Children always in the rear
Children under age 13 must always
ride in the rear seats and must
always be properly restrained to min
imize the risk of injury in an accident,
sudden stop or sudden maneuver.
According to accident statistics, chil
dren 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.Most countries have Child Restraint
Systems which require children to
travel 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 requirements in
your country, and where you are travelling.
Child Restraint Systems must be
properly placed and installed in the
rear seat. You must use a commer
cially available Child Restraint System
that meets the requirements of the
Safety Standards of your country.
Child Restraint Systems are general
ly designed to be secured in a vehi
cle seat by lap belt or the lap belt
portion of a lap/shoulder belt, or by a
toptether and/or ISOFIX anchorage
in the rear seats of the vehicle.
Child Restraint System (CRS)
always in the rear
Infants and younger children must be
restrained in an appropriate rearward
facing or forwardfacing 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.
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
•Always follow the Child Restraint
System manufacturer’s instructions
for installation and use.
•Always properly restrain your child
in the Child Restraint System.
•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,
ISOFIX anchorages and toptether
anchorages.
WARNING
Always properly restrain children
in the rear seats of the vehicle,
unless the air bag 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
inflating air bag resulting in SERI
OUS INJURY or DEATH.
WARNING

2-32
Safety system of your vehicle
To reduce the chance of serious or
fatal injuries:
•Children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear seat.
A child riding in the front passen
ger seat can be forcefully struck
by an inflating air bag resulting in
serious or fatal injuries.
•Always follow the instructions for
installation and use of the child
restraint maker.
•Always make sure the child seat
is secured properly in the car and
your child is securely restrained
in the child seat.

violent forces created during a
crash will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against
the car’s interior.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
•Never put a seat belt over yourself
and a child. During a crash, the
belt could press deep into the
child causing serious internal
injuries.
•Never leave children unattended
in a vehicle – not even for a short
time. The car can heat up very
quickly, resulting in serious
injuries to children inside. Even
very young children may inadver
tently cause the vehicle to move,
entangle themselves in the win
dows, or lock themselves or oth
ers inside the vehicle.
•Never allow two children, or any
two persons, to use the same seat
belt.

(Continued)
(Continued)
•Never allow a child to standup or
kneel on the seat or floorboard of
a moving vehicle. During a colli
sion or sudden stop, the child can
be violently thrown against the
vehicles interior, resulting in seri
ous injury.
•Never use an infant carrier or a
child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback, it may not pro
vide adequate security in an acci
dent.
•Seat belts can become very hot,
especially when the car is parked
in direct sunlight. Always check
seat belt buckles before fasten
ing them over a child.
•After an accident, we recom
mend that the system be
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
•If there is not enough space to
place the child restraint system
because of the driver's seat,
install the child restraint system
in the rear right seat.

Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
After selecting a proper Child Restraint
System and checking that the Child
Restraint System fits properly in the
rear of this vehicle, you are ready to
install the Child Restraint System
according to the manufacturer’s
instruction. There are three general
steps in installing the Child Restraint
Systems properly: •
Properly secure the Child Restraint
System to the vehicle.All Child
Restraint System must be secured
to the vehicle with the lap belt or
lap part of a lap/shoulder belt or
with the ISOFIX toptether and/or
ISOFIX anchorage.
•
Make sure the Child Restraint
System is firmly secured. After
installing a Child Restraint System
to the vehicle, push and pull the
seat forward and from sidetoside
to verify that it is securely attached
to the seat. A Child Restraint
System secured with a seat belt
should be installed as firmly as
possible. However, some sideto
side movement can be expected. When installing a Child Restraint
System, adjust the vehicle seat (up
and down, forward and rearward)
so that your child fits in the Child
Restraint System in a comfortable
manner.
•
Secure the child in the Child
Restraint System. Make sure the
child is properly strapped in the
Child Restraint System according
to the Child Restraint System man
ufacturer’s instructions.
Before installing your Child
Restraint System always:
Read and follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of
the Child Restraint System.
Failure to follow all warnings and
instructions could increase the risk
of the SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH if an accident occurs.
WARNING
If the vehicle headrest prevents
proper installation of a Child
Restraint System, the headrest of
the respective seating position
shall be readjusted or entirely
removed.
WARNING
A Child Restraint System in a
closed vehicle can become very
hot. To prevent burns, check the
seating surface and buckles
before placing your child in the
Child Restraint System.

ISOFIX anchorage and toptether
anchorage (ISOFIX anchorages
system) for children
The ISOFIX system holds a Child
Restraint System during driving and
in an accident. This system is
designed to make installation of the
Child Restraint System easier and
reduce the possibility of improperly
installing your Child Restraint
System. The ISOFIX system uses
anchors in the vehicle and attach
ments on the Child Restraint System.
The ISOFIX system eliminates the
need to use seat belts to secure the
Child Restraint System to the rear
seats.
ISOFIX anchorages are metal bars
built into the vehicle. There are twolower anchors for each ISOFIX seat
ing position that will accommodate a
Child Restraint System with lower
attachments. To use the ISOFIX system in your
vehicle, you must have a Child
Restraint System with ISOFIX attach
ments. (An ISOFIX Child Restraint
System may only be installed if it has
vehiclespecific or universal approval
in accordance with the requirements
of ECER44 or ECER129.)
The Child Restraint System manu
facturer will provide you with instruc
tions on how to use the Child
Restraint System with its attach
ments for the ISOFIX anchorages.
ISOFIX anchorages have been pro
vided in the left and right outboard
rear seating positions. Their locations
are shown in the illustration. There
are no ISOFIX anchorages provided
for the center rear seating position.
OLM039035

The ISOFIX anchorages symbols
are located on the left and right rear
seat cushions to identify the position
of the ISOFIX anchorages in your
vehicle (see arrows in illustration).
Both rear outboard seats are equipped
with a pair of ISOFIX anchorages as well as a corresponding toptether
anchorage on the back side of the rear seats.
(Child Restraint Systems with universal approval according to ECER44
or ECER129 need to be fixed addi tionally with a toptether connected tothe back side of the rear seats.) ISOFIX anchorages are located
between the seatback and the seat
cushion of the rear seat left and right
outboard seating positions.
To use the ISOFIX anchorages, push
the upper por tion of the ISOFIX
anchorage cover.
