3-34 Seats and Restraints
Refer to your child restraint
instructions and see Securing Child
Restraints on page 3 37 for
instructions on securing your child
restraint using the vehicle's safety
belts.
In order to use the top tether
anchors in your vehicle, you need a
child restraint equipped with a top
tether. The child restraint
manufacturer will provide you with
instructions on how to use the child
restraint and its top tether. The
following explains how to attach a
child restraint with the top tether in
your vehicle.
A top tether (A, C) anchors the top
of the child restraint to the vehicle.
A top tether anchor is built into the
vehicle. The top tether
attachment (B) on the child restraint
connects to the top tether anchor in
the vehicle in order to reduce the
forward movement and rotation of
the child restraint during driving or in
a crash.
Your child restraint may have a
single tether (A) or a dual tether (C).
Either will have a single
attachment (B) to secure the top
tether to the anchor.
Some top tether-equipped child
restraints are designed for use with
or without the top tether being
attached. Others require the top
tether always to be attached.
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have
a top tether, and that the tether be
attached. Be sure to read and follow
the instructions for your child
restraint.
According to accident statistics,
children and infants are safer when
properly restrained in a child
restraint system or infant restraint
system secured in a rear seating
position.
