Safety system
Seat belt use and children
Infant and small children
Most countries have Child Restraint
Systems laws which require children
to travel in approved Child Restraint
Systems devices, including booster
seats. The age at which seat belts can be
used instead of Child Restraint Systems
differs among countries, so you should
be aware of the specific requirements
in your country, and where you are
travelling. Infant and Child Restraint
Systems must be properly placed and
installed in a rear seat. For more details,
refer to the “Child Restraint Systems” in
this chapter.
WARNING
ALWAYS properly restrain infants and
small children in a Child Restraint System
appropriate for the child’s height and
weight.
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death to a child and other passengers,
NEVER hold a child in your lap or arms
when the vehicle is moving. The violent
forces created during an accident will
tear off the child from your arms and
throw the child against the interior of the
vehicle.
Small children are best protected from
injury in an accident when properly
restrained in the rear seat by a Child
Restraint System that meets the
requirements of the Safety Standards of
your country. Before buying any Child
Restraint System, make sure that it has
a label certifying that it meets Safety
Standard of your country. The restraint
must be appropriate for your child’s
height and weight. Check the label
on the Child Restraint System for this
information. Refer to “Child Restraint
Systems” in this chapter.
Larger children
Children under age 13 and who are too
large for a booster seat must always
occupy the rear seat and use the
available lap/shoulder belts. A seat belt
should lie across the upper thighs and
be snug across the shoulder and chest
to restrain the child safely. Check belt fit
periodically. A child’s squirming could
put the belt out of position. Children are
afforded the most safety in the event of
an accident when they are restrained by
a proper restraint system and/or seat
belts in the rear seat.
If a larger child over age 13 must be
seated in the front seat, the child must
be securely restrained by the available
lap/shoulder belt and the seat should be
placed in the rearmost position.
If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child’s neck or face, try
placing the child closer to the centre
of the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck, they need to
be returned to an appropriate booster
seat in the rear seat.
WARNING

[Always make sure larger children’s
seat belts are worn and properly
adjusted.

[NEVER allow the shoulder belt to
contact the child’s neck or face.

[Do not allow more than one child to
use a single seat belt.

Child Restraint System (CRS) always
in the rear
Infants and younger children must be
restrained in an appropriate rearward-
facing or forward-facing CRS that has
first been properly secured to the rear
seat of the vehicle. Read and comply
with the instructions for installation and
use provided by the manufacturer of the
Child Restraint System.
WARNING

[Always follow the Child Restraint
System manufacturer’s instructions
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 provide
adequate protection in an accident.

[After an accident, we recommend
a HYUNDAI dealer check the Child
Restraint System, seat belts,
ISOFIX anchorages and top-tether
anchorages.
Selecting a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
When selecting a CRS for your child,
always:

[Make sure a CRS has a label certifying
that it meets applicable Safety
Standards of your country.

[Select a CRS based on your child’s
height and weight. The required label
or the instructions for use typically
provide this information.

[Select a CRS that fits the vehicle
seating position where it will be used.

[Read and comply with the warnings
and instructions for installation and
use provided with a CRS.
Child Restraint System types
There are three main types of Child
Restraint Systems: rearward-facing
seats, forward-facing seats, and booster
seats. They are classified according to
the child’s age, height and weight.

