Automatic Seat Belt Retracting; Seat Belt Precautions - Hyundai EQUUS 2016 Owner's Manual

Automatic Seat Belt Retracting

In order to prevent a seat belt from
being slack due to weak fabric dura-
bility, your seat belt assembly is
equipped with the automatic retract-
ing function. A motor automatically
retracts the seat belt after approxi-
mately 3 seconds. However, this
does not operate, when the seat belt
is unfastened with little slack.

Seat belt precautions

WARNING
All occupants of the vehicle
must and always fasten their
seat belts. Seat belts and child
restraints reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injury in the
event of a collision or a sudden
stop. Without fastening a seat
belt, occupants may fall too
close to a deploying air bag,
strike the interior structure or
be thrown out of the vehicle.
Proper fastening
reduces these hazards.
Even with advanced air bag
technologies, unbelted occu-
pants may be severely injured
due to air bag inflation. Always
follow the precautions about
seat belts, air bags and occu-
pant safety contained in this
manual.
Safety system of your vehicle
Infant or small child
All 50 states have child restraint laws
which require children to travel in
approved child restraint devices,
including booster seats. The ages, at
which seat belts may be used
instead of child restraints, differ
among states, so you should check
the specific requirements in your
state before driving. Infant and child
restraints must be properly placed
and installed in a rear seat.
For further information, refer to the
Child Restraint Systems chapter.
Every person in your vehicle
needs to be properly and
always restrained, including
infants and children. Never hold
a child in your arms or on your
laps when riding in a vehicle.
The violent impact in a crash
may force you miss the child
from your arms and the child
may strike against the vehicle
greatly
interior.
Always use a child restraint
appropriate for your child's
height and weight.
