part of the belt near the buckle and pull up to remove any
slack from the lap part of the belt allowing the slack to

not tight, the child restraint system will not be secure. It
may help to put your weight on the child restraint system
and/or push on its seatback while pulling up on the belt
(see illustration).
6. Open the cover from the tether anchor installation point
by pulling it back with your hand as illustrated below (6).
7. Latch the tether strap hook (A) of the child restraint sys-
tem to the tether anchor (B) as illustrated below (7) and
tighten the top tether strap so it is securely fastened.
8. Before putting your child in the restraint, push and pull
the restraint in all directions to be sure it is firmly secure.
Do this before each use. If the child restraint system is not
firmly secure, repeat steps 1 through 7.
If your child restraint system requires the use of a tether strap,
fasten the tether strap in accordance with the following proce-
dures.
WARNING
!
● Child restraint tether anchors are designed only to
withstand loads from correctly fitted child restraint
systems. Under no circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, or harnesses, or for attaching
other items or equipment to the vehicle.
