FORD 2014 Flex v.1 - Manual (Page 30)

• Standard safety belt
• Inflatable safety belt
9. Attach the tether strap (if the child seat is equipped). See Using
Tether Straps later in this chapter.
10. Before placing the child in the
seat, forcibly move the seat forward
and back to make sure the seat is
securely held in place. To check this,
grab the seat at the belt path and
attempt to move it side to side
and forward and back. There
should be no more than 1 inch
(2.5 centimeters) of movement for
proper installation.
Ford recommends checking with a NHTSA Certified Child Passenger
Safety Technician to make certain the child restraint is properly installed.
In Canada, check with your local St. John Ambulance office for referral
to a Child Passenger Safety Technician.
