anchors. If the child restraint
does not have lower
attachments or the desired seating position does not have
lower anchors, secure the child
restraint with the top tether and
the seat belts. Refer to the

restraint, adjust the head
restraint upward.
1.3. Attach and tighten the lower attachments on the
child restraint to the lower
anchors.
