vehicle, refer to the summary table. To secure the child seat to the TOP TETHER
:


- remove and stow the head restraint before
installing the child seat on the seat (refit it
once the child seat has been removed),

- pass the upper strap of the child seat
behind the seat backrest, between the
apertures for the head restraint rods,
