Safety and security
Occupant safety
Top tether straps enable an additional
connection to be made between child
restraint systems secured with LATCH-type
anchors and rear seats. This can further
reduce the risk of injury.
A child’s risk of serious or fatal injuries is
significantly increased if the child restraints
are not properly secured in the vehicle
and/or the child is not properly secured in
the child restraint.
Children too big for a toddler restraint must
ride in seats using regular seat belts.
Position shoulder belt across chest and
shoulder, not face or neck. A booster seat
may be necessary to achieve proper seat
belt positioning for children over 41 lb

(18
kg) until they reach a height where a
lap/shoulder belt fits properly without a
booster.
X Guide the top tether strap between the
head restraint and top of the seat backrest.
The head restraint must be positioned such
that the top tether strap can pass freely
between the head restraint and the top of
the seat backrest.
X Make sure the top tether strap is not
twisted.
X Securely fasten hook 2, which is part of
the top tether strap, to anchorage ring 3.
When the child restraint is not in use,
remove it from the vehicle or secure it with
the seat belt to prevent the child restraint
from becoming a projectile in the event of
an accident.
