WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a
pre-tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn cor-
rectly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to
the correct position.
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 acti-
vated with the airbags. The pre-
tensioners will be activated under
these conditions even if the seat
belts are not being worn at the
time of the collision.
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 vis-
ible in the passenger compart-
ment. These are normal operating
conditions and are not hazard-
ous.

o Although it is harmless, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation and
should not be breathed for pro-
longed periods. Wash your hands
and face thoroughly after an acci-
dent in which the pre-tensioner
seat belts were activated.
!
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates
the SRS airbag is connected with
the pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS
airbag warning light
on the
instrument panel will blink for
approximately 6 seconds after the
ignition key has been turned to the
"ON" position and then it should
turn off.
o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not
working properly, this warning
light will illuminate even if there is
no function of the SRS airbag sys-
tem.
If the SRS airbag warning light
does not illuminate when the igni-
tion key is turned to "ON", or if it
remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 6 seconds, or if
FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
it illuminates whilst the vehicle is
being driven, please have an au-
thorized Hyundai dealer inspect
the pre-tensioner seat belt or SRS
airbag system as soon as pos-
sible.
!
WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to op-
erate only one time. After activa-
tion, pre-tensioner seat belts must
be replaced. All seat belts, of any
type, should always be replaced
after they have been worn during a
collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assem-
bly mechanisms become hot dur-
ing activation. Do not touch the
pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies
for several minutes after they have
been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or re-
place the pre-tensioner seat belts
yourself. This must be done by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies.
