belts can be activated alone or,
where the frontal collision is severe
enough, together with the airbags.
The pre-tensioners will not be acti-
vated if the seat belts are not being
worn at the time of the collision.

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.
