THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
You will first loosen the adjusters on the lower strap s and
on the tether strap so that you can more easily attach the
hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages. Next
attach the lower hooks or connectors over the top of the
anchorage bars, pushing asid e the seat cover material.
Then lift the tether anchorage cover directly behind the
seat where you are placing the child restraint and attach
the tether strap to the anchorage, being carefu l to rou te
the tether strap to provid e the most direct path betw een
the anchor and the child restraint. If you r vehicle is
equ ipped with adjustable rear head restraints, raise the
head restraint and , where possible, rou te the tether strap
und er the head restraint and betw een the two posts. If
not possible, lower the head restraint and rou te the tether
strap arou nd the outboard side of the head restraint.
Finally, tighten all three strap s as you push the child
restraint rearw ard and downw ard into the seat, rem ov-
ing slack in the strap s accord ing to the child restraint

belt
The passenger seat belts are equ ipped with cinching latch
plates which are designed to keep the lap portion tight
arou nd the child restraint so that it is not necessary to use
a locking clip. Pulling up on the shou lder portion of the
lap/ shou lder belt will tighten the belt. The cinching latch
plate will keep the belt tight, how ever, any seat belt
system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasion-
ally and pull it tight if necessary.
