OWNER'S MANUAL A030A03E-AAT Operation Maintenance Specifications All information in this Owner's Manual is current at the time of publication. However, Hyundai reserves the right to make changes at any time so that our policy of continual product improvement may be carried out. This manual applies to all Hyundai ELANTRA models and includes descriptions and explanations of optional as well as standard equipment. As a result, you may find material in this manual that does not apply to your specific vehicle. HXDFL280 A070A01A-AAT 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 instructions or consult your Hyundai dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions if you choose to install one of these devices. A090A01A-AAT SAFETY AND VEHICLE DAMAGE WARNING This manual includes information titled as WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE. These titles indicate the following: WARNING: CAUTION: This indicates that a condition may result in harm, serious injury or death to you or other persons if the warning is not heeded. Follow the advice provided with the warning. This indicates that a condition may result in damage to your vehicle or its equipment if the caution is not heeded. Follow the advice provided with the caution. NOTE: This indicates that interesting or helpful information is being provided. A110A01A-AAT VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with many high technology, electronically controlled systems that help to ensure your vehicle operates properly and provides the performance that you expect. These systems utilize computers to monitor the operation of various systems and components and help to control their operation. These computerized system operations are wide-ranging and involve components to reduce emissions, to continuously evaluate the readiness of the airbag and seat belt pretensioner systems, to determine when the airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner systems should be deployed and then to activate the deployment, and if equipped, to operate anti-lock braking, traction control and electrical stability control to assist the driver to control the vehicle in difficult driving situations. These systems electronically store information that is useful to service technicians when they need to diagnose and repair these systems. Additional information is stored only when a crash occurs that results in the deployment of the airbags or seat belt pre-tensioners. This type of data storage is done by devices called event data recorders(EDR). After a crash event, the airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner computer system, known as the Supplemental Restraint System Control Module (SRSCM) or Airbag Control Unit (ACU), may record some information about the condition of the vehicle and how it was being operated. This information consists of data related to seat belt usage and if there was diagnostic information in the airbag or seat belt systems at the time that a crash occurred, and if the ACU sensed that a crash of sufficient severity occurred to require seat belt pre-tensioner or airbag deployment. To retrieve this information, special equipment is needed and access to the vehicle or the device that stores the data is required. Hyundai will not access information about a crash event or share it with others except: o in response to an official request of police or similar government office, or o with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if the vehicle is leased, with the consent of the lessee, or o as part of Hyundai’s defense of litigation, or o as required by law. A040A01A-AAT FOREWORD Thank you for choosing Hyundai. We are pleased to welcome you to the growing number of discriminating people who drive Hyundais.

B010D01A-AAT Do Not Use Methanol Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gasoline and 10% ethanol or grain alcohol) may be used in your Hyundai. However, if your engine devel- ops 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. B010C01A-AAT Use of MTBE Hyundai recommends that fuels containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) should not be used in your Hyundai. Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may reduce vehicle per- formance and produce vapor lock or hard starting. UNLEADED FUEL ONLY B010A03E 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 auto- matically shuts off when refueling. o Tighten the cap until it clicks, otherwise the " " light will illuminate. o Always check that the fuel cap is in- stalled securely to prevent fuel spillage in the event of an accident. Fuels containing methanol (wood alcohol) should not be used in your Hyundai. This type of fuel can reduce vehicle performance 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 containing methanol or fuels containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol.

