Safety system
Do not lie down
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.
Even when buckled up, the protections
of your restraint system (seat belts
and/or air bags) is greatly reduced by
reclining your seatback. Seat belts must
be snug against your hips and chest
to work properly. During an accident,
you could be thrown into the seat belt,
causing neck or other injuries.
The more the seat back is reclined, the
greater the chance for the passenger’s
hips to slide under the lap belt or the
passenger’s neck to strike the shoulder
belt.
WARNING
• NEVER ride with a reclined seatback
when the vehicle is moving.
• Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of serious
or fatal injuries in the event of a
collision or sudden stop.
• Driver and passengers should always
sit well back in their seats,properly
belted,and with the seatbacks
upright.
Care of seat belts
Seat belt systems should never be
disassembled or modified. In addition,
care should be taken to assure that
seat belts and belt hardware are not
damaged by seat hinges, doors or other
abuse.
Periodic inspection
All seat belts should be inspected
periodically for wear or damage of any
kind. Any damaged parts should be
replaced as soon as possible.
Keep belts clean and dry
Seat belts should be kept clean and
dry. If belts become dirty, they can be
cleaned by using a mild soap solution
and warm water. Bleach, dye, strong
detergents or abrasives should not be
used because they may damage and
weaken the fabric.
When to replace seat belts
The entire seat belt assembly or
assemblies should be replaced if the
vehicle has been involved in an accident.
This should be done even if no damage
is visible.We recommend that you
consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Children riding in the car should sit
in the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained in the rear
seats than in the front seat. Larger
children not in a child restraint should
use one of the seat belts provided.
You should be aware of the specific
requirements in your country. Child and/
or infant safety seats must be properly
placed and installed in the rear seat.
You must use a commercially available
child restraint system that meets the
requirements of the Safety Standards of
your country.
Child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats by the lap
belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt.
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured. For small children and babies, a
child seat or infant seat must be used.
Before buying a particular child restraint
syst em, make sure it fits your car seat
and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow
all the instructions provided by the
manufacturer when installing the child
restraint system. WARNING
• A child restraint system must be
placed in the rear seat. Never install
a child or infant seat on the front
passenger’s seat. Should an accident
occur and cause the passenger-side
air bag to deploy, it could severely
injure or kill an infant or child seated
in an infant or child seat. Thus only
use a child restraint in the rear seat of
your vehicle.
• A seat belt or child restraint system
can become very hot if it is left in a
closed vehicle on a sunny day, even
if the outside temperature does not
feel hot. Be sure to check the seat
cover and buckles before placing a
child there.
• When the child restraint system is not
in use, store it in the luggage area or
fasten it with a seat belt so that it will
not be thrown forward in the case of
a sudden stop or an accident.
• Children may be seriously injured
or killed by an inflating air bag. All
children, even those too large for
child restraints, must ride in the rear
seat.

4-26
Safety system
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 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.
• Never hold a child in your arms or lap
when riding in a vehicle. The violent
forces created during a crash will tear
the child from your arms and throw
the child against the car’s interior.
• 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 inadvertently cause the
vehicle to move, entangle themselves
in the windows, or lock themselves or
others inside the vehicle.
• Never allow two children, or any two
persons, to use the same seat belt.• Children often squirm and reposition
themselves improperly. Never let
a child ride with the shoulder belt
under their arm or behind their back.
Always properly position and secure
children in rear seat.
• Never allow a child to stand-up or
kneel on the seat or floorboard of a
moving vehicle. During a collision
or sudden stop, the child can be
violently thrown against the vehicles
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 in an accident.
• Seat belts can become very hot,
especially when the car is parked in
direct sunlight. Always check seat
belt buckles before fastening them
over a child.
• After an accident, we recommend
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.

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 is used in the
rear seats.
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.
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 car and the child is not properly
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 operate
as described in this section, we
recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
• Failure to observe this manual’s
instructions regarding child restraint
system and the instructions provided
with the child restraint system could
increase the risk and/or severity of
injury in an accident.

Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
WARNING
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
(as described in the Child Restraint
System manual), the headrest of the
respective seating position shall be
readjusted or entirely removed.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 System properly:
• Properly secure the Child Restraint
System to the vehicle. All Child
Restraint Systems must be secured to
the vehicle with the lap belt or lap part
of a lap/shoulder belt or with the top-
tether 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 Child Restraint
System forward and from side-
to-side to verify that it is securely
attached to the vehicle seat. A Child
Restraint System secured with a seat
belt should be installed as firmly as
possible. However, some side-to-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 manufacturer’s
instructions.
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 top-tether
anchorage (ISOFIX system) for
children (if equipped)
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
attachments 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 anchors are metal bars built into
the vehicle. There are two lower anchors
for each ISOFIX seating 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 attachments. (An
ISOFIX-Child Restraint System may only
be installed if it has vehicle-specific or
universal approval in accordance with
the requirements of ECE-R 44 or ECE-R
129.)
The Child Restraint System manufacturer
will provide you with instructions on how
to use the Child Restraint System with its
attachments for the lower anchorages.
OLM039035OLM039035
ISOFIX anchorages have been provided
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.
WARNING
Do not attempt to install a Child
Restraint System using ISOFIX
anchorages in the rear center
seating position. There are no ISOFIX
anchorages provided for this seat.
Using the outboard seat anchorages,
for the CRS installation on the rear
center seating position, can damage
the anchorages which may break or fail
in a collision resulting in serious injury
or death.
