ages are visible.

downward and push it in the direction of the arrow onto
the anchorage => page

fig. 248.

manufacturer's
instructions.
-
Push down on the seat cushion so that the lower anchor -
ages are visible.
- Pull off the guidance fixtures from the lower anchorages.
- Always remove the guidance fixtures and keep them in a
safe place when not in use.
You may find it easier to install child restraints equipped with hooks
attached to straps without the guidance fixtures in place . If this is
the case, remove the guidance fixtures by pulling them off the
anchorages. However, the guidance fixtures can help you to locate
the LATCH anchorages.

WARNING
Improper use of tether anchorages or lower anchorages can cause
serious personal injury in a crash.
Always carefully follow the child restraint manufacturer's
instructions for proper installation and use of child restraint
systems.
&
WARNING (continued)
Never use the LATCH or tether anchorages to attach safety
belts or other kinds of occupant restraints.
Child restraint tether attachments and lower attachments are
only designed to secure a child restraint that has been equipped
to use these anchorages.
Tether anchorages and lower anchorages are designed to with-
stand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints.
Under no circumstances can they be used safely for adult or child
safety belts or harnesses.
Never mount more than one child restraint to a single tether or
to a lower anchorage point. Attaching two child restraints to a
single anchorage point can cause the anchorage to fail and cause
serious personal injury in a crash.

Note
Remove the guidance fixtures before folding the rear seatback to
prevent damaging the seat cushion.
If you leave the guidance fixtures installed for several days, they
could leave a mark on the upholstery on the seat cushion and back-
rest in the area that the guidance fixtures were installed. The uphol -
stery would also be permanently stretched around the guidance
fixtures . This applies especially to leather seats .