REAR SEAT WARNING SEAT BELTS FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 17 B140A01S-AAT B150A02E-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 occupants can be severely in- jured by a deploying airbag. Always follow the precautions about seat belts, airbags and occupant safety contained in this manual. B140A01E For the safety of all passengers, luggage or other cargo should not be piled higher than the top of the seatback. In addition, do not place objects on the rear shelf as they may move forward during braking or in an accident and may strike and injure vehicle passengers. WARNING: o The purpose of the fold down rear seat back and the fold forward rear seat cush- ion is to increase cargo space. Do not allow passengers to sit in the cargo area while the car is moving. This is not a proper seating position and no seat belts are available for use when the seat back is folded down. Passengers who are not properly seated and wearing seat belts could sustain serious injuries or death in case of an accident or a sudden stop. o Objects should not extend higher than the top of the front seatbacks. This could allow cargo to slide forward and cause injury or damage during sudden stops. o When you return the folded down seat back to its upright position, always be sure to place the rear seat belt buckles on the seat cushion below the seatback. o When you return the folded down seatback to its upright position, always be sure to install the headrests in their proper positions. Headrests are impor- tant to the safety of occupants in a rear collision. If the headrests are not in- stalled in their proper position, serious injury or death could result if a rear end collision occurs. 1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 18 B150B04Y-AAT Infant or Small Child All 50 states have child restraint laws. You should be aware of the specific requirements 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 1-24. WARNING: Every person in your vehicle needs to be properly restrained at all times, including infants and children. Never hold a child in your arms or lap when riding in a vehicle. The violent forces created during 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 1-24. NOTE: Small children are best protected from in- jury in an accident when properly restrained in the rear seat by a child restraint system that meets the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Before buying any child restraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan- dard 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 1-24. B150C03A-AAT Larger Children Children who are too large for child restraint 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 posi- tion. 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 restrained 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. B150D01S-AAT Pregnant Women The use of a seat belt is recommended for pregnant women to lessen the chance of injury in an accident. When a seat belt is used, it should be placed as low and snugly as possible on the hips, not across the abdomen. For specific recommendations, consult a physician. B150E01A-AAT Injured Person A seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. When this is nec- essary, 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 injuries 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 maximum effective- ness of the restraint system, all passengers should be sitting up and the front seats should be in an upright position when the car is moving. A seat belt cannot provide proper protection 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 increases 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 prop- erly. 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 1-21), and with the seatbacks upright. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 19 B160A02A-AAT CARE OF SEAT BELTS B160B01A-AAT Periodic Inspection Seat belt systems should never be disassembled 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. It is recommended that all seat belts be in- spected periodically for wear or damage of any kind. Parts of the system that are damaged should be replaced as soon as possible. WARNING: When you return the rear seatback to its upright position after the rear seatback was folded down, be careful not to damage 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 seri- ous 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 assembly or assemblies should be replaced if the vehicle has been involved in an accident. This should be done even if no damage is visible. Additional ques- tions concerning seat belt operation should be directed to your Hyundai Dealer. 1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 20 B170A05A-AAT HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE FRONT SEAT SHOULDER BELT Release the button to lock the anchor into position. Try sliding the height adjuster to make sure that it has locked into position. WARNING: o Verify the shoulder belt anchor is locked into position at the appropriate height. Never position the shoulder belt across your neck or face. Improperly posi- tioned seat belts can cause serious inju- ries in an accident. o Failure to replace seat belts after an accident could leave you with damaged seat belts that will not provide protec- tion in the event of another collision leading to personal injury or death. Replace your seat belts after being in an accident as soon as possible. B170A01E You can adjust the height of the shoulder belt anchor to one of 4 positions for maximum comfort and safety. If the height of the adjusting 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 shoulder nearest the door and not your neck. To adjust the height of the seat belt anchor, lower or raise the height adjuster into an appro- priate position. To raise the height adjuster, pull it up. To lower it, push it down while pressing the height adjuster button. B180A01L-AAT SEAT BELT-Driver's 3-Point System with Emergency Locking Retractor 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. The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper length only after the lap belt portion is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly around your hips. If you lean forward in a slow, easy motion, the belt will extend and let you move around. If there is a sudden stop or impact, the belt will lock into position. It will also lock if you try to lean forward too quickly. Check to make sure that the belt is properly locked and that the belt is not twisted. NOTE: If the driver's seat belt is not fastened when the ignition key is in the "ON" position, the seat belt warning light will come on and the warning chime will sound for about 6 sec- onds. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 21 B190A02Y-AAT SEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and Rear Seat 3-Point System with Combination Locking Retractor B180A01L Combination retractor type seat belts are in- stalled in the rear seat outboard positions to help accommodate the installation of child restraint systems. Although a combination retractor is also installed in the front passenger seat posi- tion, 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 features of both an emergency locking retractor 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 (Emergency Locking Retrac- tor Type). It automatically 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. When the seat belt is fully extended from the retractor to allow the instal- lation of a child restraint system, the seat belt operation changes to allow the belt to retract, but not to extend. (Automatic Locking Retractor Type). See page 1-28. NOTE: Although the combination retractor pro- vides the same level of protection for seated passengers in either emergency or auto- matic locking modes, it is recommended 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, allow the unbuckled seat belt to fully re- tract. WARNING: o For maximum restraint system protec- tion, seat belts must always be used whenever the car is moving. o Seat belts are most effective when seatbacks are in the upright position. o Children age 12 and younger must al- ways 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 se- rious injuries in a crash. The shoulder belt should be positioned 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 web- bing or hardware. If the belt webbing or hardware is damaged, replace it. 1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 22 B200A01A-AAT Adjusting Your Seat Belt B210A01A-AAT To Release the Seat Belt B220A03E-AAT SEAT BELTS - Center Rear Seat 3-Point System With Combination Locking Retractor 4DOOR B200A01L B210A01L The seat belt is released by pressing the re- lease button in the locking buckle. When it is released, the belt should automatically draw back into the retractor. If this does not happen, check the belt to be sure it is not twisted, then try again. 5DOOR WARNING: You should place the lap belt portion as low as possible and snugly across your hips, not on your waist. If the lap belt is located too high on your waist, it may increase the chance of injury in the event of a collision. Both arms should not be under or over the belt. Rather, one should be over and the other under, as shown in the illustration. Never wear the seat belt under the arm nearest the door. (c) (a) (b) (d) (c) (d) B220A01E B220B01E 1.

