Securing Top Tether
& WARNING Risk of injury or death if the
rear seat backrests are not locked after
Top Tether belts are installed
The rear seat backrests may fold forwards
when you are driving.
As a result, child restraint systems will no
longer be able to perform their intended pro‐
tective function. This may also cause addi‐
tional injuries.
Always lock rear seat backrests after
#
installing Top Tether belts.
Observe the lock verification indicator.
#
If the left and right seat backrests are not
engaged and locked in place, this will be shown
on the multifunction display on the instrument
cluster.
If the center seat backrest is not engaged and
locked in place, the red lock verification indica‐
tor will be visible.
¯ If the child restraint system is equipped
with a Top Tether belt:
The risk of injury may be reduced by Top
Tether. The Top Tether belt enables an
additional connection between the child
restraint system attached with LATCH-
type (ISOFIX) and the vehicle.
If necessary, slide head restraint

( page 95).
