The tether strap anchors in your vehicle are in the following positions
(shown from top view):

Perform the following steps to install a child safety seat with tether
anchors:

Note: If you install a child seat with rigid LATCH attachments, do not
tighten the tether strap enough to lift the child seat off the vehicle seat
cushion when the child is seated in it. Keep the tether strap just snug
without lifting the front of the child seat. Keeping the child seat just
touching the vehicle seat gives the best protection in a severe crash.

1. Route the child safety seat tether strap over the back of the seat.

For outboard seating positions, route the tether strap under the head
restraint and between the head restraint posts. For the center seating
positions, route the tether strap over the top of the head restraint. If
needed, the head restraints can also be removed.

2. Locate the correct anchor behind
the gap cover for the selected
seating position.

3. Pull the gap cover reward to
expose the anchors. Clip the tether
strap to the anchor as shown.
