Seats and Restraints
2.2. Route, attach, and tighten the top
tether according to your child
restraint instructions and the
following instructions:
If the position you are using does
not have a headrest or head
restraint and you are using a single
tether, route the tether over the
seatback.
If the position you are using does
not have a headrest or head
restraint and you are using a dual
tether, route the tether over the
seatback.
If the position you are using has a
fixed headrest or head restraint and
you are using a single tether, route
the tether around the inboard side
of the headrest or head restraint.
If the position you are using has a
fixed or an adjustable head restraint
and you are using a dual tether,
route the tether around the head
restraint.
If the child restraint is installed next
to a center seat, make sure the top
tether does not interfere with the
center seating position shoulder
belt/retractor. If it does, find
another suitable seating position to
install the child restraint.
3. Before placing a child in the child
restraint, make sure it is securely held in
place. To check, grasp the child restraint
at the LATCH path and attempt to move
it side to side and back and forth. There
should be no more than 2.5 cm (1 in) of
movement, for proper installation.
