B010A03A-AAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use Unleaded Gasoline

UNLEADED FUEL ONLY

B010A02GK

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

If leaded gasoline is used, it will cause the catalytic converter to become ineffective and the emission control system to malfunction. This can also result in increased maintenance expense.

To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the larger nozzle used with leaded gasoline at ser-

WARNING: o Do not "TOP-OFF" after the first nozzle

shut off when refueling.

o The fuel cap must be tightened at least 3
clicks, otherwise " " light may illumi- nate.

B010B01A-AAT What About Gasohol? 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.

B010D01A-AAT Do Not Use Methanol 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

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 registra-

tion and insurance.

o Determine that acceptable fuel is available.

B010E01A-AAT Gasolines for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai rec- ommends that you use gasolines treated with detergent additives, which help prevent deposit formation in the engine. These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and the Emission Control System performance.

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 start- ing.

B020A01S-AAT BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI During the First 1,200 Miles (2,000
Km) No formal “break-in” procedure is required with your new Hyundai. However, you can contrib- ute to the economical operation and durability of your Hyundai by observing the following recom- mendations during the first 1,200 miles (2,000
km).

o Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88 km/h). o While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute) between 2,000
rpm and 4,000 rpm.

o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start quick-

ly 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).

o Whether going fast or slow, vary your speed

from time to time.

o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3 min-

utes at one time.

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

(2,000 km) of operation.

WARNING: o Unlocked doors can be dangerous. Be- fore you drive away (especially if there are children in the car), be sure that all the doors are securely closed and locked so that the doors cannot be inadvertently opened from the inside. This helps as- sure that doors will not be opened acci- dentally. Also, when combined with the proper use of seat belts, locking the doors helps keep occupants from being ejected from the car in case of an accident.

o Before opening the door, always look for

and avoid oncoming traffic.

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 forward or rearward on its track until it locks into the desired position and cannot be moved further.

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 desired seatback angle is achieved. To lock the seatback into position, release the recliner control lever.

WARNING: To minimize risk of severe injury in the event of a collision or a sudden stop, both the driver and passenger seatbacks should always be in an upright position while the vehicle is in motion. The protection provid- ed by the seat belts and airbags may be reduced significantly when the seatbacks are reclined. There is greater risk that the driver and passenger will slide under the seatbelt which may result in serious injury if a crash occurs when the seatbacks are re-

B099A02F-AAT BEFORE FOLDING THE REAR SEATS

HGK240

B099A01GK

In order to prevent the shoulder belt from being damaged while folding the rear seat, the shoul- der belt must be passed through the hanger to keep it out of the way. CAUTION: Seat belts must be removed from the hanger when in use.

B110A02S-AAT FOLDING REAR SEATBACKS

HGK108

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

o To unlock the seatback, push the seatback locking button, then pull forward on the seatback panel.

o When you return the seatback to its upright position, always be sure it has locked into position by pulling and pushing on the top of the seatback.

1- 9

WARNING: The purpose of the fold-down rear seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer objects than could otherwise be accommodated. Do not allow passengers to sit on top of the folded down seat back 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 injury in case of an accident or sudden stop. Objects carried 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 in- jury or damage during sudden stops.

B150A01F-AAT SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: All occupants of the vehicle must wear their seat belts at all times. Note that this vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System as discussed beginning on page 1-18. The seat belts must be used in conjunction with the supplemental airbag system. State laws may require that some or all occupants of the vehicle use seat belts. The possibility of increased injury or sever- ity of injury in an accident will be increased if this elementary safety precaution is not observed. In addition, the following recom- mendations are made:

1- 10

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

B150B01F-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 re- straints begins on page 1-14.

WARNING: Every person in your vehicle needs to be properly restrained at all times, including infants and children. In a collision, an unre- strained child can become a "missile" in- side the car. The force required to hold a child on your lap could be so great that you could not hold the child. Any child riding in the vehicle should always be in a proper restraint in the rear seat of the vehicle.

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 buy- ing any child restraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213. The re- straint must be appropriate for your child's height and weight. Check the label on the child restraint for this information. See page 1-14.

B150C02A-AAT Larger Children Children who are too large for child restraint systems should 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 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 rear facing child seat in the front seat of a vehicle.

