Seats and Restraints

5.2. Route the top tether over

the center seatback or
folding armrest, if equipped.

5.3. Attach the top tether to the

slots in the back panel as
shown.

Do not tighten the top

tether at this time.

6. Pick up the latch plate on the

center position lap safety belt,
and run the lap safety belt
through the restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.

7. Push the latch plate into the

buckle until it clicks. Position the
release button on the buckle so
that the safety belt can be
unbuckled.

8. Tighten the center position lap

belt by pulling on the loose end
of the belt. It may be helpful to
use your knee to push down on
the child restraint as you tighten
the belt.

9. Tighten the top tether. Follow the

child restraint manufacturer's
instructions.

10. Before placing a child in the

child restraint, make sure it is
securely held in place. To
check, grasp the child restraint
at the safety belt path and
attempt to move it side to side
and back and forth. When the
child restraint is properly
installed, there should be no
more than 2.5 cm (1 in) of
movement.

To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle safety belt.
If the top tether is attached to the
top tether anchor, disconnect it and
reinstall the top tether anchor cover.
