FORD 2013 Transit Connect v.1 - Manual (Page 29)

Combining LATCH lower anchors with tethers for attaching child
safety seats (5-passenger Taxi only)
When the LATCH lower anchors and tethers are used together, use the
following attachment combinations only:
• Use LATCH lower anchor A with
tether A as depicted in the
graphic.
• Use LATCH lower anchor B with
tether B as depicted in the
graphic.
• Note: Do not use the LATCH lower anchors in combination with
tether C.
Using Tether Straps
Many forward-facing child safety seats include a tether strap
which extends from the back of the child safety seat and hooks
to an anchoring point called the top tether anchor. Tether
straps are available as an accessory for many older safety seats.
Contact the manufacturer of your child seat for information about
ordering a tether strap, or to obtain a longer tether strap if the tether
strap on your safety seat does not reach the appropriate top tether
anchor in the vehicle.
The rear seating positions of your vehicle are equipped with built-in
tether strap anchors located behind the seats on the d-pillar in the cargo
area as described below.
