Once installed, test the security of the installation before
seating a child. Attempt to twist the child safety seat
from side to side and try to pull it away from the seat,
then check to ensure the anchors remain securely in
place.
NOTE: Lower LATCH anchors should not be used with
child seats or booster seats that have an integrated
safety belt in situations where the combined weight of
the child plus the child safety seat is more than
65 lbs
(29.5 kg). In these situations, use the seat belt instead.
Attaching Upper Tether Straps
If an upper tether strap is provided, attach its hook to
the anchor point located on the back of the second and
third row (if equipped) seats.
NOTE: The location of anchor points may not be readily
visible but can be found by identifying a slice in the
seat's material.
WARNING:
Tighten upper tether straps according
to the instructions provided by the manufacturer
of the child safety seat.
WARNING:
USE ONLY SEAT BELT RETAINED
CHILD SAFETY SEATS IN THE CENTER SEATING
POSITION.
For dual-strap tethers, position a strap on each side of
the head restraint.
NOTE: If Model X is equipped with the optional six seat
interior, a center seating position is not available in the
second row.
WARNING:
When routing tether straps, keep the
strap close to the headrest as illustrated below. On
a Model X equipped with third row seats, do not
allow a tether strap to cover the third row access
button on the rear shoulder of the seat.
