Using a child restraint system
For small children and babies, the use
of a child seat or infant seat is required.
This child seat or infant seat should be
of appropriate size for the child and
should be installed in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
For safety reasons, we recommend
that the child restraint system be used
in the rear seats.
WARNING
-
Child seat
installation
• 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 chap-
ter, we recommend that the
system be checked by an
authorised Kia dealer.
• Failure to observe this manu-
al's instructions regarding child
restraint system and the
instructions provided with the
child restraint system could
increase the chance and/or
severity of injury in an accident.
WARNING
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger
seat, because of the danger that
an inflating passenger-side air
bag could impact the rear-facing
child restraint and kill the child.
