mechanism and remove a child seat,
unlatch the buckle, unroute the seat
belt, and let the belt fully retract.

ANCHOR
A child seat with a tether can be
installed in any seating position in
the back seat, using one of the
anchorage points shown above.

installation, we recommend using a
tether whenever one is required or
available.
