Our recommendation:
Children always in the rear
Children under age 13 should 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 regulations 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 coun-
tries, so you should be aware of the
specific requirements in your country,
and where you are travelling.
Child Restraint Systems must be
properly installed in the vehicle seat.
Always use a commercially available
Child Restraint System that meets the
requirements of your country.
Child Restraint System (CRS)
Infants and younger children must be
restrained in an appropriate rearward-
facing or forward-facing CRS that has
first been properly secured to the 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 (CRS)
Always properly restrain children
in the vehicle. Children of all ages
are safer when riding in the rear
seats. Never place a rearward-
facing Child Restraint System on
the front passenger seat, unless
the air bag is deactivated.
WARNING
•
Always follow the Child Restraint
System manufacturer’s instruc-
tions 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 pro-
vide adequate protection in an
accident.
•
After an accident, we recom-
mend a HYUNDAI dealer to
check the Child Restraint
System, seat belts, ISOFIX
anchorages and top-tether
anchorages.
