7. Finally, pull up on any excess webbing to
tighten the lap portion around the child re-
straint while you push the child restraint
rearward and downward into the vehicle
seat.
8. If the child restraint has a top tether strap
and the seating position has a top tether
anchorage, connect the tether strap to the
anchorage and tighten the tether strap. See
the section “Installing Child Restraints Using
the Top Tether Anchorage” for directions to
attach a tether anchor.
9. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly
by pulling back and forth on the child seat at
the belt path. It should not move more than 1
inch (25.4 mm) in any direction.
Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so
check the seat belt occasionally, and pull it tight
if necessary.
Installing Child Restraints Using The Top
Tether Anchorage
WARNING!
Do not attach a tether strap for a rear-facing
car seat to any location in front of the car seat,
including the seat frame or a tether anchorage.
Only attach the tether strap of a rear-facing car
seat to the tether anchorage that is approved
for that seating position, located behind the top
of the vehicle seat. See the section “Lower
Anchors and Tethers for CHildren (LATCH)
Restraint System” for the location of approved
tether
anchorages in your vehicle.
1. Look behind the seating posi-
tion where you plan to install the
child restraint to find the tether
anchorage. You may need to
move the seat forward to pro-
vide better access to the tether
anchorage. If there is no top
tether anchorage for that seat-
ing position, move the child re-
straint to another position in the
vehicle if one is available.
2. Rotate or lift the cover to access the anchor
directly behind the seat where you are plac-
ing the child restraint.
3. Route the tether strap to provide the most
direct path for the strap between the anchor
and the child seat. If your vehicle is equipped
with adjustable rear head restraints, raise the
head restraint, and where possible, route the
tether strap under the head restraint and be-
tween the two posts. If not possible, lower the
head restraint and pass the tether strap
around the outboard side of the head restraint.
