THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 67 rearward-facing infant restraints will also be equipped with a tether strap with a hook and means for adjusting the tension in the strap. In general, you will first loosen the adjusters on the lower and tether straps so that you can more easily attach the hook or connector to the lower and tether anchorages. The tether strap should be routed under the center of the head restraint and attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the seatback. Then tighten all three straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the seat. Rear Seat Tether Anchors 2 Not all child restraint systems will be installed as we have described here. Again, carefully follow the instructions that come with the child restraint system. NOTE: If your child restraint seat is not LATCH compatible, install the restraint using the vehicle seat belts.
