The top tether anchorages in this vehicle
are tether strap loops located between
the rear glass and the back of the rear
seat. There is a tether strap loop located
behind each seating position. Follow the steps
below to attach the tether strap of the child
restraint.
Right Or Left Outboard Seats:
1. Reach between the rear seat and rear glass to access the tether strap loop.
2. Place a child restraint on the seat and adjust the tether strap so that it will reach over the
seat back, through the space between the
head restraint and the seat back, through the
tether strap loop behind the seat and over to
the tether strap loop behind the center seat.
3. Pass the tether strap hook through the space between the head restraint and the seat back
behind the child seat, through the tether strap
loop behind the seat and over to the center
tether strap loop.

4. Attach the hook to the center tether strap loop (see diagram). Tighten the tether strap
according to the child seat manufacturer’s
instructions.

NOTE:If there are child seats in both of the outboard (left
and right) seating positions, the tether strap hooks
of both child seats should be connected to the
center tether strap loop. This is the correct way to
tether two outboard child seats.
Center Seat:
1. Reach between the rear seat and rear glass to access the tether strap loop.

2. Place a child restraint on the seat and adjust the tether strap so that it will reach over the
seat back and headrest, through the tether
strap loop behind the seat and over to the
tether strap loop behind either the right or left
outboard seat.

3. Pass the tether strap hook over the headrest behind the child seat, through the tether strap
loop behind the seat and over to the right or
left outboard tether strap loop.

4. Attach the hook to the outboard tether strap loop (see diagram). Tighten the tether strap
according to the child seat manufacturer’s
instructions.

Attached To Outboard Tether Strap Loop
Installing Three Child Restraints:
1. Place a child restraint on each outboard rear seat. Route the tether straps following the
directions for right and left seating positions,
above.
2. Attach both hooks to the center tether strap loop, but do not tighten the straps yet.
3. Place a child restraint on the center rear seat. Route the tether strap following the directions
for the center seating position, above.
4. Attach the hook to the outboard tether strap loop.

5. Tighten the tether straps according to the child seat manufacturer’s instructions, tightening
the right and left tether straps before the
center tether strap.
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 seatbacks as
you remove slack in the strap.

460SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
TIRE ROTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Tires on the front and rear axles of vehicles
operate at different loads and perform different
steering, driving, and braking functions. For these
reasons, they wear at unequal rates.
These effects can be reduced by timely rotation of
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.
For the proper maintenance intervals Úpage 394.
More frequent rotation is permissible if desired.
The reasons for any rapid or unusual wear should
be corrected prior to rotation being performed. The suggested rotation method is the “rearward
cross” shown in the following diagram. This
rotation pattern does not apply to some directional
tires that must not be reversed.
Tire Rotation (Rearward Cross)
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
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 one 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.
Observe the traction device manufacturer’s
instructions on the method of installation,
operating speed, and conditions for use.
Always use the suggested operating speed of
the device manufacturer’s if it is less than
30 mph (48 km/h).
Do not use traction devices on a compact
spare tire.
CAUTION!
