Adjusting the Tether Strap
Tether straps are required in Canada.
Using this child restraint without the tether
strap anchored as recommended by the
manufacturer would be a misuse of the child
restraint and, in a sudden stop or crash,
could cause serious injury or death.
The tether strap is used for the forward-facing position only.
Vehicles manufactured today already have the tether anchor
hardware installed in the vehicle. Refer to your owner’s
manual for locations. If your vehicle does not have a tether
anchor bracket, please see your dealer or a qualified
mechanic and have one installed.
To loosen:
Lift up on
tether adjuster and push
lock toward the tether
hook.
