Locate the correct anchor for the selected seating position. 2008 Milan (mln) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
Page 158 This type of child seat eliminates the need to use safety belts to attach the child seat. For forward-facing child seats, the tether strap must also be attached to the proper tether anchor.