B150D01A-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, the lap belt portion should be placed as low and snugly as possible on the hips, not across the abdo- men. For specific recommendations, consult a physician.

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

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.

B150G01A-AAT Do Not Lie Down To reduce the chance of injuries in the event of an accident, and to achieve maximum effec- tiveness of the restraint system, all passengers should be sitting up and the front seats should be in an upright position when the car is mov- ing. 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: Sitting in a reclined position or lying down when your vehicle is in motion can be dan- gerous. Even if you buckle up, your seat belts can't do their job when you're reclined. The shoulder belt can't do its job because it won't be against your body. Instead, it will be in front of you. In a crash you could go into it with great force, receiv-

ing serious neck or other injuries. The lap belt can't do its job either. In a crash the belt could go up over your abdomen. The belt forces would be applied there, not at your pelvic bones. This could cause serious internal injuries. For proper protection when the vehicle is in motion, have the seatback upright. Then sit back in the seat and wear your seat belt properly. See page 1-12.

B160A01A-AAT CARE OF SEAT BELTS Seat belt systems should never be disassem- bled or modified. In addition, care should be taken to assure that seat belts and belt hard- ware are not damaged by seat hinges, doors or other abuse.

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.

B160B01A-AAT Periodic Inspection It is recommended that all seat belts be inspected periodically for wear or damage of any kind. Parts of the system that are damaged should be replaced as soon as possible.

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 in- volved in an accident. This should be done even if no damage is visible. Additional questions concerning seat belt operation should be direct- ed to your Hyundai Dealer.

B170A04A-AAT HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE FRONT SEAT SHOULDER BELT (If installed)

HGK109

1- 11

You can adjust the height of the shoulder belt anchor to one of the 4 positions. 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. Release the button to lock the anchor into position. Try sliding the release button to make sure that it has locked into the position.

WARNING: o The height adjuster must be in the locked

position when the vehicle is moving.

o The misadjustment of height of the shoul- der belt could reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt in a crash.

FUA1090P

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 flash and the warning chime will sound for approximately six seconds.

B190A01GK-AAT SEAT BELTS Rear Seat 3-Point Sys- tem with Combination Locking Re- tractor To Fasten Your Belt Combination retractor type seat belts are in- stalled in the rear seat positions to help accom- modate the installation of child restraint sys- tems. Although a combination retractor is also installed in the front passenger seat position, Hyundai strongly recommends that children al- ways 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 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)

NOTE: Although the combination retractor provides the same level of protection for seated pas- sengers in either emergency or automatic locking modes, it is recommended that seated passengers use the emergency lock- ing feature for improved convenience. The automatic locking function is intended to facilitate child restraint installation. To con- vert from the automatic locking feature to the emergency locking operation mode, al- low the unbuckled seat belt to fully retract.

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 must always be seatbelted in the rear seats. Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat.

o The shoulder belt should be positioned midway over the shoulder nearest the door for the most effective protection. Never wear the seat belt under the arm

B230A02A-AAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM 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, sud- den stop or sudden maneuver. According to accident 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 should use one of the seat belts pro- vided. 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 require- ments 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.

1- 14

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

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 sys- tem 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.

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 who are too large to be in a child restraint should still sit in the rear seat and be restrained with the available lap/shoulder belts. Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat.

o Always make sure that the shoulder belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt is posi- tioned midway over the shoulder, never across the neck or behind the back. Mov- ing the child closer to the center of the vehicle may help provide a good shoul- der belt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/ shoulder belt or the center seat lap belt

must always be positioned as low as possible on the child's hips and as snug as possible.

o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, we recommend the use of an ap- proved 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 Feder- al Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and that it is satisfactory for use with this vehicle.

o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel

on the seat.

o Never use an infant carrier or child safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback; it may not provide adequate security in an acci- dent.

o Never allow a child to be held in a per- son's arms while they are in a moving vehicle, as this could result in serious injury to the child in the event of an accident or a sudden stop. Holding a child in a moving vehicle does not pro- vide the child with any means of protec- tion during an accident, even if the per- son holding the child is wearing a seat belt.

