FORD 2002 Explorer Sport Trac v.2 - Manual (Page 100)

5. Clip the tether strap to the
anchor and return the seat back to
its locked position. For the Pioneer
Edition fixed left rear seat, clip the
tether hook onto the anchor bar
with the hook toward the rear of the
vehicle.
If the tether strap is clipped
incorrectly, the child safety
seat may not be retained properly
in the event of a collision.
6. Refer to the Installing child safety seats in combination lap and
shoulder belt seating positions section of this chapter for further
instructions to secure the child safety seat.
7. Tighten the child safety seat tether strap according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
To unhook the tether strap, unfasten the seat belts securing the child
seat and put some slack into the tether strap. Tip the seat back forward
enough so that you can reach behind the seat and unhook the tether
hook. For the Pioneer Edition fixed left rear seat, fold the other seat
back down so that you can reach around the side of the left seat back
with your left hand to unclip the tether hook.
If the safety seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child
being injured in a collision greatly increases.
