CAUTION: MODIFICATIONS TO YOUR HYUNDAI


Your Hyundai should not be modified in any way. Such modifications may adversely affect the performance, safety or durability of your Hyundai and may, in addition, violate conditions of the limited warranties covering the vehicle. Certain modifications may also be in violation of regulations established by the U.S. Department of Transportation and other federal or state agencies.


A080A01S-AAT


TWO-WAY RADIO OR CELLULAR TELEPHONE INSTALLATION


Your vehicle is equipped with electronic fuel injection and other electronic components. It is possible for an improperly installed/adjusted two-way radio or cellular telephone to adversely affect electronic systems. For this reason, we recommend that you carefully follow the radio manufacturer's instruc- tions or consult your Hyundai dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions if you choose to install one of these devices.

VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS


This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:


o How various systems in your vehicle were operating; o Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;


These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation. To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS


B010A02MC-AAT


Use Unleaded Gasoline


UNLEADED FUEL ONLY


B010A01MC-A Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher must be used in your Hyundai.


WARNING:


o Do not "top off" after the nozzle au- tomatically shuts off when refueling. o Tighten the cap until it clicks one " light will


time, otherwise the " illuminate.


o Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spillage in the event of an accident.


B010B01A-AAT


What About Gasohol? Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gasoline and 10% ethanol or grain alco- hol) may be used in your Hyundai. How- ever, if your engine develops driveability problems, the use of 100% unleaded gasoline is recommended. Fuels with unspecified quantities of alcohol, or alcohols other than ethanol, should not be used. Use of E85 fuel E85 fuel is an alternative fuel composed of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline, and is manufactured for use in Flexible Fuel Vehicles. E85 is not com- patible with your vehicle. Use of E85 may result in poor engine performance and damage to your vehicle's engine and fuel system. Damage resulting from the use of E85 is not covered under Hyundai war- ranties.


B010D01A-AAT


Do Not Use Methanol Fuels containing methanol (wood alco- hol) should not be used in your Hyundai. This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per- formance and damage components of the fuel system.


CAUTION:


Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited War- ranty may not cover damage to the fuel system and any performance problems that are caused by the use of fuels con- taining methanol.


B010E01A-AAT


Gasolines for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends you use gasolines treated with detergent additives, which help pre- vent deposit formation in the engine. These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and enhance performance of the Emission Control System.


B010F01A-AAT


Operation in Foreign Countries If you are going to drive your Hyundai in another country, be sure to:


o Observe all regulations regarding reg-


istration and insurance.


o Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-


able.


BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI


B020A01S-AAT


During the First 1200 Miles (2000
Km) No formal "break-in" procedure is required with your new Hyundai. However, you can contribute to the economical opera- tion and durability of your Hyundai by observing the following recommenda- tions during the first 1200 miles (2000
km).


o Whether going fast or slow, vary your


speed from time to time.


o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3


minutes at one time.


o Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200


miles (2,000 km) of operation.


o Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88 km/


h).


o While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute) be- tween 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.


o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start quickly or depress the accelerator pedal fully.


o For the first 200 miles (300 km), try to


avoid hard stops.


o Don't lug the engine (in other words, don't drive so slowly in too high a gear that the engine "bucks"-shift to a lower gear).

After adjusting the seat, always check that it is securely locked into place by attempting to move the seat forward or rearward without using the lock release lever. Sudden or unexpected move- ment of the driver's seat could cause you to lose control of the vehicle result- ing in an accident.


OMC029026
To move the seat toward the front or rear, pull the lock release lever upward. This will release the seat on its track so you can move it forward or rearward to the desired position. When you find the position you want, release the lever and slide the seat for- ward or rearward on its track until it locks into the desired position and cannot be moved further.

Adjusting Seatback Angle


OMC029027
To recline the seatback, lean forward to take your weight off it, then pull up on the recliner control lever at the outside edge of the seat. Now lean back until the de- sired seatback angle is achieved. To lock the seatback into position, release the recliner control lever.


