If the child restraint system requires a top
tether, latch the hook onto the top tether
anchorage and tighten the top tether. For
additional instructions, refer to "Top tether
anchorages" F1-41.
For further information, refer to the in-
struction manual supplied by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
CAUTION
When you install a child restraint
system, follow the manufacturer's
instructions supplied with it. After
installing the child restraint system,
check to ensure that it is held
securely in position. If it is not held
tight and secure, the danger of your

child suffering personal injury in the
event of an accident may be in-
creased.
NOTE
Before installing a child restraint sys-
tem, ask the manufacturer of the sys-
tem to confirm that it is one approved
for your vehicle.
& Top tether anchorages
Your vehicle is provided with two or three
top tether anchorages so that a child
restraint system having a top tether can
be installed in the rear seat. When
installing a child restraint system using
top tether, proceed as follows, while
observing the instructions by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
Since a top tether can provide additional
stability by offering another connection
between a child restraint system and the
vehicle, we recommend that you use a top
tether whenever one is required or avail-
able.
