Canadian law requires that child restraints have a top
strap, and that the strap be anchored.
If your child restraint has
a
top
strap, your dealer can
obtain
a
kit with anchor hardware and installation
instructions specifically designed for this vehicle. The
dealer can then install the anchor for you. In Canada,
this work will be done for
you
free of charge. Or,
you
may install the anchor yourself using the instructions
provided in the kit.
