Lower Anchors and Tether for
Children (LATCH System)
The LATCH 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 LATCH
system uses anchors in the vehicle and
attachments on the Child Restraint
System. The LATCH system eliminates
the need to use seat belts to secure the
Child Restraint System to the rear seats.
Lower anchors are metal bars built into
the vehicle. There are two lower anchors
for each LATCH seating position that will
accommodate a Child Restraint System
with lower attachments.
To use the LATCH system in your vehicle,
you must have a Child Restraint System
with LATCH attachments.
The Child Restraint System manufacturer
will provide you with instructions on how
to use the Child Restraint System with its
attachments for the lower anchors.
ONX4030035
Lower anchors have been provided in
the left and right outboard rear seating
positions. Their locations are shown
in the illustration. There are no lower
anchors provided for the center rear
seating position.
WARNING
Do not attempt to install a Child
Restraint System using lower anchors in
the rear center seating position. There
are no lower anchors provided for this
seat. Using the outboard seat anchors
can damage the anchors which may
break or fail in a collision resulting in
serious injury or death.

[A] : Lower Anchor Position Indicator(Type A- ,Type B- ),
[B] : Lower Anchor
The lower anchor position indicator
symbols are located on the left and right
rear seat backs to identify the position
of the lower anchors in your vehicle (see
arrows in illustration).
The lower anchors are located between
the seatback and the seat cushion of the
rear seat left and right outboard seating
positions.
WARNING
Before installing the Child Restraint
System, make sure that there are no
objects (For example: toy, pen, wire)
around the lower anchor area. Those
objects may damage either the seat belt
system or the Child Restraint System
during the installment procedure. If
necessary, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Securing a Child Restraint System
with the “LATCH Anchors System”
To install a LATCH-compatible Child
Restraint System in either of the rear
outboard seating positions:
1. Move the seat belt buckle away from the lower anchors.
2. Move any other objects away from the anchorages that could prevent
a secure connection between the
Child Restraint System and the lower
anchors.
3. Place the Child Restraint System on the vehicle seat, then attach the seat
to the lower anchors according to the
instructions provided by the Child
Restraint System manufacturer.
4. Follow the instructions of the Child Restraint System’s manufacturer for
proper installation and connection of
the lower attachments on the Child
Restraint System to the lower anchors.

Seats & Safety System3-38
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using the LATCH system:

[ Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your Child
Restraint System.

[ To prevent the child from reaching
and taking hold of unretracted
seat belts, buckle all unused rear
seat belts and retract the seat belt
webbing behind the child. Children
can be strangled if a shoulder belt
becomes wrapped around their neck
and the seat belt tightens.

[ NEVER attach more than one
Child Restraint System to a single
anchorage. This could cause the
anchor or attachment to come loose
or break.

[ Always have the LATCH system
inspected by your dealer after an
accident. An accident can damage
the LATCH system and may not
properly secure the Child Restraint
System.
NOTICE
The recommended weight for the
LATCH system is under 65 lb. (30 kg).
How to determine an appropriate child
restraint weight: Child weight + Child
restraint weight < 65 lb. (30kg)
Securing a Child Restraint System
seat with “Tether Anchor” system
system
OTL035034
First secure the child restraint with
the LATCH lower anchors or the seat
belt. If the child restraint manufacturer
recommends that the top tether strap
be attached, attach and tighten the
top tether strap to the top tether strap
anchor.
Child restraint hook holders are located
on the rear of the seatbacks.

03

ONX4030034
To install the tether anchor:
1. Route the Child Restraint System top-tether strap over the seatback.
Route the tether strap under the
head restraint and between the head
restraint posts, or route the tether
strap over the top of the vehicle
seatback. Make sure the strap is not
twisted.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the tether anchor, then tighten the
top-tether strap according to the
instructions of your Child Restraint
System’s manufacturer to firmly
attach the Child Restraint System to
the seat.
3. Check that the Child Restraint System is securely attached to the seat by
pushing and pulling the seat forward-
and-back and side-to-side.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
installing the top-tether:

[Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your Child
Restraint System.

[ NEVER attach more than one
Child Restraint System to a single
tether anchor. This could cause the
anchorage or attachment to come
loose or break.

[ Do not attach the top-tether to
anything other than the correct top-
tether anchorage. It may not work
properly if attached to something
else.

[ Child Restraint System anchorages
are designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
Child Restraint System.
Do not use them for adult seat belts,
harnesses, or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle.

Seats & Safety System3-40
Securing a Child Restraint System
with a lap/shoulder belt
WARNING
ALWAYS place a rearward-facing Child
Restraint System in the rear seat of the
vehicle.
Placing a rearward-facing child restraint
in the front seat can result in serious
injury or death if the Child Restraint
System is struck by an inflating air bag.
When not using the LATCH system, all
Child Restraint Systems must be secured
to a rear seat with the lap part of a lap/
shoulder belt.
OHI038145
Automatic locking mode
Since all passenger seat belts move
fr
eely under normal conditions and
only lock under extreme or emergency
conditions (emergency locking mode),
you must manually pull the seat belt all
the way out to shift the retractor to the
"Automatic Locking" mode to secure a
Child Restraint System.
The "Automatic Locking" mode will help
prevent the normal movement of the
child in the vehicle from causing the
seat belt to loosen and compromise
the Child Restraint System. To secure a
Child Restraint System, use the following
procedure.
To install a Child Restraint System on the
rear seats, do the following:
1. Place the Child Restraint System on a rear seat and route the lap/shoulder
belt around or through the Child
Restraint System, following the Child
Restraint System manufacturer’s
instructions. Make sure the seat belt
webbing is not twisted.
Information
When using the rear center seat belt, you
should also refer to the "Rear Seat Belt –
Passenger's 3-point system" section in this
chapter.

Seats & Safety System3-48
Curtain air bags
ONX4030040
OTM030032
Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear outboard seat occupants in
certain side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity. For vehicles equipped with a rollover
sensor the side and/or curtain air bags
and pre-tensioners on both sides of
the vehicle may deploy if a rollover or
possible rollover is detected.
The curtain air bags are not designed
to deploy in all side impact or rollover
situations.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating curtain air bag,
take the following precautions:

[
All seat occupants must wear
seat belts at all times to help keep
occupants positioned properly.

[ Properly secure Child Restraint
System as far away from the door as
possible.

[ Do not place any objects over the air
bag. Also, do not attach any objects
around the area the air bag inflates
such as the door, side door glass,
front and rear pillar, roof side rail.

[ Do not hang other objects except
clothes, especially hard or breakable
objects.
In an accident, it may cause vehicle
damage or personal injury.

[ Do not allow passengers to lean their
heads or bodies onto doors, put their
arms on the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place objects
between the doors and seats.

[ Do not attempt to open or repair
the side curtain air bags yourself. If
necessary, have the air bag inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
