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.

der these conditions even if the seat
belts are not being worn at the time of the
collision.

WARNING:
To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-
tensioner seat belt:
B180B01S
The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in a simi-
lar 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.

correct position.

SRS airbag is connected with the pre-
tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warn-

the ignition key has been turned to the
