2006 Kia Rio Owners Manual

Knowing your vehicle
Restraint of larger children
WARNING - Children on
laps
Never hold a child on your  lap or in
your arms in a moving vehicle.
Even  a very  strong person  cannot
hold  onto  a  child  in  the  event  of
even a minor collision.
WARNING - Infants and
young children
As children  grow, they may  need to use
new  child-restraint   systems,   including
larger child seats or booster seats, which
are appropriate for their increased size.
A child who has outgrown available child-
restraint  systems  should  use  the  belts
provided in  the vehicle. When  seated in
the rear outboard seats, the  child should
be restrained by the lap/shoulder belt.
If the shoulder belt portion slightly touch-
es the child’s neck or face, try placing the
child closer to the center of the vehicle. If
the shoulder  belt still  touches their  face
or  neck they  need  to  be returned  to  a
child restraint  system. In  addition, after-
market devices  are available  from inde-
pendent  manufacturers  which  help pull
the  shoulder belt  down  and  away from
the child’s face or neck.
•  Infants and young  children are at
much   greater   risk    of   serious
injury or  death in  an accident  or
sudden   stop  if   they  are   unre-
strained or restrained improperly.
Follow all instructions in this sec-
tion   and  the   instructions    that
came   with   an   approved   child
safety system. The child  restraint
must be correctly  installed in the
vehicle,  and  the   child  must  be
correctly    placed   in   the    child
restraint.
All children under 12 are safest in
the back seat.
Never  install a  rear facing  infant
seat in  the front  passenger posi-
tion. The  baby will  be  injured  or
killed by the air bag if it  deploys.
CAUTION - Hot metal parts
Safety belts and  seats can become
hot   in  a   vehicle   that   has  been
closed  during   warm/hot  weather;
they   could  burn   a   child.  Check
seats, seatbelt  webbing  and  buck-
les  before  you  place  a  child  any-
where near them.
WARNING - Shoulder  belts
on small children
Never  allow  a  child  to  stand  or
kneel  on  the   seat  of  a  moving
vehicle.
Never allow  a shoulder belt to  be
in  contact with  a child’s  neck  or
face while the vehicle is in motion.
If  safety   belts  are  not   properly
worn and adjusted, there  is a risk
of death or serious  injury to such
a child.
