WARNING! Only use the tether connector strap for a rear-
facing tether installation.
Because every vehicle model is different,
sometimes you cannot find a location to
properly anchor the tether. Use the tether
connector strap to assist in creating an anchor
point (Fig. D).
Find a fixed vehicle anchor point that is 1
bolted to the floor.
If you cannot find an acceptable location to •
create an anchor point, contact the vehicle
manufacturer to identify a suitable tether
connection point.
Route the strap around the fixed vehicle 2
anchor point.
Take the metal D-ring and thread it through 3
the webbing loop on the other end of the
strap (Fig. D).
Pull the metal D-ring all the way through until 4
the strap is tight.
Use the D-ring as an attachment point for 5
the hook on the tether strap.
NOTE: Store the tether connector strap in the
tether pouch when not in use.
