Top tether anchorsYour Volvo is equipped with child restraint top tether anchorages in the rear seat. They arelocated on the rear side of the backrests.
Child restraint anchorages
Securing a child seat
1. Place the child restraint on the rear seat.
2. Route the top tether strap under the head restraint and attach it to the anchor.
3. Attach lower tether straps to the lower ISO- FIX/LATCH anchors. If the child restraint is not equipped with lower tether straps, or therestraint is used in the center seating posi-tion, follow instructions for securing a childrestraint using the Automatic LockingRetractor seat belt (see Child restraints(p. 49)).
4. Firmly tension all straps. Refer also to the child seat manufacturer'sinstructions for information on securing the childseat.
NOTE
On models equipped with the optional cargo area cover, this cover should be removedbefore a child seat is attached to the childrestraint anchors.
WARNING
•
Always refer to the recommendations made by the child restraint manufacturer.
• Volvo recommends that the top tetheranchors be used when installing a for-ward-facing child restraint.
• Never route a top tether strap over thetop of the head restraint. The strapshould be routed beneath the headrestraint.
• Child restraint anchorages are designedto withstand only those loads imposed bycorrectly fitted child restraints. Under nocircumstances are they to be used foradult seat belts or harnesses. The ancho-rages are not able to withstand excessiveforces on them in the event of collision iffull harness seat belts or adult seat beltsare installed to them. An adult who uses abelt anchored in a child restraint anchor-age runs a great risk of suffering severeinjuries should a collision occur.
• Do not install rear speakers that requirethe removal of the top tether anchors orinterfere with the proper use of the toptether strap.

Integrated booster cushion – general information
The booster cushions are designed to raise the child higher so that the shoulder strap crossesover the child's collarbone, not over the neck.
Integrated two-stage booster cushion 2Volvo's optional integrated booster cushions are located in the outboard seating positions. Thesebooster cushions have been specially designedto help safeguard children in the rear seat. Theyshould be stowed (p. 62) (folded down into theseat cushion) when not in use. When using anintegrated booster cushion (p. 61), the childmust be secured with the vehicle's three-pointseat belt. If using a booster cushion does not result in proper positioning of the shoulder strap, then thechild should be placed in a properly secured childrestraint (see (p. 49) ). The shoulder belt mustnever be placed behind the child's back or underthe arm.
Correct seating position: the shoulder belt is across the collarbone
Incorrect seating position: the child's head is above the head restraint and the shoulder belt is not across thecollarbone
