A tether anchorage point is provided behind
the passenger seat. A child seat with a tether
can be installed, so long as the base of the

restraint legs. Make sure the strap is not twisted.
2. Secure the tether strap hook onto the anchor.

adequately protect a child in a crash and may cause
injury to the child or another vehicle occupant.
To deactivate a lockable retractor, release the buckle
and allow the seat belt to wind up all the way.
