Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Row Bench Seats
For the center position of a
three-passenger bench seat, attach
the tether strap directly to the
tether bracket provided under the
back edge of the seat cushion. For
the outboard positions, attach the
tether strap to the slot in the side
of the seat pedestal.
1. For any three-passenger bench seat, place the child safety seat in any
of the seating positions. For the four passenger bench, the tether
anchors are located on the left and right hand positions only.
2. Route the child safety tether
strap over the back of the bench
seat.
3. For any three passenger bench, clip the center tether strap hook to
the tether bracket mounted under rear rail of seat cushion frame. For
either the three or four passenger bench, clip the outboard tether strap
hooks to the tether bracket slot provided on the left side of each seat
pedestal. The slot is located between the two holes.
If the tether strap is clipped incorrectly, the child safety seat may not be
retained properly in the event of a crash.
4. Tighten the child safety seat tether strap according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
If the safety seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child being
injured in a crash greatly increases.
If your child restraint system is equipped with a tether strap, and the
child restraint manufacturer recommends its use, Ford also recommends
its use.