It will also lock if you try to lean forward too quickly. WARNING: o Never let anyone ride in the rear center seat without fastening all metal tabs and buckles as described in this section. This seat belt is designed to function as a typical 3-point restraint (lap/shoulder belt). Using only the shoulder portion or lap portion of the belt can result in seri- ous or fatal injuries in the event of a collision or sudden stop. o Never unlock the metal tab (a) and the buckle (b) with the following excep- tions. 1) In case of folding rear seatbacks down. 2) If transporting an object on the rear seat may cause damage to the rear seat center belt. o 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. To disconnect the metal tab (a) from the buckle (b), insert a narrow-ended tool into the groove located on the buckle (b). (4 DOOR only) B220A02Y FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 23 B220C01Y-AAT To Release the Seat Belt B220C01E When you want to release the seat belt, press the button in the locking buckle. WARNING: The rear seat center belt latching mecha- nism is different from those for the out- board rear seat shoulder belts. When fas- tening the outboard rear seat shoulder belts or the rear seat center belt, make sure they are inserted into the correct buckles to obtain maximum protection from the seat belt system and assure proper operation. 1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 24 CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM B230A04A-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 acci- dent statistics provided by the National High- way Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats than in the front seat. Larger children not in a child restraint should use one of the seat belts provided. All 50 states have child restraint laws. You should be aware of the specific requirements 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 restraint system that meets the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS). Children could be injured or killed in a crash if their restraints are not properly secured. 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 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 A safety belt or child restraint system can become very hot if it is left in a closed vehicle on a sunny day, even if the out- side temperature does not feel hot. Be sure to check the seat cover and buckles before placing a child there. 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 the case of a sudden stop or an accident. o Children may be seriously injured or killed by an inflating airbag. All children, even those too large for child restraints, must ride in the rear seat. WARNING: To reduce the chance or serious or fatal injuries: o Children of all ages are safer when re- strained in the rear seat. A child riding in the front passenger seat can be force- fully struck by an inflating airbag result- ing in serious or fatal injuries. o Always follow the instructions for in- stallation and use of the child restraint maker. o Always make sure the child seat is se- cured properly in the car and your child is securely restrained in the child seat. o Never hold a child in your arms or lap when riding in a vehicle. The violent forces created during a crash will tear the child from your arms and throw the child against the car’s interior. o Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the belt could press deep into the child causing seri- ous internal injuries. o Never leave children unattended in a vehicle – not even for a short time. The car can heat up very quickly, resulting in serious injuries to children inside. Even very young children may inadvertently cause the vehicle to move, entangle them- selves in the windows, or lock them- selves or others inside the vehicle. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 25 B230C03A-AAT Installing a Child Restraint System with "Tether Anchorage" System(4 Door) Three child restraint hook holders are located on the rear seat package tray. WARNING: o Seat belts can become very hot, espe- cially when the car is parked in direct sunlight. Always check seat belt buck- les before fastening them over a child. o Always store or secure a child seat, even when it is not in use. During a collision or sudden stop, the child seat could be thrown inside the vehicle. B230B03A-AAT Using a Child Restraint System with the "Tether Anchorage" System For small children and babies, the use of a child seat or infant seat is strongly recommanded and may be required in your state. This child seat or infant seat should be of appropriate size for the child and should be installed in accor- dance with the manufacturer's instructions. It is further recommanded that the seat be placed in the vehicle's rear seat. Your vehicle is provided with three child restraint hook holders for install- ing the child seat or infant seat. Tether anchor cover Child Restraint Hook Holder G230C02E 1. Open the tether anchor cover on the rear seat package tray. WARNING: o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, Hyundai recommends the use of an approved booster seat in the rear seat in order to raise the child's seating height so that the seat belt will properly fit the child. Before purchasing a booster seat, make sure that it meets applicable Fed- eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and that it is satisfactory for use with this vehicle. o Never allow two children, or any two persons, to use the same seat belt. o Children often squirm and reposition themselves improperly. Never let a child ride with the shoulder belt under their arm or behind their back. Always prop- erly position and secure children in rear seat. o Never allow a child to stand-up or kneel on the seat or floorboard of a moving vehicle. During a collision or sudden stop, the child can be violently thrown against the vehicles interior, resulting in serious injury. o Never use an infant carrier or a child safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback, it may not provide adequate security in an accident. 1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 26 REAR SEAT PACKAGE TRAY Child restraint hook holders 2.

