Position the top tether strap over the top of the seat back 1 and secure it to the tether anchor bracket that provides the straightest installation. Tighten the tether strap according to the manufacturer's instructions to remove any slack.

Always replace it and adjust properly when top tether is no longer in use. If your child restraint has a top tether strap, it must be secured to the anchor point provided behind its position.
