Dodge 18681 Viper - Manual (Page 36)

These are round bars, located at the lower area of the seat
back, one on each side of the passenger seat. You will
easily feel them if you run your finger along the inter-
section of the surface. Install your child seat as per child
seat manufacturer recommendations.
NOTE: If your child restraint seat is not LATCH com-
patible, install the restraint using the vehicle seat belts.
Child Restraint Tether Anchor
Child restraints having tether straps and hooks for con-
nection to tether anchors have been available for some
time. In fact, many child restraint manufacturers will
provide add-on tether strap kits for some of their older
products. There is a tether strap anchor located in the
child tether access cover behind the passenger seat.
Remove the child tether access cover by prying either
side with a screwdriver or similar tool, as shown in
illustration which follows. While the child tether is in
use, keep the access cover in a safe place so that it can be
replaced after use of the child tether.
To attach the tether strap to the anchor, move the
seatback fully forward. Pass the child restraint tether
hook through either opening in the seatback under the
head restraint. Attach the tether hook to the anchor loop,
