Seats and Restraints 3-51
To assist you in locating the lower
anchors, each seating position with
lower anchors has two labels, near
the crease between the seatback
and the seat cushion.
To assist you in locating the top
tether anchors, the top tether anchor
symbol is located near the top tether
anchor.
Top Tether Anchors
The top tether anchors for outboard
rear seating positions are located
on the back of the rear seatback.
Be sure to use an anchor located
on the same side of the vehicle as
the seating position where the child
restraint will be placed.
Do not secure a child restraint in a
position without a top tether anchor
if a national or local law requires
that the top tether be attached, or if
the instructions that come with the
child restraint say that the top tether
must be attached.
According to accident statistics,
children and infants are safer when
properly restrained in a child
restraint system or infant restraint
system secured in a rear seating
position. See Where to Put the
Restraint on page 3‑47 for
additional information.
