CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (CRS)
Child Restraint Systems must be prop-
erly placed and installed in the rear
seat. You must use a commercially
available Child Restraint System that
meets the requirements of the Safety
Standards of your country.
Child Restraint Systems are generally
designed to be secured in a vehicle
seat by lap belt or the lap belt portion of
a lap/shoulder belt, or by a top-tether
and/or ISOFIX anchorage in the rear
seats of the vehicle.
Our recommendation:
Children always in the rear
WARNING
Always properly restrain children in
the rear seats of the vehicle, unless
the airbag on the front passenger
seat is deactivated.
Children of all ages are safer when
restrained in the rear seat. A child
riding in the front passenger seat
can be forcefully struck by an inflat-
ing airbag resulting in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH.
Child Restraint System (CRS)
always in the rear
Infants and younger children must be
restrained in an appropriate rearward-
facing or forward-facing CRS that has
first been properly secured to the rear
seat of the vehicle. Read and comply
with the instructions for installation and
use provided by the manufacturer of
the Child Restraint System.
Children under age 13 must always ride
in the rear seats and must always be
properly restrained to minimise the risk
of injury in an accident, sudden stop or
sudden manoeuvre. According to acci-
dent statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seats
than in the front seat. Children too large
for a Child Restraint System must use
the seat belts provided.
WARNING
• Always follow the Child Restraint
System manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for installation and use.
Most countries have Child Restraint
Systems which require children to trav-
el in approved Child Restraint Systems.
The laws governing the age or height/
weight restrictions at which seat belts
can be used instead of Child Restraint
System differs among countries, so you
should be aware of the specific require-
ments in your country, and where you
are travelling.
• Always properly restrain your
child in the Child Restraint Sys-
tem.
• Do not use an infant carrier or a
child safety seat that “hooks” over
a seatback, it may not provide ade-
quate protection in an accident.
• After an accident, we recommend
a HYUNDAI dealer check the Child
Restraint System, seat belts, ISO-
FIX anchorages and top-tether
anchorages.
