Anchorage” system

Top-tether anchorages for Child
Restraint Systems are located on the
rear of the seatback.
OAC3039012TU
1. Route the Child Restraint System
seat strap over the seatback.
For vehicles with adjustable head
restraint, route the tether strap
under the head restraint and
between the head restraint posts,
otherwise route the tether strap
over the top of the seatback.
2. Connect the top-tether to the top-
tether anchorage, then tighten the
top-tether according to the instruc-
tions of your Child Restraint
System’s manufacturer to firmly
attach the Child Restraint System
to the seat.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when installing the top-tether:
‡ Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your
Child Restraint System.
‡ NEVER attach more than one
Child Restraint System to a sin-
gle ISOFIX top-tether anchorage.
This could cause the anchorage
or attachment to come loose or
break.
‡ Do not attach the top-tether to
anything other than the correct
top-tether anchorage. It may not
work properly if attached to
something else.
‡ Child Restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
Child Restraint System.
Under no circumstances are they
to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehi-
cle.
