(Continued)
When the child restraint sys-tem is not in use, store it in
the luggage area or fasten itwith a seat belt so that it will
not be thrown forward in the
case of a sudden stop or anaccident.
Children may be seriously injured or killed by an inflating
air bag. All children, even
those too large for child
restraints, must ride in therear seat.WARNING
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
passenger seat can be force-
fully struck by an inflating air
bag resulting in serious orfatal injuries.
Always follow the child restraint system manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation
and use of the child restraint.
Always make sure the child seat is secured properly in the
vehicle and your child is
securely restrained in the
child seat.
(Continued)(Continued)
Never hold a child in yourarms or lap when riding in a
vehicle. The violent forces cre-ated during a crash will tear
the child from your arms and
throw the child against the
vehicle’s interior.
Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a
crash, the belt could press
deep into the child causingserious internal injuries.
Never leave children unat- tended 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 chil-
dren may inadvertently cause
the vehicle to move, entangle
themselves in the windows, or
lock themselves or others
inside the vehicle.

Using a child restraint system
For small children and babies, the
use of a child seat or infant seat isrequired.
WARNING
Do not operate the rear power seat (if equipped) while the
child seat is installed.
(Continued)
Never allow two children, or any two persons, to use the same seat belt.
Children often squirm and reposition themselves improp-
erly. Never let a child ride withthe shoulder belt under their
arm or behind their back.
Always properly position and
secure children in the rearseat.
Never allow a child to stand- up or kneel on the seat or floor
of a moving vehicle. During a
collision or sudden stop, the
child can be violently thrown
against the vehicle’s interior,
resulting in serious injury.
Never use an infant carrier or a child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback, it may not
provide adequate security inan accident.
(Continued)(Continued)
Seat belts can become veryhot, especially when the vehi-
cle is parked in direct sun-
light. Always check seat belt
buckles before fastening them
over a child.
After an accident, we recom- mend that the system be
checked by an authorized Kia
dealer.
If there is not enough space to place the child restraint sys-tem because of the driver's
seat, install the child restraintsystem in the rear right seat.

dance with the manufacturer's
instructions.

an inflating passenger-side air
bag could impact the rear-facing
child restraint and kill the child.

A child can be seriously injured or killed in a collision
if the child restraint is not
properly anchored to the vehi-
cle and the child is not prop-
erly restrained in the child
restraint. Before installing the
child restraint system, read
the instructions supplied by
the child restraint system
manufacturer.
If the seat belt does not oper- ate as described in this sec-
tion, we recommend that the
system be checked by an

installation of the child restraint
system, try to move it in all direc-
tions to be sure the child restraintsystem is securely installed. If you need to tighten the belt, pull

located on the package tray. 1. Route the child restraint seat strap
over the seatback.

rest, route the tether strap under
the headrest and between the
headrest posts, otherwise route
the tether strap over the top of the
seatback. In case of interference
between the child restraint seat
and the headrest remove the par-
ticular head restraint for better fit-
ment of the child restraint seat.

WARNING - Tether strap
Never mount more than one
child restraint to a single tether
or to a single lower anchorage
point. The increased load
caused by multiple seats may
cause the tethers or anchorage
points to break, causing serious
injury or death.
WARNING
A child can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if the
child restraint is not properly
anchored to the car and the
child is not properly restrained
in the child restraint. Always fol-
low the child seat manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation

Securing a child restraint system
with “ISOFIX” system and “Tether Anchorage” system
ISOFIX is a standardised method of fitting child seats that eliminates theneed to use the standard adult seat
belt to secure the seat in the vehicle.
This enables a much more secure and
positive location with the added bene-
fit of easier and quicker installation. An ISOFIX-seat can only be installed
if it has vehicle-specific approval inaccordance with the requirements ofECE-R44.
WARNING - Child restraint
check
Check that the child restraint
system is secure by pushing
and pulling it in different direc-
tions. Incorrectly fitted child
restraints may swing, twist, tipor separate causing death or
serious injury.WARNING - Child restraint
anchorage
Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only
those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints.
Under no circumstances are
they to be used for adult seat
belts or harnesses or for
attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
The tether strap may not work properly if attached some-where other than the correct
tether anchor.

There is a child restraint symbol
located on the lower portion of each
side of the rear seatbacks. Thesesymbols indicate the position of the
lower anchors for child restraints soequipped. On each side of the rear seat,
between the cushion and backrest,are located a pair of ISOFIX anchor-age points together with a top tethermounting on the shelf behind the
rear seats.During the installation, the seat has
to be engaged at the anchorage-
points in a way you can hear it click-
ing (check by pulling!) and has to be
fixed with the Top Tether-anchor onthe belonging point on the shelf
behind rear seats. The installing and the use of a child- seat has to be done according to the
installing-manual, which is added tothe ISOFIX-seat.WARNING
Install the child restraint seat
fully rearward against the seat-
back with the seatback in a ver-
tical position, not reclined.
WARNING
When using the vehicle's "ISOFIX" system to install a
child restraint system in the
rear seat, all unused vehicle
rear seat belt metal latch
plates or tabs must be latched
securely in their seat belt
buckles and the seat belt web-
bing must be retracted behind
the child restraint to prevent
the child from reaching andtaking hold of unretracted
seat belts. Unlatched metal
latch plates or tabs may allow
the child to reach the unre-
tracted seat belts which mayresult in strangulation and a
serious injury or death to the
child in the child restraint.
Do not place anything around the lower anchors. Also makesure that the seat belt is not
caught in the lower anchors.
