When you install a LATCH system compatible child restraint to the lower anchor attachments, follow these steps: TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD RESTRAINT If your child restraint has a top tether strap, it must be secured to the anchor point provided behind its position. Tighten the tether strap according to the manufacturer's instructions to remove any slack. For best child restraint fit, see the child restraint installation instructions in this section and the child restraint manufacturer's instructions. WARNING Inspect the lower anchors by inserting your fingers into the lower anchor area and feeling to make sure there are no obstructions over the LATCH system anchors, such as seat belt webbing or seat cushion material. The child restraint will not be secured properly if the LATCH system anchors are obstructed. 1. To install the LATCH system compatible child restraint, insert the child restraint LATCH system anchor attachments into the anchor points on the seat. If the child restraint is equipped with a top tether, see "Top tether strap child restraint" later in this section for installation instructions. 2. After attaching the child restraint and before placing the child in it, use force to push the child restraint from side to side and tug it forward to make sure that the child restraint is securely held in place. It should not move more than 1 inch (25 mm). 3. Check to make sure that the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. WARNING ● Child restraint anchor points are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts or harnesses. ● A child restraint with a top tether should not be used in the front seat. Do not attempt to attach a tether strap to the rear tether anchor points from the front seat. First, secure the child restraint with the seat belt or the LATCH system (rear bench seat outboard positions only), as applicable. Adjust the rear bench seat head restraint to its highest position and route the top tether strap between the head restraint and the top of the seatback. Secure the child restraint with a seat belt. Secure the top tether strap to the anchor point which provides the straightest installation of the tether strap as shown later in this section.
