Pre-tensioner Seat Belt
(Without A/BAG)
Ordinarily the pre-tensioner seat belt operates
in the same way as E.L.R (Emergency Locking
Retractor) type (When vehicles stop sudden-
ly, the belt will lock into the position. It will
also lock If you try to lean forward too
qulckly.). However, when vehicles crash, the
retractor rewinds the belt webbing. This will
restrain the passenger movement quickly and
also reduce the slack between passenger and
belt webbing.
NOTE:
o When the pre-tensioner seat belt Is acti-
vated, there may be an exploslon nolse.
Thls nolse Is normal and Is not hazard-
ous.
o Pre-tensioner seat belt Is deslgned to
operate only when a sufflciently severe
Impact occurs and It will be only operat-
ed once.
WARNING:
If the pre-tensioner seat belt was actlvated,
never attempt to replace it by yourself. It
must be replaced by an authorized Hyundai
Dealer.

Pre-Tensioner Seat Belt (With A/BAG)
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.
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.
