Jeep 2011 Grand Cherokee - User Guide - Manual (Page 17)

• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the
lower straps and tether straps so that
you can attach the hook or connector to
the lower tether anchorages more easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over the top of the anchorage bars, pushing
aside the seat cover material. The rear seat lower anchorages are round bars, located
at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback. The rear seat lower
anchors can be readily identified by the symbol
located on the seatback directly
above the anchorages and are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install
the child restraint.
• The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the seatback
(behind the gap panel) using the most direct path. DO NOT USE the cargo tie down
loops located on the load floor.
• Tighten all three straps as you push the
child restraint rearward and downward
into the seat.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor
to route it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the seat belt latch plate
into the buckle.
• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt to
retract into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion
around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt
occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, secure the top
tether strap. The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the
seatback (behind the gap panel) using the most direct path. DO NOT USE the cargo
tie down loops located on the load floor.
