Top Strap
Some child restraints have a top strap, or “top tether,”
which can help hold the child restraint during a
crash. For it to work, a top strap must be properly
anchored to the vehicle. Some child restraints with a top
strap are designed to be used whether or not the top
strap is anchored. Others require that the top strap
be anchored. Also, a national or local law may require
that the top strap be anchored.
If your child restraint top strap must be anchored, then
don’t use the restraint in this vehicle, because in it,
a top strap cannot be properly anchored.
Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers
for Children (LATCH System)
Your vehicle has lower anchors (A) at the passenger
position that can be used to install a child seat.
A label on the seatback
shows where each lower
anchor is.
