restraint to the top tether anchorage as
shown in the diagram.
6. Remove slack in the tether strap accord-
ing to the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.
WARNING!
• The top tether anchorages are not vis-
ible until the gap panel is folded down.
WARNING!
Do not use the visible cargo tie down
hooks, located on the floor behind the
seats, to attach a child restraint tether
anchor.
• 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.
Transporting Pets

your pet. An unrestrained pet will be thrown
about and possibly injured, or injure a passen-
ger during panic braking or in a collision.
Pets should be restrained in the rear seat
(if equipped) in pet harnesses or pet carriers
that are secured by seat belts.
