TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD
RESTRAINT
If your child restraint has a top tether strap,
it must be secured to the provided anchor
point. Secure the child restraint with a seat
belt. Secure the top tether strap to the
anchor bracket. Tighten the strap according
to manufacturer instructions to remove any
slack.
WARNING
cChild restraint anchor points are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstances is
it to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses.
Anchor point locations
Anchor points are located under the rear
window. King Cab vehicles will only have
the outer anchor point. Crew Cab vehicles
will have all three anchor points.
If you have any questions when install-
ing a top strap child restraint, consult
your NISSAN dealer for details.
