Seating and safety restraints Third row seat and tether anchorage hardware The tether has to be attached to the anchorage locations on the floor behind the third row seating position (third row seat only) with a tether anchorage hardware kit. Tether anchorage hardware kits (part number 613D20) including instructions, may be obtained at no charge from any Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer. All vehicles built for sale in Canada include a tether anchor hardware kit. Be sure to follow the child safety seat manufacturer's instructions. To gain access to the anchoring bolt, cut through the U-shaped tether location outlines on the carpet of the luggage area. Remove the bolt that is currently in the anchor location. Tighten the anchor according to specifications. Otherwise, the safety seat may not be properly secured and the child may be injured in a sudden stop or collision. To properly use child safety tethers in the 3rd row seat position, REMOVE THE PARCEL SHELF and tether child safety seat to the tether anchor located on the floor behind the 3rd row seat. 146
