each second and third row seating position. A
child seat that is installed with a seat belt and
comes with a tether can use the tether for
additional security.

and allow the seat belt to wind up all the way.
1Adding Security with a Tether
Since a tether can provide additional security to the
lap/shoulder seat belt installation, we recommend
using a tether whenever one is available.
