Knowing your vehicle

Installing a child restraint system

For safety reasons, we recommend that

the child restraint system be used in the

rear seats.

Never place a rear-facing child

restraint in the front passenger seat,

because of the danger that an inflat-

ing passenger side air bag could

impact the rear-facing child restraint

and kill the child.

Since all passenger safety belts move

freely under normal conditions and only

lock under extreme or emergency condi-

tions (emergency lock mode), you must

manually change these safety belts to

the auto lock mode to secure a child

restraint.

(Continued)

• If the vehicle’s safety belt will not

properly fit the child, you must

use an appropriate child restraint

or booster seat in the rear.

• Never allow a child to stand up or

kneel while the vehicle is moving.

• Never use an infant carrier or

child seat that "hooks" over a

seatback. It will not provide ade-

quate protection in an accident.

• Never allow a child to be held

while they are in a moving vehi-

cle, as this could result in serious

injury or death to the child in the

event of an accident or sudden

stop. Holding a child in a moving

vehicle does not provide the child

with any protection during an

accident, even if the person hold-

ing the child is wearing a seat

belt.

WARNING - Child seat

installation

• Before installing the child

restraint system, read the instruc-

tions s upplied by the child

restraint system manufacturer.

• If the safety belt does not operate

as described in this section, have

the system checked immediately

by your authorized Kia dealer.

• Failure to observe this manual's

ins tructions regarding child

restraint system and the instruc-

tions provided with the child

restraint system could increase

the chance and/or severity of

injury or death in an accident.
