Safety features of your vehicle
(Continued)
• Seat belts can become very
hot, especially when the vehi-
cle is parked in direct sun-
light. Always check the seat
belt buckles before fastening
them over a child.
• After an accident, have the
system checked by a profes-
sional workshop. Kia recom-
mends to visit an authorised
Kia dealer/service partner.
• If there is not enough space to
place the child restraint sys-
tem because of the driver's
seat, install the child restraint
system in the rear right seat.

Using a child restraint system
■ Rearward-facing child restraint system
■ Forward-facing child restraint system
For small children and babies, the
use of a child restraint system is
required. The child restraint system
should be of appropriate size for the
child and should be installed in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
For safety reasons, we recommend
the child restraint system to be used
in the rear seats.
WARNING
Never place a rearward facing
child restraint system in the
front passenger seat, unless the
passenger frontal air bag is
deactivated. An inflating pas-
senger-side
