taches the top part of a child restra int to special
anchorage points in the vehicle.
The purpose of the tether is to reduce the for­
ward movement of the child restraint in a crash,
in order to help reduce the risk of head injury
that could be caused by striking the vehicle inte­
rior .
F orward facing child restraints manufactured af­
ter September 1, 1999, are required by U.S. fed­
e ra l regulat ions to comply with new child head
movement performance requirements. These
Child safety
new performance requirements make a tether
necessary on most new chi ld safety seats .
