seat with Tether Anchor system
OTL035034
First secure the child restraint with
the LATCH lower anchors or the seat
belt. If the child restraint manufacturer
recommends that the top tether strap
be attached, attach and tighten the
top tether strap to the top tether strap
anchor.
Tether anchors are located on the rear of
the seatbacks.

To install the tether anchor:
1. Route the Child Restraint System
top tether strap over the seatback.
Route the tether strap under the
head restraint and between the head
restraint posts, or route the tether
strap over the top of the vehicle
seatback. Make sure the strap is not
twisted.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to
the tether anchor, then tighten the
top tether strap according to the
instructions of your Child Restraint
System’s manufacturer to firmly
secure the Child Restraint System.
3. Check the Child Restraint System is
secure by pushing and pulling the seat
forward and back and side-to-side.
