If the tether strap is too long and
cannot be tightened firmly, find a
route where the strap can be
tightened securely.
Tighten the strap according to the
seat maker’s instructions.
After properly securing the child
seat (see page ), lift the head
restraint, then route the tether
strap over the seat-back and
through the head restraint legs.
Attach the tether strap hook to the
anchor, making sure the strap is
not twisted.
A child seat with a tether can be
installed in any seating position in
the back seat, using one of the
anchorage points shown above.
Since a tether can provide additional
security to the lap/shoulder belt
installation, we recommend using
a tether whenever one is required
or available.
