Route the child safety seat tether strap
over the seatback, under the head
restraint and between the head restraint
posts. If needed, remove the head
restraint to improve the fit of the child
safety seat or tether strap.
• Second row center seat positions: Route
the child safety seat tether strap over the
top of the head restraint. If needed,
remove the head restraint to improve the
fit of the child safety seat or tether strap.
See Head Restraints (page 136).
• Third row seat position: Route the child
safety seat tether strap over the
seatback, under the head restraint and
between the head restraint posts. If

Child Safety
1. Route the tether strap.
2. Locate the correct anchor for the
selected seating position.
3. Clip the tether strap to the anchor as
shown. The tether hook may be twisted
½ turn to improve installation. If the tether
strap is clipped incorrectly, the child
safety seat may not be retained properly
in the event of a crash.

4. Tighten the child safety seat tether strap
according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
If the safety seat is not anchored properly,
the risk of a child being injured in a crash
greatly increases.
If your child restraint system is equipped with
a tether strap, and the child restraint
manufacturer recommends its use, we also
recommend its use.
