WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be
placed in the rear seat. Never
install a child or infant seat on
the front passenger's seat.
Should an accident occur and
cause the passenger side airbag
to deploy, it could severely in-
jure or kill an infant or child seated
in an infant or child seat. Thus,
only use a child restraint in the
rear seat of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child re-
straint system can become very
hot if it is left in a closed vehicle,
be sure to check the seat cover
and buckles before placing a
child there.
o When the child restraint system
is not in use, store it in the lug-
gage compartment or fasten it with
a safety belt so that it will not be
thrown forward in the case of a
sudden stop or an accident.
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
B230A05P-GAT
(If installed)
Children riding in the car should sit in
the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained in the rear
seats than in the front seat. Larger
children not in a child restraint should
use one of the seat belts provided.
You are required by law to use safety
restraints for children. If small children
ride in your vehicle you must put them
in a child restraint system (safety seat).
Child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts
or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder
belt, or by a tether anchor and/or ISOFIX
anchors (if installed).
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured. For small children and ba-
bies, a child seat or infant seat must be
used. Before buying a particular child
restraint system, make sure it fits your
car and seat belts, and fits your child.
Follow all the instructions provided by
the manufacturer when installing the
child restraint system.
o Children who are too large to be in
a child restraint should sit in the
rear seat and be restrained with
the available lap/shoulder belts.
Never allow children to ride in the
front passanger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoul-
der belt portion of the outboard
lap/shoulder belt is positioned
midway over the shoulder, never
across the neck or behind the
back. Moving the child closer to
the center of the each seat may
help provide a good shoulder
belt fit. The lap belt portion of the
lap/shoulder belt or the center
seat lap belt must always be po-
sitioned as low as possible on
the child's hips and as snug as
possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit
the child, Hyundai recommends
the use of an approved booster
seat in the rear seat in order to
raise the child's seating height
so that the seat belt will properly
fit the child.
