**Vehicles are now (or can be) equipped with tether anchor

points behind some seats. A tether anchors the top of the

child restraint to the body of the vehicle. When used

properly with the vehicle seat belt or LATCH, a tether

helps reduce injury in a sudden stop or crash.

***United States Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards

have defined a new system for installing child restraints in

vehicles. The system is called LATCH. LATCH may ONLY

be used IN PLACE of vehicle belt if vehicle is

equipped with LATCH anchor points. Please refer

to vehicle owner’s manual for LATCH locations

in vehicles.
