Other LATCH-compatible seats
have a flexible-type connector as
shown above.
Whatever type you have, follow
the child seat maker’s instructions
for adjusting or tightening the fit. Lift
the head restraint (see page
), then route the tether strap
through the legs of the head
restraint and over the seat-back,
making sure the strap is not
twisted.
Attach the tether strap hook to the
tether anchor, then tighten the
strap as instructed by the child
seat maker. Push and pull the child seat
f orward and f rom side-to-side to
verify that it is secure.

A child seat with a tether can be
installed in any seating position in
the back seat, using the anchorage
points shown above.
Since a tether can provide additional
security to the lap/shoulder belt
installation, we recommend using a
te ther whenever one is required or
available. After p
roperly securing the child
seat (see page ), route the
tether strap over the seat-back.
Followsteps2and3fromthe
previous column.
After
properly securing the child
seat (see page ), lift the head
restraint, then route the tether
strap over the seat-back and
through the head restraint legs.
Lift the cover, then attach the
tether strap hook to the anchor,
making sure the strap is not
twisted.
Tighten the strap according to the
seat maker’s instructions.
