Child Restraint System (Crs); 僅 Our Recommendation: Children Always In The Rear - Kia Stinger 2022 Owner's Manual

Safety features of your vehicle
僅 Seatbelts can become hot in a vehicle
that has been closed up in sunny
weather. They could burn infants and
children.
Periodic inspection
All seat belts should be inspected peri-
odically 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
Entire in-use 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. In this case, have the system
replaced by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to consult an autho-
rised Kia dealer/service partner.

Our recommendation: Children
always in the rear
WARNING
Always properly restrain children in the
vehicle. Children of all ages are safer
when riding in the rear seats. Never
place a rearward-facing Child Restraint
System on the front passenger seat,
unless the air bag is deactivated.
Children under age 13 should always
ride in the rear seats and must always be
properly restrained to minimise the risk
of injury in an accident, sudden stop or
sudden manoeuvre.
According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seats than in the front seat. Children
too large for a Child Restraint System
must use the seat belts provided.
Most countries have regulations which
require children to travel in approved
Child Restraint Systems.
The laws governing the age or height/
weight restrictions at which seat belts
can be used instead of Child Restraint
System differs among countries, so you
should be aware of the specific require-
ments in your country, and where you
are travelling.
Child Restraint Systems must be prop-
erly installed in the vehicle seat. Always
use a commercially available Child
Restraint System that meets the require-
ments of your country.
Child Restraint System (CRS)
