WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-
tensioner seat belt:
The seat belt must be work correctly and
adjusted to the proper position (see
pages 1-25 and 1-26). 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.
NOTE:
o Both the driver's and
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.
The pre-tensioners will not be acti-
vated 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 ap-
pear to be smoke, may be visible in
the passenger compartment. These
are normal operating conditions and
are not hazardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should
not be breathed for prolonged peri-
ods. Wash your hands and face thor-
oughly after an accident in which the
pre-tensioner seat belts were acti-
vated.

CAUTION:
o The sensor that activates the SRS
airbag is connected with the pre-
tensioner seat belt. The SRS airbag
warning light
panel will illuminate 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 mal-
function of the SRS airbag.
If the SRS airbag warning light does
not illuminate when the ignition key
is turned to the "ON" position, re-
mains illuminated after approxi-
mately 6 seconds when the ignition
key is turned to the "ON" position, or
if it illuminates while the vehicle is
being driven, have an authorized
Hyundai dealer inspect the advanced
SRS airbag system as soon as pos-
sible.