This will engage the seat belt retractor automatic locking feature, which allows the seat belt to retract but not extend. Install the child restraint system, buckle the seat belt and allow the seat belt to take up any slack. Make sure that the lap portion of the belt is tight around the child restraint system and the shoulder portion of the belt is positioned so that it cannot interfere with the child's head or neck. Also, double check to be sure that the retractor has engaged the Automatic Locking feature by trying to extend webbing out of the retractor. If the retractor is in the Automatic Locking mode, the belt will be locked. After installation of the child restraint system, try to move it in all directions to be sure the child restraint system is securely installed. If you need to tighten the belt, pull more webbing toward the retractor. When you unbuckle the seat belt and allow it to retract, the retractor will automatically revert back to its normal seated passenger Emergency Locking usage condi- tion. NOTE: o Before installing the child restraint sys- tem in any seating position, read the instructions supplied by the child re- straint system manufacturer. o If the seat belt does not operate as de- scribed, have the system checked imme- diately by your authorized Hyundai dealer. WARNING: o If the retractor is not in the Automatic Locking mode, the child restraint can move when your vehicle turns or stops suddenly. A child can be seriously in- jured or killed if the child restraint is not properly anchored to the car, including setting the retractor to the Automatic Locking mode. o Do not install any child restraint system in the front passenger 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. Therefore, only use a child restraint system in the rear seat of your vehicle. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 29 WARNING: o When using the vehicle’s “ISOFIX” sys- tem to install a child restraint system in the rear seat, all unused vehicle rear seat belt metal latch plates or tabs must be latched securely in their seat belt buck- les and the seat belt webbing must be retracted behind the child restraint to prevent the child from reaching and tak- ing hold of unretracted seat belts. Un- latched metal latch plates or tabs may allow the child to reach the unretracted seat belts which may result in strangu- lation and a serious injury or death to the child in the child restraint. B230D05E-AAT Securing the child Restraint seat with the "ISOFIX" system B230F01E Some child seat manufacturers make safety seats that are labeled as ISOFIX or ISOFIX- compatible child seats. These seats include two rigid or webbing mounted attachments that connect to two ISOFIX anchors at specific seating positions in your vehicle. This type of child seat eliminates the need to use seat belts to attach the child seat for forward-facing child seats. ISOFIX anchors have been provided in your vehicle. The ISOFIX anchors are located in the left and right outboard rear seating positions. Their locations are shown in the illustration. There is no ISOFIX anchor provided for the center rear seating position. WARNING: o A child can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if the child restraint is not properly anchored. Always follow the child seat manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use. o Never install a child restraint using the ISOFIX anchors at the center position of the rear seat. In a crash, the ISOFIX anchors may break if a car seat is improp- erly placed in the center position result- ing in serious or fatal injuries. Only place a ISOFIX or ISOFIX-compatible child seat in the left or right out-board rear seating positions (as shown) to the appropriate ISOFIX anchors provided. o Never mount more than one child re- straint to a single tether or to a single lower anchorage point. The increased load caused by multiple seats may cause the tethers or anchorage points to break, causing serious injury or death. 1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 30 ISOFIX Anchor ISOFIX Anchor Position Indicator The ISOFIX anchors are located between the seatback and the seat cushion of the rear seat left and right outboard seating positions. Follow the child seat manufacturer's instruc- tions to properly install safety seats with ISOFIX or ISOFIX-compatible attachments. B230D02E B230D03E Once you have installed the ISOFIX child re- straint seat, assure that the seat is properly attached to the ISOFIX and tether anchors. Also, test the safety seat before you place the child in it. Tilt the seat from side to side. Also try to tug the seat forward. Check to see if the anchors hold the seat in place. WARNING: A child can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if the child restraint is not prop- erly anchored to the car and the child is not properly restrained in the child restraint. Always follow the child seat manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 31 WARNING: To obtain maximum benefit from a pre- tensioner seat belt: o The seatbelt must be work correctly and adjusted to the proper position (see pages 1-20 and 1-21). Please read and follow all of the important information and precautions about your vehicle’s occupant safety features – including seat belts and advanced airbags – that are provided in this manual. o Be sure you and your passengers always wear seat belts and wear them properly. Driver's airbag Passenger's airbag B180B01E The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists mainly of the following components. Their loca- tions are shown in the illustration. 1. SRS airbag warning light 2. Seat belt pre-tensioner assembly 3. SRS control module B180C02E-AAT Pre-Tensioner Seat Belt Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts. The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to make sure that the seat belts fit tightly against the occupant's body in certain frontal collisions. The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated alone or, where the frontal collision is severe enough, together with the airbags. HXG229 When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant tries to lean forward too quickly, the seat belt retractor will lock into position. In certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will activate and pull the seat belt into tighter contact against the occupant's body. 1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 32 NOTE: o Both the driver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated in certain frontal collisions. The pre- tensioner seat belts can be activated alone or, where the frontal collision is severe enough, together with the airbags.
