152 SAFETY
WARNING!
An incorrectly anchored tether strap could

lead to increased head motion and
possible injury to the child. Use only the
anchorage position directly behind the child
seat to secure a child restraint top tether
strap.
If your vehicle is equipped with a split rear

seat, make sure the tether strap does not
slip into the opening between the seat-
backs as you remove slack in the strap.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is not equipped with a rear seat,
FCA US LLC recommends that you do not allow
children 12 years old and under to ride in your
vehicle. If the rear seats are not present in your
vehicle, NEVER install a child restraint in these
positions. If you must install a forward facing
child restraint in the front passenger seat, then
you must use the seat belt system to secure the
restraint. A top tether strap extension may be
needed to reach the tether anchor on the rear
shelf directly behind the passenger seat.

RANSPORTING ETS
Air Bags deploying in the front seat could harm
your pet. An unrestrained pet will be thrown
about and possibly injured, or injure a
passenger during panic braking or in a collision.
Pets should be restrained in the rear seat (if
equipped) in pet harnesses or pet carriers that
are secured by seat belts.
