Attaching Safety Seats With Tether Straps; Front Passenger Seating Position - Ford Econoline Owner's Manual

Attaching safety seats with tether straps

Children should be placed in the rear in an appropriate child
safety seat that is properly secured to the vehicle.
When using forward-facing child safety seats in vehicles with
only two seating positions so the forward-facing child safety seat
cannot be placed in the rear of the vehicle, move the passenger seat as
far back from the instrument panel as possible.
Do not use a forward–facing safety seat or an infant seat in the
last row of a 12– or 15–passenger Club Wagon.
Air bags can kill or injure a child in a child seat. NEVER place a
rear-facing child seat in front of an active air bag. If you must
use a forward-facing child seat in the front seat, move the seat all the
way back.

Front passenger seating position

The tether can be attached directly
to the rear of the front seat.
1. Position the child safety seat on
the front right-hand passenger seat.
2. Adjust the front right-hand
passenger seat full forward.