To install a child restraint system in the out- board rear seats, extend the shoulder/lap belt entirely from its retractor until a "click" is felt. This will engage the seat belt retractor auto- matic locking feature, which allows the seat belt to retract but not extend. Install the child re- straint 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 can not 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

B230D01GK-AAT Securing the Child Restraint Seat with the "ISOFIX" System

B230F01GK

Some child seat manufacturers make child re- straint seats that are labeled as ISOFIX or ISOFIX-compatible child restraint seats. These seats include two rigid or webbing mounted attachments that connect to two ISOFIX an- chors at specific seating positions in your ve- hicle. This type of child restraint seat eliminates the need to use seat belts to attach the child seat for forward-facing child restraint 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 center rear seating position.

WARNING: o There is no center rear seat position. o Do not install a child restraint seat at the center of the rear seat using the vehicle's ISOFIX anchors. The ISOFIX anchors are only provided for the left and right out- board of the rear seat. Do not misuse the ISOFIX anchors by attempting to attach a child restraint seat in the middle of rear seat position to the ISOFIX anchors. In a crash, the child restraint seat ISOFIX at- tachments may not be strong enough to secure the child restraint seat properly in the center of the rear seat and may break, causing serious injury or death.

o Do not mount more than one child re- straint to a single tether or to a child restraint lower anchorage point. The im- proper increased load may cause the anchorage points or tether anchor to break, causing serious injury or death.

o Attach the ISOFIX or ISOFIX-compatible child restraint seat only to the appropri- ate locations shown in the illustration.

o Always follow the installation and use instructions provided by the manufac- turer of the child restraint.

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 condition.

NOTE: o Before installing the child restraint sys- tem in any seating position, read the instructions supplied by the child restraint system manufacturer.

o If the seat belt does not operate as de- scribed, have the system checked imme- diately by your authorized Hyundai deal- er.

WARNING: o If the retractor is not in the Automatic Locking mode, the child restraint system can move when your vehicle turns or stops abruptly.

o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat. Should an acci- dent occur and cause the passenger side supplemental airbag to deploy, it could severely injure or kill an infant or child seated in an infant or child seat. There- fore, only use a child restraint system in the rear seat of your vehicle.

ISOFIX Anchor

ISOFIX Anchor Position Indicator

B230D02GK

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 child restraint seats with ISOFIX or ISOFIX-compatible attachments.

Once you have installed the ISOFIX child re- straint, assure that the seat is properly attached to the ISOFIX and tether anchors. Also, test the child restraint 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: If the child restraint is not anchored prop- erly, the risk of a child being seriously in- jured or killed in a collision greatly increases.

B180B01GK-GAT Pre-tensioner Seat Belt (If Installed) 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.

B180B01S

The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in the same way as an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) type of seat belt. When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the occupant tries to lean for- ward too quickly, the seat belt retractor will lock into position. However, in certain frontal colli- sions, the pre-tensioner will activate and pull the seat belt into tighter contact against the occupant's body.

Driver's airbag

B180B01GK The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists mainly of the following components.

Their locations are shown in the illustration.

1. SRS airbag warning light 2. Seat belt pre-tensioner assembly 3. SRS control module

WARNING: To obtain maximum benefit from a pre- tensioner seat belt:

1. The seat belt must be worn correctly. 2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the

correct position.

1- 17

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.

o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are activated, a loud noise may be heard and fine dust, which may appear to be smoke, may be visible in the passenger compart- ment. These are normal operating condi- tions and are not hazardous.

o Although it is harmless, the fine dust may cause skin irritation and should not be breathed for prolonged periods. Wash your hands and face thoroughly after an accident in which the pre-tensioner seat belts were activated.

CAUTION: o The control module that activates the SRS airbag controls the pre-tensioner seat belt also.

o If there is some malfunction in the pre- tensioner seat belt circuit, the warning light will illuminate even if there is no malfunction in the SRS airbag system. If the SRS airbag warning light does not illuminate or illuminates continuously when the ignition key is turned to "ON", or if it remains illuminated after blinking for approximately 6 seconds, or if it illu- minates while the vehicle is being driven,

o Do not attempt to service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt system in any manner.

o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies, and failure to heed the warnings to not strike, modify, in- spect, replace, service or repair the pre- tensioner seat belt assemblies may lead to improper operation or inadvertent ac- tivation and serious injury.

o Always wear the seat belts when driving

or riding in a motor vehicle.

