Seats and Restraints 3-55
Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether anchor
if a national or local law requires
that the top tether be anchored.
In Canada, the law requires that
forward‐facing child restraints have
a top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
The lap belt would be used to
secure a child restraint in this
position, following the instructions
that came with the child restraint.
1. Adjust the driver seat to the
desired position. Fold the
armrest up, if equipped.
2. Move the passenger seat so that
the seat and seatback are
aligned with the driver seat and
seatback positions. See Seat
Adjustment on page 3‑3 or
Power Seat Adjustment on
page 3‑3 and Reclining
Seatbacks on page 3‑4 for more
information.
3. Make the center position lap belt
as long as possible by tilting the
latch plate and pulling it along
the belt.
4. Place the child restraint on
the seat.
5. If the child restraint manufacturer
recommends using a top tether
anchor, attach the top tether on
the child restraint to the top
tether anchor on the vehicle.
Route the top tether according to
the child restraint instructions
and the following instructions:
5.1. Pull on the finger access
tab to remove the cover to
access the top tether
anchor.
