secure the restraints. Some
restraints also use another vehicle
anchor to secure a top tether.
1. Attach and tighten the lower
attachments to the lower
anchors. If the child restraint
does not have lower
attachments or the desired
seating position does not have
lower anchors, secure the child
restraint with the top tether and
the safety belts. Refer to the
child restraint manufacturer
instructions and the instructions
in this manual.
1.1. Find the lower anchors for
the desired rear outboard
seating position.
1.2. Put the child restraint on
the seat.
For outboard rear seating
positions, if the head
restraint interferes with the
proper installation of the
child restraint, the head
restraint may be removed.
See “Head Restraint
Removal and
Reinstallation” at the
end of this section.
1.3. Attach and tighten the lower
attachments on the child
restraint to the lower
anchors.
2. If the child restraint manufacturer
recommends that the top tether
be attached, attach and tighten
the top tether to the top tether
anchor, if equipped. Refer to the
child restraint instructions and
the following steps:
2.1. Find the top tether anchor.
Open the top tether anchor
cover to expose the anchor.
2.2. Route, attach, and tighten
the top tether according to
the child restraint
instructions and the
following instructions:
If you are using a single
tether in a rear outboard
seating position with an
adjustable head restraint,
raise the head restraint and
route the single tether
under the head restraint
and in between the head
restraint posts.
