Selecting a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
When selecting a Child Restraint
System for your child, always:
• Make sure the Child Restraint
System has a label certifying that it
meets applicable Safety Standards
of your country.
A Child Restraint System may only
be installed if it was approved in
accordance with the requirements of
ECE-R44 or ECE-R129.
• Select a Child Restraint System
based on your child’s height and
weight. The required label or the
instructions for use typically pro-
vide this information.
• Select a Child Restraint System
that fits the vehicle seating position
where it will be used.
• Read and comply with the warn-
ings and instructions for installation
and use provided with the Child
Restraint System.
•
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.
•
Be especially careful when
installing a child restraint on
the center seating position in
the second row as it is narrow-
er than the outboard positions.
A wide child restraint installed
on the center seat may cover
the safety belt buckles for the
other seating positions. Do not
allow someone to ride in a
seating position where the
safety belt buckle is covered by
a child restraint.
•
A child restraint in the center
seating position may also con-
tact or push up against the
safety belt buckles, which can
damage the buckles and make
them unusable or unsafe.
Always check that the child
restraint does not contact any
of the safety belt buckles.
Check the placement of the
child restraint regularly to
make sure that it has not shift-
ed and come into contact with
any of the safety belt buckles.
