Attaching Safety Seats With Tether Straps General Instructions Some manufacturers make safety seats that include an upper tether strap that goes over the seatback and attaches to an anchoring point. Other manufacturers offer the tether strap as an accessory. Contact the manufacturer of your child safety seat for information about ordering a tether strap. You can attach a tether strap anchor bracket to the rear floor by using a tether anchor kit (613D74), available at no charge from any Ford dealership. Read and follow the instructions provided with the kit carefully for installation of the child tether strap anchor. Follow the child seat manufacturer's instructions to attach the tether strap to the tether bracket. Ford recommends placement of tethered safety seats in a rear seating position with the tether strap installed to the tether anchoring point as shown in the instructions provided with the child tether strap anchor kit. This vehicle has provisions to install a tether anchorage in the front, right hand and all second row seating positions. It is easiest to install a tether anchor at the second row, rear, center seating position. If the tethered seat is installed in the front seat, Ford recommends the center front seating position, with the tether strap secured to the center rear lap belt tongue or to the webbing of the buckled center rear lap belt behind the child safety seat. The front, right hand seating position may be used if it is the only seating position available. 57
