Using the Tether
• When using the restraint in forward-facing position, attach
the tether only to tether anchors identified by the vehicle
manufacturer as tether anchorage points. Use of other locations
is not approved or permitted.
• The manufacturer recommends that the tether be used in
forward-facing mode. Using the tether will improve the stability of
the child restraint and reduce the risk of injury.
• If the vehicle does not currently have a tether anchor attachment,
refer to the vehicle owner’s manual or contact the vehicle
manufacturer for assistance.
• If tether anchorage is not available, do not modify the vehicle
without advice from the vehicle manufacturer.
• Do not hook the tether to a vehicle seat mechanism!
• The back angle of the child restraint should be approximately 45º
when properly installed in the rear-facing position.
