Child Restraint Anchorage Locations - Ford ENDURA 2017 Owner's Manual

E166723
Note: Side curtain air bags will not interfere
with a properly installed child restraint or
booster seat. The design allows them to
inflate downward from the headliner above
the doors and along the side window
openings.
When a child restraint is not in use, either
remove it and store it in a safe place, or
make sure you properly secure it. An
unsecure child restraint can become a
projectile in a crash or sudden stop and
injure someone.

ANCHORAGE LOCATIONS
Upper (Top Tether) Anchorages
WARNINGS
Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circumstances
are they to be used for adult seatbelts,
harnesses or for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
Always ensure that the attaching clip
is properly engaged with the anchor
fitting and the tether strap length is
adjusted to remove any slack.

Child Safety
Always ensure that the locking
mechanism of the rear seatback is
fully engaged when in the upright
position, by attempting to pull it down
again.
Do not attach a tether strap to
anything other than the correct
tether anchor point.
Make sure that the seatback is
secure and fully engaged in the
catch.
Make sure that the tether strap
tightening mechanism remains
accessible when the seatback is fully
engaged in the catch.
There are three child restraint top tether
anchorages, one for each rear seating
position.
The top tether anchorages are only
suitable for child restraints conforming to
Australian Standard AS1754-2004 or later.
If your child restraint does not have an
approved latched hook attaching clip as
shown, you should consult an approved
restraint fitting station.