B240A01GK

Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of the system's presence are the letters "SRS AIR BAG" embossed on the ornament in the steer- ing wheel and the passenger's side front panel pad above the glove box.

The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed under the pad covers in the center of the steering wheel and the passenger's side front panel above the glove box. The purpose of the SRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that offered by the seat belt system alone, in case of a frontal impact of sufficient severity.

NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS on the labels provided on the backside of the sun visor and in the glove box.

WARNING: o As its name implies, the SRS is designed to work with, and be supplemental to, the driver's and the passenger's three point seat belt systems and is not a substitute for them. Therefore, your seat belts must be worn at all times while the vehicle is in motion. The airbags deploy only in cer- tain frontal impact conditions severe enough to cause significant injury to the vehicle occupants.

o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags only when an impact is sufficiently severe and when the impact angle is less than 30° from the forward longitudinal axis of the vehicle and will not deploy in side, rear or rollover impacts. Additionally, the airbags will only deploy once. Thus, seat belts must be worn at all times.

o Front airbags are not intended deploy in light collisions in which protection can be provided by the seat belt.

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

Rear impact

Side Impact

Rollover

B240A02GK

o Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear-impact or rollover crashes. In addition, airbags will not de- ploy in frontal crashes below the deploy- ment threshold speed.

o The driver should sit back as far as pos- sible while still maintaining control of the vehicle. If you are sitting too close to the airbag, it can cause death or serious injury when it inflates.

o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steering wheel, instrument panel, and the front passenger's panel above the glove box, because any such object could cause harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to cause the airbags to deploy.

o If the airbags deploy, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS wiring, or other components of the SRS system. Doing so could result in injury, due to accidental firing of the airbags or by rendering the SRS inoperative.

o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position. A child restraint system must never be placed in the front seat. The infant or child could be severely injured or killed by an airbag deployment in case of an accident.

o Do not allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. If older children (teenag- ers and older) must ride in the front seat, make sure they are always properly belted and that the seat is moved back as far as possible.

o For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occupants including the driver should always wear their seat belts whether or not an airbag is also provided at their seating position to mini- mize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close to the airbag while the vehicle is in motion.

o The SRS airbag system must deploy very rapidly to provide protection in a crash. If an occupant is out of position because of not wearing a seat belt, the airbag may forcefully contact the occupant causing serious or fatal injuries.

B240B02GK-AAT SRS Components and Functions

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

The airbag modules are located both in the center of the steering wheel and in the front passenger's panel above the glove box. When the SRSCM detects a considerable impact to the front of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy the airbags.

Passanger's Airbag

B240B01L

The SRS consists of the following components:

- Driver's Airbag Module - Passenger's Airbag Module - Knee Bolster - SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI) - SRS Control Module (SRSCM)

The SRSCM continually monitors all elements while the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontal or near-frontal impact is severe enough to require airbag deployment.

1- 20

B240B02L

The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blink for about 6 sec- onds after the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position or after the engine is started, after which the SRI should go out.

B240B01GK

CAUTION: Do not install or place any accessories (drink holder, cassette holder, sticker, etc) on the front passenger's panel above the glove box in a vehicle with a passenger's air bag. Such objects may become dangerous projectiles and cause injury if the passenger's air bag inflates.

Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly into the pad covers will separate under pres- sure from the expansion of the airbags. Further opening of the covers then allows full inflation of the airbags.

B240B03L

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

WARNING: o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dust will be re- leased throughout the vehicle. These conditions are normal and are not haz- ardous. However, the fine dust generat- ed during airbag deployment may cause skin irritation. Be sure to wash your hands and face thoroughly with lukewarm wa- ter and a mild soap after an accident in which the airbags were deployed.

o The SRS can function only when the ignition key is in the "ON" position. If the SRS SRI does not come on or illumi- nates continuously when the ignition key is turned to "ON", or continuously re- mains on after flashing for about 6 sec- onds when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, or after the engine is started, or comes on while driving, the SRS is not working properly. If this oc- curs, have your vehicle immediately in- spected by your Hyundai dealer.

o Before you replace a fuse or disconnect a battery terminal, turn the ignition key to the "LOCK" position or remove the igni- tion key. Never remove or replace the air bag related fuse(s) when the ignition key is in the "ON" position. Failure to heed this warning will cause the SRS SRI to illuminate.

