Perform the following steps to install a
child safety seat with tether anchors:
For coupe:
Note:
If you install a child seat with rigid
LATCH attachments, do not tighten the
tether strap enough to lift the child seat off
your vehicle seat cushion when the child is
seated in it. Keep the tether strap just snug
without lifting the front of the child seat.
Keeping the child seat just touching your
vehicle seat gives the best protection in a
severe crash.
1.
Route the tether strap over the top of
the seatback.

2. Locate the correct anchor for the
selected seating position.
3. Open the tether anchor cover.

4. Clip the tether strap to the anchor as
shown.
5. Tighten the child safety seat tether
strap according to the manufacturer's
instructions. If your child restraint
system is equipped with a tether strap,
and the child restraint manufacturer
recommends its use, Ford also
recommends its use.
If the safety seat is not anchored properly,
the risk of a child being injured in a crash
greatly increases.
For convertible:
Note:
For easier access, attach the tether
with the convertible top up.
