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

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

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. The buckle pre-

CAUTION:
Do not put anything near the buckle. Plac-
ing objects near the buckle can adversely
affect the buckle pre-tensioner and may
increase the risk of personal injury in the
event of a collision.
If the system senses excessive seat belt ten-
sion on the driver or passenger's seat belt when
the pre-tensioner activates, the load limiter
inside the pre-tensioner will release some of the
pressure on the affected seat belt.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists
mainly of the following components. Their loca-
tions are shown in the illustration:

also pull the seat belt into the buckle.
