WARNING!
An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to seat
failure and injury to the child. In a collision, the seat
could come loose and allow the child to crash into the
inside of the vehicle or other passengers, or even be
thrown from the vehicle. Use only the anchor positions
directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint
top tether strap. Follow the instructions below. See your
authorized dealer for help if necessary.
