Installing A Child Restraint System (Crs) - Hyundai i10 Owner's Manual

Safety system of your vehicle
Booster seats
A booster seat is a restraint 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 the stronger
parts of your child's body. Keep your chil-
dren 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 snugly across the upper thighs,
not the stomach. The shoulder belt
should lie snug across the shoulder and
chest and not across the neck or face.
Children under age 13 must always ride
in the rear seats and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the risk of
injury in an accident, sudden stop or sud-
den maneuver.

Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
WARNING
Before installing your child restraint
always:
• Read and follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of
the child restraint.
• Read and follow the instructions
regarding child restraint systems
in this manual.
Failure to follow all warnings and
instructions could increase the
risk of the SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH if an accident occurs.
After selecting a proper child restraint
and checking that the child restraint fits
properly in the rear of this vehicle, you
are ready to install the child restraint
according to the manufacturer's instruc-
tion. There are three general steps in
installing the seat properly:
• Properly secure the child restraint
to the vehicle. All child restraints must
be secured to the vehicle with the lap
part of a lap/shoulder belt or with the
ISOFIX top-tether anchorage and/or
ISOFIX lower anchorage
• Make sure the child restraint is firm-
ly secured. After installing a child
restraint to the vehicle, push and pull
the seat forward and from side-to-side
to verify that it is securely attached to
the seat. A child restraint secured with
a seat belt should be installed as firm-
ly as possible. However, some side-to-
side movement can be expected.
• Secure the child in the child restraint.
Make sure the child is properly strapped
in the child restraint according to the child
restraint manufacturer's instructions.
WARNING
A child restraint 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.
If the vehicle head restraint prevents
proper installation of a child seat (as
described in the CRS manual), the head
restraint of the respective seating posi-
tion shall be readjusted or entirely
removed.
To properly accommodate child seats in
all adjustment positions, the front pas-
senger seat may be moved rearwards
with the seat back in an upright adjust-
ment not passing beyond the B-pillar.
