Anchor point locations
Anchor points are located under the rear
parcel shelf finisher.
To use attaching hardware for child re-
straints with top straps, follow these instruc-
tions carefully:
1.
Open the trunk and find the anchor point
nuts on the underside of the rear parcel
shelf. Thread a bolt (8.0 mm diameter,
1.25 pitch) up through the nut behind the
seating position where the child restraint
will be installed and use it to break through
the rear parcel shelf support material.There are pre-cut circles at each anchor
point location that should break away from
the shelf support material when pressure
is applied to them. Remove the bolt after
you feel the pre-cut circle separate from
the shelf support material.
2. Cut a small slit through the parcel shelf
fabric at the anchor point location. Reach
through the fabric with a tool such as a
pair of needle-nose pliers and remove
the pre-cut circle in the parcel shelf sup-
port material.
3. Install the bolt through the top strap hook
and into the anchor point nut.
4. Be sure to follow all of the instructions
that accompany the top strap attaching
hardware.
