Installing the Tether Strap (continued)
•
For individuals greater than 80 lb (36 kg):
use two (2)
tether hooks attaching one (1) tether hook to the tether anchor
immediately behind the restraint AND one (1) tether hook to the
closest adjacent tether anchor.
See Figure 8.
5. Remove any slack in the tether by pulling the loose ends of the tether
through the tension adjuster hooks.
6. Verify that the tether is appropriately attached and tensioned as
noted above.
Non-LATCH Vehicle Installation
: If the desired seating position in the
vehicle does not have a LATCH top tether anchor (which may be the
case for vehicles that were made before 2002), it is necessary to use
a bolt-in anchor mounting bracket to secure the tether strap. Contact
Inspired by Drive directly for more details on acquiring an anchor
