Top tether anchorage points
Your vehicle is equipped with child restraint top tether anchorages in all second row seatpositions (second-row seats only in 7-seatmodels).
Using the top tether anchorages
• Place the child restraint on the rear seat.
• Route the top tether strap under the head restraint and fasten its attachment to theanchorage.
WARNING
Be sure to fasten the child tether attach- ment correctly to the anchor. If it is notcorrectly fastened, the child seat may notbe properly restrained in the event of acollision.
•Firmly tension the top tether strap according to the child restraint manufac-turer's instructions. Tension the top tetherstrap only after the lower anchor straps orthe seat belt have been firmly tensioned.
For securing the child restraint to ISOFIX/ LATCH lower anchors,see page 49.
WARNING
• Always refer to the recommendations made by the child restraint manufac-turer.
• Volvo recommends that the top tetheranchors be used when installing a for-ward-facing child restraint.
• Never route a top tether strap over thetop or around the head restraint. Itshould always be routed under thehead restraint.
• Child restraint anchorages aredesigned to withstand only thoseloads imposed by correctly fitted childrestraints. Under no circumstances arethey to be used for adult seat belts orharnesses. The anchorages are notable to withstand excessive forces onthem in the event of collision if full har-ness seat belts or adult seat belts areinstalled to them. An adult who uses abelt anchored in a child restraintanchorage runs a great risk of suffer-ing severe injuries should a collisionoccur.
• Do not install rear speakers thatrequire the removal of the top tetheranchors or interfere with the properuse of the top tether strap.
