accessory seat covers. This could reduce or prevent the
effectiveness of the system.
• Do not hang other objects except clothes. In an accident it may cause
vehicle damage or personal injury
especially when airbag is inflated.
• Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag and
yourself. Also, do not attach any objects
around the area the airbag 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
dangerous projectiles if the side airbag
inflates.
• Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side airbags.
• Do not impact the doors when the Start/Stop button is in the ON or START
position as this may cause the side
airbags to inflate. • If the seat or seat cover is damaged,
have the system serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Curtain airbags
B3003301
B3003302
Curtain airbags 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 airbags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity.
For vehicles equipped with a rollover
sensor the side and/or curtain airbags and
pretensioners on both sides of the vehicle
may deploy if a rollover or possible
rollover is detected.
