feature by trying to extend webbing out of the
retractor. If the retractor is in the Automatic
Locking mode, the belt will be locked. After
installation of the child restraint system, try to
move it in all directions to be sure the child
restraint system is securely installed. If you
need to tighten the belt, pull more webbing
toward the retractor. When you unbuckle the
seat belt and allow it to retract, the retractor will
automatically revert back to its normal seated
passenger Emergency Locking usage condi-
tion.
NOTE:

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
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.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists
mainly of the following components.
Their locations are shown in the illustration.
