Hyundai 2006 Accent Owner's Manual page 35

NOTE:
Small children are best protected from
injury in an accident when properly re-
strained in the rear seat by a child re-
straint system that meets the require-
ments of the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards. Before buying any
child restraint system, make sure that it
has a label certifying that it meets Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213. The re-
straint must be appropriate for your
child's height and weight. Check the la-
bel on the child restraint for this informa-
tion. See page 1-31.

Larger Children
Children who are too large for child re-
straint systems should always occupy the
rear seat and use the available lap/
shoulder belts. The lap portion should be
fastened snug on the hips and as low as
possible. Check belt fit periodically. A
child's squirming could put the belt out of
position. Children are afforded the most
safety in the event of an accident when
they are restrained by a proper restraint
system in the rear seat. If a larger child
(over age 13) must be seated in the front
seat, the child should be securely re-
strained by the available lap/shoulder
belt and the seat should be placed in the
rearmost position. Children under the age
of 13 should be restrained securely in the
rear seat. NEVER place a child under
the age of 13 in the front seat. NEVER
place a rear facing child seat in the front
seat of a vehicle.

Pregnant Women
The use of a seat belt is recommended for
pregnant women to lessen the chance of
injury in an accident. When a seat belt is
used, the lap belt portion should be
placed as low and snugly as possible on
the hips, not across the abdomen. For
specific recommendations, consult a phy-
sician.

Injured Person
A seat belt should be used when an