! WARNING:


Riding with a reclined seatback in- creases your chance of serious or fatal injuries in the event of a collision or sudden stop. The protection of your restraint system (seat belts and airbags) is greatly reduced by reclining your seat. Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work properly. The more the seatback is reclined, the greater the chance that an occupant's hips will slide under the lap belt or the occupant's neck will strike the shoulder belt. Driv- ers and passengers should always sit well back in their seats, properly belted, and with the seatbacks upright.

Headrest


OBH038075L The driver's and front passenger's seats are equipped with a headrest for the occupant's safety and comfort. The headrest not only provides comfort for the driver and front passenger, but also helps to protect the head and neck in the event of a collision.


1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 16


! WARNING:


o For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the headrest should be adjusted so the middle of the headrest is at the same height as the center of gravity of an occupant's head. Generally, the center of grav- ity of most people's head is similar with the height of the top of their eyes. Also, adjust the headrest as close to your head as possible. For this reason, the use of a cushion that holds the body away from the seatback is not recommended.


o Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed as severe injury to the occupants may occur in the event of an accident. Headrests may provide protection against neck inju- ries when properly adjusted.


o Do not adjust the headrest position of the driver's seat while the vehicle is in motion.

Folding Rear Seatbacks The rear seatbacks may be folded to facilitate carrying long items or to increase the luggage capacity of the vehicle.


WARNING:


The purpose of the fold-down rear seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer objects than could otherwise be accom- modated. Never allow passengers to sit on top of the folded down seatback or cargo area while the car is moving as this is not a proper seating position and no seat belts are available for use. This could result in serious injury or death in case of an accident or sudden stop. Objects car- ried on the folded down seatback should not extend higher than the top of the front seats. This could allow cargo to slide forward and cause injury or damage during sudden stops.

SEAT BELTS


B150A02S-AAT


SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS


WARNING:


All occupants of the vehicle must wear their seat belts at all times. Seat belts and child restraints reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries for all occupants in the event of a collision or sudden stop. Without a seat belt, occupants could be shifted too close to a deploying airbag, strike the interior structure or be thrown from the vehicle. Properly worn seat belts greatly reduce these hazards. Even with advanced airbags, unbelted occu- pants can be severely injured by a de- ploying airbag. Always follow the pre- cautions about seat belts, airbags and occupant safety contained in this manual.


B150B03A-AAT


Infant or Small Child All 50 states have child restraint laws. You should be aware of the specific re- quirements in your state. Child and/or infant safety seats must be properly placed and installed in the rear seat. Information about the use of these restraints begins on page 1-31.


WARNING:


Every person in your vehicle needs to be properly restrained at all times, includ- ing infants and children. Never hold a child in your arms or lap when riding in a vehicle. The violent forces created dur- ing a crash will tear the child from your arms and throw the child against the interior. Always use a child restraint appropriate for your child's height and weight, see page 1-31.


NOTE: Small children are best protected from injury in an accident when properly re- strained in the rear seat by a child re- straint system that meets the require- ments of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Before buying any child restraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets Fed- eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213. The restraint must be appropriate for your child's height and weight. Check the label on the child restraint for this information. See page 1-31.

Larger Children Children who are too large for child re- straint systems should always occupy the rear seat and use the available lap/ shoulder belts. The lap portion should be fastened snug on the hips and as low as possible. 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 in the rear seat. If a larger child (over age 13) must be seated in the front seat, the child should be securely re- strained by the available lap/shoulder belt and the seat should be placed in the rearmost position. Children under the age of 13 should be restrained securely in the rear seat. NEVER place a child under the age of 13 in the front seat. NEVER place a rear facing child seat in the front seat of a vehicle.

