WARNING:
o 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's
front airbag to deploy, it could se-
verely 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.
o A safety 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.
o When the child restraint system is not
in use, store it in the trunk or fasten it
with a safety belt so that it will not be
thrown forward in the case of a sud-
den stop or an accident.
!
WARNING:
o Children who are too large to be in a
child restraint should sit in the rear
seat and be restrained with the avail-
able lap/shoulder belts. Never allow
children to ride in the front passenger
seat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder
belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt is
positioned midway over the shoulder
and never across the neck or behind
the back. Moving the child closer to-
ward the seat belt buckle may help
provide a good shoulder belt fit. The
lap belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt
must always be positioned as low as
possible on the child's hips, and as
snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the
child, Hyundai recommends the use
of an approved booster seat in the
rear seat in order to raise the child's
seating height so that the seat belt will
properly fit the child.

WARNING:
Before purchasing a booster seat,
make sure that it meets applicable
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dards (FMVSS) and that it is satisfac-
tory for use with this vehicle.
o Never allow a child to stand up or
kneel on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or a child
safety seat that "hooks" over a
seatback; it may not provide ad-
equate security in an accident.
o Never allow a child to be held in a
person's arms while they are in a
moving vehicle, as this could result in
serious injury to the child in the event
of an accident or a sudden stop. Hold-
ing a child in a moving vehicle does
not provide the child with any means
of protection during an accident, even
if the person holding the child is wear-
ing a seat belt.