3-32
Safety system
CRS09
Rearward-facing Child Restraint
System
A rearward-facing Child Restraint
System provides restraint with the
seating surface against the back of the
child. The harness system holds the
child in place, and in an accident, acts
to keep the child positioned in the Child
Restraint Systems and reduce the stress
to the fragile neck and spinal cord.
All children under the age of one
year must always ride in a rearward-
facing Child Restraint System. There
are different types of rearward-facing
Child Restraint Systems: infant-only
Child Restraint Systems can only be
used rearward-facing. Convertible
and 3-in-1 Child Restraint Systems
typically have higher height and weight
limits for the rearward-facing position
system, allowing you to keep your child
rearward-facing for a longer period of
time.
Keep using Child Restraint Systems in
the rearward-facing position as long as
children fit within the height and weight
limits allowed by the Child Restraint
System’s manufacturer.
OIB034017
Forward-facing Child Restraint
System
A forward-facing Child Restraint System
provides restraint for the child’s body
with a harness. Keep children in a
forward-facing Child Restraint System
with a harness until they reach the top
height or weight limit allowed by your
Child Restraint System’s manufacturer.
Once your child outgrows the forward-
facing Child Restraint System, your child
is ready for a booster seat.
Booster seats
A booster seat is Child Restraint System
designed to improve the fit of the
vehicle’s seat belt system. A booster
seat positions the seat belt so that it fits
properly over your child’s stronger body
parts. Keep your children in booster
seats until they are big enough to fit in a
seat belt properly.
For a seat belt to fit properly, the lap belt
must lie comfortable across the upper
thighs, not the stomach. The shoulder
belt should lie comfortable across the
shoulder and chest and not across the
neck or face. Children under age 13
must always be properly restrained to
minimise the risk of injury in an accident,
sudden stop or sudden manoeuvre.

Safety system
Additional safety precautions
Passengers should not move out of
or change seats whilst the vehicle is
moving. A passenger who is not wearing
a seat belt during a crash or emergency
stop can be thrown against the inside of
the vehicle, against other occupants, or
be ejected from the vehicle.
Do not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiming to improve
occupant comfort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provided
by the seat belt and increase the chance
of serious injury in a crash
Do not modify the front seats.
Modification of the front seats could
interfere with the operation of the
supplemental restraint system sensing
components or side air bags.
Do not place items under the front
seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the operation
of the supplemental restraint system
sensing components and wiring
harnesses.
Do not cause impact to the doors.
Impact to the doors when the ignition
switch is in the ON position may cause
the air bags to inflate.
Adding equipment to or modifying
your air bag equipped vehicle
If you modify your vehicle by changing
your vehicle’s frame, bumper system,
front end or side sheet metal or ride
height, this may affect the operation of
your vehicle’s air bag system.
Air bag warning labels
(if equipped)
OAC3039035R
Air bag warning labels are attached to
alert the passengers of potential risks of
the air bag system.
Be sure to read all of the information
about the air bags that are installed on
your vehicle in this Owner’s Manual.

Parking brake warning light
Check the Parking Brake
Warning Light by placing the
ignition switch to the ON
position (do not start the
engine).
This light will illuminate when the
parking brake is applied with the ignition
switch in the START or ON position.
Before driving, be sure the parking brake
is released and the Brake Warning Light
is OFF.
If the Parking Brake Warning Light
remains on after the parking brake is
released whilst the engine is running,
there may be a malfunction in the
brake system. Immediate attention is
necessary.
If at all possible, cease driving the
vehicle immediately. If that is not
possible, use extreme caution whilst
operating the vehicle and only continue
to drive the vehicle until you can reach a
safe location.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
WARNING
An Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) or
an Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system will not prevent accidents
due to improper or dangerous driving
manoeuvres. Even though vehicle
control is improved during emergency
braking, always maintain a safe
distance between you and objects
ahead of you. Vehicle speeds should
always be reduced during extreme
road conditions. The braking distance
for vehicles equipped with ABS or ESC
may be longer than for those without
these systems in the following road
conditions.
Drive your vehicle at reduced speeds
during the following conditions:

[Rough, gravel or snow-covered
roads.

[On roads where the road surface is
pitted or has different surface height.

[Tyre chains are installed on your
vehicle.
The safety features of an ABS or ESC
equipped vehicle should not be tested
by high speed driving or cornering. This
could endanger the safety of yourself
or others.
ABS is an electronic braking system that
helps prevent a braking skid. ABS allows
the driver to steer and brake at the same
time.
