SAFETY 153
Installing Child Restraints Using The Top
Tether Anchorage
1. Look behind the seating position where
you plan to install the child restraint to find
the tether anchorage. You may need to
move the seat forward to provide better
access to the tether anchorage. If there is
no top tether anchorage for that seating position, move the child restraint to
another position in the vehicle if one is
available.

2. R oute the tether strap to provide the most
d
irect path for the strap between the anchor
and the child seat. If your vehicle is
equipped with adjustable rear head
restraints, raise the head restraint, and
where possible, route the tether strap under
the head restraint and between the two
posts. If not possible, lower the head
restraint and pass the tether strap around
the outboard side of the head restraint.
3. A ttach the tether strap hook of the child
r
estraint to the top tether anchorage as
shown in the diagram. 4. R
emove slack in the tether strap according
t
o the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.

WARNING!
Do not attach a tether strap for a rear-facing
car seat to any location in front of the car
seat, including the seat frame or a tether
anchorage. Only attach the tether strap of a
rear-facing car seat to the tether anchorage
that is approved for that seating position,
located behind the top of the vehicle seat.
See the section “Lower Anchors and Tethers
for CHildren (LATCH) Restraint System” for the
location of approved tether anchorages in
your vehicle.
WARNING!
An incorrectly anchored tether strap could
lead to increased head motion and possible
injury to the child. Use only the anchorage
position directly behind the child seat to
secure a child restraint top tether strap.
If your vehicle is equipped with a split rear
seat, make sure the tether strap does not
slip into the opening between the seat -
backs as you remove slack in the strap.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 251
TIRE ROTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
The tires on the front and rear of your vehicle
operate at different loads and perform different
steering, handling, and braking functions.
For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates.
These effects can be reduced by timely rotation
o f
tires. The benefits of rotation are especially
worthwhile with aggressive tread designs such
as those on all season type tires. Rotation will
increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow
and wet traction levels, and contribute to a
smooth, quiet ride.
Refer to the “Maintenance Plan” for the proper
m a
intenance intervals. The reasons for any
rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior
to rotation being performed.
The suggested Front Wheel Drive (FWD) rotation
m e
thod is the “forward cross” shown in the
following diagram. This rotation pattern does
not apply to some directional tires that must not
be reversed.

UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADES
The following tire grading categories
were established by the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The specific grade rating assigned by the
tire's manufacturer in each category is
shown on the sidewall of the tires on
your vehicle.
All passenger vehicle tires must conform
to
Federal safety requirements in
addition to these grades.
TREADWEAR
The Treadwear grade is a comparative
rating, based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear
on
e and one-half times as well on the
government course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires depends
upon the actual conditions of their use,
however, and may depart significantly from
the norm due to variations in driving habits,
service practices, and differences in road
characteristics and climate.
TRACTION GRADES
The Traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. These grades
represent the tire's ability to stop on
wet pavement, as measured under
co
ntrolled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of asphalt and
concrete. A tire marked C may have poor
traction performance.

REMOTE CONTROL STORAGE
The video screen comes with a built-in storage
compartment for the remote control which is
accessible when the screen is opened. To
remove the remote, use your index finger to pull
and rotate the remote towards you. Do not try to
pull the remote straight down as it will be very
difficult to remove. To return the remote back

remote into the two retaining clips first, and
then rotate the remote back up into the other
two retaining clips until it snaps back into
position.