C020302AKM


Restraint of pregnant women Pregnant women should wear lap/shoul- der belt assemblies whenever possible according to specific recommendations by their doctors. The lap portion of the belt should be worn AS SNUGLY AND LOW AS POSSIBLE on the hips, not a cross the abdomen.


! WARNING - Pregnant women


Pregnant women must never place the lap portion of the safety belt over the area of the abdomen where the fetus is located or above the abdomen where the belt could crush the fetus during an im- pact.


B150E01A-AAT


Injured Person A seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. When this is necessary, you should consult a physician for recommendations.


B150F01A-AAT


One Person Per Belt Two people (including children) should never attempt to use a single seat belt. This could increase the severity of inju- ries in case of an accident.


B150G02A-AAT


Do Not Lie Down To reduce the chance of injuries in the event of an accident and to achieve maxi- mum effectiveness of the restraint sys- tem, all passengers should be sitting up and the front seats should be in an up- right position when the car is moving. A seat belt cannot provide proper protec- tion if the person is lying down in the rear seat or if the front seat is in a reclined position.


WARNING:


Riding with a reclined seatback in- creases your chance of serious or fatal injuries in the event of a collision or sudden stop. The protection of your restraint system (seat belts and airbags) is greatly reduced by reclining your seat. Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work properly. The more the seatback is reclined, the greater the chance that an occupant's hips will slide under the lap belt causing serious internal injuries or the occupant's neck could strike the shoulder belt. Drivers and passengers should always sit well back in their seats, properly belted (see page 1-26), and with the seatbacks up- right.


B160A02A-AAT


CARE OF SEAT BELTS Seat belt systems should never be disas- sembled or modified. In addition, care should be taken to assure that seat belts and belt hardware are not damaged by seat hinges, doors or other abuse.


B160B01A-AAT


Periodic Inspection It is recommended that all seat belts be inspected periodically for wear or dam- age of any kind. Parts of the system that are damaged should be replaced as soon as possible.

HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE FRONT SEAT SHOULDER BELT


WARNING:


When you return the rear seatback to its upright position after the rear seatback was folded down, be careful not to dam- age the seat belt webbing or buckle. Be sure that the webbing or buckle does not get caught or pinched in the rear seat. A seat belt with damaged webbing or buckle will not be as strong and could possibly fail during a collision or sudden stop, resulting in serious injury.


B160C01A-AAT


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.


B160D01A-AAT


When to Replace Seat Belts Entire in-use seat belt assemblies should be replaced if the vehicle has been in- volved in an accident. This should be done even if no damage is visible. Addi- tional questions concerning seat belt operation should be directed to your Hyundai Dealer.


B170A01MC You can adjust the height of the shoulder belt anchor to one of the 4 positions for maximum comfort and safety. If the height of the seat belt is too near your neck, you will not be getting the most effective protection. The shoulder portion should be adjusted so that it lies across your chest and midway over your shoul- der nearest the door and not your neck. To adjust the height of the seat belt an- chor, lower or raise the height adjuster into an appropriate position. To raise the height adjuster, pull it up.


1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 26


To lower it, push it down while pressing the height adjuster button. Release the button to lock the anchor into position. Try sliding the height adjuster to make sure that it has locked into the position.


CAUTION:


o Adjust the shoulder belt height when


you sit well back in the seat.


OMC025042-1
o When adjusting the shoulder belt height, grip the height adjuster but- ton securely and slide the height adjuster up or down.


o If the shoulder belt anchor is not moved, grasp the shoulder part of the belt and pull forward to the full.


! WARNING:


o Verify the shoulder belt anchor is locked into position at the appropri- ate height. Never position the shoul- der belt across your neck or face. Improperly positioned seat belts can cause serious injuries in an acci- dent.


o Failure to replace seat belts after an accident could leave you with dam- aged seat belts that will not provide protection in the event of another collision leading to personal injury or death. Replace your seat belts after being in an accident as soon as pos- sible.

SEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and Rear Seat 3-Point System with Com- bination Locking Retractor : To Fasten Your Belt Combination retractor type seat belts are installed in the rear seat outboard and center positions to help accommodate the installation of child restraint systems. Hyundai strongly recommends that chil- dren always be seated in the rear seat. NEVER place any infant restraint system in the front seat of the vehicle. This type of seat belt combines the fea- tures of both an emergency locking re- tractor seat belt and an automatic locking retractor seat belt. To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert the metal tab into the buckle. There will be an audible "click" when the tab locks into the buckle. When not securing a child restraint, the seat belt operates in the same way as the driver's seat belt (Emer- gency Locking Retractor Type). It auto- matically adjusts to the proper length only after the lap belt portion of the seat belt is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly around your hips.


1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 28


When the seat belt is fully extended from the retractor to allow the installation of a child restraint system, the seat belt opera- tion changes to allow the belt to retract, but not to extend (Automatic Locking Retractor Type). See page 1-38.


NOTE: Although the combination retractor pro- vides the same level of protection for seated passengers in either emergency or automatic locking modes, it is recom- mended that seated passengers use the emergency locking feature for improved convenience. The automatic locking function is intended to facilitate child restraint installation. To convert from the automatic locking feature to the emergency locking operation mode, al- low the unbuckled seat belt to fully re- tract.


! WARNING:


o For maximum restraint system pro- tection, seat belts must always be used whenever the car is moving.


o Seat belts are most effective when seatbacks are in the upright posi- tion.


! WARNING:


o Children age 12 and younger must always be properly restrained in the rear seat. Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. If a child over 13 must be seated in the front seat, he/she must be properly belted and the seat should be moved as far back as possible.


o Never wear the shoulder belt under your arm or behind your back. An improperly positioned shoulder belt can cause serious injuries in a crash. The shoulder belt should be posi- tioned midway over your shoulder across your collarbone.


o Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A twisted belt can't do its job as well. In a collision, it could even cut into you. Be sure the belt webbing is straight and not twisted.


o Be careful not to damage the belt webbing or hardware. If the belt web- bing or hardware is damaged, re- place it.

B230A05A-AAT Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be properly restrained to minimize the risk of injury in an accident, sudden stop or sudden maneuver. According to accident statis- tics provided by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), children are safer when properly re- strained in the rear seats than in the front seat. Larger children not in a child re- straint should use one of the seat belts provided. All 50 states have child restraint laws. You should be aware of the specific re- quirements in your state. Child and/or infant safety seats must be properly placed and installed in the rear seat. You must use a commercially available child re- straint system that meets the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan- dards (FMVSS). Child restraint systems are designed to be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt, or by a LATCH system. Children could be injured or killed in a crash if their restraints are not properly secured.


B220D05MC To disconnect the metal tab (A) from the buckle (B), insert a narrow-ended tool into the groove located on the buckle (B).


WARNING:


Always lock metal tab (A) into buckle (B) immediately after returning the rear seatbacks to an upright position. This portion of the rear center seat belt should only be unbuckled when the rear seatback is folded down.


1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 32


For small children and babies, a child seat or infant seat must be used. Before buying a particular child restraint system, make sure it fits your car seat and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all the instructions provided by the manufacturer when installing the child restraint system.


WARNING:


o A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat. Never install a child or infant seat on the front passenger's seat. Should an accident occur and cause the passenger side airbag to deploy, it could severely injure or kill an infant or child seated in an infant or child seat. Thus, only use a child restraint in the rear seat of your vehicle.


o Since a safety belt or child restraint system can become very hot if it is left in a closed vehicle, be sure to check the seat cover and buckles before placing a child there.


WARNING:


o When the child restraint system is not in use, store it in the trunk or fasten it with a safety belt so that it will not be thrown forward in case of a sudden stop or an accident.


o Children may be seriously injured or killed by an inflating airbag. All chil-
