If you want to
use a
child restraint with
a
top strap in the
second seat
of
a
station wagon, have your dealer install a
combination anchor-tether belt to whch the top strap
can be hooked.
For cars first sold in Canada, child restraints with a top
strap must be anchored according to Canadian law.
For sedans first sold in Canada, your dealer can obtain
the hardware kit and install it for you, or you may install
it
yourself using the instructions provided in the kit.
Use the tether hardware kit available from the dealer.
The hardware and installation instructions were
specifically designed for
this
vehicle.
Station wagons first sold in Canada already have a
combination anchor-tether belt installed for each
position on the second seat. These belts are attached to
the anchors for the third seat safety belts. The child
restraint top strap should be hooked to one of these
combination anchor-tether belts.