B990B03Y-AAT Side Impact Airbag (If installed)

B990B02Y

Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impact airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that offered by the seat belt alone. The side impact airbags are designed to deploy only during certain side-impact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. The side impact airbags are not de- signed to deploy in all side impact situations.

WARNING: o For best protection from the side impact airbag system and to avoid being injured by the deploying side impact airbag, both front seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt prop- erly fastened. The driver's hands should be placed on the steering wheel at the

o Do not use any accessory seat covers. o Use of seat covers could prevent or re-

duce the effectiveness of the system.

o Do not install any accessories on the

side or near the side impact airbag.

o Do not use excessive force on the side of

the seat.

o Do not place any objects over the airbag

or between the airbag and yourself.

o Do not place any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.) between the front door and the front seat. Such objects may become dangerous projectiles and cause injury if the supplemental side impact airbag in- flates.

o To prevent unexpected deployment of the side impact airbag that may result in personal injury,avoid impact to the side airbag sensor when the ignition key is on.

B240C02A-AAT SRS Care o The SRS is virtually maintenance free and there are no parts you can safely service by yourself. The entire SRS system must be inspected by an authorized Hyundai dealer in 10 years after the date that the vehicle was manufactured.

o Any work on the SRS system, such as re- moving, installing, repairing, or any work on the steering wheel must be performed by a qualified Hyundai technician. Improper han- dling of the airbag system may result in serious personal injury.

B240C01A

WARNING: o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position. A child restraint system must never be placed in the front seat. The infant or child could be severely injured or killed by an airbag deployment in case of an accident.

o Modification to SRS components or wir- ing, including the addition of any kind of badges to the pad covers or modifica- tions to the body structure, can adversely affect SRS performance and lead to pos- sible injury.

o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use only a soft, dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plain water. Sol- vents or cleaners could adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deploy- ment of the system.

o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steering wheel, instrument panel, and the front passen- ger’s panel above the glove box, because any such object could cause harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to cause the airbags to inflate.

o If the airbags inflate, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer. o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS wiring, or other components of the SRS system. Doing so could result in injury, due to accidental firing of the airbags or by rendering the SRS inoperative.

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

o If components of the airbag system must be discarded, or if the vehicle must be scrapped, certain safety precautions must be observed. Your Hyundai dealer knows these precautions and can give you the necessary information. Failure to follow these precautions and procedures could increase the risk of personal in- jury.

o If you sell your vehicle, be sure to inform the new owner of these important points and make certain that this manual is transferred to the new owner.

o If your car was flooded and has soaked carpeting or water on the floor, you shouldn't try to start the engine; have the car towed to an authorized Hyundai deal- er.

If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. The normal braking system will still be operational, but without the assistance of the anti-lock brake system. 1- 26

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal braking systems. This means you still have brak- ing on two wheels even if one of the dual systems should fail. With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal pressure are required to stop the car. Also, the car will not stop in as short a distance with only half of the brake system work- ing. If the brakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional engine braking and stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so.

B260J01A-AAT

Charging System Warning Light

The charging system warning light should come on when the ignition is turned on, then go out when the engine is running. If the light stays on while the engine is running, there is a malfunc- tion in the electrical charging system. If the light comes on while you are driving, stop, turn off the engine and check under the hood. First, make certain the generator drive belt is in place. If it is, check the tension of the belt. Do this as shown on page 6-13 by pushing down on the center of the belt. And then have the system checked by your Hyundai dealer.

B260H01GK-AAT

Parking Brake/Brake Fluid Level Warning Light

WARNING: If you suspect brake trouble, have your brakes checked by a Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. Driving your car with a problem in either the brake electrical system or brake hydraulic system is dangerous, and could result in a serious injury or death.

Warning Light Operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warning light should come on when the parking brake is ap- plied and the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START". After the engine is started, the light should go out in three seconds. If the parking brake is not applied, the warning light should come on when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START", then go out in three seconds. If the light comes on at any other time, you should slow the vehicle and bring it to a complete stop in a safe location off the roadway. The brake warning light indicates that the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder is low and hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should be added. After adding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the car should be immediately and carefully driven to a Hyundai dealer for inspection. If further trouble is experienced, the vehicle should not be driven at all but taken to a dealer by a professional towing service or some other safe method.
