Storage of Tether
Strap/Hook:
When the tether is not
in use, attach the tether
hook to recline stand as
shown. Tighten tether to
remove the slack.
Always attach, adjust, and secure the top anchorage
(tether) strap when installing the child restraint forward
facing. Tethers improve the installation and stability of child
restraints and reduce the risk of injury.
Attach the tether hook to the tether anchor designated by
your vehicle manufacturer for that seating position. Check
your vehicle owner’s manual for more information.
If the seating position does not have a tether anchor, use a
different seating position or see your dealer or a qualified
mechanic and have one installed. The tether can greatly
improve the performance of this child restraint.
