1. Locate the appropriate tether anchorage

point and lift the cover.

2. If using an outer seating position, raise the

head restraint to its highest position, then
route the tether strap through the head
restraint legs. Make sure the strap is not
twisted.

Adding Security with a Tether

A tether anchorage point is provided behind
each rear seating position. A child seat that
is installed with a seat belt and comes with
a tether can use the tether for additional
security.

Adding Security with a Tether

Since a tether can provide additional security to the
lap/shoulder seat belt installation, we recommend
using a tether whenever one is available.

If using the center seating position, raise
the head restraint to its highest position,
then route the tether strap through the
head restraint legs. Make sure the strap is
not twisted.

3. Lift the anchor cover and secure the tether

strap hook onto the anchor.

4. Tighten the tether strap as instructed by

the child seat manufacturer.
