Your car has three tether anchorage
points under the rear window f or
securing a tether-style child seat to
the car.
Since a tether can provide additional
security, we recommend using a
tether whenever one is required or
available. (Tethers are required in
Canada.)The tether anchorage points are
located under plastic covers. Pivot
the cover backward to access the
anchorage point.
To use either outside anchorage
point, lif t the rear head restraint,
then route the tether strap over the
seat-back between the legs of the
head restraint.
