manufacturer's instructions.
"' Depress the spring catch on the hook and re ­
lease it from the anchorage.
(D Note
I f you leave the chi ld restraint with the tether

leather seats .
Using tether straps on rearward -facing
child restraints
Current ly, few rear-facing chi ld restraint systems

chi ld restraint system manufacturer's instruc­
tions carefully to determine how to properly in­
stall the tether.

System.
- T he inflating a irbag w ill hit the child safety
seat or infant carrie r wi th great force and

- If you mus t install a rearward facing child
safety seat on the front passenger seat be­
cause of exceptiona l circumstances and the
PA SSENGER AIR BAG OFF light does not
