tether, see Lower Anchors and Tethers
for Children (LATCH System) 0 83 for
top tether anchor locations.
Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether anchor if
a national or local law requires that
the top tether be anchored, or if the
instructions that come with the child
restraint say that the top tether must
be anchored.
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have a
top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
If the child restraint or vehicle seat
position does not have the LATCH
system, you will be using the seat belt
to secure the child restraint. Be sure
to follow the instructions that came
with the child restraint.
If more than one child restraint needs
to be installed in the rear seat, be sure
to read Where to Put the Restraint 0 81.
If the child restraint manufacturer
recommends using a top tether, attach
and tighten the top tether to the top
tether anchor. Refer to the
instructions that came with the child
restraint and see Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children (LATCH System)
0 83.
1. Put the child restraint on the seat.
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" under
Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) 0 83.
2. Pick up the latch plate, and run the
lap and shoulder portions of the
vehicle seat belt through or around
the child restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.
3. Push the latch plate into the buckle
until it clicks.
Position the release button on the
buckle, away from the child
restraint, so that the seat belt
could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.
