child seat forward-facing. Using the tether will improve
the stability of your child seat and reduce the risk of
injury.
• Attach the tether only to tether anchors identified by
your vehicle manufacturer as tether anchorage points.
Only use the designated tether anchor for each seating
position.
• If your vehicle does not currently have a tether anchor
attachment, refer to your vehicle owner's manual or
contact your vehicle man u fac tur er for assistance. DO
NOT modify your vehicle without advice from your
vehicle manufacturer.
• Store the tether in the pouch on the back of the child
seat when not in use. DO NOT install the child seat with
the tether attached to the carry clip.
Tether anchor locations vary from
vehicle to vehicle. Check your
vehicle owner's manual and look for
the tether anchor symbol shown in

the top tether anchor points are
located in your vehicle.
