Installing Child Restraints Using The Top Tether
Anchorage: Commercial
This vehicle is equipped with a tether strap anchorage

located behind the front passenger seatback, near the

floor. When installing a forward-facing child restraint,

always secure the top tether strap to the tether anchorage.
1. Look behind the front passenger seat to find the tether

anchorage. You may need to move the seat forward to

provide better access to the tether anchorage.

2. Route the tether strap to provide the most direct path

for the strap between the anchor and the child seat. If

your vehicle is equipped with adjustable head re-

straints, raise the head restraint, and where possible,

route the tether strap under the head restraint and

between the two posts. If not possible, lower the head

restraint and pass the tether strap around the outboard

side of the head restraint.

3. Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to

the top tether anchorage as shown in the diagram.

4. Remove slack in the tether strap according to the child

restraint manufacturer’s instructions.

WARNING!

An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to
increased head motion and possible injury to the
child. Use only the anchorage position directly be-
hind the child seat to secure a child restraint top
tether strap.
