SAFETY
NOTE:
If there are child seats in both of the outboard
(left and right) seating positions, the tether
strap hooks of both child seats should be
connected to the center tether strap loop. This
is the correct way to tether two outboard child
seats.
Center Seat:
1. Raise the head restraint and reach
between the rear seat and rear glass to
access the tether strap loop.

2. Place a child restraint on the seat and
adjust the tether strap so that it will reach
over the seat back, under the head
restraint, through the tether strap loop
behind the seat and over to the tether strap
loop behind either the right or left outboard
seat.
3. Pass the tether strap hook under the head
restraint behind the child seat, though the
tether strap loop behind the seat and over
to the right or left outboard tether strap
loop.
