The restraint attachment clip and anchor
tting are only applicable to child restraint

not have an approved latched hook

clip is properly engaged with the
anchor tting and that the upper tether
strap length is adjusted to remove any
slack.
Installation of a child restraint
anchor tting
The following illustration shows how to
install anchor ttings to the anchorage
points. Child restraint anchor ttings
conforming to AS1754-1991 (or later)
can be purchased from child restraint
manufacturers or suppliers.
The anchorage components must be
selected and assembled as shown in
the illustration. Install the standard 30mm
bolt and the recommended spacer,
together with the anchor tting (and
cover if applicable) and lock washer
supplied with the child restraint as
illustrated.
The bolt thread should protrude at least
10mm beyond the spacer with the lock
nut washer, anchor tting and spacer
assembled together.
