selected rear seating position. To
install a tethered child seat in the

back down so that you can reach
around the back of the left seat with
your left hand to attach the tether
hook onto the anchor.
•You may need to pull the seatback forward to access the tether
anchors. Make sure the seat is locked in the upright position before
installing the child seat. Refer to theFolding Down The Rear Seats
section in this chapter for information on how to operate the rear

5. Clip the tether strap to the
anchor and return the seat back to
its locked position. For the Pioneer
Edition fixed left rear seat, clip the
tether hook onto the anchor bar
with the hook toward the rear of the
vehicle.
If the tether strap is clipped
incorrectly, the child safety
seat may not be retained properly
in the event of a collision.
6. Refer to theInstalling child safety seats in combination lap and
shoulder belt seating positionssection of this chapter for further
instructions to secure the child safety seat.
7. Tighten the child safety seat tether strap according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
To unhook the tether strap, unfasten the seat belts securing the child
seat and put some slack into the tether strap. Tip the seat back forward
enough so that you can reach behind the seat and unhook the tether
hook. For the Pioneer Edition fixed left rear seat, fold the other seat
back down so that you can reach around the side of the left seat back
with your left hand to unclip the tether hook.
If the safety seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child
being injured in a collision greatly increases.
