support, except in cases where you are
installing a LATCH retained child safety seat in
the center position—in this case, run the strap
over the left hand side of the head support, as
shown. Tighten according to the child safety
seat manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE: To prevent the strap from moving from
side to side, the top of the head support deforms.
Testing a Child Safety Seat
Before seating a child, always make sure the
child safety seat is not loose:
1.
Hold the child safety seat by the belt path
and try to slide the safety seat from side to
side and front to back.
2.
If the seat moves more than one inch (2.5 cm),
it is too loose. Tighten the belt or reconnect
the LATCH retained child safety seat.
Once installed, test the security of the
installation before seating a child. Attempt to
twist the child safety seat from side to side and
try to pull it away from the seat, then check that
the anchors are still securely in place.
3. If you are unable to reduce slack, try a
different seat location or try another child
safety seat.
Attaching Upper Tether Straps
Warnings - Child Safety Seats
WARNING: Extreme hazard! Do not seat
a child on the front passenger seat even if
you are using a child safety seat. This seat has
an airbag in front of it. Even though Model S
disables this airbag when it detects a
lightweight passenger, do not rely on this
technology to protect your child.
WARNING: Do not use a forward facing
child safety seat until your child weighs
over 20 lbs (9 kg) and can sit independently. Up
to the age of two, a child's spine and neck are
not sufficiently developed to avoid injury in a
frontal impact.
WARNING: Do not allow a baby or infant
to be held on a lap. All children should be
restrained in an appropriate child safety seat at
all times.
WARNING: To ensure children are safely
seated, follow all instructions provided in
this document and by the manufacturer of the
child safety seat.
WARNING: Children should ride in a rear
facing child safety seat using the seat’s
integrated 5-point harness for as long as
possible.
If an upper tether strap is provided, attach its
hook to the anchor point located on the back of
the rear seats. Always position the strap so that
it runs over the center of the Model S head
