SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS
Seat belts should be worn at all times by all
occupants front and rear. The possibility of
injury or the severity of injuries suffered in the
event of an accident will be greatly reduced by
the wearing of seat belts.
Pregnant Women
CARE OF SEAT BELTS
The use of a seat belt is recommended for
pregnant women. The seat belt should be
worn as low and snugly as possible across
the hips, not across the abdomen. A qualified
Medical Practitioner should be consulted for
further information.
Seat belt assemblies must never be disas-
sembled or modified in any way. In addition,
care should be exercised to ensure that the belt
assemblies do not become damaged by being
trapped in seat mechanisms, door shuts etc.
In addition the following recommendations
should be observed.

Injured Persons
It is recommended that all seat belts be in-
spected periodically for wear or damage of any
kind. Parts of the system that are damaged
should be replaced as soon as possible. Under
no circumstances must any part of the seat belt
assemblies be dismantled or repaired.
Babies/Small Children
A seat belt should be used when an injured
person is being transported. For specific rec-
ommendations, the advice of a qualified Med-
ical Practioner should be sought.
Babies and small children must be restrained
using a restraint system specifically designed
for this purpose. Under no circumstances
should a child be carried in the vehicle without
the use of a suitable restraint which meets the
regulations in force in the country where the
vehicle is in operation.

Seat Belt Occupancy
Keep Belts Clean and Dry
The seat belts are designed to be used by one
seat occupant only. The use of a seat belt by
more than one person increases the levels of
injury which may be sustained in the event of
an accident.
Seat belts should be kept clean and dry. If
belts become dirty, they can be cleaned using
a mild soap solution and warm water. Bleach,
dye, strong detergents or abrasives should
not be used since the fabric may become
damaged and weakened.
SB090C1-E
Larger Children
Larger children should occupy the rear seat
and be restrained at all times. The restraint
may take the form of a special safety belt or
the original factory fitted seat belt used in
conjunction with an approved booster cushion
depending upon the size and weight of the
child. Under no circumstances should children
be allowed to travel standing, kneeling or lying
on the seat.

Replacement of Seat Belts
The entire seat belt assembly or assemblies
should be replaced if the vehicle has been
involved in an accident even if no damage is
evident. Additional questions concerning seat
belt operation should be directed to a Hyundai
Dealer.
To ensure that the maximum level of protec-
tion may be afforded by the seat belt system,
all passengers should be sitting in an upright
position throughout the journey. The seat belt
will be unable to afford maximum protection if
the front seats are at or near the fully reclined
position.
Never allow children to ride in the front pas-
senger seat.
