FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1 27 27 B265E01MC-AAT B190A03A-AAT Seat Belt Warning Light and Chime The driver's seat belt warning light and chime will activate to the following table when the ignition switch is in "ON" position. Conditions Seat Belt Warning Pattern Vehicle Speed Light-Blink Chime-Sound 6 seconds 6 seconds None SEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and Rear Seat 3-Point System with Combination Locking Retractor : To Fasten Your Belt Combination retractor type seat belts are installed in the rear seat outboard and center positions to help accommodate the installation of child restraint systems. Hyundai strongly recommends that children always be seated in the rear seat. NEVER place any infant restraint system in the front seat of the vehicle. This type of seat belt combines the features of both an emergency locking retractor seat belt and an automatic locking retractor seat belt. To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert the metal tab into the buckle. There will be an audible "click" when the tab locks into the buckle. When not securing a child restraint, the seat belt operates in the same way as the driver's seat belt (Emergency Locking Retractor Type). It automatically adjusts to the proper length only after the lap belt portion of the seat belt is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly around your hips. When the seat belt is fully extended from the retractor to allow the installation of a child restraint system, the seat belt operation changes to allow the belt to retract, but not to extend (Automatic Locking Retractor Type). See page 1-37. NOTE: Although the combination retractor provides the same level of protection for seated passengers in either emergency or automatic locking modes, it is recommended that seated passengers use the emergency locking feature for improved convenience. The automatic locking function is intended to facilitate child restraint installation. To convert from the automatic locking feature to the emergency locking operation mode, allow the unbuckled seat belt to fully retract. Unbuckled Buckled Buckled → Unbuckled Above 6mph (10 km/h) Unbuckled Below 3mph (5 km/h) 6 seconds 6 seconds *1) ↓ ↓ Stop *2) *1) Warning pattern repeats 11 times with interval 24 seconds.

WARNING: o For maximum restraint system protection, seat belts must always be used whenever the car is moving. o Seat belts are most effective when seatbacks are in the upright position.
