32 Child Safety Attach the tether strap only to the appropriate tether anchor as shown. The tether strap may not work properly if attached somewhere other than the correct tether anchor. Note: If you install a child seat with rigid LATCH attachments, and have attached the top tether strap to the proper top tether anchor, do not tighten the tether strap enough to lift the child seat off the vehicle seat cushion when the child is seated in it. Keep the tether strap just snug without lifting the front of the child seat. Keeping the child seat just touching the vehicle seat gives the best protection in a severe crash. Perform the following steps to install a child safety seat with tether anchors: Front passenger seating position You can attach the tether directly to the rear of the front seat. 1. Adjust the front passenger seat fully forward. 2. Route the child safety seat tether strap over the back of the front right-hand passenger seat as shown. 2013 Econoline (eco) Owners Guide gf, 3rd Printing, May 2013 USA (fus)
