• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the
lower straps and tether straps so that
you can attach the hook or connector
to the lower tether anchorages more
easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors
over the top of the anchorage bars,
pushing aside the seat cover material.
The rear seat lower anchorages are
round bars, located at the rear of the
seat cushion where it meets the
seatback. The rear seat lower anchors
can be readily identified by the
symbol
located on the seatback directly above the anchorages and are just
visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint.
• The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the
seatback (behind the gap panel) using the most direct path. DO NOT USE the cargo
tie down loops located on the load floor.
• Tighten both straps as you push the
child restraint rearward and downward
into the seat.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the
retractor to route it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the seat
belt latch plate into the buckle.
• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt
to retract into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap
portion around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so
check the belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, secure the
top tether strap. The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the
rear of the seatback (behind the gap panel) using the most direct path. DO NOT USE
the cargo tie down loops located on the load floor.
