ANCHORAGE POINT
Locate the anchorage point behind the rear seating position.
(consult the car owners handbook for the location of the
anchorage point). The anchorage point should be directly
behind and central to the restraint. Remove thread plug from
the parcel shelf/floor/roof, etc. and install anchor bolt and
fitting as shown in Fig 1.
CAUTION: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN ANCHOR BOLT.
OVERTIGHTENING MAY FRACTURE OR BREAK BOLT.
MAXIMUM TORQUE IS 20 Nm (14.75 ft.lb.)
Note: Minimum of five full turns of anchor bolt is required
before tightening force is applied.

ANCHORAGE POINTS
For Sedans only - Drill 9mm diameter hole in the parcel shelf
on the centre line of the seating position as shown in Fig 3.
Before drilling the hole, check the underside for accessibility.
Install the anchor bolt as shown in Fig 2.
For vehicles other than Sedans - In Australia, consult your
nearest child restraint fitting station or traffic authority for
vehicle inspection to find the best, correct position for
the placement of the anchorage point, and for the correct
attachment bolt length and use of spacers. In New Zealand,
consult the agent for the vehicle.
Note to Queensland purchasers: The installation of anchorage
points must be approved by authorised officers appointed by
Queensland Transport. Authorised officers can be sourced
from all Queensland Transport Customer Service and
Queensland Ambulance Service Centres.
