Seats and Restraints 3-49
Second Row — Bucket Shown,
Bench Similar
The top tether anchors are at the
bottom rear of the seatback for each
seating position in the second row.
Be sure to use an anchor on the
same side of the vehicle as the
seating position where the child
restraint will be placed.
Third Row
The third row has one top tether
anchor at the bottom rear of the
center seatback. This anchor
should be used for the center
seating position only. Never install
two top tethers using the same top
tether anchor.
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 3‑44 for
additional information.
